That’s a good idea, I’ve already had two of my wife’s bubbly waters today which is two more than I normally have, and I bet it’s because of exactly that.

A couple friends and I are all doing dry January and after partying a bit too much last night I’m kind of looking forward to it. Probably going to move the drinks in the fridge out to the garage though to lower ease of temptation.

Ooo a full Charterstone play through, nice! That had some fun surprises each game, and really set the minimum bar for me with legacy games where I want something new every time we play.

Wooo No Thanks! I don't think I've seen anyone else with this on their played before, and it's one of our favorite games to take camping.

Nice line-up of games in here! I keep meaning to get back to StS; I'm halfway through a run with a friend and I really should just reset it and play with other folks as it's been over a year now haha

Dang, I feel like I need to check out Faraway now...

An app called BG Stats, and I dig it. Very cost cost of entry and then the only ongoing monetization is for stuff like advanced stats and cloud sync, which I sign up to because I like the product and want him to keep developing, not even because I use that stuff.

 

2025 was a real kick in the butt so I just didn't have as much time for games, plus I've been playing more 40k in general which I always waffle on if I should include in here or not.

My group's made some good progress on Frosthaven and we're hoping to actually complete it next year, and another group and I finished Clank 2 (and also finished Clank Legacy 1 finally! But it doesn't show on here because my wife and I had a single game left, but the couple we play with moved so it took over a year to get that last game in).

We also went to Japan this year, which ruled, and Let's Go To Japan has been a blast to play post that trip.

What have you all been playing this year???

I mean sure, if I saw that actually happening I’d be ecstatic. That’s not what I ever see happening though so I keep my expectations in the basement and maybe one time in 30 I’m pleasantly surprised.

And FWIW in person to a person that’s flipped views I’ll be supportive, and I’ll go through the whole “hey maybe this extends to other things?” And lay the groundwork for growing because I’m not going to shit on them directly for doing something positive for once, but privately I’m not holding out hope that they’re actually going to learn and grow from this to realize empathy is the most important thing we can have as humans.

Obviously change their minds, sure, but also somehow figure out an extrapolation that if this one singular instance deserves empathy, maybe, just maaaaaybe they could extend that to other things as well.

I’ll miss your comics, they were a lot of fun! But also totally get it and hope you hit it big!

This game is so freaking fun

Oh…. Yeah I’m in the US and we’re not about anything that would actually help people

 

My seven year old niece and her friends all decided their group hangs are officially now the 'Cherry Mochi Club' and all future hangs are club business, so I made these membership cards and will be giving them to her at Christmas to hand out to her friends. Took a lot longer than I had anticipated to create but learned some cool new things in Tinkercad while creating them.

My wife and I found our 700th cache, on our 7th anniversary, while on vacation in Japan, introducing a friend with us to geocaching and she seems hooked now, and it was a FTF. I don’t think we could have planned it better

 

Happy Saturday all! I’m growing corn for the second year in my little raised bed and I’m trying it from seed this time. It’s mostly gone well and some of them are to the point I should cull them down to one sprout a spot, but I was wondering if it would be feasible to transplant the second highest stalk on each to fill in spots none of them sprouted from. If so, any tips on the process?

 

A buddy’s been hosting a board game birthday for ten years now and I wanted to bring some fun printed stuff. Have trophies for the most and second most wins, plus the green one for him as it’s his favorite color, and one for whomever plays the most games that day. Also printing out assorted little meeple with the ten/X on them.

 

I just stumbled across this app that uses a QR code in the center of the table to align itself, and then puts AR guides up to help lay down your objectives and terrain. Tested it on my kitchen floor because I was too lazy to get the table set up, and it works creepily well! Has all the different terrain layouts in it, big recommend as of now.
