The feeling is mutual 💕

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

@bombclancy.bsky.social hiiii! Love your tiktoks, your discord link is expired though. 💜

How do *you* take it when someone leaves your TTRPG? I find it hard not to take it personally, even though I know I shouldn't. I realize people leave games for all kinds of reasons. But I feel like it's a missed opportunity to hear someone out, work out a compromise instead of them quitting.

I think one of the many barriers to getting people to play D&D these days is the onboarding tasks. Go to D&D Beyond, make a character (itself a huge task), take the Lines & Veils survey, connect to the VTT, read the wiki. Whew. It is a lot taken all at once.

@backerkit.com Please get with the program and include Bluesky as one of the options so we can skeet with pride that we backed something. I just backed @lackingceremony.bsky.social 's kickstarter "Going For Broke" and had to do it all manually :)

I really don't want to give money to any restaurant who wouldn't serve someone because of their race, color, creed, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender presentation. If they seat you and rush you out, or put you in the back, or just refuse to serve. That place loses my business.

The Dumbest of Trade Wars enacted by the Dumbest Administration for these Dumbest of Times.

Every single bad and evil thing that happens in the USA is Donald Trump and the GOP’s fault. Everything can and must be blamed on them. We are at war with a murderous death cult. Act accordingly.

Everything is dumb and terrible, and it's gonna be dumb and terrible for a while. It’s important to do what you can to make it less dumb and terrible, and it's important to find a way make some contentment for yourself in spite of everything being dumb and terrible.

This. The fact that his promises were blustery nonsense doesn't make it *better* that they don't hold up. That's not an extenuating circumstance! That's another thing to hold against him!

The truth of January 6th can't be erased. Watch the pardoned criminals brutally attacking police inside the Capitol and see what some call 'patriotism.' No spin, just facts. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/revisiting...

Trump's FTC chair Andrew Ferguson, whose first act was to "end DEI" at the agency, has shut down public comments on predatory pricing and other shady corporate tactics. The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder.

In a capitalist system one of our only weapons is our capital. I don’t need to shop at Target any more.

Game update! We are knee deep in plot now. I can't believe all the crap that's going on. There's the gang war, the slavers, and the missing kids, the Raven cleric, and oh yeah, finding the rest of the gang's hideouts. Definitely a pot that is cooking now. I can afford to resolve a few threads!

‘skekSil The Chamberlain’ is now available through @everydayorig! I had so much fun with him, and loved the chance to make him extra fancy. The Chamberlain is looking for permanent accommodations, will you trust him to haunt your halls? Hmmmmmmmmm? Link below. #thedarkcrystal #fanart #skeksis

I’ve been forced to adopt a one-strike system of instant blocking anyone whose vibes are terrible on their very first interaction right out of the gate, but I’m still so twitter-pilled that I always get a brief ping of anxiety that it will just send them to their alt to tell everyone I’m a bitch

Have you ever been on a podcast? I'm recording a podcast tomorrow! --I'm guesting on the podcast "Skip to the Good Part!" #romancelandia #romanceauthor skiptothegoodpart.buzzsprout.com/2004416

I am also baffled by this. I hate it when people interrupt me and therefore I try to avoid doing it to other people, I thought this was more universally accepted than it apparently is

I made the chonkiest seal and he needs your approval.

Good morning Bluesky, now say it back

Live your life so that when you die, some joyless schmuck is annoyed that his entire social media feed is a wall of people's posts talking about how much you and your work meant to them

I am really trying to be happy happy on here but unfortunately I have some menopausal shenanigans happening inside my body and I might get a wee bit 🗡️🗡️. It isn't as bad as it was last year but yikes I need to have a warning label. Oooh is there a menopause label for Bluesky? That would be neat.

Congress & Biden right now as the TikTok ban looms
