Museum of Future 9/11s
Added 2025-02-14 09:25:20 +0000 UTC
We go back into the whimsical world of flying cars, and Dubai’s plan to make them largely mandatory by 2026. Also - Riley invents a historical Euro-board game called Shadow Doge, ordinary Americans are given formal permission by the President to get their skin reversed by cartels, and fraud is legal again the world over.
the healthiest reaction to seeing the characters 9,/,1 & 1.

in a weird brain moment, I read the title of this episode as containing a fraction, ie "museum of future nine elevenths."
I guess that means I forgot.

I propose that gendered competitive sports are inherently a discriminatory product of a hierarchical society. In the USA (and most of the world) the practice of sport as a capitalist experience is a major arm of the patriarchy.
Sport is not war, nor business. We have wrought an abomination.

Our aunts took me and my sister to the theatrical re-releases, and I got heavy into the novels.
I was at Courtship of Princess Leia, and the Thrawn novels basically as soon as I could get adult books out on my own recognizance.

For November specifically: You helped me change myself in a way I thought was impossible, if things breakdown to the point I am no longer within the range of your voice I wanted to thank you personally for everything you've done and will continue to do. Our voices reach the people who need to hear them, somehow.

A friend of mine is a really talented board game designer even though she's mostly doing this as a hobby right now. My best friend's bf is a graphic designer for Asmodee, and collects and also designs board games (one of his favourites is Scythe which you could definitely take as a base to build Shadow Doge on top of). I'd happily give you their contacts

Not only do I know the song, I was one of Barret's crew. It was Me and Red who had the job of reinforcing the cracked 12 pounder gun barrels with duct tape. Good old Red, he wasn't handsome, but he sure was handy. Which was especially important after the first broadside cut both mine off at the wrists.

Adding to the chorus of yes to Shadow Doge.
I'm not a professional designer but I'd be happy to be involved in play testing / write a few bits if it gets to that stage.
In my mind it could take something from John Company and work in the bits about the financialisation of renaissance Italy from the Borgias No Gods No Mayors episode.

I found a photo I took of it, it was called "The Complete Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook" by Joshua Piven and David Borgenicht. I have shitty phone camera scans of the text if anyone's curious how bad it was. The "How to determine the gender of your date" chapter was right after the "How to tell if your date is an axe murderer" one. There were also sections on how to date three people at once (and not in a poly way) and how to spot breast implants.

it's played at a 1 to 1 timescale so you have to have actual children to take your place in the game in case you don't outlive the Doge.
