Having long been aware of those tech bros who read my work as utopian porn, where they’ve taken that doesn’t exactly surprise me.

I am thrilled and proud beyond measure to support the amazing workers who create and design the games I and my loved ones have spent a lifetime playing. I implore everybody to sign the petition and signal boost the campaign as far and wide as we can!

By almost any measure Dolly embodied "the American Dream." Some people will come from nothing and make it big and consider the problem now solved. Others will remember that there are still others with nothing and use what they have to help.

Dolly didn't just say be who you are and you are enough -- and she sure did, a lot -- her whole deal was, "whatever you are, BE MORE OF THAT, BABY, GO FOR IT, I LOVE YOU." all we can do is try to pass on a little of that energy in this mean world.

Love how this dude discovered the cheat codes of "what if I listened to constituents" and "what if I modeled good behavior" and "maybe I behave like a normal person should." These are apparently dark secrets that have been hidden from other politicians.

I’ll just say, as someone who had a completely average amount of sun exposure as a kid and also who’s had three melanomas and 35 mole excisions and would be dead without both - there’s no such thing as going overboard with sunscreen, only underboard. No one should go underboard with it.

I’m a huge Pilot, Sailor, and Pelikan fan, and I also own way too many TWSBI Ecos and Kaweco sports. I also love Pilot Iroshizuku and Sailor inks which are always quality, and Diamine is in that same category. And lately I’ve really been enjoying Wearingeul and Ferris Wheel Press inks.

I like JetPens, Goldspot Pens, and Fahrney's in DC. Are you looking for recs on pens? Paper? Ink? What do you already have going?

To paraphrase what @volts.wtf says later in the thread: kill your imposter syndrome. We're all making this shit up, all the way up and down. Let 'er rip and watch what happens when someone acting on the side of our better natures just goes for it and tries to do some good.
