Don't despair — you've got faith on your side in this expansion for the Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game! Inside you'll find two new character decks — Sir Waldo and River Shoulders — and two new book decks — PEACE TALKS and BATTLE GROUND.

I'm always torn in promoting my releases on social media. Do I give Zuck some pocket change so a post can reach a few thousand more people?

Give your loved ones, friends, mutuals, followers, neighbors, acquaintances, strangers and yourself the gift of a healthier holiday season and beyond by sharing this list of NIOSH-Approved N95 mask brands and models.

A lot of masks sold or even given away are fakes — and while any mask is better than none, it’s your health on the line. Covid is surging, and even the mildest case with no symptoms can leave you w #LongCOVID

Dear Microsoft. Here is a list of things I want the Start Menu to do:

* Show my installed programs
* Search my local files
* Provide access to system settings

Here is a list of things I do *not* want the Start Menu to do:

* Show the weather for a randomly-selected town near my network's public IP infrastructure
* Show tabloid headlines
* Show programs I *don't* have installed
* Search the web via Bing
* Show adverts(!)
* Attempt to engage me in conversation with a hallucinating LLM

Thanks.
