I haven't slept more than 2-3 hrs a night for about 3 or 4 weeks now

We (Mom our #ESA and I) aren't eating well as support for our #MutualAid has been dwindling over time

Tbh I don't think it's changed much at all but I've been running on fumes trying to keep us save from the death machine of #capitalism for over a year now

More in next #hoot but have this in a new tab

No one is safe in #capitalism with #colonializers deciding who lives and who dies

The death machine only wants #slaves no matter what creed or level of melanin you have - you are not safe

You might have a greater illusion of safety and comfort

But as those in #Poverty and living with #disability get legally euthanized by starvation - you're next

As they exterminate BIPOCs - you're next

Time won't stop it from happening #Trump or #NotTrump doesn't matter

Your heart does

The #colonializers have used "divide and conquer" for millenia or at least centuries

As you look at your human siblings and think "they've got more than me" or "they have enough help" or even "they're more marginalized" it creates hierarchy, division and perpetuates false dichotomies left and right (wording with purpose)

Not just within humanity but also seeing other animals and plants as less than it breeds #consumerism

This thing deserves to be consumed

For the wide ranging role-players out there:

Is there a dice pool system in print where after you roll, you sort your dice into subject dice (what you're trying to do) and object dice (what happens to your character)? It could mean you only have to roll once per turn to get the outcome.

L5R's the closest to this, with successes, opportunities, and strife (or Genesys, which has a more complicated version). Successes and bonus successes determine magnitude of success or failure, while opportunities modify it or do things orthogonal to the check.

In our last campaign, using a home brew, we had no GM rolls and no GM turns. It worked, but it's not a basic method. You have to be targeted during your turn, so we still used initiative within your turn, to see if a foe attacks first.

The way we tried, there were no GM rolls, meaning you have to use the negative for NPCs. They don't roll to search, you roll to see if you stay hidden. Their damage is fixed, but you roll resistance, etc...

It doesn't have to be that sophisticated.



Israel's pager bombing appears to be simple state terrorism, predictably causing indiscriminate violence and suffering among many noncombatants. The Israeli actors couldn't know and apparently didn't care where the thousands of devices were when they blew them up. What a world.

Maybe dont be Part of An Terroristorganisation helps Not to be a target.

Netanyahu needs to be charged with crimes against humanity and hauled in front of the Hague! This was an act of terrorism.


Residents of a wealthy Silicon Valley enclave are being hit with an email scam in which someone knows their name, includes a photo of their home, and claims to have hacked their most personal info. Don’t believe it, EFF’s @cooperq tells The Almanac.

I'm finding it a little difficult to muster sympathy for Atherton residents. Pretty sure they'll be fine, regardless.

Welcome to the world of the poors, where we're threatened with scams at least 30 times per day!

Saw a scam I haven't yet seen. Someone claiming to be from Cashapp wants to give me $1500. In text message.

Replacing gasoline with ethanol has changed landscapes across the globe as grasslands and forests give way to cornfields. Researchers are deeply divided over what this means for the planet. Here’s the science behind the conflict.

Why learn the names of flowers, plants, trees, birds, insects, or other aspects of nature? Just point your #smartphone at whatever you’re looking at, and in a snap it’ll tell you what it is. No nature guide (book or human) could possibly compete.

No need to remember your friends' names, jobs, marital status, number of children or hobbies. Just point your phone at them and it'll tell you. Actually, no need to remember who your friends are.

At home. I often take a few photos of my apartment to finish a roll of film faster. Sometimes the result surprises me!

Tried hauling a gallon (well, two half gallons) of milk, a package of chicken, sourdough, some peppers and limes home via bicycle on my morning break today. Looks like that is about the limit without a trailer (half strapped on the bike, the rest in a backpack... uphill return). #groceries #cycling #BikeTooter
in reply to AI6YR Ben

My current solution for groceries is a Burley Travoy trailer. Unless I'm lugging something really heavy like a bag of potting soil or a car battery, I barely notice it when I'm towing it.

Before that I used a milk crate with a small cargo net to hold stuff in. If you stick with a basket, a cargo net is really the way to go, it's a web of linked bungie cords and the links make it far better at holding stuff in than regular bungies.
