TBT: that time I ordered batteries on Amazon and they were delivered loose in a big mailing envelope

I did that for a few years. It was awesome and positively debaucherous. Everybody loses touch with standard social norms. Hundreds of interwoven coming-of-age stories playing out in a complex network of sticky, nervous, unbathed teenagers.

Oh goodness yes, I have several people at work that ship their daughters off the last week of June and then pick them up in the middle of August and they’re only allowed to visit once when camp is mostly over

Kind of blown away to learn that there really ARE summer camps that last for eight or nine weeks. I'd assumed that was another thing Hollywood invented, like lavish high school reunions. It's wild to imagine getting out of school, going off to camp for the entire summer, then going back to school.

Coming to Kickstarter in September: Kart! bit.ly/KartOnKS Gather your friends and your kart and get ready to hit the hill! These contraptions are fierce, fragile, and about to take on all the hazards your neighborhood can throw at them. Go fast, lose control, slide to victory!

If you're attending Gen Con in a couple weeks and you're a movie sicko, here are two things you will want to know: 1. There are only 25 IMAX 70mm theaters in the the entire country and Indianapolis has one of them, at Indiana State Museum. 2. Nolan's The Odyssey will playing there during the con.

(Deeply embarrassed to admit that when I first scrolled past this I thought it was Sam Altman…)

This must mean that vibe-coded UIs were common in the human ancestral environment

COWORKER: So what did you do before you started working at Leder Games? ME:

lol how much did Mamoru Hosoda pay for this headline

The United States is turning into a kind of reverse Omelas: everyone is miserable except for a single child, Donald Trump, who inexplicably must be kept happy.

he's not wrong!!!

They JUST started filming!?!? We've been hearing about this movie's production for like five years now.

And so the clock strikes midnight on another Sunday night, and once again I just want to say to all of my followers out there from the bottom of my heart: I wish 120 Minutes was coming on right now.

120 MINUTES was an absolute oasis in pre-internet pop culture. So many bands that you could ONLY find there (TV-wise) became ubiquitous online later (and relatively recently). A pioneer. consequence.net/2026/07/dave...

I sometimes catch myself wishing there were Starbucks that were bigger and more secluded, where I could just work without buying anything, and then I realize those are called “libraries.”

I’m not here to make friends, I’m here to make myself miserable.

Lovecraft is hilarious. All the stories are just someone saying they are shaking in their boots from sheer terror and then describes a really big rock or a foreigner.

Just woke up from rolling a 6. And by "just" I mean 25 minutes ago but this is the first time since then that I've been able to interact with your so-called reality.

We're nearly ready! We'll be live in about 10 minutes!

That's funny because I keep wishing that this library was noisier and had worse coffee

I sometimes catch myself wishing there were Starbucks that were bigger and more secluded, where I could just work without buying anything, and then I realize those are called “libraries.”

Everyone's always like "Now that you're 'Bluesky official' are you ever tempted to troll the fanbase with hints about fake projects?" C'mon, I don't have time for shenanigans like that! I have to put the finishing touches on our officially licensed Final Fantasy/Root crossover game.

Oh my god, did you hear about Trump's latest embarrassing gaffe? I can't believe this, but he just mixed up Steve “Munchkin” Jackson with Steve “Games Workshop” Jackson. #25thAmendmentNOW

Of course people who are against libraries don’t know how to use a comma.

Expansion Pack: The Whoops You Slept 9 Hours And Now It's One A.M. Module

They’re making the Cryptkeeper woke. He’s gonna say “boils, ghouls and slay/phlegms.” It was on the news.

so hard to get invested in mysteries set in the past. "oh no, that guy is dead." yeah and so is everyone else on screen, so what

Let’s play my new roll'n' write game Afternoon Nap! Roll a d6: 1: The nap has rejuvenated you! 2-5: Taking a nap was the worst decision you have ever made 6: You now exist in a liminal space where time has no meaning, the clock says 4:47 but you no longer have context for what that means

me, sitting in a Gloomhaven box: agreed

Somebody get this woman a board game review channel!

Okay but imagine the poster-size stickers in that copy of Cozy Stickerville and how gloriously satisfying it would be to post them ... And now I would kinda love to do that for a convention and have people pass through to help paste up the big stickers

The Spiel des Jahres use to be lighter games….

Experts agree: the best games have four letter names.

I wouldn’t have voted for any of these games. Board games shouldn’t be this large, it’s completely impractical.

For sale, baby brain, never used

try to live your life such that when you die no one makes a post scolding people for speaking ill of the dead

Dying while everyone is waiting for another guy to die is a really good bit.

And so ends another long week posting on bluesky dot com...

I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to make mistakes.

Now who is going to resurface that road?

just use the xerox machine at kinkos

The Kinkos branding was so strong that people still call it that even though there hasn't been a store by that name in 18 years. There are people who can vote who say "Kinko's" even though it's been FedEx Office their entire lives.

they should combine vapes with harmonicas

Some foods are getting really expensive! Drugs, for instance

SCOOP: my inside sources are now confirming that Spider-Man: Brand New Day adapts the classic storyline where the Hulk murders a bunch of rollerskaters for listening to disco music too loud.

Logo doodle I made this morning. Yeah, IDK either. This kind of modular lettering is fun to play around with, but hard to do well. This one looks a bit Tron, or maybe like something a particularly futuristic toothpaste brand might use…
