I was recently gifted a box of small batch dried fruit from Taiwan from Yun Hai in Brooklyn. How good could it possibly be, I thought. It's just fruit.

I was wrong. They're freaking amazing. Especially the Irwin mango and Golden Diamond pineapple. yunhai.shop/collections/yun-h...

Ooh - /r/bookclub is going to be reading S (Ship of Theseus) starting in the new year.

I am going to have to follow this one. I’m interested to see what people think outside of the puzzling communities.

Type Help was a favorite game experience this year - certainly it was the most surprising. It's a low-fi text-based computer interface game that's sort of an environmental narrative and almost a notebook mystery about a haunted house with an absolutely chilling twist.

My dog is very picky. We are never sure if he's actually going to eat at any given meal.

Also we live in LA.

Which means my husband always puts down Miles' food bowl with the statement:

For Your Consideration.

Anyone have a copy of #HuntAKiller 1973 FLUF? I’m missing one of the main game pages (the auction letter) and would appreciate if anyone could send me a copy! www.huntakiller.com/products/hun...
70s Rock Band Murder Mystery Game
Fluf, a rock band from the 1970s, would've been lost to time if not for the inexplicable tragedy that befell the lead singer. Can you solve the murder mystery 25 years later?
