I thought we weren't engaging in the Harry Potter brand anymore? How does one Malfoy-flavored mean girl get so many people to fold that easily? Y'all could just watch Mean Girls. Y'all could make a Mean Girls DND AU.

The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? 

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

Had a player bounce off AW completely because of the "MC can go as hard and direct as they like" on a "Miss" because, "You'll just always choose to kill my character." as that's what HE would do as an adversarial GM. The thought of LIKING the PCs was completely alien to him and he couldn't grok it.

American healthcare is such crap. $300 to possibly $900 in surprise medical bills for preventive care that was supposed to be covered by insurance but now apparently isn't covered by insurance. We need medicare for all ffs, and at the very least, up front pricing immediately.

Working my way through the ships of the Eridani system today. The belt dwellers refer to their home as "The Reef", so many of the ships get a bit of Expanse-meets-marine life vibe. Marauding Nomad clans get a little sharky, while the biomechanical Shell & their Samudari vassals are, well, shells.
