Then the conceit of this inconstant stay, Sets you most rich in youth before my sight, Where wasteful time debateth with decay To change your day of youth to sullied night, And all in war with Time for love of you, As he takes from you,

I only manage to sleep four hours, and then doze fitfully the rest of the night. I am literally so tired of this.

Looking up new systems for a TTRPG podcast,
Trying to find something that allows splashing in two anachronistic settings (ex. modern day guns but also magic swords)

Kevin Crawfords "without number" series could work.. but i dont know if folk have other systems they know of

Rare to see Zack being given the opportunity to actually answer.

By Kuensberg no less. Chief fluffer of #JohnsonTheButcher and orchestrator of more racism and division than perhaps anyone bar Farage et al.
Comical when such people try to portray sagacity.

Rare creative digression: I've written a song.

Had the tune in my head for some time, finally sat down to write the lyrics, and did it in two hours.

Of all the injustices dramatized on Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, it was probably the smallest, most petty that infuriated me.

They wouldn’t let “damaged” handmaids go to the party. They wouldn’t let those whose eyes they’d gouged out, hands cut off, faces burnt, attend their own honor.

Some reasons to be cautious abt the Vanity Fair story (there are more I won't yet share).

1) Cole's claims to knowledge of this is very attenuated.

2) The model Discoveries via Dutch reconstruction of GRU hacks matches how OTHER RU disinformation was spread.
