Met a young person who can't find a job bc of AI. His mom is sick and needs home care. He drives Uber to pay rent, but is barely getting by. I told him the White House pool is going to be longer than skyscrapers and he burst out crying. "Thank you sir," he said, "I needed that."
@newbiedm@thiseffingm Aside from which edition I prefer, I just wanted to say nobody who cares enough to ask "maybe I'm not doing a good job" is doing that bad a job. I've seen your game setup and Iomandra stuff, I'm 100% sure you're a bad ass dm

@evolutionarypsy I was surprised to learn a friend of mine had been a Kirk listener. He seems less happy with TPUSA now. There's definitely something to this outside my experience/exposure, so it was insightful to read. 'People trust figures not institutions' is a powerful insight for me
When Trump won in 2024, everyone couldn't stop talking about a vibe shift. NFL players did the Trump dance. There were more entertainers willing to be pro-Trump. Most of the big podcasters backed Trump.
