Excited to show this - I've working on a set of paper minis for all the Level 1 Dungeon Monsters in old-school D&D - Perfect for OSR games!

N = Number of times I tell my cat "Hey! Don't be a jerk." N+1 = Number of times my cat is, in fact, a jerk.

People say scheduling, but I think that ties back to wages and the structure of work. When you're exhausted from work and still not making enough to meet your needs, its hard to have the energy to commit to a 3-4 leisure event.

Okay, I'm feeling a bit beaten on this. Does anyone have good resources for making Affinity publisher docs screen reader accessible? What software do folks with screen readers use so I can get an idea of the user experience?

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

Oh yall want to play pretend, OK fine let's bring in the real fucking deal *Bam* oh look at that he won

If we could capture the energy from clutched pearls, we could power the entire planet.

No stream this evening. Need to have a rest day. But we'll do some Minecraft tomorrow at 7pm EST!

Great bundle. I have many of these.

Y'all got any more of those Mamdanis? Asking for a friend.

Jak had to be rushed to the emergency vet as he was leaking an alarming amount of puss from his abdomen. He requires surgery and a drain as he has an infection and in total is going to cost nearly $4,500. If anyone is able to help, I would be eternally grateful. #mutualaid ko-fi.com/techpriestne...

Ugh. Lots of back pain this morning. Anybody selling aftermarket spines? No questions asked as long as it works.

Does anybody still play Palia? I think I played it for like...one day when it first launched. Worth playing?

What we've learned today is that if you plan on throwing sandwiches at fascists, be sure to ask for extra onions and mustard. They don't like that.

Made some progress on clearing brush out to the property line today. The plan is to plant blueberry and blackberry bushes along the property line in the spring.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay. See the problem?

In case you missed it (like I usually miss collection day), I released a little solo ttrpg on the weekend.

As someone who grew up on large front porches where people sat for leisure and socializing, it's weird as hell to me when I show up at someone's house and they've got this tiny little concrete nubbin jutting off the door. Like shit, where do you put your rocking chair?

Here's mine: I worked full time until my epilepsy kept me from working. Work requirements in my state prevent me from getting government assistance, but I haven't yet been approved for disability. I get by with help from family and what I can make from viewer donations and editing work.

Here in Atlanta yesterday, more than 2,000 people waited in their cars—one woman for 14 hours—for a box of food. The giveaway ended early; there wasn't enough to go around. Multiply this scene by countless others across the country, and you get a sense of how crushing the desperation is right now.

New rule: every day that a Speaker of the House refuses to convene the House during a government shutdown, they get kicked in the balls on live TV.

This site is wild. Search for "greenhouse." Top result is full naked man ass.

Agreed. No one sells their food stamps to pull one over on the government. They do it to exchange funds limited to food into funds that can be used for other things their family needs, like gas money to get to work or shoes for their kid.

People 'selling their food stamps to abuse the systen' is a self-created issue that goes away if we just transition to universal basic income with no stipulations on what they spend it on.

Food insecurity isn't going away. It was an issue before the current SNAP crisis manufactured by the Trump administration. As a people, we have to address food waste, grow more of our own food to supplement our groceries, and tax the shit out of the rich.

If I'm not clear enough on the topic: No one in a nation that wastes 30% of its produced food should be hungry. No one should be unhoused in a nation that has more empty houses than unhoused people. Dragons nesting on hoards are the bad guys in tabletop games, not an ideal to strive to become.

My favorite coffee shop has an in-house baker who I am convinced is an actual goddess incarnate. She's produced apple cider cookies and they are amazing.

When I'm elected president, I will mandate that every town has a trebuchet for the purposes of yeeting the fuck out of punkins and billionaires the day after Halloween.

You Christmas people and your fickle attention spans. My skeletons stay up until March.

Yes police? I witnessed a murder on Reddit.

Low Poly Cloud for Halloween.

Reminder that for every 1 meal local food banks provide, SNAP provides 9 meals. Your local food pantry is faced with a situation in which they need to massively scale up their operations to meet the need. They need you to donate money, time, and goods.

Yeah, cut out your $5 sweet treat once a week! If you do that, you'll be able to save a $35,000 down payment on a house in 134.6 years!

Of all the potential inventions of the future, I just want a quantum coffee cup that refills itself when it's empty.

Great read.

How well do you know your neighbors?

Did my intake to commence volunteering at a local food pantry this afternoon and let me tell you, after just half an hour of basic description of operations I now thoroughly get why they stress "please just give money, don't buy random food at retail and bring it in" over and over and over.

I don't understand the endgame for these companies pushing LLM and AI automation. Who do they think is going to be buying their products if AI is doing everything, making everything, selling everything? You lay off hundreds of thousands of workers, who buys your product?

looking back on the cartoons and children’s media that mattered to me when I was young, I say this with absolutely zero irony: I think we need to start scaring the shit out of kids again

lotta people saying to donate to food banks which is great, but if that’s not available to you, often they are desperate for volunteers! shifts can be short, a few hours when you’re free, doing stuff like sorting boxes, making sandwiches, or delivering meals, depending on the org

🔴 LIVE now! I ran a food pantry in rural AL serving 500 families. Let's talk about it. + Slime Rancher later in the stream. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hT5...

I'm streaming Slime Rancher at 7pm EST, but we're going to use the first part of the stream to talk about food pantries and blessing boxes, how to support them, and frequently overlooked items. I used to run a pantry serving 500 families a month in rural AL.

Governors in other states: *moving funds around to fund food pantries since the federal gov't has decided to abandon its people* Governor Kay Ivey of Alabama: "Let's pray the Democrats allow the government to reopen." Fuck off, Meemaw.

Overlooked blessing box / food pantry donations that are always appreciated: Small containers of soap/shampoo, wet wipes, menstrual products, diapers, formula.
