The in-universe development of the Charger CHG-1A1 in a nutshell: #BattleTech

Actual footage of Vince Guaraldi performing "Linus and Lucy". I'm gobsmacked that this exists, but utterly thrilled too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EMf...

I have to say, last night following all the skeets and threads about It Happening, how to plan for It, what your preferences for finding out It Happened are, was the most old, "good" 2012ish Twitter feel I've had on BlueSky in a long time. It was nice. Keep manifesting everybody!

Share a television show that raised you.

Somehow this was not the most sinus-clearing line sent to me this morning, but damn close.

Top 3 is: #3 - Burn Notice #2 - 12 Monkeys #1 - Babylon 5 Honorable mention - Leverage

I'd focus my anger on an organ that is forced to be more intimately connected to the base: the DSCC. Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Phone (202) 224-2447 [email protected]

My answer most dear to my heart is Champions/HERO System. I still love that enormous toolset of a game, it’s so mechanically dense but lets you model pretty much anything you want.

Oh Poirot is a *strong* play, but I’ll go with Babylon 5’s evolving opening credits over the 5 year arc.

Drop an old person you are going to turn into in the future

of course there are a few notable exceptions but the answer to “what order should i read/watch/play this series in?” is almost always “order of release.” they didn’t release them in that order by accident

Posting this on a Friday is diabolical lol

Don't Rest Your Head was my introduction to the world of smaller press/indie TTRPGs and it remains one of my absolute favorites to this day. Equal parts wonder and horror, does an amazing job simulating that burnt-edges feel of severe sleep deprivation, everyone should give it a try at least once.

Star Wars: Dark Forces (the whole series, really)

The @dianajonesaward.org gave its 2025 award to two of its nominees for the first time in the award’s history. To the climate change themed board game Daybreak and to Endless Quest author and former TSR employee Rose Estes.

Had a blast at the Diana Jones awards in Indy tonight, just a great organization and bunch of people!

Transition lenses that keep getting darker the longer someone is talking to you.

Called my Congressperson here in St. Louis county today to add a voice asking to either vote a simple "no" or at least amend it to send it back to the Senate on Trump's ugly mess of a bill. Not expecting much, but I agree with those that say it's important we at least use our voices to call it out.

joss whedon's firefly asked a brave question: what if outlaw star fucking sucked ass and didnt have a catgirl

What’s the cover art that got you started in the TTRPG hobby? Here’s mine:

I know the law

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.

Reposting this one more time as I limp through the last two weeks until I start getting paychecks again. It feels inadequate to say again but I don't know how else to, that I can't thank everyone enough for everything you've done

Most succinct fact-check I've read of how LA Fire Dept's budget wasn't recently cut -- in fact, the opposite -- from @politico.com. But that misinformation spread anyway. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? I feel pretty good about my chances!

Our seventh most-read story of this year: When companies like Aetna or UnitedHealthcare want to rein in costs, they turn to EviCore, whose business model depends on turning down payments for care recommended by doctors for their patients. Read more (published October) ⬇️

What is your most rewatched anime.

Ok this is a soft launch, beta, work in progress etc but breakingnewsusa.com is gonna be an aggregator and directory of as many left news and information sources as possible. Going to put them all there - news sites, blogs, podcasts, YouTube, TikTok, whatever. Something missing, tell me.

If you see this, quote with your first anime Growing up in the early 80s this is always a complex question for me - does Voltron or Robotech count? They’re anime but without any effort to translate, just complete rewrites that use the animation. I generally consider this my first “real” anime.

Stop what you're doing and post a gif of your favorite anime!

Reskeet to save someone’s fucking life

Let’s defeat some fascists today, and never have to hear about Donald Trump ever again.

Well, on bright side to not going to GenCon this year, I wasn’t halfway there when my car started shaking and my check engine light came on… 😑😑😑

Kino seeing the volcano erupt. When Blue starts playing at the end of Cowboy Bebop.

Because I will always repeat this when we see measles circulating again: if you were born 1957-1972 and did attend college or 1957-1987 and didn't attend college, you should get your MMR immunity tested with a simple lab test or one adult dose of MMR booster if your insurance won't cover labwork.

It will be interesting, now that BlueSky is open to all, to see if some of the larger "brands" that have stayed on Twitter make the migration. For a lot of people and companies, Twitter has long since become first and foremost a marketing tool, will this place be treated the same way?
