    @APBBlue it’s like the old saying goes: “if you don’t want your directional states to be confused, don’t make them both rectangular. And give ‘em some character!”

    This magazine cover is so full of falsehoods. World’s greatest game? Yikes. How monopoly is like life? No. Win every time? Stop. #Monopoly is the worst. A complete corruption of The Landlord’s Game, which was intended to be an illustration of the economic theories of Henry George. Its main point was to show how concentration of land ownership creates societal ills. Now it’s just an interminable game that leaves everyone miserable. #Georgism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Landlord&amp;#...

    Today is #ArmenianGenocide Remembrance Day, marking the arrest and deportation of hundreds of Armenian leaders and intellectuals in Constantinople on April 24th, 1915. Most were eventually killed. Deportations and massacres of Armenians had already begun in other parts of the Ottoman Empire and would continue. One million Armenians were killed, many in concentration camps or on death marches. I&amp;#39;m a descendent of Genocide survivors. Let their histories not be forgotten.

    Gonna start using the #ShareGoodNewsToo hashtag (h/t @adapalmer) on the rare occasions that I run across some good news to post. Also started following the hashtag. Let’s make this a bigger thing.

    My bag got pulled for extra screening. The reason? I had a folded up newspaper in it. When the TSA agent pulled it out, she said, “A newspaper‽ Where did you get that? Who has a newspaper in 2026??”
