Sean James went out of his way to cite an article with no byline on a Substack whose "About" page notes is AI generated. I know we're not going for maximum prestige here but come on...

A bunch of cars at a gas station during the 1970s oil crisis

A bunch of cars at a gas station during the 1970s oil crisis

Would've been cool if in the 70's people were like "hmm maybe we shouldn't be entirely dependent on oil" instead of "hmm maybe we need our military to make sure we keep getting oil"

Again this is a dumb framing by Sean James that would be fine labeled β€œopinion”. The end of COVID was a massively inflationary event, mirroring the deflationary event of it beginning (they were literally paying people to take oil). This isn’t an β€œodd” claim unless you’re reaching to own the libs

Sean James stories should probably just be labeled β€œOpinion” by default.

> …because Glass is not a fan of Trump…

Nowhere did Glass say that. The administration gutted the institution and diminished the memorial. I’m sure Glass is no fan of Trump but this was clearly in response to those changes

Proposal: you will not receive any law enforcement money from the federal government if any police department in your state employs someone who clocked hours coded ZYR3

Also very possible they’re getting a huge traffic surge with all this going on and the indexer is falling behind

I was just looking to see if anyone mentioned this. Even if you just search β€œidentified” it’s all results about the victim identification

The thing with ORC that gives me pause is that by default it leaves a lot up to interpretation for the line between rules and lore/reserved. Like if you have Troika and the character definitions imply the setting. Or, is a random encounter table a procedure or reserved

I’d add that if you do host files on your website, also upload them to a stable third party like Internet Archive (not just relying on the Wayback machine) to reduce the risk of lost media

Oh sweet, it’s not showing up in Apple Podcasts for some reason but I can probably yank the RSS from Spotify

My best guess is that JG isn’t allowed to do any Kickstarters again until a β€œgood faith effort” to pay back the first. This arrangement is probably setup to let them run future campaigns

The TikTok ban targeted ByteDance more than TikTok specifically so I think the same ban applies to it. Not sure if the current SCOTUS action is limited to TikTok though

Is Dungeon Bound kind of TotBS vibes but with a PbtA flair?

It’s always been a little weird for folks to be using a fully private platform for official statements

At this point they should just have in-store ordering kiosks with employees meeting you at the register

But also Fox News can be somewhat defanged with more interviews like Buttigieg. Walz was decent at it too but then they made him go safe after the VP selection
