New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks. I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

important report from tonight's game: one of the PCs is getting a reputation about town as The Biter

I did 100% think the govt would simply ignore that court order like they always do, but I have, actually, gotten my SNAP for November. genuinely surprised

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

“No hell is hot enough or eternal enough for Cheney. Any discussion of his works must begin with the 2021 assessment that the War on Terror killed between 897,000 and 929,000 people across five of its battlefields. Codirector Neda Crawford called that assessment “a vast undercount,

Latest on SNAP benefits: SNAP will be coming this month but only 1/2 your amount (?!) and it will be delayed. Emergency continues here on the frontlines. www.npr.org/2025/11/03/n...

Practically every day we encounter someone who still has no idea ICE shot and killed someone in Chicago already. This happened before many people tuned in (and many have already tuned out again).

every time I send a business email these days I say "hope this finds you as well as possible in these trying times". if you've gotten one of these I hope you know in my heart it's more like TRYING!!!!!!!!! times because. well. jfc. the times.

here I am sending business emails at scary o'clock again. 4:28 AM may be a personal record

All the thinkpieces about Bluesky don't account for the fact that it's occasionally 100% wall-to-wall baseball on here

TTRPG players will do anything. send a famously uncharismatic PC down into a scary magic basement to have a social encounter Alone? why not!

today on the blog I'm doing tabletop trick or treat! you send me an ask with a genre, I give you a game or designer suggestion. get in on the fun! canisolothat.tumblr.com/ask

I've gone back and forth on whether to post about this -- part of me that is so, so tired of flaying open the details of our grief just to beg the world to care. They killed my friend. They fucking killed him. His wife is struggling immensely to feed their children. Anything you can donate helps.

my beloved best friend has sent me BONE DICE!!!!!

This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true. _This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure. https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/29/forrester_ai_rehiring/

1. This will be a forced labor camp; 2. Utah is already planning to make it easier to commit people to it.

what's the most Addams Family ttrpg you can think of. I'm trying to get festive

the trouble with cons is I know I'm going to want to run games but I also want to play in games but I also know I'll want to go to every panel and every activity—

What games would you like to see run at Convention Zero Fall 2025? Which games would make you jump out of your seat to make sure you get signed up to play?

I know where I'll be !!!!

TTRPG designers... business email on your itch page please. business email on your social media. business email on your website. I love a scavenger hunt but the odds of me actually sending an email go down with every extra place I have to look 😭

it's always so startling to learn how many of my mutuals are secretly baseball fans

SNAP benefits make it possible for the many disabled people (especially those who are multiply marginalized) relying on them to buy specific foods necessary to stay alive and stable. Food pantries/food banks often do not offer food reliably or at all that meets specific dietary requirements.

you should donate to your local food bank. but also give your money directly to your homebound and disabled friends for whom the food bank does not exist

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.

hello, we are running a little behind on our fundraising yet again! help us pay back our volunteers a little faster while maintaining ongoing eSim usage in Gaza. #ConnectingGaza @sfdirewolf.bsky.social @thellpsx.bsky.social bit.ly/eSimsRUs

heartwarming / heartbreaking scenes in tonight's game!!! I love when we get to see the PCs' emotional issues reflected in NPCs and suddenly everybody wants to "feel your feelings" and "ask for help" lol

This meeting could've been a Draw Steel montage.

god I love Draw Steel. yes I'll be saying this every Friday night for the next 3 months

Have Disabled People Considered The First Solution Anyone Would Think Of? and Other Unhelpful Tips

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
