One common sentiment I saw a lot from American hockey enjoyers was that watching the game was nice for having a distraction/time away dwelling on current political/world events. If you're an American reading this, just know that it is a massive privilege that those games got to feel that way for you

Same and I really gotta stress, not even trying to be spiteful/retaliatory! Trying to take us out at the knees economically is just going to make it comparatively that much more expensive to do anything in the US, and some people are already way too comfortable being monstrously cruel towards us.

Board game play stats for 2024. Lots of Dune this year! Probably also lots of Dune next year!

happy 2025 gamers

It's the for-real end of the year, so time to count down Adam's top 10 video games of 2024! 10. SUPER MARIO PARTY JAMBOREE The addition of a Tryhard Mode absolutely won me over on this game, less (but not too much less) RNG and public bonus stars, weighted items/shops. The maps rule too!

This game is currently on Big Sale and was definitely my game of the year (and I played & platinumed Astrobot). Can't recommend this enough to anyone remotely interested!

I would appreciate help boosting this change request for Bluesky Moderation on Github: github.com/bluesky-soci... Currently in the @moderation.bsky.app defaults, Intolerance label is set to Warn, while Rude is set to Hide. This means that Intolerance is treated as a lesser offense than being Rude.

Just did a side by side tasting of these two boxes America I have terrible news Kraft mac and cheese is *seriously bad* compared to KD It tastes like the box it arrives in KD ain’t high art or anything but it is leagues better because it doesn’t just taste like stale paper

My last 10 GOTY picks: 2023: Tears of the Kingdom 2022: Elden Ring 2021: Inscryption 2020: Phasmophobia 2019: Death Stranding 2018: Tetris Effect 2017: Resident Evil 7 2016: Final Fantasy XV 2015: Undertale 2014: P.T.

Not in the states but we DID have a big pot of chilli mac & cheese while watching the dog show finals thanksgiving special so it feels sort of like we’re also celebrating in our own way

So what was invite-only bluesky like?

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline.

I swear I’m doing more in Mexico than just playing board games I’m also just lying around at the pool bar daydrinking until they throw me out

One thing I try to remind folks in the board game industry is that hobbyists quickly forget how complex our hobby is. What we call a "light" game is considerably heavy and odd to the vast majority of people in the country.

Trans rights are human rights Women’s reproductive freedom is all of our freedom Immigrants make our nations better Fuck billionaires. All of them. Every last one. You can auction our elections but you’ll never buy our acceptance Fuck you
