Sometimes when I'm writing flavor text for a boardgame, I look things up to be sure I'm using a word or phrase correctly. Because of that, my search history can get a bit... "weird".

We boardgame industry people are hurting. 😞

My heart goes out to the fun folks at Greater Than, who produced wonderful games like Sentinels of the Multiverse and more.

Poll: Finnish publisher Lautapelit.fi has a couple of large games in its catalog (Agemonia & Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy), and with shipments nearly ready for the U.S., it's wondering how a 20% tariff will affect potential buyers.

I have metal splints on all my fingers, & I used to wear a metal waist-to-knee brace so I could walk. I am now an electric wheelchair user, so the leg brace is gone, but the finger splints are still necessary. Since my wheelchair is electric, I am now battery-powered!

I love pandas and when A.I.M. first started I choose PipoAngel bc I liked the Sanrio pig. But then realized that Panda Angel was more me. But that and many iterations were taken. 8 is a lucky Chinese number so I replaced the A in angel and got my name!

Omg. Thanks for asking. 💁🏽♀️ CW - for 2nd Gen kids.
I made it in a flurry, when I first created a public account for gaming. I realized someone had the one I first planned, so I landed on this one & just went with it.
Growing up “Your mom is a FOB!” was a common insult. 🧵

Today, I learned that baby hippos typically weigh about 50 to 100 pounds at birth. They continue to grow in size until they are about 25 years old.
This post has been living rent-free in my head all week.
