Made it in under the wire. #makeaterriblecomicday

Today I learned of the Black Legion. It was for dudes that were into KKK shit but thought that the Klan's outfits were too subtle. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_L...

Went camping last night in the Mt Hood forest and didn’t see any animals aside from bugs and a jay (I was in the 2020 burn area) and then went through the West Hills later today and drove behind a coyote that decided to trot slowly down the street.

Every time I see a reference to the Washington Wizards I have to momentarily pause to remember whether they are a real basketball team or the guys who play against the Harlem Globetrotters.

Today's Free Day at the Portland Art Museum and I think it's open for another few hours. I just got back from it - it wasn't too busy at all! Might be your last chance to see the David Hockney exhibit.

Crafted a magical item for a friend today.

I saw a job listing last week titled "TEMPORARY DENTIST" and I get what they mean, but I keep thinking how funny that phrase is outside of the context.

Just looked out the window and saw a guy trying to eat a slice of pizza off of a paper plate while driving.

it was originally just one specialist who called in another specialist who called another specialist who told the other 19 specialists to get in here because they've never seen a guy so smart and healthy in their lives

Did some gardening in D&D today

I came embarrassingly close to falling for a scam while job hunting yesterday. Good reminder to always check the URL on emails you receive to make sure it's coming from a legit source.

We should be two “D&D Honor Among Thieves” sequels deep.

Seeing fireworks reflected off a downtown building (the new Ritz-Carlton) is kind of more enjoyable than seeing the actual fireworks. #pdx #buckman

As a historian, watching current events can help w/ interpretation Sometimes, people from hundreds of years ago did stuff that makes no rational sense from a modern, educated perspective Seeing people do similar idiotic things today helps me see that some people are just idiots

Today's the last day of the job I've worked for 8 1/2 years. I loved the work I was doing and got paid pretty okay (Portland average wage) but the company's values and culture changed significantly in the past year. Anyway, off to find something new. It's a good job market currently, right? Right?!

When I ran "Curse of Strahd" for my D&D group, I treated the Vistani more like a '70s biker cult rather than a stereotype of an ethnic group. Anyway, these ladies kept making appearances in the game. Embroidered into the back of their jackets were the words "Born to Die".

Milestone! The 🎆 2,500th 🎇 article has just been added to the site, describing the process of paving over abandoned streetcar tracks in April 1950: pdx-streetcar-history.notion.site/Paving-Due-o...

CW: Suicide. The lawsuit against this hateful anti-trans law is ending in part because one of the plaintiffs, a trans girl, killed herself.

Alright, I'm going to talk about one of my biggest reasons for unionizing on the Arena team. Forced relocation, aka "RTO" (Return to Office), "WFH protections" (Work From Home protections), or more recently "Ways of Working." Buckle in for a thread.

We have a fun new neighbor at our apartment building. It dug a little warren for itself, so we’re wondering if we’ll have some baby bunnies soon.

EVERYBODY! Stop what you’re doing!!! The Wildwood trailer is out!!! I spent over three years, mostly hand building the Doug firs that make up the eponymous Wildwood. youtu.be/POneS8h1jyU?...
