5-hour D&D session last night, starting up the Ghosts of Saltmarsh campaign, and my Tabaxi Swashbuckler missed every. single. attack he took all night long. But I was still able to lead a salvage mission down into the murky depths, no one died, and we had a great time.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.

Hmm, I don't think so, because we'll be rolling into a new campaign immediately afterwards. I think it's more bad time-management skills and just general shit happening. But could be!

and even if someone thinks "well I don't like/look at porn so why should it be a priority for me?" it's important to remember that when christofascists say "porn" they also mean age-appropriate comprehensive sex education, media with queer/trans people in it, and picture books about gay penguins.

We're literally 1-2 sessions away from finishing up our 16-month-long D&D campaign, and the same member of our group keeps cancelling and/or threatening to.

Which is obviously why they're performing the second album before the first. Because, y'all, Hallowed Ground from The Violent Femmes fucking sucks, other than "Jesus Walking On The Water." Anyone who's capping for that album belongs on a list.

There are few things that would bring me more joy than seeing The Violent Femmes perform their first album next month nearby in Sandpoint, Idaho. But also, there are few things that would bring me more pain than seeing The Violent Femmes perform their second album next month in Sandpoint, Idaho.

There is not enough money in this universe that would make me want to watch tomorrow's presidential "debate." And I can't tell if it's because I want to avoid watching which candidate more.

Just like with the Wyatt Family, the promo vibes may be good and spooky, but once they get into the ring, they get exposed as completely mediocre-at-best. It's incredibly embarrassing and the worst things about wrestling.

It's also important to acknowledge the various ways the GOP is working to disenfranchise young voters and People of Color, and make it as difficult as possible for them to vote.

Absolutely dire and depressing. This is what happens when you allow private companies to buy up homes and allow people to become landlords as a career rather than an investment. No one should own multiple homes before *everyone* has the option to own a home.

Candace and I were able to attend two different local Juneteenth celebrations/talks yesterday, and it was the most inspiring/re-energizing thing I could have possibly done with my day off. Also, I will never turn down good fried chicken, catfish, and greens.

Honestly, vegan butter is just as good as the real thing these days. Vegan cheese is generally a step or two behind, but definitely getting there.

There are more racists in NYC than in Boise Idaho. Because no one lives in Boise.🤷🏿‍♂️ But there's a much bigger Black community in NYC than Boise. Safety comes from the Black community. Not the NYPD. Not Long Islanders. Not Trump voters in Queens. Stop asking why Black folk are still on Twitter.

Joe Biden’s empathy for his fuckup son is one of the single most humanizing things about him and this is incredibly confusing to people who became fascists because their blue-haired enby grandchild told them no one says “Oriental” anymore

This morning, American Indian rights activist Leonard Peltier is getting his 1st parole hearing in 15 years.

It's expected to go all day.

The U.S. gov put him in prison nearly 50 yrs ago after a trial riddled with lies, threats & misconduct.

It's not just that The Acolyte isn't as good as Andor. It's that it's legitimately bland, uninspired, and worse than even drek like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka.
