    If you're complaining that I'm tweeting about politics instead of games: It's not "politics" to want to save friends' lives. #SaveACA

        @mossdogmusic Saving lives is absolutely political. It's what politics should be about. What it isn't: Petty.

        What's with this need to deny public figures any opinion on politics? Everyone else has their own voice, right?

        Too many of the tabletop game designers who were my heroes have had to resort to GoFundMe drives to help pay medical bills.
