A finished three player game of Ark Nova where two of the players have red and black pieces in the same places on the scoring track.

Been awhile since we've played Ark Nova. Ended in a tie where I got the win because I sponsored one more conservation project than the person I tied with. The whole game was a crazy mess where absolutely nothing came easy to any of us haha

What Really Happened in Portland Before Trump Deployed the National Guard In the two months before Trump’s decision, criminal charges were announced against only three people. On nights when physical conflict did erupt, it often came from police firing on, shoving, pepper-s...

Our review of 700+ videos of the Portland protests shows a wide gap between the reality on the ground and the characterizations by Trump, Fox News and DHS, which said its office in the city was under “coordinated assault by violent groups.”

I think I have a #boardgame buying problem.

Just got Ultimate Railroads, Age of Innovation, and LotR-Duel for Middle-Earth.

I still have games and multiple expansions for various games that I haven't got to the table yet.

They need to stop making cool games so I can catch up! 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

I've been back and forth with whether or not to pick this up. How did you feel about the game having so many mechanics?

I sincerely hope that when this regime bullshit is over that the next president takes back every dime that all these dipshits have grifted from our country and uses it to fund the programs that we all need to have back. Health care, education, child care, everything science, etc etc.

Crockett: Marjorie Taylor Greene voted for this point blank period. Her constituents were the ones that were on the receiving end of this.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

📽️ WATCH: We reviewed 700+ videos, hours of footage from ICE protesters and counterprotesters in Portland.

Trump justified the deployment of National Guard troops by calling the city "War ravaged," with an ICE office under siege. That's not what we found.

This is so fucked up.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

(From @deadder.bsky.social )

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Nothing is inevitable. Effort is everything. Ignore the polls and run through the tape.

Forget the polls. Take nothing for granted. And let's work our hearts out these next seven days.

Trump is Steve. (Italian Job reference)

"You're not going to break me," I said. "You might hurt me, or kill me, but you're not going to break me." A quote from Carl in the Dungeon Crawler Carl books series.

This quote gets more relevant every day and is something I am constantly thinking about every time another person is hurt, or another law is ignored, broken, or altered to hurt more people and break this country.

Also if you haven't read the Dungeon Crawler Carl #books, do it. They are so good.

I have Kanban EV and really liked it. Most games we usually play at 2 players and I think I read a lot of Lacerda games play better with more. What's your favorite Lacerda and usual player count?

Speakeasy boardgame box with a white bag in front.

My first ever Kickstarter #boardgame. I've been super excited to get this. Lacerda's Speakeasy with artwork from Ian O'Toole. I also got the wooden money (in the bag). That box is a chonk for sure!

Might be a bit before I have time to play this, but it'll definitely be the next new game I play.

Portland has fallen!

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

Map: Governors Public Health Alliance * Guam is also a member of the alliance Updated October 15, 2025 Map: @luckytran • Created with Datawrapper

15 US states and territories have formed a new Public Health Alliance, which will counter the absence of federal leadership by tracking outbreaks, issuing guidance, buying vaccines and more.

Members of the new alliance include CA, CO, CT, DE, GU, HI, IL, MD, MA, NJ, NY, NC, OR, RI, WA.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Things are happening at Portland's ICE facility tonight.

GripEQ MB-PX1 bag sitting on my floor, and unzipped showing multiple discs on the bottom, and the putter pouch on top. The bag is black with purple accents. It has two Velcro pouches that I put on. One of the middle finger. The others says "goddammit donut".

New #discgolf bag! The new GripEQ MB-PX1.

Just upgraded from the GripEQ CX-1 which I really liked, but I love this new bag. Lots of room, amazing side pockets, good quality so far.

And I love the black/purple (purple is my favorite color).

Managed to pick up a few items during the Autumn #Steam Sale!

- Rimworld: Biotech
- Rimworld: Ideology
- Two Point: Museum
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps

Side note, I'm terrible at Rimworld ☹️ but I still try haha.

Curious to play Ori. I know very little about it.
