@beep @zachleat FOIL COVER

@zachleat I'm down with that time slot if you are. Looking forward to it! Hopefully there'll be a bit of time to trash-talk Gutenberg components along the way.

@zachleat I’m jeff@autogram.is, fwiw!

@zachleat LMK if you’d like to jump onto Zoom or something else. Would love to see a nice inflection point for “easy eleventy” onboarding!

@zachleat absolutely. i’m heading to. Conf on thursday, but sometime before then or starting next week would work well!

@zachleat @scottjenson @Meyerweb @brad_frost LMK if you’re interested in comparing notes, I’ve been neck deep in a WP project and my own 11ty site simultaneously, so I’ve got… some thoughts :D

@mhoye what the hell? “You can bet that…” can I? CAN I?

Consider two examples of legal responsibility that the American right has argued for in recent years.

Torture of prisoners: “It might be necessary, for special circumstances, and having laws that prevent it would discourage brave souls from risking legal consequences.”

Abortion: “Punish doctors and pregnant women with the full force of law, and make interstate travel illegal. If there’s a medical need for an abortion, it’s hardly our fault doctors won’t risk it.”

But the trick (because there's always a trick) is that I still end up enjoying Blades a lot because I rather shamelessly am happy to *plan anyway*.

So what makes it work? Well, there are player answers and GM answers, s let's start from the player side with the two most critical bits - Pacing and generosity.

TFW you realize the shitposting tumblr you and your partner threw together on a weekend is actually doing numbers

Like: It's a solid pitch! However, currently undercut by the fact that Acquia's marketing team is almost certainly being held back with CHAINS to keep them from blasting out a “Do you think Matt Mullenweg will notice YOUR web site? [ominous music]” email

You know, I have to admire the chutzpah

@wesruv @Eclipsephase FYI, they also have a tactical tabletop game coming out based on that system, which I’ve got high hopes for :D

@wesruv Ecpipse Phase - They’re here, too, at @Eclipsephase … we should meet up sometime!
