And then the randomization deck for the hook damage... and maybe a card game spin off. Don't forget the digital version! So much to do and so little time. 😉

Now spend 4 hours coloring and laminating. Don't forget the rule book and at least 3 examples of play. And suggested tasks, oh and maybe an expansion and co-op play rules too...

Board game idea, chaos combat

One big political divide is between people who believe germs cause disease and people who believe Those People cause disease. It was pretty evident right away during the pandemic

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

The message of the Right reacting to Virginia is the same as the message of "2020 was rigged": no victory by anyone but us is ever legitimate. We are the only ones allowed to win.

These people are cartoon villains entitled to no respect and no trust. Rabid dogs.

"Whaaaaaa whaaaaaa whaaaaa! They did what *we* did. Only better. NOT FAIR!!!"

How to play The Bonsai Diary, a draw-and-journal game YouTube video by StickyDoodler

I strongly believe there's no "wrong" way to play a journaling game, so I resisted making a how-to video for The Bonsai Diary. But a trusted friend and experienced designer shared that he could have used some tips in the first few pages. That changed my mind:

You have just lost the game.

40 Years ago today, Geraldo Rivera opened the vault of Al Capone on live TV. Who remembers all the build up to this?

Opinion | Measles Took My Daughter. This Is What I Want Everyone to Know.

Measles is NOT "just like chickenpox". It can kill years later. This woman was so brave for coming forward with her story.

“The MAGA crowd is made of dumb people — like, SUPER dumb people. And they fall for it.”

For my @wired.com feature debut, I talked to Sam, a guy who made thousands of dollars on Instagram by scamming MAGA men with Emily Hart, an AI generated, Trump-loving influencer. www.wired.com/story/ai-gen...

For the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to restore and preserve the freedom our forefathers fought and died for, the War Department will DISCARD AND REJECT the woke prohibition on shitting in our drinking water. AMERICANS SHIT WHERE WE WILL.

So when it comes to beards and hairstyles, discipline requires strict conformity. When it comes to contracting and spreading a preventable illness that directly affects unit readiness, follow your bliss, man.

President urges Iran to start peace negotiations by releasing non-existent, AI-generated women some rando posted about on X

ELIZABETH WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?

KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve

WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question

WARSH: I believe this body certified the election

WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking

Finished a writing assignment for my class! Taking a drawing break (meaning drawing to get a break from writing) for a bit. The two big things I have to do today are catch up on my writing class and do some cleaning in the basement. But I’m letting myself do it slow and easy not all stressy and hard

also I wish people understood that if I had time to work on a project for free I'd do MY stuff?! like I have a million projects myself dude

MUSICIAN: "Here, listen to this song I wrote."
"Wow, you're really good!"

ARTIST: "Look at this piece I just finished."
"Whoa, that's incredible!"

WRITER: "If you're not doing anything for the next two weeks you could read the first rough draft of this thing I've been working on."
"..."

Right: [reviles academia for generations, celebrates deportations for writing op-eds and protesting, dismantles departments it doesn’t like, enacts de jure speech codes]

Left: [is sometimes annoying and unserious]

Some Academics:

The real failure to look in the mirror is academics falling back on comfortable “we’re partly responsible because we enforced left wing orthodoxy“ thinking rather than the less comfortable truth that Trump/MAGA are bad faith actors who will only be satisfied with resegregated MAGA academies

There are unlimited genuine problems with higher education that all should be fixed, many of which Zimmerman mentions in article. But the main reason MAGA hate higher education is because of the good things it succeeds at doing, like promoting critical thinking and making citizens of all races smart

It's nice to be appreciated
