Are You Playing Dungeons & Dragons or Doing Your Taxes? “The rules are constantly being updated, but they’re still shackled to a system from the 1970s.”

1. Your goal is to retrieve your treasure from a monstrous entity.

2. All you need is a pen and paper, but expensive software makes it much easier.

3. The rules are constantly being updated, but they’re still shackled to a system from the 1970s.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

The Pure Joy of Joy You can't fake the happiness of Artemis II — or Zohran Mamdani

“Why aren’t college students protesting” stories are almost always wrong (they are protesting), omit crucial context (they were brutally punished for protesting before), and somehow suggest that 19 yr olds have more moral responsibility than elected officials three times their age

The use of “hallucinate” is a stroke of true evil genius in the AI world.

In ANY other context we’d just call them errors & the fail rate would be crystal clear.

Instead, “hallucinate” implies genuine sentience & the *absence* of real error.

Aw, this software isn’t shit! Boo’s just dreaming!

10k steps is a very average workday for me! Walk to subway, go out to grab lunch, meet a friend for dinner, take the subway home. That's 10k steps without even thinking about it.

Social movement scholar here again. So, why protest?

Nihilists were out yesterday arguing that "protests don't do anything."

More targeted activist and mutual aid groups are there in force to offer next steps. If you’re looking for a group to identify with and do more work with, you may well find them, or they’ll find you! If politics isn’t working well enough, community like this can still help.

Even if these protests have little direct result on a political level, they absolutely do bring communities together. A place to voice our rage, find solidarity, make connections, see that we’re not alone. It’s important for everyone to see how many of us do not agree with this administration. And—

Yes, it is deeply frustrating that our politicians have continued on their destructive course with no substantive opposition from a democratic system that is meant to keep them in check, and the visible protest and rage from millions of citizens doesn’t seem to push them at all. But even so—
