Yes, I watched all of the Final Destination movies and then Serenity. No, I'm not doing great. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

Wow, Windows Media Player doesn't pull up metadata from CDs anymore when you're playing or ripping. Just useless.

Burgle Bros 3: Future Flip is the Game of the Week! A TNT mishap has exploded the Burgle Bunch into the future. Yes, that's the setup. Chase down and destroy AI to rid the world of their evil. I like the sound of that!

Oooooooooooooooo

Dice Miner is the Game of the Week! Delve deep into the mountains, digging out treasure and tunnels, all the while dodging cave-ins and dragons. Want to roll 20 dice at a time? This is the game for you!

Just beat the Last Judge, very excited to never hear them chant ever again. My goodness, that took so long.

This lemon was already in rough shape with that giant scar on the back, but this pig is ready for 2026.

So delighted with all of the animation flourishes in Silksong. The little ants carrying away their dead, the way Hornet spins after jumping, the flying bugs after running through a field. And it feels so acrobatic! Each fight is a dance and you can attack from so many angles. Incredible work.

Say that again. I want to make sure I heard you correctly.

Kariba is the Game of the Week! These blocky buddies are crowding around the watering hole, chasing each other away with larger numbers. 64 cards, 8 each of numbers 1-8. Super simple, but timing is a jungle!

A very satisfying display of plushies at DI today.

Designers who have had games republished by different publishers, how did you make that happen? How did your pitch change from your unpublished work?

It's a S'mores Toastie and I got it from a cookbook. So it's actually cool and normal for me to eat.

Used the large format printer at the library to make this amazing board for Northern Pacific by @amabel.bsky.social Got a figure out how to flatten it out, but I'm very excited to play and ask "Cube or train?"

Pairs is the Game of the Week! One pear, two peaches, all the way up to 10 onions, this game is so immediately engaging. Push your luck and don't catch any pairs! But this is significant cuz this is the 400th Game of the Week!

When I accidentally turn on the wrong light in the bathroom in the middle of the night

So it looks like I'm getting the rights for The Grand Carnival and the On the Road expansion back. Anybody want to publish them? Rüdiger Dorn sure likes it!

Watched Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, had a pretty great time, but was baffled by the performance from Praetorian Jack. Just an empty hole in the center of an otherwise energetic and engaging movie.

The Game: Face to Face is the Game of the Week! Only one of you is getting out of here alive, but you need to help your opponent in order to help yourself. What a cool twist on The Game! Now it just needs a clown mannequin posed as my dead father in my driveway and we're set!

George hates rain, but he hates his raincoat even more.

I woke up the dead man. It was very good.

Dohdles is the Game of the Week! How's your sculpting? Trust me, it's good enough for Dohdles. If you're TOO good at rendering reality in clay, you're not gonna win.

Sweater weather, baybeee.

Ordered a game and was very excited about it. While reading the rulebook, I found out AI was used to make the art. All of that excitement turned to disgust so quickly, it was wild. Cancelled my order, can't argue with that gut reaction!

Gazebo is the Game of the Week! Reserve those pergolas in a bloody war across aviaries, butterfly gardens, or botanical paradises. You will relax or die trying.

Behold, my final score in Patchwork. AND I WON BY TWO POINTS.

Picked this up thrifting today. I love that "Baby Elephant Walk" song. Reminds me of elephants.

Second Chance Zoo Vadis No Thanks! Quest for El Dorado Coloretto Strike Skulls of Sedlec Sprawlopolis Camel Up Las Vegas This list can change at any time, but it was fun to think about.

Skulls of Sedlec, Shark, and The Gang last night. Shark is so wild, lots of drama.

"Papa, when will the snow come? I wish to bound through banks of white." Hopefully soon, my boy.

Lands of Amazement is the Game of the Week! Can cards be polyominos? Can Scott Almes erase the memory of Coaster Park from the collective consciousness? Big tasks! Let's find out!

Wonderful game night with friends from high school. Hanging out with old friends is so so fun.

Lands of Amazement is the latest Button Shy game to come into my collection. A very nice looking wallet, and I am a sucker for polyomino or theme park games. Looking forward to playing this more!

Finally made my own chicken broth! Those Costco chickens are such a slammin' deal and this just makes them even more valuable.

We were really worried about George last night. He kept squatting after pooping with nothing coming out. Eventually he just sat down and wouldn't walk anymore. Turns out he got some poop on his butt. Gave him a bath and he's back to normal. What a drama king.

Happy #GodzillaDay!

Jaipur is the Game of the Week! Trade goods and exchange camels in a head-to-head race for gold. Camels are so goofy lookin', but in all the best ways.

George does not have the Halloween spirit.

My favorite costume of all time that came to me as revelation from on high.

No thanks. Utah Jazz's jersey and overall graphic direction is just so bland. Sure, let's throw grey in there! Why not?

Incredible game of Qwixx last night. Thought my red was gonna bring me the W, but boy howdy was I wrong...

I don't make guac that much, but the world's tiniest red onion really cried out for it.

Hey, @lackriver.bsky.social is on here!

The Draugr by Todd Sanders is the Game of the Week! As one of the entries in the short-lived BGG micro game line, The Draugr has you defend Stjørdal from the reanimated dead. This plague can spread across the citizensry, but is your supply of iron and holy water enough to stop the contagion?

Bohemians is very funny (with dark subjects like syphilis and homelessness), if a bit long. Gotta find time to meet with fellow radicals before finding love! My job as a journalist can wait!

Shaky Manor is the Game of the Week! Tremble in fear as you outrun ghosts, spiders, snakes, and giant eyeballs through a dusty mansion in search of treasure. Get your nerves in check to beat your opponents to riches!

Rolled credits on Hades II. Huh...that was an ending.

Feels nice to get back to thrifting and find this delightful game on my first day back. So squishy!

There were a lot of great times on our trip to the UK, but the food and friends were the best.

Perfection. youtu.be/wb49-oV0F78?...
