The presidential hopeful was more taciturn today at the media's questioning. "What do you feel is the most important issue facing kids today?" "Food. Good food. And homework."

"How do you feel about our current educational system?" "School is too long and there's too much homework. I would change that. For example school wouldn't start until maybe nine o'clock and we would have way less homework. This is because it is stressful and stress is bad for you."

"Where do you stand on immigration?" "As long as nobody is hurting anybody everybody would be welcome. I feel that way because there's no reason people shouldn't be allowed to come here if they are nice."

"Should kids have to pay for school lunch?" "Well I know some people can't afford enough food and being hungry sucks. I would make it so all kids had free breakfast and lunch from school so they could at least have some good food."

"How would you protect our natural resources?" "Protecting the environment is important because trees give us oxygen, so I would hire a hundred people to be tree protectors. I would also make it illegal to cut down trees at all."

I just don't think we're doing art any justice if we insist on decoupling the art from the artist.

to young people: you may at some point have heard about the Y2K problem. some people may have told you it wasn't a big deal i need you to understand the only reason it wasn't a big deal was that everyone spent loads of time fixing code before it could become a problem, which is why it never did

We are five sessions into Curse of Strahd and I am really enjoying it as a first-time DM! Buuuut I have a million questions. Questions I can't run by any of the DMs I know. Because they're all players at my table 🙃

So you’re a game designer who wants people to write adventures for your system. Here’s how you facilitate that:

Still, there's something inherently violent even about dice rolls. It's like every time you cast a die, something disappears. Some alternative ending, or an entirely different world...

I do want to know! I rarely mind spoilers, because there's still an entire journey there. But I have my theories. Ember is my second biggest worry after Avar and Elzar.

I do not actually want them to end up together in a traditional sense—maybe more like... end up together (in the Force) via mutual sacrifice.

As someone who will never catch up on all of the High Republic books, someone please tell me Avar and Elzar get the ending I am holding out hope for.
