The Ill-Omen Stars streak across the sky, the Dragon River swells, and Pumpkin Humongous grows restless! THIS IS YOUR TIME, BEACON!

Beacon: Koronil is live on Kickstarter! This Halloween-themed expansion for the Beacon TTRPG features a new setting created by @superdracula.bsky.social and a TON of new game materials and rules like the Kettle Mage class, Reaper variant job, and Arachnid boss. www.kickstarter.com/projects/pir...

Remembering that NPR piece about how young Latino Republicans don't know why other Latinos won't join up. And, God, I'm exhausted. I feel like I've spent a lot of energy deprogramming everyone I could but the program is self-perpetuating.

I wish I had realized I had a chronic pain condition, and a serious disability earlier in my life. If for no other reason than to beat myself up less about "productivity" and "work ethic".

I feel like we don’t talk about millennials in particular, hitting our 40s - in earlier generations many of us would be reaching the peak of our careers, but because of disaster after disaster, locust after locust eating our industries, many of us are on our 3rd or 4th fresh start.

Oh hey! Saw a tweet long ago begging a journo to look into why trying to buy quality video game merch sucks shit. So I did that.

It sucks trying to buy official merch and genAI is only making it worse. https://kotaku.com/why-does-trying-to-buy-a-video-game-t-shirt-suck-so-much-2000730574

If, instead of the ubiquitous industry leader, D&D was a little Indy darling, I think everyone would praise The Bard for its whimsical take on magic and music. As it is, it feels like a strangely warping presence, like "look, a new setting! Oh, it has bards? ...why?"

Meme gold.

A truck carrying our comics was in an accident. No one was hurt, but the comics. 🌲 1 📚 0 Bad news: These titles will not arrive for OSD: #EventHorizonInferno 5, #SonicxGodzilla 2, #StarTrek60th Anniversary, & #TMNTJourneys 13. Good news: They're in stores 9/9. Thanks for your patience.

The thing with fascists too, is that they all see this happen and they don’t think “what if this happens to me?” They all think they’re above it, the smartest guy in the room.

The Milo stuff is the perfect picture of fascism. You think you're protected because you go as big as you can on racism, you spend years harassing the movement's perceived enemies, you even disavow your own sexuality. They'll still throw you in a cage over the tiniest disagreement already forgotten.

English speakers don’t know how good they have it that “Left” starts with an L so you can make an L with your index and thumb and the one that is oriented correctly is the left one. In spanish it starts with an “i”, that’s useless, every finger is an i.

3) Biology is at the centre of a BUNCH of current global political debates. Not just racism and eugenics, but also gender essentialism, blood-and-soil nativism, vaccine rejectionism, anti-modern fad diets, climate change, environmentalism, etc. Biological literacy is CRITICAL to being a good citizen

Why does the world treat something so simple as if it were optional? It is the baseline of being human ♡ Chiitan will keep raising their voice.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
