We've hit all our stretch goals for our TTRPG anthology!! 20 new one shot incursions for Trophy! We're not going to be printing a lot of extra books so be sure to get in on it now or you'll be sad later! www.kickstarter.com/projects/fir...
That's why I'm so against ChatGPT. I'm against letting a machine do your homework for you. I think you should cling to Doing Your Homework Yourself like it's the last opportunity you have to liberate yourself from mental enslavement. Because it basically is.
Anyway shout out to Kai Cenat.
This means that 9-year-old Lucy can deadlift me.
You’re only “losing an hour” if you didn’t invest the hour you gained last fall in a high-yield debt instrument. Oh, you’re feeling a little sleepier than normal tomorrow morning? Some of us have been grinding since November
“Contrary to urban legend, the woman is not interested in hearing about your day.”
lol I wondered if anyone remembered this one too!
On the photo radar question, my anecdotal observation is that, with it gone, most in Edmonton are driving at 10km/h above the posted limit now, minimum. It's the new base speed.
It’s actually FEWER Misérables
I didn't hate it, but it did have a sort of "shit, we're out of time / money! Okay, let's start killing people" feel (much like the stories I would write in high school)
The other editors in my department say this too. I've just had them on for so long that I don't notice / think the text is empty without them.
Of course, I also find myself removing bold and italics from empty spaces, which is possibly not worth the time
I'm always shocked when I hear about editors who can work with the formatting symbols hidden.
Yup. Every word.
Jayme Lawson says what all these Black people have been telling you. Including Black people with disabilities. Including Black people with Tourette syndrome. Including Black people with coprolalia.
But people still don't want to hear it.
If you spend time in the bad place, you’re hearing this claim a lot:
Alberta sends $23B more to Ottawa than it gets back. If we separated, we’d erase the $9B deficit and have a $14B surplus.
It sounds simple. It’s wrong. Here's why. 🧵
Fun fact, US passports did not have a gender marker until 1977, when a rising trend in unisex fashion started freaking the government out.
This is because before the country was flooded with imported round tires from the USA, Canada used metric tires which are triangular.
If this is already the normal procedure everywhere, i.e. a google scholar import, universities’ library catalogues will be useless tomorrow.
Sometimes I’m not even listening to anything — I just don’t want to talk to people
Many people don't understand but the billionaires tax you every day by overcharging you and underpaying you
You controlling the Government via democracy and taxing and controlling the billionaires is the way of balancing this
In the last 50 years that balance has been destroyed
Is the assumption here that writers are only writing to earn money? Because that seems laughable
We urge all our friends in the Worldcon community to consider nominating On Spec for the Best Semiprozine Hugo Award, and to consider nominating Diane Walton for Best Editor - Short Form.
They've done great work for 35 years.

Okay well that just sounds fantastic
This had me tearing up before I even got out of bed this morning.
Carney could have chosen any economic sector for a Canadian moonshot — environmental tech, education, transportation. Instead, he’s focusing on the three most damaging sectors in the world today: fossil fuels, AI (hype version), arms manufacturing.
We desperately need alternative plans and policies.
My problem is that I want to get back into 2nd edition with my siblings but I can’t remember the house rules that we used to have!
I finally got around to making salt cod fish cakes. Not much to look at, but they were delicious!
A benefit of free buses I hadn’t heard enough about until this piece from @galvinalmanza.bsky.social
