Getting the runaround from @HiltonHotels - the hotel we're supposed to go to is underwater and, unsurprisingly, unable to answer the phone. You'd think calling the parent org would be the right answer, and yet...

Check out this thread, some fantastic talent here.
Okay, so one of the things I've really enjoyed discovering in both the tabletop and video gaming communities is that there is a growing number of women involved on every level. If you work in gaming and are a woman or non-binary person, let's shout it out below! #WomenInGaming

A lot of these are problems that emerge when you decide to go paid with one of these services, and you're now dealing with 100TB+ of data. Cloud storage kicks ass as a floppy drive replacement (yes, I'm old), but still kind of groans as a hard drive.

To illustrate my level of frustration, I am considering trying Microsoft's offering. (But not Google. Google is a great cheap storage dump, but its syncing is a repeated punch in the face.)

A while back, growing tired of Dropbox's challenges on Apple devices, I opted to go all in on iCloud. Not a week goes by that I don't have an opportunity to regret that decision. "Eventually" is not a super satisfying sync model.

I needed some Pilot Hi-Tec C refills, and it ended up being cheaper to just buy a pack of cheap capped pens than to buy the refills. Problem is, even the cheap Hi-Tech Cs are just freaking phenomenal to write with, so now I need more refills.

So I don’t know if it’s final but currently Smith v GenCon appears to have an order that says dismissed with prejudice.

My optimistic space opera game powered by Fate was prominently featured in this Polygon article about hopepunk TTRPGs "that prioritize care, community, optimism, and joy." Thanks a ton to @EvilHatOfficial for the SRD that made this possible. https://t.co/zioiW0pvWg

Wow, they must really put the @Chase reps on the clock. I have never had a customer service rep literally hang up on me before when I did not have the # of a card that had gotten lost.

I have opinions about this of the sort that would apparently get me in trouble in New Zealand, so suffice it to say Cam's a good friend and I am unhappy that this is necessary.

Pen order landed today, and I'm delighted. If you like really slim fountain pens, the Lamy CP1 seems really excellent. (Shown with G2 for comparison).

Random D&D tip applicable to many games: If you have a ton of ideas of things you want to do, one of the absolute best thing you can do with those ideas is ask another player's character if they could do it. Using your ideas to hand the spotlight to someone else is a pro move
