fuck my gay life. pharmacist asked for my ID when I was picking up my testosterone and instead of my driver’s license, I accidentally grabbed the fool tarot card I keep behind it in my phone case and went to hand that to her

The Evolution of Dice !
I’ve been wanting to do this one for a long time.
Is it pretty understandable? Crits welcome!This is the content I’m here for. A+
A cute presentation of gaming prehistory. If not for the quirks of ungulate anatomy, we might not have developed games around such a deep foundational reliance on dice.

Biden (or rather his administration) actually did do a few good things like acting on antitrust laws and marginally improving some regulations, but in the end, none of that matters because he did nothing to prevent an authoritarian dictatorship from coming to power and immediately sweeping all that away. His only lasting legacy are tens or hundreds of thousands of murdered Palestinians.
This is the only Biden post that really strikes at the core of my feelings. He DID do a lot of good stuff, undeniably, but in the midst of a crisis he didn’t do the thing that REALLY mattered, preventing fascism from getting power in America. Because of that, the only legacy from his time is his failures
At best, his administration was just a brief inflection in America’s slide towards tyranny, civil war, and collapse. Not a reversal of the decline; not even a slowing of the decline; but a slowing of the rate at which the decline was accelerating.
Just out of interest, what could he have done? I read a book from Bierling “the disunited states: the political system of the US and the future of democracy” last year and I can’t think of one thing Biden in particular as a president could have done.
Ended the filibuster, for one; used the outrage over Roe v. Wade to expand and pack the Supreme Court; started D.C. and Puerto Rico on the path to statehood. Hell, the Dems probably would have at least won Michigan if he hadn’t cut a blank cheque to Netanyahu for exterminating the Palestinians. And, as the last year has shown, there are a number of other, dubiously legal things that Presidents can apparently get away with. A scorched-earth “lawfare” campaign against the GOP would not also have been outside the ream of possibility.
Also, unironically, he could’ve not run for a second term.
It was a pretty open secret that most Democratic voters had only begrudgingly voted for him the first time and after a full term where he just Let Things Happen, fewer people saw him as an acceptable option. Sure there’d always be that core of “Vote blue no matter who” constituents but that group is absolutely shrinking and the Democratic party should’ve realized that sooner. Had the campaign begun as Harris’s or they’d gotten just A Competent Person Who’s Younger Than 70 in the first place they would’ve had a much stronger turn out.
Heck, I think Harris might’ve won if her campaign hadn’t been “I will be exactly the same as Biden policy-wise”. Choosing to back up literally everything your former running mate decided to do during the most controversial year of his term is not the way to win over people who didn’t want to vote for him.

I feel like having wings violently burst out of your back would just feel really good. Like itd feel awful but also itd feel really satisfying.
