Mostly board games, with a healthy dose of cinema and a pinch of novels.

If you can believe it, Love & Thunder was better than Brave New World...

A couple of scenes were good, but most of it felt to me like a cheap tv series. Not the worst in the MCU, but definitely not what it promised to be. 5/10. #captainamericabravenewworld

#GameDesign Tip: Run a search for any instance of "it" in your rules or card text. Ask someone else what they think "it" refers to.
i.e. "Tap a card. If it is red, gain an energy card. If it is blue, gain a resource card."
Does the second "it" refer to the energy card or the tapped card?
Can't wait for this. First season was a lot of fun.

I'm still looking for designers for the TN indie game market, an event like the indie game night market, in April. It will be part of Nashville's tabletop day, so there will be plenty of gamers present.
If you can, share it so I can make it happen.

Just watched The Platform 2, on Netflix. If you're in the mood for a sci-fi (ish) movie that brilliantly reflects the wealth distribution and its failures, those two are simply great.
Disclaimer: it gets pretty violent.

How's Bloodlines? I'm curious, but I'm scared that it'll add too much (or not enough!) to the base game.

Making a "duel" version of previously published board games has been trending in the past few years. Some were great, some felt unnecessary. King of Tokyo : Duel suprised me - I've always liked the original, but I've got to admit, Duel is better for short and tense 2-player games. #boardgames

We Have Always Lived in the Castle (1962), by Shirley Jackson. It was her final novel.
Here's a short story inspired by and taking place in the world of the game MicroMacro - Crime City (2020), designed by Johannes Sich and published by Spielwiese.

I finally got around to read The Haunting of Hill House (1959), by Shirley Jackson. As a fan of Flannagan's series, it was long overdue. Vastly different, but still an interesting read. Ominous and delicate, from start to finish.
Insist on your cup of stars.
