If you were the woman on a yellow racing bike who was attacked by a car driver this evening (Tue 17 Oct at 19:00) near #potsdammerplatz in #berlin, then I am a witness, have photos and the numberplate of the car.
Please boost - I guess on Muskrat and Zuck-controlled asocial media as well.

I'm going to start streaming development of Cascadia 9.2, the third in our series of earthquake preparedness games, in the Jam Coworking 1 channel at http://discord.gg/pigsquad in an hour (1 PM Pacific). Goals for this session:
Create a simple maze
Add a “dead zone” that kills a PC who walks into it
Launch a new level when both PCs reach the goal
Display both PCs’ faces in the HUD

So I started using a CPAP machine a few months ago. Apparently the story is that it's 100% effective, but patient compliance is the big issue; some give up the first night.
After verifying that it would work for me (and which mask I would need), I went ahead and signed up for "supplies" (replacement parts) to be shipped out every three months. They had me fill out a contract.
It's been more than three months, and I haven't received anything. I contacted the company through the email address the provided, and got a reply to call a phone number. I did that, and the story turned out to be:
"Your insurance doesn't allow automatic shipping, so we received your order and didn't enroll you."
It's all straightened out now, but "silently do nothing" is not a good policy.

2. All the luck was on my side in today's game of Unmatched. My Medusa landed a mighty Gaze of Stone attack before Sinbad managed to dig out his Voyage cards.
