Instrumental reason is when you charge your guests for a kitchen, but then provide zero utensils, cookware, cleaning supplies, or even a kettle. Safe in the knowledge that your kitchen has too many barriers to entry to use, you can be assured it will not be used. Clean & ready for the next mark.

Every therapist in the country rn is witnessing the psychic fallout of so many US citizens watching the light of their children's futures and their own be snuffed out by reckless politics. Activities, hobbies, and friends help shield us from what we experience when we stop for the news.

10 years ago, I had the fortune of playing Tony the DJ in one of the best larps ever written, Just A Little Lovin, during the 2nd Danish run of the game. My documentation of that experience is still around for those who are curious: guyintheblackhat.com/2015/07/15/l...

This is very good. I have read a lot of investor reports for big game companies over the past few years, and it is very clear that the key measurement of success in all entertainment is time: how much time of yours can a company capture, and how efficiently can they do it?

"Most of the degrees with low numbers of recipients are in the humanities and languages. Jewish Studies, Classical Studies and multiple language departments could lose their main offerings." Language depts provide services to the ENTIRE university, not just their majors, but that's beside the point

Bill Moyers was an absolute staple of my childhood, someone whose reporting revealed both America's promise and its many, many blindspots. A model for all those of us seeking a refuge in reason and clarity.

"Your band is an overnight success. What you’re adoring fans don’t know is how you got here; a Faustian bargain with a dark power, a grave cost for your great success. Soak in the adoration, the special treatment, the finest things, and try and try to convince yourself this is all worth it."

"The interesting thing about German grammar is that it is quite “frontloaded”. This means that learners will encounter many of those challenging new concepts right at the beginning. You need to understand these basics ... to produce even quite simple sentences." theconversation.com/learning-ger...

The former Diamond Comics is trying to legally steal publishers stock that's sitting with them. Impacted? Cryptozoic, Goodman Games, Green Ronin, Paizo, S7 Games, and pretty much every comic-book company. The peak-capitalism BS is Bankruptcy 101 from what I understand.

AI is reshaping Russia’s war against Ukraine—guiding drones, targeting missiles, and spreading deepfakes. Ukraine is using AI to strike back, save lives, and rebuild. The battlefield is now digital.

Here is my fruit: Because of social dynamics, how fun a TTRPG isn't that good of a metric of the quality of a game; you can have fun with the right people and any game. A better way to determine a game's quality: How consistently does it honor what it promises?

The genie, it's out of the bottle, and no, don't try to put the genie back into the bottle, even though the genie is incredibly absurd, and OH LOOK here come the Professional Genie Unbottlers, who somehow think it will be them who "tames" it. Nah, bro: this genie will eat you too.
