Not shockingly, I’ve had issues with them as a company in the past while running a con and the people who ran their Vanguard program. Now there’s this level of fuckery. No more AEG games for me. 😘

Played Bus for the first time in over a decade the other night. I love how mean it is at five players.

Post about whistles… fanfare.

Post about why PAX is problematic… tumbleweeds.

PAX is owned by Reedpop.

Reedpop is a part of RX.

RX is owned by RELX.

RELX also owns LexisNexis.

LexisNexis works directly with ICE and their product relies heavily on AI and is used to deport immigrants.

This your reminder that the only good gaming con is a locally owned and operated one.

A friend of mine printed player trays for Bomb Busters and I was instantly jealous of the cool things I could print for certain board games.

And I don’t even play Bomb Busters that often.

I was saying the same thing. I want to do something to keep my neighbors safe, so I’ll continue doing things like this and be present if there’s problems.

I gave away my 3D printer when I moved. It wasn’t great and I know they’re so much better now. I should look into ‘em again.

Discovering that you can get 100 whistles with lanyards for $25 led to a little project this weekend.

This year, I’ve been reading a ton (going to finish at over 70 books for the year, happy to give recs), getting into board games again (hosting two regular events, attending cons), and also playing choice video games.

My TV consumption is down, as is general social media and internet.

You should be able to mute reposts by someone.

Best new board game I played this weekend was Heroes: Write & Conquer from Hobby World.

Unfortunately, you can’t buy it anywhere… at all. If you picked one up at Essen and don’t want it.. hit me up.

Where’ve I been? I’ve read 66 books this year.. plus Hades 2 released fully. Also loving Absolum and Ball X Pit is a fun diversion.

Anyway, I will be at Lobster Trap later this week to get my board gaming on. Say hi if you’re there!

Rolled credits on Hades 2 a couple
Days ago. Amazing game, 10/10.. still more to do, but..

Absolum co-op with my son is absolutely stealing the show. It’s so much fun once you put a few hours in, learn the mechanisms, and start to get permanent upgrades. And it’s so pretty too.

some guy who won the Nobel for particle physics or something is going to get black bagged by an 11th grader named Bracen Walmart

Adding to this and reading the description of the other game nominated.. why isn’t Faraway also on the list of SdJ nominees?

I would’ve replaced Flip 7 with Castle Combo on that SdJ list… but what do I know?

Opinion | Trump Is About to Steal My Friend’s Christmas — and Yours (Gift Article) A disappointed supporter reflects on the madness in the president’s method.

😬 CEO of the Op: “With Trump I thought, maybe, there might be a method to the madness...I’m concerned now that there is madness to his method...[but] I don’t regret my vote” 🙈

At least the "Tariffs will kill Christmas" message is getting out there.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

I haven’t been active on here lately, but I’ve been playing games, enjoying life, and I’m on my 23rd book I’ve read this year. See ya’ll at Geekway.

Looking forward to Granite Game Summit this weekend. Not sure who I’ll know there, but I’m hoping to make some new friends and see some old friends as well.

Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity.

People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable source of information now. You work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear to all.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.
