Need to introduce more people to the joys of ttrpgs

Regarding this thread, it’s now a complete, one page piece with elaborations on my write.as. write.as/czedwards/we...

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

The bad news is that Chuck Schumer is not up for re-election until 2028. The good news is that he can resign right now—in fact, he should do that twice.

Samsung's approach to swipe typing is, frankly, abysmal. Just trying to swipe out 'the' most often results in YNt. And they can't figure out a consistent approach to spaces.😵‍💫

"Nominating Merrick Garland" -- ancient, pre-Imperium proverb, for "refusing to do what must be done"

Right. Here's your to-do list for the next two months to put you in the best possible position to survive what's coming: 1. Renew your passport (or apply for a passport) this week even if it is not expiring in the next four years. Renewing early will give you the maximum 10-year validity period.

Ugh. I'm way overdue.
