I've been meaning to track this down and happened upon it at the FLGS! Check it @olloplays.bsky.social

all you people who told us to calm down can go fuck yourselves

Here is @cardboardtime.bsky.social , @weirdgiraffegames.com , @tinychaosmouse.bsky.social , and I discussing why accessibility in gaming is important from OrcaCon! youtu.be/C4o0Lyy6iTs?...

We love this! For each like, we'll post a photo we love from our history at Resonym. :)

Hey! In case you didn't know, Minnesota passed a law that requires employers to disclose starting salary wages. What does that mean for this industry? You can look at MN-based employers (like Asmodee!) to see what salary ranges look like for the kind of work you are interested in.

I no longer want to look my board games in the eye. They need to go somewhere else, somewhere hidden. πŸ‘€

"board game publishers always lie about their play times" some of you motherfuckers take a full minute to move a single meeple

Trans rights are human rights. And while stating this with our community's united voice can help to strengthen those who feel weakened, real change and protection may require each of us to demonstrate our believe through our actions, our votes and our purchases.

My friend told me about the Queer Liberation Library today! If you have a Libby account, you can borrow a ton of excellent LGBTQIAP+ reads in a variety of genres and media (including comics/manga!) for free. No subscription. Highly recommended. Necessary resource. www.queerliberationlibrary.org

I'm thinking of a MAKE 100 project to fund my art installations and art projects for my masters. Do you have websites, books, substacks recommendations so that I can do my research about running a KS? Any info will be greatly appreciated πŸ™‚

I have been relatively offline these days, trying to save up my energy to be present with folks when I can. But the rhetoric we are seeing in the US is absolutely terrifying. Just so we're all on the same page, trans rights are human rights. πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ Tell your reps. Show people what you stand for.

Normally I don't repost episodes, but I know people are looking for pick-me-ups right now, and this was definitely a spark of joy in my day today that I needed. @ourfamplaysgames.bsky.social was a joy to interview and share the table with.

Wanna know what would be sick? If boardgame publishers publicly stated β€œtrans rights are human rights” I want to see which publishers I should avoid working with

A highlight of #PAXUnplugged was the Tabletop Marketing 101 panel in which I got to share a table with super pros sharing marketing experience and tips on bringing your game to market. The response at the event was excellent and the recording is now available for everyone who missed it!

SO EXCITED to announce Button Shy is publishing one of my games!!! ✨ Phantasmic is a 2-3 player bluffing game where you will take turns dueling opponents until one of you reigns victorious (or pushes their luck too far!)

Live recording of @cardboardtime.bsky.social's upcoming podcast episode at @orcacon.bsky.social 2025! And, no, you can't turn Mik's volume down... fortunately and unfortunately! - G

The Finspan announcement dropped today (by the way, it looks GORGEOUS!!). I'm really excited for the whole Finspan team! Being a year removed from the Wyrmspan release, I'm reminded of the rollercoaster of emotions I experienced then #boardgames 🧡
