'We want the respect we deserve.' Quinnipiac women's rugby team continues fighting to reinstate program

So you can have about the most successful women's rugby program, give rise to the single most popular rugby figure on the globe, and yoink! And the US couldn't get women's rugby into the NCAA? How long were we needing "just 17 more varsity programs"? 10 years? More?
We're going backwards.
Does Joe Mangiello know he is in this?
we all know I have no life, so:
Holy SHIT someone found the test pressing of Robert Johnson's Cross Road Blues and it is clear as a PIN www.openculture.com/2026/04/reco...
Counterpoint: imagine Matthew Berry mispronouncing roulette.
Forgot to say, immediately adjacent to it, he built a tiny one bedroom home - maybe 800 square feet.
My dream home is a big library/office/everything room like that with a small bedroom, small kitchen, and garage shop.
My stepfather built a library/office out in Fort Davis. 40 x 30, lined with shelves, big window/desk, big table to spread books out, nice couches and reading chairs. Probably 600 linear feet of shelf space (and only maybe 24 feet of that fiction). It was glorious.
I will probably watch this but I will hate everything about it that makes Reagan look good.

How does one "acquire pedigree"? Is there a catalog to order from or something?
Best music video ever.
The closest is Recon, which IIRC is only available in Commando School for characters created with Book 4: Mercenary.
In some Traveller actual plays I follow, Recon is treated as a 5E style Perception check (a mechanic also absent from Traveller).
Also a Gen Xer and since I was a teenager the people I have trusted least are other Gen Xers. It seemed like every year of my teens that my peers got more conservative and untrustworthy. Don't trust "us".
And yeah, it probably started with Reagan, his worshippers, Jerry Falwell, and Ralph Reed.
I didn’t know this, did you? Amazing!
Good point!
Irony that this article is paywalled or no?
TTRPG about me:
1st game: D&D (Holmes basic 1977)
Latest game: Swords & Wizardy
Longest game: HackMaster 4e (running)
Favorite game: Traveller
Favorite mechanics: Traveller character generation
Favorite setting: what I'm working on
Favorite art: Den Beauvais' "Stalemate"
I think it's more on earth.com - but I really might still it for a Delta Green type game. Or maybe it's the start to a X-Com: Terror From The Deep based campaign?
That slug is doing a lot of work for "pre-programmed robot submarine scanning ice melt patterns didn't show up where it was supposed to."
But as a Delta Green adventure ad: perfect.
i have very rapidly become incapable of thinking about anything that isn’t this video
Misread but in an interesting way:
I was raised Roman Chaotic, was even and Altared Boy.
Reminds me of Traveller's Snapshot rules - an action point combat system where you could spend 1 AP to Curse - because sometimes you had a point left over and nothing to spend it on.
Ketchup on hotdogs is totally fine.
As is pineapple on pizza.
