No minding, your own business was never a right-wing position.

That's just what they said while stacking the system against anyone that they didn't feel conformed to their preferred standards

This supports my thesis that we should have both a PM chosen by Congress to actually run the country and a ceremonial President chosen in a nationwide election with a discretionary budget to do whatever bonkers nonsense

Do this Ham come with Beans?

Cheesecake is cake, it's in the name, I'm it sure why you're comparing, cake to pie. Cake will also be the better dessert.

It's apple propaganda that pie is a dessert.

Meat pies and vegetable pies are a better use of crust.

🤔 those are really nice shoes

I appreciate this man is dressed like Zenigata.

Why as far as I can see they don't actually produce anything useful.

I guess we could nationalize Nvidia

If anything the AI companies are proving that we need to tax the wealthy more immediately reinvest that money into the economy

"You'll be visited by three spirits."

The three spirits:

Random #TTRPG idea: The great library had a massive wild magic surge and multiple tomes came to life and escaped. Now your group has to go recover them

This such delightful idea. I could see this being a really cozy campaign

Peanut butter works on a lot of things. I was inspired by those tiktok cucumber salad recipes with peanut butter

To fry rice with it

When cooking You don't need much peanut butter. Just 1 tbsp is a lot

I dont thinkg it through; but something about skeletons in space suits scratches some deep itch of mine.

🤔 seeing how Tornado Crypt ends up being exiled – functionally forgotten and unknown

Are you sure that's what you want?

Random #TTRPG idea: one of the best bits of advice I was given as a young GM eons ago in the dark ages of the 80s was "It's not just your story". You should remind yourself that every player is also writing the story. Learning to adapt goes much farther then trying to railroad

I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw.

( Also a good excuse for an #art study )

While I’m flying to my lady love, my Vorkosigan reread has hit everyone’s favorite: a civil campaign!

The premise is as simple as it is unexpected: what if your military space opera with a bent towards spy craft and mysteries had a romantic comedy, just an entire romantic comedy

This is very elegantly stated (the op thread is excellent as well)

You are in control, you could let them win.

I'll be writing about all of this shortly for Constitutional Perspectives once I get to Level Two, but: the fight over election systems at the federal Convention was a fight about the nature of the Union

If you follow Lincoln's view of the Union, neither the Senate nor the EC are defensible

What would game first even mean?

This is why I am supportive of just describing my hobby as playing Story Games

Video games have made the term role-playing game meaningless

And RPG has a lot of baggage, and unexamined assumptions

“You mean Politics is spending the rest of our lives making sure our enemies don’t win?”

Yes, actually

That's an amazing cat wall

Hell today, for the right lady I'd burn a cd 😈

Hopefully she would appreciate my eclectic taste in music

On TV shows, we love to arc a villian — force the bad guy to team up with the good guys and follow that character on a path to redemption. It’s fun, but it’s fiction.

In real life, villains rarely arc. Racists stay racist. Monsters stay monsters. If someone says they’ve changed, be real suspicious.

My Dudes…

This is the easiest digimon you'll ever catch

Sorry I misunderstood,

Is there any chance you've posted this talk somewhere else?

I don't understand why they have Trunp sitting, and everyone else standing around him

I've never seen this setup

Wrist pain is why I got a split ortholinear keyboard

My Dudes, if you feel any discomfort at all while typing, stop typing. Rest your wrists for 8 mins
