Lmfao The Atlantic is really riding this eugenics train all the way to the end of the line, huh. Here’s a cool tip from someone who’s *less* isolated bc I mask everywhere in public: enjoy having a little more pocket money month to month by cancelling your subscription to The Atlantic!

Ojisan TCG is the pinnacle of card games Cardboard never should have left the school yard.

No joke, a new TCG is taking over the small Japanese town of Kawara. But instead of fighting fantasy creatures, Kawara's kids are collecting cards of elder volunteers at the local community center.

@chasecarter.bsky.social writes about the intergenerational beauty that is the Ojisan TCG.

For folks who might be positive from GDC, I say this with so much love and care for you: it’s never ever too late to start masking again. The best thing you can possibly do ✨right now✨ is stay healthy. Protect yourself, protect the people you love, and protect the people who make up your industry!

β€œDEI” isn’t just about including marginalized people in your games or showsβ€”it is *specifically* about racial integration. TTRPGs and APs must provide better pipelines, opportunities, and resources for trans artists of color to reach new fans and attain consistent, reliable financial support.

Hi! If you are a trans person, you are likely affected by this. (ACA funding covers more than someone who is not a health policy wonk might realize.) If this thing passes, thousands of trans folks are going to lose access to everyday health care like hormones. If you care about us, speak up.
