Joke's on you; I already eat spirulina multiple times a week (literally)!

they will ensure they get their money's worth.

You've never met me, who literally uses the headset for nothing other than Moon Rider, haha.

I've never heard that being a reason; I've always heard that they were following the single-minded devotion of John the Baptist and Jesus.

If money were no object, I would build a reusable-glass network and force Walmart, Target, Kohl's, etc. to start a global glass shipping program to take customer-returned glass products (like after you use up all the vinegar, mayonnaise, etc. in your glass jars, etc.) and get them back into the production factories for reuse. All containers would follow standardized sizes (several dozen classifications) to make reuse easy.

It would not only "showcase their vulnerability"; it'd be a vulnerable event itself. If they're smart, they absolutely should not run a parade, haha.

Indeed, I lead a choir and a handbell choir at the church where I work; some handbell ringers became very close friends!

Yes, I've met a bunch of interesting people through board games, and one of them is one of my closest friends now! Facebook and Meetup are the top ways to connect, though I try to also promote the lowly, nonprofit GameNight.host whenever I can.

Anyway, Hard to Get is another, solid cooperative discussion game: it's like Codenames, except everyone is on the same team that's trying to pare the grid down to just the 1 assassin word; the clue giver gives highly restricted, awkward/irrelevant clues about it versus all the rest.

But it's also about quality of life; do you want the last decade to be in increasing pain with challenged mobility or not as bad?

One of us is gonna have to email one of the authors to ask for a copy. I've read that they want the public to read their work and that the paywall is just like a default setting.

I began offering weekly board game gatherings and dinners for the public, and, aside from the rocky start (no one at the first 2 events), every gathering has always gotten a minimum of 3-8 people here in West Allis, WI!

I've been using this website in conjunction with a Facebook group: https://gamenight.host/@wa_bgn

I, too, have Rethink: DNS + Firewall + VPN installed. Prior to this I was using NetGuard.
