Wow, that's... A LOT of new followers. Welcome! I'm a non-binary pro-DM who works with a lot of kids and believes that:
-Trans rights are human rights (feel like that should be obvious)
-Black lives matter!
-Rind to the Seed... (Free Palestine)
-Native peoples must be heard (and paid back rent)

I really hate asking this, esp before the holiday, but I’m having an emergency. My filling broke and I have a painful abscess that needs immediate care. I don’t have dental insurance and could really use a hand. I’m so sorry to ask. I can barely eat or sleep. #mutualaid

I'll support AI Labor, once the 13th Amendment applies to it. When it complains about labor conditions, when it is compensated for *its* work, then I'll support AI labor, including in its probably struggles against exploitation.

AI Creators are either thieves or exploiters, passing off others work.

Happiness to all returning from a hopefully wondrous time at PAXU. Miss seeing friends there, and hope one day the finances will allow me to return.

Thank you to everyone who has been sharing.

Currently I’m overdue on my electric bill and looking to be short on rent - in total between the two, about $500.

I have my commissions open, startplaying games and hate to ask for help.

Any help is appreciated.

I admit that it am fucked up over the WH thing but it keeps popping up in my mind just how much private money he was able to raise and how much fucking good that money could do especially during a shutdown.

Each of these billionaires has to know it is “on sight” with the majority of the public.

This is a reminder that Highlights published a book of the letters they’ve received from children over the years. Every piece of mail they received was answered. One of my fav books.

There are people who claim adults don't like pumpkin patches, and that those are just for kids.

Those people are wrong.

I really don't know how anyone could claim Irish ancestry or identity and accept what the UN has certified as a man-made famine happening in Gaza.

OK but, hear me out:

-The memory of this place is both fleeting and everlasting

Farewell sweet pup. You were the endless giver of awful kisses, the bandit of the countertops, and an incessant cuddler. You were wonderful with and to my children, and I don't know how they'll manage you gone.

Be at peace now. I'll see you across the rainbow bridge.

I would love to do a vocal/voice jam again. No score. No lyrics. Just a whole group of people harmonizing and reharmonizing. I miss that.

Hello BlueSky, yes it was my bday! But today I’m in a tough spot.

After waiting on freelance pay that hasn’t come, my landlord is threatening me with eviction if I don’t get caught up in two days.

If you can I’d really appreciate the support. Anything helps. #mutualaid

First they came for the Transgender
And I did not speak out
Because I was not Transgender
Then they came for the Immigrants
And I did not speak out
Because I was not an Immigrant
Then they came for Democrat Cities
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Democrat from the City,

🤔Seems like every US city with a significant Black population will get its own very expensive and completely unnecessary martial law occupation under this administration.

LA was first. DC is next.

I'm not even going to do another thread about how this doesn't decrease crime. You already know.

D.C. is not a dangerous city.

Nor is L.A.

The only danger is the Trump regime and its secret police force—ICE.

They are committing crimes.
They are terrorizing communities.
They are tearing families apart.
They are kidnapping people.

They are the problem.

And we the people are done with them.

Some days I can't get the energy to do anything.

Some days, I cook.

This is not caused primarily by "screen time".

It's been caused by the mass eradication of third places for young people in basically every city over the past three decades - and a society that's hostile to the concept of teens socialising in public spaces.

‘Worrying’ levels of screen time means young people losing confidence to socialise in person, minister warns – UK politics live
Culture secretary Lisa Nandy says ‘majority of young people spend all, or almost all, of their free time alone in their bedrooms, online’

Personal pet peeve: "Don't speak to me in that tone."/"You better get that bass out your voice."

I'm. A. Baritone. My voice has bass in it. Asking me to cover that because society has decided tenor=good? Is asking me to take my voice out of my voice.

I'm still looking to submit this!

For clarity, I seek a panel of...
- diverse voices - >50% BIPOC
- current/recent K-12 educators
- active facilitators of TTRPGs for young folks
- grownups of young folks who benefit from TTRPGs

If you fit, reach out. If not, please amplify. Thanks!
Educators in the TTRPG Space: anyone interested in cooking up a panel for PAXU on how storytelling in RPGs can promote critical thinking and SEL (social-emotional learning) and how to help trusted adults facilitate that for young people?
