Whoops! Should be Pickpocket GAMES, not Gmaes. My bad!

Game of Thieves Market in progress
It took a little social media hiatus, but it’s good to be back in Bluesky. Had a fun game night double feature a few weeks back: Thieves Market and Everdell. Woodland creatures civilization and the dark under that civilization. It was a hoot! #gamenight

Man, I wish Pratchett was still around. Things really went sideways after he passed. Did not know he was a WC fan! Thanks for sharing.
The solar punk discussion reminded me of Pacific Edge by Kim Stanley Robinson. Part of his three Californias trilogy (trilogies are real, sorry duologies). Enjoyed all three of these books but the ideas in Pacific Edge still resonate with me. I think you guys would like KSR. Will check out Monk/Rob!
Look for all Dog Star related titles on this sale! 🐕⭐️😍 Thanks to the Game Crafter for celebrating this intimate holiday!

Bargain bin! TGC printed too many copies of Dog Star Shippers and moved this one to their bargain bin. This is a good price for someone to snap up. Might as well treat yourself to the full-priced expansions while you’re at it! www.thegamecrafter.com/bargains/dog... #boardgames #spacesim #twoplayer
Ted turner, being awesome!
What happened to our billionaires? Watching GPB’s Georgia Legend’s series… Ted Turner tries to be a decent human being and admits when he fails. He wants to be a good person! Billionaires these days are the biggest D bags. Zuck, elon, bezos…Clowns one and all! Be like Ted! #saveourbillionaires
First page of the print and play game Milpas: Farming in Balance.
Very excited to share that a PNP game I designed with my 13 yo has been published in a teacher’s guide made by the Nature Conservancy! Find “Milpas: Farming in Balance” at the bottom of this pdf: www.nature.org/content/dam/... #environment #printandplay #pnp #conservation #greenagriculture
Another reason why this has been described as the perfect film. Watch just last week with my 13 yo. He loved it.
“They avoided one another's faces, for fear of what they might see mirrored there. Each man thought: one of the others is bound to say something soon, some protest, and then I'll murmur agreement, not actually say anything, I'm not stupid as that, but definitely murmur very firmly, so that the others will be in no doubt that I thoroughly disapprove, because at a time like this it behooves all decent men to nearly stand up and be almost heard... No one said anything. The cowards, thought each man.” ― Terry Pratchett, Guards! Guards!
As Pratchett said:
I’m just glad other people watch this stupid sh*t so I don’t have to. Thanks for your sacrifice, Ben. It unreal. If the Farrelly Bros. wrote Vance’s lines people would call it shlocky.
Dan, you the man.
Ding ding! My 16 year old boy was tracking this story last year. He couldn’t believe it. And then things just roll by… one horrible stupid story after another. There’s no way to keep up. What are we supposed to talk about now? Greenland has always been Iceland? Appropriate use pepper spray?

Space Cadet Rewind is going to have to learn Korean for this one. Looks like it shouldn’t be missed!
Heads up for the Wilco reference! I feel like my age demographic is well represented on this episode. Of course it’s only natural considering the Chicago connection. Regardless, this is a fun one!
Best of luck! I’ve enjoyed selling on the Game Crafter for many years now. No regrets!

A van drawn with the Supernote Manta
Put my Christmas money towards the Supernote! Having a lot of fun with it.
Here’s a cool van I drew…
So nice to have the drawing features of a tablet without blue screen light shining in my eyes. After a week, I’m wild about this product! #supernote #eink
Excellent episode! Love that Brian gave a shout out to the @prancingponypod.bsky.social! Big fan! Dan, you didn’t ask the big question… How will the Return of the King trick taker handle the Appendices? Will Brian give us a chapter on Appendix D the Calendars?
