Much like when @ruelgaviola.com says that any day at the ballpark is a good day, any time talking to Ruel is a good time.
A delightful conversation, even if you’re not necessarily a baseball fan!
And for Ruel’s sake, I’ll be cheering for the Dodgers this series.

Just in time for the World Series! Made a guest appearance on @intertextuality.bsky.social to talk baseball, baseball board games, and, of course, the reigning and defending MLB champion Los Angeles Dodgers. Now available everywhere! #boardgames #dodgers #podcasts

Not a critic and haven’t touched these games in any capacity (so check out @danthurot.bsky.social’s words on this matter), but it should be pretty obvious how much I’m into @dnlnwmn.bsky.social’s aesthetic and independent production with New Mill. The set of reviews and everything you can visually
Lovely reviews of the latest New Mill offerings! Available for preorder RIGHT NOW from newmillindustries.com

Also got to play some 25th Century gems. Hamster Roll not pictured, but Hamster Roll is always played.

The first IGNM was a highlight of my ~8/9 years in the "hobby" so far.
Bummed that I cannot make it to PAX U this year, especially because of this rocking group of games.
Shout out to all of the amazing designs/designers in here.
Shout out to @dnlnwmn.bsky.social for starting this event.

New Amabel videos are always drop everything and watch events for me—even if it takes me a day to watch..
Anyway, this was unsurprisingly great.

Have continually been taking running more seriously. While I know I’m not going to be turbo competitive anytime soon (or ever), it’s been the outlet I need. My goal was sneaking anywhere under 25–went out way too hard and was able to hold on. Just missed out medaling for age group 😂

Was about to put an earnest pause on some purchasing AND am still planning on making a custom version of this game (which I'm really excited about),
but I couldn't not get this one.
Either to keep or gift, this looks amazing!
Congratulations, @marcelineleiman.bsky.social !
