This week we're jumping into the space headlines for the past few weeks. It's been busy, and some exciting things are happening! A couple of companies are moving into the space solar power arena--something we've long advocated--and that's welcome progress. Starship is set to fly Starship test number 13, and a lot is riding on this--the system is overdue for some proof of concept to keep up with NASA's HLS contract. An exoplanet spotted a decade ago has shown signs of a potentially habitable atmosphere; there are landslides--big ones--on Pluto, and evidence of "space candy" sugars in an interstellar cloud are in the news. Finally, SpaceX is doubling down on their big defense contracts with a well-funded US Space Force. Join us for all the latest!

In this solo episode, I'm sharing my perspective as a coach, lifelong athlete, and mom raising two athletic boys. My goal isn't to raise Division I or professional athletes. It's to help my kids build a foundation for a lifetime of athleticism. I talk about why I believe in exposing kids to multiple sports, developing fundamental movement skills, and giving them opportunities to learn how to move, compete, and interact with different coaches and teammates. We also get into the bigger lessons sport can teach: resilience, bravery, teamwork, body awareness, and how to navigate hard things. This isn't about forcing a specific athletic outcome. It's about helping our kids build confidence, competence, and a positive relationship with movement that can carry them throughout their lives. If you're raising athletic kids or navigating the world of youth sports, I hope this episode gives you a broader perspective on what we're really trying to build for the long term.

Today we continue our Building Blocks of Effective Community Arts Practice series with two longtime fellow travelers: activist poet and cultural organizer Alice Lovelace, and educator, cultural policy leader, and Animating Democracy co-founder Barbara Shaffer Bacon.Together we wrestle with a question many artists are asking right now: Should we prioritize safety—or bravery?Drawing on decades of experience—from the culture wars of the 1980s to today's debates over censorship, public funding, and democracy—they explore how artists can respond with creativity rather than fear.Three reasons to listen• Creative courage takes many forms. Bravery isn't only public protest. It can mean telling difficult truths, creating work without waiting for permission,• Healthy cultural ecosystems make courage possible. Artists, organizations, funders, and communities can build networks of mutual support that allow creative work to flourish even during periods of political and economic uncertainty.• Artists possess tools society needs right now. From improvisation and storytelling to visioning and collective imagination, the very skills artists practice every day may be among our most important resources for helping communities navigate uncertainty and build a more hopeful future.Notable MentionsPeopleAlice Lovelace: Poet, educator, Executive Director of ArtsXchange, and longtime leader in community-based arts, cultural organizing, and social justice.Barbara Shaffer Bacon: Cultural policy leader, educator, and founding co-director of Animating Democracy, widely recognized for advancing arts-based civic engagement and cultural policy.Lenny Sloan: Beloved community arts advocate, cultural organizer, and longtime colleague remembered as one of the inspirations behind this conversation series.Maynard Jackson: Atlanta's first African American mayor, remembered for expanding civic participation and public investment in the arts.Shirley Franklin: Former mayor of Atlanta whose administration continued significant investment in the city's cultural infrastructure.Robert Peters: Mashpee Wampanoag artist, writer, and cultural leader whose work integrates Indigenous traditions, storytelling, ceremony, and community healing.Roberta Uno: Founder of New WORLD Theater and one of America's leading advocates for culturally specific and community-based theater.Organizations & InitiativesCenter for the Study of Art & Community: Producer of ART IS CHANGE and advancing arts-based community development and cultural organizing.ArtsXchange: Atlanta-based interdisciplinary arts organization dedicated to community cultural development, creative leadership, and social justice.Animating Democracy: National initiative advancing civic engagement, community development, and social change through the arts.New WORLD Theater: Groundbreaking multicultural theater that elevated artists and communities of color while reshaping American theater.Public Art Network: National professional network supporting public artists, public art programs, and civic arts leadership.Arts on Prescription: An emerging healthcare movement integrating arts participation into medical care through clinician referrals and social prescribing.PlacesAtlanta, Georgia: Principal case study illustrating strengths and vulnerabilities of long-term community arts ecosystems.New Bedford, Massachusetts: Example of a city where artists, government, and community organizations have built a collaborative cultural ecosystem.Alameda, California: Home base of host Bill Cleveland and the Center for the Study of Art & Community.Minneapolis, Minnesota: Referenced as an example of a deeply interconnected community arts ecosystem.Key Concepts & PracticesArts Ecosystems: The interconnected relationships among artists, organizations, funders, institutions, and communities that collectively sustain creative life.Cross-sector Collaboration: Partnerships linking artists with public health, education, environmental justice, youth development, and community planning.Creative Commons (Community Sense): Bill Cleveland's metaphor describing artistic communities where collaboration, mentoring, reciprocity, and mutual aid become cultural norms.Arts on Prescription: A growing international practice in which healthcare professionals prescribe arts participation as part of treatment for physical, mental, and social well-being.*******Art Is CHANGE is a podcast that chronicles the power of art and community transformation, providing a platform for activist artists to share their experiences and gain the skills and strategies they need to thrive as agents of social change.Through compelling conversations with artist activists, artivists, and cultural organizers, the podcast explores how art and activism intersect to fuel cultural transformation and drive meaningful change. Guests discuss the challenges and triumphs of community arts, socially engaged art, and creative placemaking, offering insights into artist mentorship, building credibility, and communicating impact.Episodes delve into the realities of artist isolation, burnout, and funding for artists, while celebrating the role of artists in residence and creative leadership in shaping a more just and inclusive world. Whether you're an emerging or established artist for social justice, this podcast offers inspiration, practical advice, and a sense of solidarity in the journey toward art and social change.
Designing a board game that works well for exactly two players is a very different challenge from designing one that supports a range of player counts. Many games include a two-player mode, but board games such as Patchwork and Jaipur show that a dedicated head-to-head experience can be unique and not simply an adapted and reduced version of a game that is really aimed at larger player counts. In this article, I want to look at the design challenge these dedicated two-player-only games present.Read the full article here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2026/07/14/the-two-body-problem-design-challenges-of-two-player-only-games-topic-discussion/Useful LinksPatchwork review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2020/11/21/patchwork-digital-eyes/Jaipur review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2020/02/29/jaipur-saturday-review/Building Blocks of Tabletop Game Design: https://www.routledge.com/Building-Blocks-of-Tabletop-Game-Design-An-Encyclopedia-of-Mechanisms/Engelstein-Shalev/p/book/9781032015811Rules of Play: https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262240451/rules-of-play/Fundamentals of Game Design: https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Fundamentals-of-Game-Design-by-Ernest-Adams/9780321929679MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/)Music by: BensoundLicense code: 9FDOOSFAVUSZQWDPArtist: : Lunar YearsMusic: "in between violence" provided by mobygratis.SupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlogPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblogWebsite: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/(Photo by Planet Volumes on Unsplash)

In this solo episode, I share one of my favorite metaphors for understanding how desistance actually unfolds in practice — because it rarely looks the way most parents hope it will. Many parents carry a fantasy version of desistance in their heads: a tearful moment of confession, an apology, a sudden reversal. That's almost never what happens. What actually happens is slower, messier, and far less dramatic — but still hopeful, if you know what you're looking at.The metaphor I use is the hermit crab. When a hermit crab outgrows its shell, it must find a new one before abandoning the old one. That terrifying moment of exposure between shells is something the crab instinctively avoids. For your trans-identified child, the alter ego identity is that old shell — it provides psychological structure and protection, answers the question "who am I?", and is doing real work for them even when it's causing harm. Desistance doesn't happen until a new shell exists to replace it.I walk parents through what those building blocks actually look like — moments of femininity, embodiment, taste, competence, nurturance, and authentic connection — and why it's so important not to connect those signs directly to gender. The way you respond to those building blocks either reinforces them or demolishes them. I also expand the definition of identity-building beyond gender expression to include real-world skills, relationships, experiences, and sources of self-esteem. The goal isn't just for the old shell to fall away — it's for your child to become someone who doesn't need a label to answer the question of who they are.This episode doubles as a bonus lesson in ROGD Repair.
