We've spent weeks trying to plan a day to get together and play TTRPGs, then didn't. Being an adult is hard.

So, there’s a band that most people call a one-hit-wonder, but they’re not. And we made a game based on their music, but only loosely. Really, you don’t need to know anything about the band to like the game. It’s a 90s-noir indie thing with gritty action and drama, and maybe some supernatural stuff.

The Odyssey cost $250 million to make. Guess who got a tax break worth more than 30x that last year? Amazon—after firing 30,000 workers.

Dismantling the CDC to kill Graham with an unknown virus in order to distract from McConnell’s death so that a Democrat can’t replace him is the evidence we needed that Trump really is playing 4D chess! He got us this time!

Our world sucks because extreme wealth and extreme privilege is analogous to superpowers. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos and Jeffrey Epstein are as immune to consequences as Homelander … and so they behave like monsters. We’re all living in the consequences of that.

People are celebrating Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi being fired — rightly so, as they're terrible — but I also fear that the second- and soon to be third-choice picks will be worse. Trump does not have a deep bench for competency and they are all driven by similarly evil values.
