Lagoon?

I'm gonna say Takenoko and Fun Facts.

Quite the opposite

2020 earthquake I was on the toilet.

We had a permanent Switch room for Super Smash Bros tournaments, and every day we would play board games. Not everything about working in person was bad! Just the working part!

Don't ever offer you a bad deal.

Thank YOU!

Signed!

"Beech chip dig pit" is my new "cellar door."

We've got flowers blooming in Utah. It's been a bad (very warm) winter...

The bag they came in is already so busted...

A collage of images of Cursed Court, designed by Andrew Hansen, art by Lee Moyer, published by Atlas Games: a doodle on a red sticky note showing the title and a snake curling around the edges; closeup of The Merchant, a woman in a high collared cloak; a stack of orange coins topped by a pointy crown on the game board; a white crown and coins on the board; the box cover

Cursed Court is the Game of the Week! Everyone knows this council is corrupt but you just need to know what their plans are. Is a festival coming up? A secret wedding, perhaps? Will something happen at the opera? It could happen today!

I always love more drawings/photos. You could do a knolling image of their favorite things, or a list of their favorite haunts.

A zine of The Sasquatch Diaries by Sajan Rai. The cover shows the Sasquatch sitting in a field, directing the flow of blood from his spiked club with his very long tongue.

The comic from January 13th, 2026, showing the Sasquatch smiling and blocking a man from getting on a subway car. The diary entry reads: "I think I ruined a man's day"

If you aren't reading The Sasquatch Diaries, do yourself a favor and follow @planetsmudge.bsky.social to get caught up. There's gold every day.

My mother's very proud.

Chocolate Chex, a.k.a. the best cereal ever? No need to apologize!

Incredible.

A collage of images of Minecraft: Builders & Biomes, designed by Ulirch Blum and published by Ravensburger: a set of TNT, rotten potato, and sword tokens; a giant wooden cube made up of big wooden cubes; a sticky note doodle of the title of the game; the box cover; a creeper enemy tile; a player board with some buildings on it; player pieces among enemies and buildings.

**Minecraft: Builders & Biomes** is the Game of the Week! I initially picked this up from a thrift store as trade fodder, but I decided to play it just to handle these gigantic cubes.

For every cool component, there is uncool piece to match. Very jumbled production.

It's 2026 and I saw Sam Raimi's Send Help. It's so nice to see him back in his element.

The box for Acquire, featuring a giant businessman towering over a city skyline.

Definitely Acquire, the version with the chunky pieces.

I think I might get back into Disco Elysium. I've been playing a lot of action games and I want to slow down a bit.

Rolled credits on Hollow Knight: Silksong. What a game! Hornet is great, the story was great, the world is great, just all wonderful!

A collage of images of the game Samarkand Bazaar by Sid Sackson: a player card with 5 cubes on it and point table; an array of money cards; a green camel piece on a score track; a red camel piece on a space that has arrows pointing to and from it; a blue sticky note doodle of the title; a wooden die with cubes on it and a swirl of 5 colors; some market cards with 5 cubes pictured on them; a few cubes behind a screen; the box; a deck of cards with different arrangements of cubes

Samarkand Bazaar is the Game of the Week! This is actually a trio of Sid Sackson games that have been reprinted in the same box. They each have a different way to interact with trading in cubes: pure exchanges, pick-up-and-delivery, and blind auctions. You even get to roll a cube! Cubes!

a man wearing a honda shirt says " would you say i 'm a level 7 susceptive " Alt: Dean Craig Pelton from Community decked out in Honda gear asking "Would you say I'm a level 7 Susceptible?"

They're a Level 7 Susceptible. What a rare opportunity you have.

that neck

God, I thought the cover was a closeup of his hand...
