TTRPG friends: I can’t commit to a weekly or even monthly game, but if you are gathering a table for a one-shot (or Session 0 + 1-shot), keep me in mind, I’m interested in getting involved as a player again after long hiatus. TTRPG CV in thread.

@MTG_Arena Is this … Gen-X erasure? (To be clear, I’m not 35-44, I’m 54 and … can’t take your survey?)

I’ve always found it piquant that Jenny Lewis and Elvis Presley share the same birthday since she's my hard first choice to play him in the all female “Million Dollar Quartet” reboot which is my last and final goal on this tentative Earth. (Carl Perkins you ask? Courtney Barett.)

“Marches”. Duh.

@JasonIsbell Inquiring minds want to know, and if it’s out there I can’t find it … what instrument did you march, in band? (Asked from a HS Football game attended because my youngest matches flute …)

[Ian M. Ireland @ianmireland]

@tomwaits @AmericanaFest It’s at @40WattAthens with @drivebytruckers and @Wednesday_Band_ … y’all come out.

Dear @washingtonpost and @AppleNews: I subscribe to the paper (digital all access, $8/month on my Apple ID) and follow it in the News app. How can I get it so that when I click a @barrysvrluga op-Ed on here, I can actually read it without having to manually dig for it in an app?

I’ll keep saying it. Doctors and nurses who work for @UHC or any other health insurance company are soulless ghouls. Please use your knowledge and experience for good. Please.

Gender-affirming care is supported by every major medical association in the United States.

Like similar attacks on trans youth in Alabama, Texas, and Arkansas — this harmful law will not hold up in court. https://t.co/kdWCgUKlle

White History Month is trending likely because racists are upset there's a Black History Month and not a white history month.

Here's a great explanation, written by a white person, on why Black Pride is powerful, but 'white pride' is good old fashioned racism.

There's a school in Florida called New College of Florida. It's notoriously non-traditional, has a highly progressive student body, and a high proportion of LGBTQ+ students. It's also one of the best public colleges in the country and it's in the midst of a political takeover🧵

@lurichpete "Islands in the Stream" of course.

Ok, now Lindgren working hard to hold it there.

I mean, outerwear is pretty cool. Not much call in Florida tho.

Sometimes I follow an account like @dieworkwear thinking it’ll be interesting to learn something (anything) about fashion, and then I remember I never want to leave my house, and when I do, I only want to wear jeans & a concert T or khakis & a swag t-shirt from my employers.

@pecunium Per Timothy Snyder (the context being the Holodomor in Ukraine) (and I believe him) famines are always the result political decisions. * (* I may be mis-paraphrasing. Errors are mine.)

Florida has banned the Advanced Placement test in African-American history, citing its memory law. The national movement to censor American history takes the form of state-level memory laws.

25% of the entire 200+ year national debt was added during Donald Trump's four years.

MOST of the Trump debt was added before COVID hit.

Congress raised the debt limit three times under Trump.
