Me: If a dragoon fights on foot but rides a horse, what do you call someone who fights on foot but rides a dragon?

@htdrake: An idiot!

Also, move to the metric system and get rid of the Electoral College.

My copy of @DrPeterDrake's new card game about Samoan fireknife dancing, "Siva Avi" (think: push-your-luck Mille Bornes with flaming knives), just arrived. Is this the first dual English-Samoan board/card game? https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/siva-afi:-the-fireknife-dance-of-samoa

If you have received your copy of Siva Afi, please leave some love @thegamecrafter (thanks, @Jun34u_sec!):

This is a true story.

I take notes on physical paper for reasons. As I was flipping from one page to another during a call, a client noticed I was using graph paper, and told me I could no longer be trusted.

Because people who use graph paper are always plotting something.

More people have died in mass shootings in the last 2 weeks than cases of voter fraud in the entire election, yet Republicans have introduced over 100 bills in states all over America to make it harder to vote. They've yet to introduce a single bill making it harder to get a gun.

The challenge facing young people today is finding a social media platform old enough that other people are on it but not so old that FAANG+M have bought it.

Some interesting arguments in the replies here.

If you ever want to just have your mind break at how much economics have changed over the last 60 years, go re-read Ramona and Her Father where a home-owning family in Portland is saved from financial ruin by the dad getting a job as check-out clerk at a grocery.

Do you live in one of these states? If so, contact your state legislator about supporting @NatlPopularVote so that every vote counts equally. https://gdoc.pub/doc/e/2PACX-1vS_F4LCmRDMHa-QJDUCZMsmLoX3NURb-m7JTHdOwBebGyNmVkXmmwIVapZnY-JhrcNWMads8eOljyC2

One of my favorite things about criticizing Elon Musk is the wave of people who remind me how unfathomably successful the Right was in undermining faith in public projects to the point they trust a single megalomaniacal weirdo with crafting a post-Earth future over, say, NASA.

Remember how this happened and this tweet still exists and people insist that Marvel isn’t pro-military propaganda?

Good times. https://twitter.com/marvel/status/916317209017937920

Some people say @mattleacock predicted the pandemic in 2008, but How I Met Your Mother predicted Matt Leacock in 2005.

Working on @PIGSquad's Tabletop Jam. Space Disagreement is a 4X game with a twist for the theme of "A Harmful Resource". Cobbled together procedural starmap generation. @unity3d
