One thing I love is how TX 3rd congressional district is gerrymandered. Not only does it grab more liberal areas with a ton of rural area, but the gerrymandered was so precise it grabbed these 6 houses in particular.

I'm in the middle of buying a house so I checked out the r/RealEstate subreddit because there's some good advice in there. Ran across a young woman asking a question about earnest money. She makes an offhand comment about not knowing how to get a cashiers check and asking her mom about it.

Engaged in a bit of doom scrolling and saw this. For a few minutes I was transported back to Bad Romance. Back in the before-times when joy was still possible. Thank you Gaga.

Wonder how the folks down in Austin are feeling about Titos vodka no longer being imported into many Canadian provinces because of Trump tariffs. Curious how that will start affecting sales. Same for Bacardi, Jim Beam, Bulleit, and Jack Daniels.

Just read that Truth Social post. We're entering the Golden Age, but it will be at the cost of economic pain. The rich don't suffer as much as the middle and lower classes do in recession. They are always living comfortably. This Golden Age is solely for the rich, paid for in pain by everyone else.

Going through the adoption process in MN, I interacted with a lot of people/families affiliated with LSS all throughout the process. They were some of the most helpful and supportive people I met and can't recall a single negative interaction. Of course they are a target of this administration.

This can't be real. Wake me up from this nightmare. No. I'm awake. And feeling like it's the80s-90s again and the ** gay people went through. I lived and fought through that with the support of the generations before me. Time to be part of the older generation that fights with/for today's youth.

Took a Lyft to the mechanic shop to pick up my car. Got in the backseat. Woman driving commented "I've never seen a grown man get in knee first. I've seen kids do it, but never a grown man." And now I'm questioning my entire life....

Current mood.

Family game night.... First time my kid sits down for a board game and it's all about alcohol. And he wins. Solid game from @paverson.bsky.social Distilled #distilled #boardgames

First time play the #Chateauma in Castles of Burgundy. The bot player is tough to beat! #boardgames #TheCastlesofBurgundy

BEEEEEEES INNNNNN SPAAAAAAAACE! #apiary #boardgames

Marvel Rivals. In Gold III (I'm old, don't judge). And three teams in a row decided they would roll with 3 or 4 Strategists!!!! At this level, WT actual F?!

Finally got around to getting some more shelf space and getting my collection at least a little centralized. No more games on the couch, on the table, on the piano.... #boardgames

Playing Marvel Rivals and enjoy playing Hawkeye. In QP, I either get 30 kills or 7. No inbetween.

I didn't log a lot of plays over the summer. And BGA accounts for a lot of the Splendor and Sea Salt & Paper plays. I'll be better about logging in the new year. Hahahaha.

I love a game with a good solo mode! Now if we can just get that Supermoon expansion and the stupid lid!! #PlanetUnknown

A tale of two solo games... One a light palate cleanser after a grind mid weight! Teotihuacan and Fromage!

I really appreciate when recipes give me measurements in grams.

I need to take better pictures of my games. @jackiefox.bsky.social, designer of one of my current favorites saw my post. Flattered, but mortified about the quality of the post. Lol

Lovely when a Healthcare provider tries to scare/shame me when getting STI testing. I'm on prep, person I was with is on prep, but exposed to another STI. "Well, just because you are on Prep doesn't mean you can't get HIV." I mean... What am I to say to that?

Not the best picture, but a great game of Rock Hard 1977!

Feeling a little blah tonight so I'm staying in and setting up a solo game of Raising Robots.

For fun, I went and opened Facebook. Scrolling through my feed, I counted anywhere from 7 to 15 posts in between posts from people or groups I know. You get served so much junk, no wonder no one uses it anymore.

This woman could sing the instruction booklet to my microwave and it would be a smash hit. This version of "If I Only Had a Brain" is amazing. youtu.be/SLbALKurKNs?...

Iā€™m not a mad scientist. Iā€™m just a disappointed scientist.

Four board games to introduce myself with #boardgames #boardgaming
