I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

hivemind question.

I have looked and cannot find a match, but thought you all might have some insight. I have a friend whose pic on FB is now what looks like section of a flag with 3 stripes. They are from top to bottom Green/Purple/Yellow. Friends pronouns are E/Em/Eir and name has gone from Daniel to Dan to Dani in the last couple of years. Dani is married to a gay man. I have always know Dani as a gay man.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congrats, Matt!

Oh, no, shrift. Good luck

I have my last furlough day tomorrow (using vacation time so I will get paid). I need to go grocery shopping, and I should definitely do yard work. Hopefully I will not sleep all day. Again.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

They are from top to bottom Green/Purple/Yellow.

I think that's a Pride flag for trigender.

I guess I'll wait until their help line opens up tomorrow to call and ask what the hell I'm supposed to do now.

Meara, are you in a part of the country where xeriscaping is practical?

Congratulations, Matt!

I, uh, don't know if you've all noticed, but we seem to be having another wave of #metoo. I've seen reports of multiple women coming forward about histories of sexual harassment and worse involving various men, including Chris Avellone(co-writer of Planescape: Torment, dammit) and this guy.

Atropa, did you and your fella used to be Wizards of the Coast people? Or am I thinking of someone else?

I'm in Seattle and currently the side "yard" is basically gravel and dirt with a few weeds. My plan was to have somewhere for my future dog to use the bathroom if needed, and to play fetch (it's got house on one side, fence on the other, gate at the end, and the rocks/steps at the other end, leading up to my patio).

Also I have never heard of a purple/green/yellow pride flag, and I thought I was pretty up on my pride flags! Maybe the person is proud of Mardi Gras?

We are ex WotC people. We never would have met if not for them! So yeah, it's been interesting (and not entirely surprising) to see the whisper network finally get amplified.

The news broke about someone we worked with (and I gamed thanks to my LARPing past), and while I knew he was a shallow man-baby who felt entitled to women's attention, I didn't realize the depths of his awfulness.
