On the one hand, I really hate takes that equate politics with sports, but on the other, I really want to shout that Denny Hoskins has been eliminated from playoff contention.

The Supreme Court rules that Missouri's 2022 map will be in effect during the general election.

20 year old me was good at: calculus, programming, and digital circuit design. He knew jack shit about literally anything else in the world. He voted for Ross Perot, for Christ's sake.

Combination of both... but 20 year old me was SUPER dumb. I really have no respect for his opinion.

Yeah, I can see that. In SWTOR I always treated it as a passive background thing, but I'm sure there were completionist folks who ground out every last reward.

Dan Crank @danno.org · 13/09/2026

Yeah, I think it's a good system. Some of the rewards (they're the ones I remember because they're the ones I picked) are QoL perks like increased bank capacity and reduced quick-travel cooldown.

SWTOR has something very similar to this.

The Missouri Supreme Court ordered Republican Secretary of State Denny Hoskins to appear in person Thursday and explain why he should not be held in contempt for directing election officials to use a congressional map the court has barred him from implementing. #moleg #mogov

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh rejected Missouri Republicans appeal to salvage a congressional district map favoring the GOP.

Whichever way this ends up, I hope somebody calculates the election results using both maps. Because the 7-1 map by definition is making the "safe Republican" districts less safe. There's a fixed amount of toast and only so much butter. Could be a hilarious self-own on the GOP's part.

000

Dan Crank @danno.org · 09/09/2026

I have made this point before: Missouri's 2024 congressional elections totaled 60% Republican votes and 40% Democratic votes. The 6-2 map and the 7-1 map are BOTH unfairly gerrymandered. The 6-2 map is just less bad.

Yes, you go on saying that allowing a citizen referendum over an act of the legislature is somehow disenfranchising us, bless your heart. Fortunately no one is listening to you or you might have to worry about not getting elected.

I had honestly forgotten all about this. Delves are the only part of the game I'm still doing, and they get stale pretty easily. I've only been reactivating my subscription a month at a time, but I'll definitely come back to check this out.

Sure, I'll play. Introduce yourself with 10 acts you’ve seen live: Indigo Girls (many times) Poi Dog Pondering (a few times) Blues Traveler (a few times) Weird Al (at least twice) Rush (at least twice) NIN (at least twice) OK Go Nightwish Midnight Oil Chemical Brothers

I actually finished a project! The graphics are "holographic" which seemed like a neat idea until I put them on the blue rocket and they reflect...blue. The idea was to make it easier to see in flight - time will tell. It's a five finned rocket, hence the name "Take Five." Kit is a MAC Blackfly.

Photo of a blue model rocket with five fins. Script on the side reads "Take Five." The script and stickers on the fins are reflective, but they're reflecting the blue of the paint so they're difficult to see.

Ned Burrowdeep, paladin of Yondalla (halfling goddess of feasting and having a good time). Just hit level 5 a few weeks ago.

A HeroForge screenshot of a halfling paladin wearing light armor. He has a shield on his left arm, but his sword is in its scabbard and he's holding a pipe in his right hand and smiling.

AcqInc is the only series I've really gotten into, because it's the most similar to my table. It's a bunch of smartasses fucking around and making each other laugh. I was sorry you were ill for the last one; I missed seeing you. I hope you make the next one (but I understand if you need a break).

I had the 75-in-1, which still came in a wood box when I was a kid. I have an eBay alert set on them and get a hit once in a while, but keep telling myself it'd just be another bit of clutter in my already cluttered life, so I don't buy one.

Just woke up from a dream in which NYC voted overwhelmingly to increase the number of Spider-Men on the streets. Mayor Mamdani seemed upbeat about the challenge of recruiting 1,000 new web-slingers. Going back to sleep to see how this turns out.

Ironically, the "citizen initiatives have to pass in each individual district" amendment did prove that there are some ideas so bad that all districts will in fact agree on them.

They specifically want books before 2022 because they are uncorrupted by AI. They need books that have not been poisoned by the poison they are making. It's just like pre-war steel. They invented cultural radiation.

That's less than I would have guessed. But $25k is a lot less than I would have guessed you could buy a restored WWII Jeep for, too.
