News used to be better.

After many, many years of playing #boardgames, I realized your average euro comes in two flavors: * Well-crafted mechanics, parsable rules, and a mostly empty box * Unrelated and random mechanics, rules penned by a drunk monkey and translated by a highschool dropout, and a box full of stuff

Where has this been all my life?

End of June! Three months! DAMNIT! #TADC #IHateToWait

Are the Oscars finally over? Can I go back to being ignorant of movies again?

My childhood is now complete.

Pick the worst possible actor to play James Bond.

"The popcorn you are eating has been pissed in. Film at 11." #nocontextforyou

Currently working my way through #fallout 4 for the first time. I have to say, I don't remember Dogmeat being such a moron in FO3. (Walks on the edge of a roof; falls off. "Finds something"; it's a prox mine. Ugh!)

So, I think I've spent more during Steam's winter sale this year than I've spent total in the last few years. (Granted, we're only talking about $25.) #steam #videogames #fallout4

Signal boost. Help some kitties!

Merry Xmas! Time for the annual family tradition of taking a bourbon tour. This year, #oldforester. (P.s. drove here in a Subaru #forester. This amuses me.) #bourbon #louisville #xmas

Why is it in every cat adoption photo I see, the cat always looks like its inner dialogue is, "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe..." (And, congrats to all in the post. They deserve it. These folks just ended up as a prime example here for me to make my point. ;)

Just a friendly reminder, good chiropractors are your friends. Especially after your vertebrae try to play "pretzel". #ow

Well, it's below freezing outside so it's time to defrost the freezer. Just chuck all the contents outside to keep 'em frozen and then unplug the freezer, prop the door open, set up some towels for drips and put some fans to blow room temp air around inside, then wait. #sundaychores #adulting

Film you've seen more than six times. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LotR or Marvel.

As one of the monkeys who helps keep the Internet working, I completely confirm this is real.

This is the most internet thing I've seen all day

While lots are at #paxu right now looking for the new, I just got introduced to Brew Crafters (Dice Hate Me games) from a decade ago. I'm hooked. #boardgames #beer

Raw-HIDE!

Today I learned there is a series of movies named "Hell House LLC" and that they have nothing to do with the classic 70's novel/movie ”Hell House" by Richard Matheson. For a moment I had my hopes up. Sigh.

I know nothing about these cats or the original poster. Just boosting the signal because I feel like it.

Hey, @gmtgames.bsky.social, last weekend, I was at #euroquest and finally got Dominant Species: Marine to the table - TWICE! It was awesome. #boardgames

I hate GFCI outlets... ...when the asshole who installed it put it at the start of a chain of other outlets and light fixture and the GFCI is NO WHERE NEAR the rest of that circuit! Couldn't be bothered to install a new circuit, could you, you son of a bitch! #homewiring #zap

Okay. I haven't been to live music in years and now I'm at the 2nd concert for the week ( #thomasdolby followed by #herecomethemummies). I think there's a problem in the universal scheduler, somewhere. Regardless, rock on!

"sexy 401k catch-up"

I love that these goobers are back. #murderdrones #thelivingtombstone

I'm not a baseball fan at all but at this point, I will fully throw my bandwagon support behind the Blue Jays to win the World Series just so that a Canadian team can win America's Game. Elbows up, mf.

One of my favorites. Great at 2-players. Come, join the Inky One. Let his purple tentacles embrace you. Or not. Just worship the space-octopus, okay?

The final tally from games I packed: Anno 1800 Artistry Cosmoctopus License to Krill And lots more from others. #boardgames

Gaming con this weekend. Here's the games I'm taking. Let's see how many of these I can play. Anno 1800 Artistry Bloody Inn Cat Lady Cat Packs Cosmoctopus Innovation Le Harve License to Krill London (2nd ed.) Manhattan Project: Energy Empire Port royal #boardgames

@gmtgames.bsky.social, finally played "Dominant Species: Marine" for the first time. It was interesting. Unfortunately, I doubt I'll see it at my group much again but I'll be happy to play again if someone is interested. #boardgames

Why is the sex bot account written using speach from call of Cthulhu?

Here we see @eizebasa.baby in their natural habitat.

Yes, your defeat is imminent! Repent! Give in! ...at least pretend I'm doing something here!

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you joy and happiness.

Hastur at 3AM with hash browns and coffee? Sure, why not? #haatur #wafflehouse #yellowsign #fatagn

Are you in Connecticut looking for a cat? Check out this thread. The foster had to move and the cats need homes or they go back to the shelter. Check thread below for details. I can answer a few questions if needed.

Just sittin' here in the dark waitin' for the power to come back on. Just me and two over houses out of the entire neighborhood. Never saw just three houses lose power before. Sigh. #power #poweroutage #itshot #wellshit #thissucks
