I like Voyager a lot better than the current name.

There were two cases they decided on today about student loan debt. The first was from folks who would only getting 10k instead of 20. Their argument boiled down to they got more so it’s unfair. The court unanimously ruled that they don’t even have standing to sue so they threw it out. Which is a good thing because it maintains that you have to be experiencing something harmful in order to sue.

The second decision was a state, I forget which one, suing the federal government. Essentially what was ruled is that eliminating student loan debt is all fine and dandy you just can’t do it through an executive order citing the Heroes Act. The HA is a 9/11 era contingency for the president to make unilateral decisions quickly in times of crisis/war on certain things. The court said that what Biden was trying to do would impact economies too much and the decision is outside of the scope of what the HA is for. tl;dr if you want to do this get it through Congress. The decision was 6/3 along party lines. I don’t agree with this decision btw it’s just my understanding of the rationale.

I love His Dark Materials. The HDM trilogy is my favorite series ever since I first read them in 5th grade. Phillip Pullman made some truly remarkable characters and the worldbuilding is so, so good. I think the show is about as close as you could get to staying faithful to the books. I’d highly recommend checking them out if you’re a reader. The last book, the Amber Spyglass, is especially good.

I started playing around 3.3 when I was dating a guy who introduced me to the game. I’ve always been a Final Fantasy fan but I hadn’t taken the plunge on 14. It totally kicked my old school RuneScape addiction for a few years. The guy is now long gone but I am still going strong with my one true love, Graha Tia.

Depending on how many players and how many shenanigans occur I’d say 30-60 minutes. It’s a full game. One players turn is probably 1-3 minutes or so. It probably wouldn’t be very satisfying to not play out the whole game, though.

Be forewarned that the author has not released the third book and last I checked there’s no release date on the horizon

My two favorites so far this year are Babel by RF Kuang and The Women Could Fly by Megan Giddings

Whoa this is really, really well done!

Red Dragon Inn is pretty fun and easy to learn. Essentially you’re an adventuring party hanging out at the tavern. You can gamble, pass drinks out to folks, and engage in other shenanigans. Each character has some different abilities or strong suits. Last person to pass out wins. You can even reskin some of the character abilities to match up with your own OCs if you want to do some extra RP.

I’m having the same thing happen to me. I wonder if the button is just a placeholder for now. I commented on something yesterday as a workaround so I could find it that way

I just started my whole fediverse experience with wefwef this afternoon and it seems solid so far

Seconding love letter it’s a great game

It is seriously impressive! I’m excited to see the app grow
