All this. My 14yo loves retro stuff. He has zero nostalgia for original MegaMan. He couldn't because he wasn't alive. It's not something I ever played myself or with him. But this kid has played the hell out of MegaMan games way older than he is simply because they're cool and his style of game.

The USA joins an illustrious group including North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen & Somalia. Not even Nazi Germany held public executions prior to WW II. I say this not to downplay Nazi crimes, but to make clear how this administration views its own population: brutalised and hungry for revenge.

I play digital on my phone now and use my old cards with my kids sometimes. I priced out my mid digital deck as paper to go to the local shop's game night... 150 bucks.

Honestly... the card scalpers and streamers who want to be card scalpers are kinda ruining all the physical TCG games right now. It's stupid expensive to get into all the most popular formats. The game was peak in the 00s.

What random thing did you read your kids when they were small and just cared about listening to your voice? I read aloud one of @kevinhearne.bsky.social's Iron Druid books to my kid who was a week old. Had to summarize four pages with "And they..... kissed. A lot."

🧵 Attention, Fellow SFF Artists and Authors -- here is my response to Must Read Magazines, after they presented an Asimov's art contract expecting me to waive all Moral Rights and Copyright to my art. And, I would strongly advise the following to my fellow pros…. 1/
John Picacio’s response to Must Read Magazine’s request for his waiver of all Moral Rights and Copyright of his commissioned art for an ASIMOV’S assignment. Short version — Picacio says a resounding NOPE.

writers: remember that we must be in solidarity with our artist comrades. this affects all creatives. do not be like those quislings who disdain genai writing but eagerly use genai imagery.

this is absolutely dire horses, and more evidence to me that Must Read is running Analog, Asimov's, and F&SF as IP lobster traps. I was glad to be at Analog's 90th anniversary a few years ago, but at this rate MRM will hollow it out to an Edgar suit before it hits 100

Weird thing about parenting... You will get to know other parents. Chat with them. Solid proper acquaintances at a minimum. And never know their names. It's just Mason's dad, Liam's mom, Sophie's dad, Dorothy's parents, and so on. Guarantee I'm just "one of [redacted]'s moms" for them
