Sunday Game day! Today is Armello, based on the video game of the same name. It’s always silly to me when they make a digital board game and then an analog version of it, but much like Slay the Spire (analog) it is very much it’s own thing and is VERY good!

I watched “Run, Woman, Run” for National Canadian Film Day. 10/10 movie. Heartfelt, emotional, well acted and really hit home. Despite having done a presentation on media representation earlier in the day, i am always surprised by how hard Indigenous stories hit me.

I’m six days in to my war against driving and I have never felt freer.

I’m super disconnected from even music that I like but i somehow missed that my favorite rap group re recorded and re-released this album from 2000 and now I’m reliving the experience of just listening to it from start to finish.

MARIPOSAS

After much waiting, i was finally able to play one of my most anticipated board games from @kidstablebg.bsky.social, Lairs. I have a lot of bias towards the publisher and one of the designers but I am always ready to be critical of a game. This game has already far exceeded my expectations.

We chose our home largely in part of cool people who represent our values and fight for our needs and we have been successful largely because of community minded folks like Janis. She continues to give us hope every day.

In the last two weeks I’ve been in Whitehorse. Vancouver, Red Deer and Cold Lake. Now I’m in Calgary. Got me feeling like this MFer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybk0...

It’s a sunday game day. I forgot to post but we played one game of Wispwood, two games of Forest Shuffle and now game of Cozy Stickerville!

So excited to be a small part of something huge!

I traveled to whitehorse, vancouver and red deer over the last 8 days for a mix of personal and professional reasons. It was mostly rewarding, very tiring and kept me away from work that needs doing. But when i got back to the store I found this and it reminded me why i get up and fight every day.

Good lord Westjet is aaaaaaawful. I’m so glad i rarely have to fly.

I don’t want to shock anyone but I’m playing a GAME at the GAME CONVENTION! @terminalcitycon.ca to be exact.

I’m not someone who appreciates art beyond like, games and movies but watching this modern dance performance was an incredibly emotional and moving experience.

Much like DMX (RIP) i don’t dance but when the Red River Jig starts it’s almost impossible to not.

Tearing up watching some beautiful performances in traditional regalia.

At a TRC event at the Kwanlin Dun Cultural Centre. It’s a beautiful space and I was able to participate in ceremony before hand. 🧡🧡🧡

Not-so-humble brag about my husband @ryokley.bsky.social : He's the one who created the video I've been sharing about the Ruin anthology Kickstarter (see below). He's also working on layout for multiple submissions for the upcoming issue of the Sprigs & Kindling TTRPG zine and they are looking SLICK

I had an exchange with a deaf man at the drug store (the hilarity had nothing to do with him being deaf) and it was a stark reminder that I should learn ASL. I THINK i did thank you correctly.

Pulled pork breakfast scramble. I had breakfast for lunch yesterday and had supper for breakfast today. I don’t know what to expect for dinner tonight.

You come to Whitehorse for the skiing, hot springs and scenery. I come to Whitehorse for the mexican. We are not the same.

Arctic winter games. If you’re into that sort of thing.

Not to brag but I’m in Whitehorse eating good.

I'm starting to get the impression that capitalism is a violent, dehumanizing system premised on exploiting the bodies of others, and that anyone who prospers within that system does so by not just turning a blind eye to that exploitation, but finding ways to actively participate in and expand it.

I’ve had wine, so like, figure out how to date me.

Game sunday! First game is Phoenix Point by a publisher who almost never misses for me. Bit dense and the order of the rulebook was super annoying but I LIKE IT.

I haven’t posted about it in a while because I am bad at consistency but I am still going strong with my Year of the Witcher. If you want to follow a long you can at yearofthewitcher.substack.com

I downloaded it for free, skimmed it, immediately understood the incredible value and went back to pay for it. Not saying you SHOULD do the same buuuut.

This fuckin' clown

I, who have never shown any interest in your products or the type of products you sell, declare that I am going to never again buy your products, because I am angry that you said things that conflict factually with my favorite propaganda sources.

Year of the Witcher Day 16! Played (and lost) a digital game of Witcher Adventure Game and now I’m about to do more GWENT.

YEAR OF THE WITCHER DAY 15

year of the witcher day 14: Another round of the Witcher Adventure Game. It’s dated and rough around the edges, and I am objectively bad at it BUT i am enjoying it for what it is; which is very authentic to the Witcher.

Witcher day 12: Geralt vs Triss(me) It did NOT go well.

Year of the Witcher Day 11!

Witcher Day 10!

Witcher Day 9.

Witcher day 8: It’s been a long challenging month already so I’m treating myself to The Witcher: Enhanced Edition. Now I know where Drowners keep their brains!
