RPG blogger, nerd, nonprofit development, dad. I mostly use twitter to talk about running tabletop RPGs. He/him. My views are my own, not my employer's.
To me, twitter is a conversation.
If I follow you, I'm talking to you when I tweet. I welcome any friendly response -- advice, suggestions, emojis, contradiction, constructive criticism, praise, self-disclosure, stories, tangential thoughts, expansions, memes, explanations, etc.
@ThirdWayMattB Came back to “x”just to respond to this:
If you had any principles of association, you wouldn't be on this platform at all, Matt.
We don't need to hear from centrists. Go invest six figures in fossil fuels and then donate $500 to the Sierra Club like the rest of your kind.
@anthonycabassa I very much appreciate that he's doing this in case ICE decides to gun them all down like the Boston Massacre, but that means even the avuncular Tim Walz thinks we're THIS CLOSE to actual, live-ammo, hot civil war.
Weekend Storm Update: It's not going to be pure snow for Baltimore. It's going to snow really hard (thumping) Sunday Morning, but it will likely change to sleet or freezing rain. Some of the modeling has over an inch of sleet! With the storm near the Mouth of the Bay by afternoon, pure snow accumulation around Baltimore will be from Midnight Saturday to Noon Sunday. The magic "540" line is up in PA by then. 👇 Some places N & W of Baltimore might get to a foot before the change. I think the Euro snow plot through 18z is close to what will happen. Stay tuned folks. This is complicated! 👇👇❄️🚂
@Grand_DM Little mini-games? Like how D&D/Pathfinder is three games - a roleplaying game, a tactical combat board game, and a solo strategic character build optimization game?
@kodie204@RepClayHiggins SNAP actually supports the whole food system, including producers and grocers, helping them stay open in low-income areas. If SNAP stops, some grocery stores in those areas wouldn't be able to stay open, so the higher-income people in those areas would suffer, too.
@kodie204@RepClayHiggins Food stamps have almost no waste or abuse. There is a little fraud and error, but it's manageable. However, there was a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse with the FSCC program -- that's why Nixon replaced it with food stamps.
(Nixon! Talk about fraud and abuse!)
@LucasSa56947288 If ya don't like it, advocate for a national voting rights bill that requires every state to appoint an independent nonpartisan/bipartisan commission or use a particular algorithm to draw district lines.
@BeingJWood Often it goes from "scam cult" to "zealous cult" status when the leader dies. It tends to be even more dangerous as a cult without a con artist leader, because nobody in the inner circle knows who's a bloody-handed zealot and who's a cynical con artist. See: LDS, Scientology.
@BeingJWood You mean independently, not part of some grand suicide plan? They usually have a succession plan involving their inner circle. See, for instance, the apostles.
"When this court issues a decision, it constitutes a precedent that commands respect in lower courts"
Sir, with the least possible due respect, US Supreme Court decisions don't command respect in *food* courts anymore.

@1matrixghost 4e D&D was excellent at this.
Most PbtA games put everything needed on playsheets and playbooks. You rarely ever open the book at the table except for prep inspiration or reviewing rules and guidance.
DONNIE J. AND KaroLYIN’ LEAVITT WILL HAVE THEIR (LITTLE) HANDS “FULL” TODAY. WHOOPS. I, GAVIN CHRISTOPHER NEWSOM, AMERICA’S FAVORITE GOVERNOR (MANY SAY), WILL HOST THE GREATEST PRESS CONFERENCE OF ALL TIME. AFTER THAT — “THE MAPS” WILL SOON BE RELEASED. VERY MUCH ANTICIPATED. HISTORY MADE. THE GOP’S RIGGED GAME IS OVER!!!! THE PEOPLE RETAKE CONGRESS. YOU'RE WELCOME, AMERICA! LIBERATION DAY!!! THAT IS WHAT MANY ARE CALLING IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. — GCN
@dieworkwear In most examples you give, men of the past wear their belt at or above the belly button, cinched. The men of the 2020s wear it below, hanging on the butt. That old belt style is unhealthy and uncomfortable, and it slides down synthetics. Hard to find high waisted men’s pants, too
