A very effective way to burn an organizer out, or at least to get them to not want to organize with you anymore, is to superficially act like you're listening to them but then outright ignore them Also good is chiding them for not providing enough labor (for your action)

I wrote an entire RPG based around music as magic and "Conductors" cueing ensembles of Aethersprings to alter reality And yes, I showed my players pics like this to get them into the right headspace!

Just a friendly reminder, you don't need...that shitty wizard series...for references for wizards. If you wanna draw a wizard or magician fight, look up irl photos of music conductors. You're welcome.

Hey if you're going to Nordic APIs in Stockholm in October, I'm going to be giving a talk on why "just put FastMCP in front of all your APIs, it'll be fine" is a Particularly Bad Idea, among other topics Come out, hear me speak, say hi, and let's get drinks afterwards?

One sad effect of how awful material conditions have become is a breakdown in trust Me: I can hook you up with this thing you need Them: I can't afford it Me: It's *free* Them: What do you want in return? Me: Nothing, I have more than enough, I want to share Them: ...there's no way this is real

My radical take: We should have UBI such that the retirement age is 0. Anytime you want to stop working and rest, we've got you. You want to go back to working for whatever reason (want that new Xbox, inspired to do something new, just bored)? We've got you there, too.

I think retirement age is one of the starkest differences between people with physically demanding jobs and those without. The former absolutely do not want to work longer where as the latter find it one of the least objectionable social security fixes.

So anyway I'm probably going to get a gym membership and start lifting weights, because the only cardio I like is in games and also I want that Valkyrie body If anyone here does that and has ideas to share, I'm all ears!

Chat it's been exhausting seeing cis people fall all over themselves to show all of the varieties of transphobia while infantilizing us, yelling at us for the failures of their candidates, and so on We need fewer "allies" We need some more damn co-conspirators

WTF Converse? And your "We're sorry" isn't enough. Where's the investigation of how this happened? The accountability? The process change? No more Chucks for me. And y'all know how much I love my Chucks, but I won't support a company that does this

As a long, long, long, long, long time Converse buyer, I will never buy a Converse product ever again. I am sick of the virtue signalling to racists. I see this and I see a man hanged, a white robe that could be a klansman's robe and light shaped like a KKK hat. What the actual hell!?!

Why am I up so early on a weekend? Well. Had a nightmare that I was a catgirl being slowly drained of her will and put under the control (in all ways) of a post-apocalyptic explorer with a British accent And what was left of me begging me to fight back as he took more liberties with me

Sigh. Look, I was in consulting for almost 10 years before I went to product companies (and now am at the coolest place I've ever worked with the most awesome people -- ask me about GraphQL federation!) and the pressure to say what the client wants you to say intense

Anthropic has picked professional services firm Accenture to internally monitor the safety of its AI tools following a promise from its CEO to ensure the company’s increasingly powerful products receive proper oversight.
