The top of a Wikipedia page for "List of games that Buddha would not play".

"The Buddhist games list is a list of games that Gautama Buddha is reputed to have said that he would not play and that his disciples should likewise not play, because he believed them to be a 'cause for negligence'.[1] This list dates from the 6th or 5th century BC and is the earliest known list of games.[2]

There is some debate about the translation of some of the games mentioned, and the list given here is based on the translation by T. W. Rhys Davids of the Brahmajāla Sutta and is in the same order given in the original.[3] The list is duplicated in a number of other early Buddhist texts, including the Vinaya Pitaka.[2][4]"

Games on boards with 8 or 10 rows. This is thought to refer to ashtapada and dasapada respectively; however, later Sinhala commentaries refer to these boards also being used with games involving dice.[2]
The same games played on imaginary boards. Akasam astapadam was an ashtapada variant played with no board, literally "astapadam played in the sky". A correspondent in the American Chess Bulletin identifies this as likely the earliest literary mention of a blindfold chess variant.[5]
Games of marking diagrams on the floor such that the player can only walk on certain places. This is described in the Vinaya Pitaka as "having drawn a circle with various lines on the ground, there they play avoiding the line to be avoided". Rhys Davids suggests that it may refer to parihāra-patham, a form of hop-scotch.
Games where players either remove pieces from a pile or add pieces to it, with the loser being the one who causes the heap to shake (similar to the modern game pick-up sticks).
Games of throwing dice.
Dipping the hand with the fingers stretched out in lac, or red dye, or flour-water, and striking the wet hand on the ground or on a wall, calling out "What shall it be?" and showing the form required—elephants, horses, etc..
Ball games.
Blowing through a pat-kulal, a toy pipe made of leaves.
Ploughing with a toy plough.
Playing with toy windmills made from palm leaves.
Playing with toy measures made from palm leaves.
Playing with toy carts.
Playing with toy bows.
Guessing at letters traced with the finger in the air or on a friend's back. (letters in the Brahmi script)
Guessing a friend's thoughts.
Imitating deformities.

A drawing of the artist walking around with a silly smile, while a carabiner holding keys, connected to her pants, is making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sound.

Above her is a thought bubble with a robot bearing the caption "Lesbotron 3000", also making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sounds.

if you're transgender you have to live. if you accomplish something else then good. if you accomplish nothing else then good. but you have to live

A colored sketch bust of Karlach Cliffgate from BG3. She’s smiling lopsidedly, seemingly fond of something.

Howdy, all. I am a poor, disabled trans enby artist (dev, concept artist, composer) that is just getting back to transitioning, working hard on my mental health and I need clothing and art materials. Anything is helpful. I need new shorts, shirts, notebooks and art supplies, etc.
