Happy Halloween! Here are some games well matched for the spookiest night of the year! 👻🧛‍♀️🎃

I don't know if either of these count, but:

Yer onna, you know this one hereya did crime. Do we really gotta figga out what it was?

In the Mamdani-Cuomo race, why should I choose safety as a Jew over safety as a woman? Rabbis are denouncing Zohran Mamdani in the race for New York City mayor — without acknowledging the threat to women posed by Andrew Cuomo.

For @forward.com, I wrote about something that has been bothering me: Why does all the talk about Jewish safety in the New York mayoral election not count sexual harassment as a threat to Jewish safety and dignity?

Designer: all right Mr. Del Toro here’s those Frankenstein’s monster designs, real sexy just like you asked for.
Del Toro: (nodding) this is exactly as sexy as I asked for.

Wait, you mean if the vote goes right we could make Cuomo a problem for DeSantis? Will the gifts never end?

4 frame comic. someone is interviewing people on the street with a mic. he asks a man with a red hoodie : sir! what do you think of the recent survey that suggests that less people are now identifying as transgender? was it just a fad? the man replies : the survey you're referring to was about students from 3 specific colleges who did not identify as male or female, which only tells us about non-binary people, nothing about trans women or trans men. if what you got out of this survey is that there are less trans people in the world, it's because you have a deep mis- understanding of transness to begin wthe only thing it tells us is that less non- binary students are willing to out themselves or to enroll into college. transness gets criminalized, publicly shamed and persecuted. trans folks deciding to go back into the closet or flee to safety isn't the win some people seem to think it is. it's heart- breaking, tragic, and a net loss for society.

A net loss

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people.

Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

I remember playing a game where I went behind the waterfall and I found a little diary with a cute little story. And I think that was a great compromise because it was basically a note saying "hi"

A deepy grey textured background features white text glowing with orange: "16 Indigenous Authors to Revitalize Your TBR." White text beneath this reads "What we're reading in dark speculative fiction," with an orange swoosh underlining the last few words. The Ruadán Books logo appears centered at the bottom.

A deep brown textured background features four book covers subtly outlined in glowing orange. The books are arranged in two rows of two, and an author's name appears above each set. The top row reads "Stephen Graham Jones" and features the book covers for My Heart Is a Chainsaw and The Buffalo Hunter Hunter. The bottom row reads "Waubgeshig Rice" and features the book covers for Moon of the Crusted Snow and Moon of the Turning Leaves.

A deep brown textured background features four book covers subtly outlined in glowing orange. The books are arranged in two rows of two, and an author's name appears above each set. The top row reads "Ramona Emerson" and features the book covers for Shutter and Exposure. The bottom row reads "Morgan Talty" and features the book covers for Fire Exit and Night of the Living Rez.

A deep brown textured background features four book covers subtly outlined in glowing orange. The books are arranged in two rows of two, and an author's name appears above each set. The top row reads "Cherie Dimaline" and features the book covers for The Marrow Thieves and VenCo. The bottom row reads "Vanessa Lillie" and features the book covers for For the Best and Blood Sisters.

We may have been out of the office yesterday, but that doesn't mean we're going to miss out on bulking up your #TBR stack in honor of Indigenous Peoples' Day.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Semi-related, I got Kiri's new book in the mail a couple days ago and I so upset I haven't had time to start it yet! Thanks to you, I'm gonna start it during my break today!

Shout out to @thatbronzegirl.bsky.social for the spare socks tip!

Yup.

Also remember that it's legal to use your biometric information to unlock your phone (finger/face) but not get your code. Turn off faceID if you don't leave your phone at home.

If someone's weird, leave them alone. If someone is trying to start a fight, leave them alone.

This administration over indexes in the amount of 'this would be a huge story in any other time'.

Such a good answer. Make sure it has the slowest elevators available.

This is a great answer.

I'd build life-size, animatronic versions of all my favorite board games.

"Oh yeah, come over, play Blood Rage! No, you don't have to worry about set up, but..."

Also, cover all the medical bills that result for it.

I just want you to know how much it warms my heart to see how excited you get about Malaysia being mentioned.

I have recently noticed that pretty much every one of my favorite creators (meaning authors, showrunners, board game designers, game designers, etc) are somewhat to extremely leftist and I don't think that's a coincidence.

I loved Werewolves Within (which I watched originally only because "Wait, Josh Ruben? That Josh Ruben?!"), but didn't know about Scare Me!

No problem!

The idea that anyone could propose "What if we removed funding for kids with special needs" and not immediately be flagged as evil super-villains.

The director of Heart Eyes?!

Ok, so this is a very big deal. Let’s thread it.

I'm a 50 year old man and I'm considering the same. My youngest is going to re-do the green this weekend, maybe I'll jump in with them.
