Watching the end of democracy and crying in emotional pain. But go Dodgers, anyway.

Unless the government shutdown ends soon, I will be canceling all travel plans.

This is Peanut. She doesn’t care about politics.

If you're referring to Congress coming to its senses, probably not

Sounds on-brand for 2026

The conflicts king. Makes you wonder what they’ve got on him and Ginny. There’s more than one hair on that Coke can.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social seems to be figuring it out

I have no idea what this means but I’m still down for it

It’s definitely hard to wrap one’s head around!

Escape from the Aliens in Outer Space was the first game I ever played at a board game meetup. So, it’s a bit surreal to see Rock Hard: 1977 nipping at its heels on the BGG hotness.

Hanging with the finalists at the Rock Hard: 1977 championship at the World Series of Board Gaming. They were real rock stars, starting the game around 11 PM. Justin (lower left), the winner, even made it to the awards presentation at 8 AM. Congrats to them all.

If you are at the World Series of Board Games, I'll have two copies of the Jackie Fox promo card for Rock Hard: 1977 available after the awards presentation Sun morning for $250 each, cash, Venmo or PayPal. 100% of proceeds go to a 501(c)(3) charity for L.A. fire prevention and relief.

In my house we just call this “Tuesday “

If you’re going to borrow, that’s a great neighbor.

It's on X. Excerpt from a longer tweet.

This was part of a much longer tweet (though the entire tweet was unnecessary as he had already condemned political violence). Engaging with right-leaning voters is part of Newsome's brand and this isn't as bad when you read the whole thing but still... yuk.

You need a little box kitty can't open to serve as a triage tent

Hi, Bluesky! Did I ever mention that I love #boardgames and #cats? Though TBH, it is a bit hard to start up a board game when the cat is using your gaming table as a cat bed and she looks so happy.

Sometimes it’s better not to know

It does indeed. Are you going to write your name in with a Sharpie? Um … never mind. Forget I said that.

Do you actually have the award? I wasn't expecting you to have to bring it home! I'm so sorry. Packing bags after Gen Con is already hard enough.

Where did I leave my glasses?

While the demographic stereotypes (stereotyped demons no less) were deeply problematic, I feel obligated to point out here than Devir is also the company that was 100% behind me putting three genders into my game and making my rockers diverse and inclusive. Artistic license backfired in AofS.

To be fair, has anyone ever seen you together?

DEVIR UPDATE
We want to thank the many hobbyists who took a stand and showed their support for this cause. In 2025, there is no place for those unwilling to recognize and respect the humanity of others.

Devir has released a statement addressing this matter.

I hope so. I stress so bad about getting representation right without making my characters entirely about that. But the treatment of indigenous children in the 50s was shameful and is sadly still relevant.
