Bad at painting minis. Worse at taking pictures of them Lefty. TTRPG's are group therapy with math rocks.

I wrote up a very basic script tor mailing physical letters to your representatives after this week's US midterms. I highly recommend hand writing these, but obviously do whatever is within your means. Also i am almost certainly missing issues here, lord knows there's so many, so add your own

Dear [REPRESENTATIVE] My name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [AREA], and I am contacting you in the wake of the recent 2026 midterms in order to share my feelings on a number of issues which are important to me. While I voted for Democrats this election, I have been frustrated with the lack of action from the party these past two years to meaningfully fight against countering the harmful legislation introduced by the Republican Party. I do not believe the Democratic party has met this moment, and I want to see that change. The issues are as follows: I want to see the President of the United States, Donald Trump, impeached and his entire administration investigated and prosecuted. I wand to see support and protection for Transgender Rights, both for adults and minors. I want to see ICE Abolished and prosecuted, and I want those whom ICE has captured to be freed, and families healed. I want an end to the War with Iran, which the United States wrongfully started. I want a free Palestine and for an end to the United State's support for Isreal and its genocide of the Palestinian people. I want Age Verification legislation to be overturned, and for user privacy on the internet to be protected. Likewise, I want protections for free expression, art, and pornography, particularly with regards to censorship and overreach by payment processors such as Visa and Mastercard. I want heavy AI regulation, as well as regulation against the building of AI datacenters. I want Elon Musk and the Department of Governmental Efficiency to be investigated and prosecuted. I want Free Healthcare. I want Universal Basic Income. And Lastly, I want Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to be removed as Majority Leaders of the Senate and House, as I do not believe either of them are capable of meeting this moment, and will in fact stand in the way of real progress being made. Sincerely; [YOUR NAME] [SIGNATURE] [DATE]

"until infighting explodes around just how the Democrats should spend their newfound political capital." Yeah wet blanket extraordinaire @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social made me switch back to bullying politicians yesterday. #bluewave

Many savvy pundits on X framed the 2024 election as a massive political realignment and Bluesky as a “copium” den for progressives in a bubble. Boy, were they wrong. @joeberkowitz.bsky.social on how Bluesky was right all along: bit.ly/3WPcAbn

Hakeem’s office is 718-237-2211 if you want to call and let him know what you think about this pathetically weak shit right out the gate And wherever you are, call your reps often to demand they replace Jeffries & Schumer as leaders We are not doing this anymore @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Jeffries: "I haven't had a single member of the House Democratic caucus talk to me about impeachment. We've been relentlessly focused on affordability and accountability."

In my euphoria over the mid term results Jeffries, Schumer and Obama immediately brought me down to earth. We cannot bring about the change while "high road" centrists are at the reigns. Call your reps, call the newly elected, tell them Dems need new leadership.

Not sure if I've posted these yet but this is the rogue trader entourage I did about a year ago. Painted in the colors of the Fortunus dynasty, a homebrew dynasty that first started in a rogue trader campaign 15ish years ago These models made me hate detail and filigree

I have been routinely accused of being dramatic and extreme in my politics but I'm back to the thought that there is no reforming the US system of governance/the constitution. It must be thrown out and we must start from scratch. No idea how to bring this about yet. General strike first I suppose.

ysgarron.bsky.social@ysgarron.bsky.social · 7mo ago

So I feel good about reducingy pile of shame of unconstructed boxes. Only have a necrons immortals box and some french bolt action infantry left to assemble. The nefarious horde of primed minis in my cabinet standing behind me...
