Pretty much this. @the_strix and I have been watching it and we keep going, "...I'm sure we're going to get to those great episodes soon!"

We finished S2 Ep1.

(So we just rewatched Rogue One, which both of us love for so many reasons)
It's not terrible. It's just....okay? Like, decent enough to keep watching? But super safe and kind of just plodding along.

Honestly, the best part of The Mandolarion for me is the concept art at the end.
Oh boy. Watched S2 E2 and...uh. Is this just Monster of the Week now? This show feels...old. Like outdated.

Also, Baby Yoda and the eggs? Not funny or cute. That was a pretty significant misfire and also, seriously, how much more can you lean on Baby Yoda to keep people engaged?
...maybe a lot. People seem to be going WIIIILD for Baby Yoda, but seriously, it's one hell of a craven marketing ploy with no substance.

Come on. 10 episodes in...like 5+ hours and I know about as much as I did from the commercials. This is paper-thin.

Some random thoughts on a recent controversy in the ttrpg space.

When a well-known white figure in streaming agrees to play a game or join a stream of a PoC creator, they aren't taking a spot away from a PoC who could have played in that seat.
The reason you ask that celeb to join is because you're trying to raise the profile for the PoC creator's game or stream. That's the priority. That's the goal. The white celeb isn't doing it for themselves--they are trying to be a good ally and elevate/raise attention for PoCs.
That is something--at least currently--is hard to do without white allyship. If the stream was super popular already, then yes, it'd be a different story. But for an indie creator who doesn't have an outsized audience, the goal is marketing and pr. And the white ally brings this.

For all my social media manager friends, this is an important read.

Actually, this is also a super important read for anyone who HIRES social media managers.

This one quote that sticks out: "Social media managers are making important — and very public — decisions all the time.
"They need to respond to news and conversations quickly to be effective. The public voice and image of companies, media outlets, public figures, and institutions are in their hands at a very delicate time..."
"Yet their job is still often seen as something anyone could do, or left to those who are just getting started in their careers.

I try hard to keep an optimistic outlook, but this is incredibly dire. On a level that we probably haven't seen in decades. It will ensure a Conservative Court that will remain for generations.

In practical terms, what does this mean? Well, first:
Roe v Wade will be overturned.
Marriage equality will be overturned.
Obamacare will be overturned.
ICE will be protected.
Corporate power will grow unchecked because lawsuits will be ruled in their favor.
A contested 2020 election will be ruled in Trump's favor (ie Bush v Gore).
And that's just the beginning. I see an erosion in a separation of church and state with this ruling--from school prayer to what your doctor or pharmacist can do on religious grounds, and much more.

Most of my political contributions have been to women (@ewarren, @PramilaJayapal, @AOC, @LindseyBoylan, @SaraGideon, @JCisnerosTX, @AmyMcGrathKY) running for office and I have some thoughts on why.

Women in politics (and elsewhere) a thread.
The first and most obvious reason for why I put my energies in supporting women in politics are the enormous historic discrepancies.

@LindseyBoylan tweeted about the New York's 10th Congressional seat today and how only 1 women has ever held it.

That's just the start.
Here are some excellent stats on state by state: cawp.rutgers.edu/state-by-state

Consistently Red States are among the worst for gender equality in politics.

However, even Blue States aren't hitting the mark and never have.

You can also see historic data if you click on states.

With @bigbadcon around the corner, I've had a lot of folks ask about the PoC Meet & Greet: what it's about, what we hope to accomplish, why it's needed, etc. So let me try and explain.

A thread. #BBC19
Researchers have been studying networking (connecting with others for social or business relationships) for awhile now and most data has it that 70% to 85% of all jobs are acquired through networking/networks.
There is more data that states up to 80% of all jobs are not even listed publicly: they are filled internally or via networking.
