Call your electeds. Make sure you can vote. Make sure others can vote. The number for the Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121.

The #SAVEact would make it almost impossible for a whole lot of people, but especially women, especially women who are poor, trans, or y’know, legally married, to vote. #GOTV Call your electeds & urge them to stop the #SAVEact

I’m ignoring the fact that a lot of my joints ache and instead focusing on the fact that there are windows open in the house and it’s just fine!

That is what it looks like to hold your head high and overcome all efforts to shame and silence your voice.

If you include card games and dice games, the moral outcry against gambling is already going strong in the 1700s.

What about playground games and parlor games? They have game mechanics that influence current design. I'm thinking at the moment of Farmer In the Dell and Authors, and how the mechanics do or do not make players feel shut out or connected.

Goooooooooood morning time change!
Who else is awake an hour early and is not sure why?
And yes I do mean early. Maybe I'm making up for the "lost hour"??
Probably going to mean a second cup of coffee today.

"I think the LLM is conscious" makes a lot more sense when you realize a lot of people don't grasp the interiority of other people.

If you view other people as a series of inputs and utilities, it makes a lot of sense that you would see inert code awaiting your prompt as conscious.

A thousand percent this! I've traded sewing skills for yardwork, raw materials, food, and medical care!

Gonna start running "Meguey's Miscellany of Mending" at gaming conventions again, in case I'm the person you know who can show you how.

Learn. To. Mend. Your. Clothes.
Fixing stuff you already own is pretty much always the cheaper option over buying something new. There's a billion how-to videos on youtube, books in the local library, and probably people at the maker space /community college/ senior center who can show you how.

This should show up at every Rep candidate event for the next 3 years. This could be the next "greatest campaign commercial in political history...clearly and forcefully highlighted the candidates' diametrically opposed views" on crimes against children. #ProsecuteTheEpsteinPedofiles

There are over 20 of my mutuals who follow this guy, so I hope they see this and take the steps they want to take.

Heads up y’all. Please check your β€œfollowing” and β€œfollowers” and proceed accordingly. Not tagging anyone, just take care of yourself, maybe pass along the message.

Lest we entirely forget that there can be policians who have a conscience and a backbone. Alas that those seem to be in such short supply in the US today. youtu.be/HfXmpJRZPYI
