TOP 2 REASONS THE OLD KINGS CROWN SUCKS (not clickbait) 1. I suffered a generational loss 2. My mom says it’s too late and we have to wait until tomorrow til we can play again and I want to play again now

NOT @hexstardragon.bsky.social ACTUALLY SENDING ME A LITE BRITE AFTER THIS 🥹😭

IT’S BEEN 16 YEARS IM SO EXCITED 😭😭😭 (The GameStop boys didn’t know what Katamari was and it made me wanna die)

Dyslexia brings great joy and great pain, but mostly pain. Today I misread an invitation as providing “Lite Brites” and lost my fucking mind when I realized it in fact said “light bites” and there will not be my favorite childhood toy at this function

we’re talking about one of my favorite types of games today 🗣️🗣️🗣️ TOP 10 TRICK TAKERS!!! LIVE NOW!!!! 🔴 twitch.tv/rahdorunsthrough

LETS FUCKING GOOOO 🦅🦅🦅🦅

My wife (@peppermintfox.bsky.social ) and I discussing the trash luck I have with Flip7. Also pictured is Chris Barrows of Tabletop Express, clearly not understanding that you HAVE to Flip7 to win, it's in the name of the game.

New hobby hard launch

Some hopecore if anyone needs it: I just learned that in my new city, people (especially in tall buildings) flash their lights for one minute at 8:30 to say goodnight to the local children’s hospital patients. Every single night. They’re called the good night lights 🥹

nooooo @panda8ngel.bsky.social is telling everyone about my super power!!!! (being easy to spot in a crowd)

Same thing, different font. Anonymously making fun of your wife on the internet for the up-votes of strangers is very weird actually!

You won't be fired by an AI who can do your job. You'll be fired by an idiot who thinks an AI can do your job.

I’m talking about my favorite hidden gem board games from 2024!! Featuring my Remi Wolf tee and peace sign remediation efforts 🔴 LIVE: twitch.tv/RahdoRunsThrough

Being recognized as a Wonder Woman finalist last night was incredibly surreal. I’m so proud of how far I’ve come in the board game industry, and so grateful to have such wonderful people supporting me 💖

A message from the Young Horses team

I had the honor of being a guest on Danielle's Proud to Gayme podcast recently! Take a listen to hear my very anticlimactic coming out story where I told people I was bi and everyone around me said "i know" lol.

Sex work is 1000% more honorable and socially beneficial than working as an ICE agent.

Ray has great things to say about Tabriz as a "classic cozy euro". It slots in at #6 on their Best Games of 2025 (So Far). Thanks @raybird.bsky.social, @cbarrows.bsky.social, & @ruelgaviola.com for the great discussion about Tabriz! #BoardGames #TabrizGame #Tabriz @craftygames.bsky.social

heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy can we stop with using "your wife" as short had for "non-gamer" in reviews?? like "so easy even your wife can play it!"

The R&R show is back! Come join us for chat about our favorite board games of 2025 (so far) Twitch.tv/RahdoRunsThrough

an app that just tells you if the grocery store is sold out of rotisserie chickens yet

As a lifelong Final Fantasy fan, I called the plot twist at the end of Expedition 33’s first disc fucking IMMEDIATELY. I’ve never been more proud of a story call in my life 😭

constant reminders that we live in a world where people have been so alienated from their emotions that to feel them and be human feels like violation. what wonders we can behold in this bold and glorious dystopia.

After YEARS of watching Swell Entertainment, of course she goes to Gen Con the one time I don't go 😭 Haven't watched yet but I can't wait to hear the convention queen's take on the show www.youtube.com/watch?v=tk2X...

I stand by these. Impeccable taste from day one, I fear. (expect for maybe Doom & Destiny, I got that because the boy I had a crush on recommended it and you can judge me for that only if you haven't done that too 🫵)

Thanks to Kenny and Tom for having me on the most recent episode of @shelfstablecast.bsky.social! Go listen if you wanna learn about the anti-fapping history of corn flakes, listen to me rant about wizardcards.com, and hear our thoughts on board gaming nostalgia!

As a long time em dash lover, em dashes becoming a red flag for AI use is so devastating lol

Hey it's after 10 so time for another roundup of what I got TODAY at the indie TTRPG booths at Gen Con! Starting with two designs from @brightbard.bsky.social First being Terminus, which is one of those emotional experiences that the indie scene has gotten so good at.

How do I hold this beer glass ⬇️

Update. I played. It’s fucking PHENOMENAL.

LET’S FUCKING GO

This girl right here?? 👇 MY BESTIE 😤 And ALSO a very talented mini painter! If you're a board gamer looking to make your games less ugly, go take one of Jamie's classes at #GenCon!

Literally this. Community managers aren’t your janitors. You pay us to understand and advocate for the communities who love your games. Listen to us.

Companies should listen to their community managers more when making business decisions. Sadly they rarely sit at the table until it is too late.

Update. Very excited to play this weekend!

Anyways, this is my first time not going to Gen Con in 7 years and the nostalgia is hitting me like a truck 🥲

My favorite use of free will yet

Board game industry professionals from Asmodee, Brotherwise Games, The Op among nominees in this year’s Wonder Women Awards: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20... Huge congrats to @raybird.bsky.social @meanpomelo.bsky.social @9thlevelgames.bsky.social @thedarkimp.bsky.social + all the other nominees!

Calling your app the "Duolingo of ___" is such lazy marketing. I swear to god it's become such a common comparison that it just means nothing now.

People need to stop selling their games to Tabletop Tycoon. Dan Yarrington is an asshole who's screwed over talented designers in the name of profit. It's a shame thats where Gamelyn is ending up. Tiny Epic is joining Everdell on the list of great games I won't be supporting anymore.

ah yes, the Final Fantasy IX announcement we were all hoping for today. (I will be buying these) essential-japan.com/news/orders-...

1) i'm really glad new yorkers are gonna have a socialist mayor who also seems like a great guy who's gonna improve the city 2) every time something like this happens it's a blueprint for how more of it could keep happening 3) fuck the fucking democrats holy fucking shit fucking fuck all of youuuu

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November. Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social
