I'm watching Buckaroo Bonzai for the first time since I saw it in the theater when it came out (!!) and am now convinced the reason they never made a sequel is because they ran out of money for drugs.

Structuring your rulebook is functionally indistinguishable from structuring units and lessons as a teacher. Challenging your own implicit biases (Your knowledge of your game and TTRPGs/games in general) is essential to creating an accessible player experience in your game.

Even though there was an incredible amount of human expertise lying around, we made crappier machine expertise and now that's your only option. And you're complaining.

In many ways, the only thing boys need to learn are the lessons we already teach girls. They need to learn to be part of a community. And if they understand that, then the lessons on consent and sexual violence come naturally.

As an autistic woman* it's really interesting when men fall back on "I can't help it, I'm autistic" as an excuse for SA and consent violations because as an autistic person all I've ever done is make myself smaller for a world that won't accommodate my disabilities.

A data center may bring jobs, but calling local water and power “the cost of progress” hides who gets the benefit and who carries the risk. Innovation needs consent, not just permits. #AI #Justice

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Ken Paxton keeps dodging James Talarico's requests to debate him, so Talarico last week offered to debate him on Fox News and went viral over it: "I'll go into the lion's den." Now neither Paxton nor Fox News are responding to Talarico's request. www.huffpost.com/entry/james-...

Just learned that UNT's College of Library and Information Science is, in response to a 20 million dollar donation (or grant) changing the name to College of Artificial Intelligence and Applied Eugentics (not Eugenics; it means Vibe Coding, and I may be misspelling it).

The Merck Veterinary Manual I just sent to another library has a "Curl Up With a Good Book" half-jacket. And it's not WRONG, it's just very incongruous.

It's kind of like what Vivian Wilson said about her dad, he wants to be a character in a cyberpunk setting, but rather than being a hacker or whatever, he wants to be the owner of a Weyland-Yutani type corporate nation state thing.

"... You know, I actually *did* read some Ayn Rand in college? I spent a week thinking I was, like, the new John Galt.

"Yelled at some protesters. Fun times.

Eventually we're going to have to acknowledge the fact that we're not going to be able to constructively address the GM burnout problem as long as our definition of "bad GMing" includes "having any preferences whatsoever about what kind of game they want to run".

The best thing about "Darmok" is that the aliens are actually 100% able to speak in plain terms – they just refuse to do so because their culture regards it as humiliatingly undignified NOT to communicate exclusively in fucked up memes, and they're willing to risk an interstellar incident over this.

These are not normal times. Your internalized expectations of what you *should* be able to accomplish right now are likely not calibrated for the kind of distress we're all experiencing. Forgive yourself for struggling, forgive your colleagues and friends and family and strangers for struggling.
