Have you ever tried to peel a grape? #Sketchbook USA is in bad shape but life must go on. We have to laugh a little, dream a little, and draw stupid things. We can't stop. Fight them all the way and laugh as much as you can. Fuckers are outnumbered by a huge margin, and it will only grow. Fuck 'em.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

The Blind Guardian from #BlackPuddingZine issue 2. For these classes I tended to give them little abilities that worked within B/X, tweaking or breaking certain little rules and using what was there to create something new. Like this one stating that you attack like a MU when using the wrong weapon.

You know, they never stop at one group. Never. They come for one, they (eventually) come for all. They start with the smallest because they know the others will go about their business, thinking it will never happen to them. We should all be thinking about this. Because they will get to you.

Besides the bad faith and epic corruption evidenced by the letter to @robertgarcia.bsky.social from this Trump waterboy, it is “whom you call a dick,” not “who you call a dick.” Grammar counts, you unctuous toady of the wannabe mob boss WHOM you serve.

I'm in remission for cancer. During treatment, my oncologist wanted me to get liquid chemo. That meant getting an infusion port. My health insurance approved surgery for the port. After I got it, that insurance DENIED coverage for the liquid chemo. This has to change. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/h...

Friday morning is my chance to reflect--take stock of my week and prepare for the next. This morning I've been reflecting on magic--not fantasy magic, but the real magic that we have the capacity to do each day. That magic where, with a careful placed word or gesture, we can change the world.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Utopia's don't and won't ever exist. But we should always be laying the groundwork for a better world. If it helps us, great. But even if we don't get to see the results of our labors, our descendants inherit the benefits, and that's the true point.

Working on #Doomslakers, the Black Pudding #TTRPG, which is divorced from D&D. But I keep slipping into old habits of language and assumption, such as feeling the need to state things like a monster's attack as an "action". But I don't need to do that. This game isn't structured quite like that. 1/3

Just so it's clear, DeJoy wanted the Post Office to look competent so he could sell it off as part of the privatization plans, but Trump really just wanted to destroy it wholesale, so now DeJoy is on the outs because he was trying to do what Trump said he wanted, not what he actually wanted.

I've been seeing lots of super compelling videos of park rangers and federal lawyers and other federal workers telling their stories. Talking about what they did at their job, how it helped the American people, and why they want to keep doing those jobs. This is the way.
