If you're here for wargaming and historical gaming, here are some people you can check out. go.bsky.app/KDpxFNc
I was turned on to Tame Impala about a decade ago and I've been listening to their latest release (Deadbeat) over the past couple of months and... it's okay? I think Lonerism, Currents, and Slow Rush are still my faves.

I appreciate GMT's interest in developing solitaire rules even for games that feel like they might not adapt well to solo play. Games are always better with friends, but sometimes you don't have anyone around and you just want to explore a game yourself. @gmtgames.bsky.social @volko.bsky.social

Would anyone care to join me for a turn-based game of A Gest Of Robin Hood over at BGA?

When Ark Nova came out, I was getting into wargaming pretty fanatically. I've still not played it, but it seems highly regarded and appears to have staying power, with it still hanging out on BGG's "hotness". Thoughts on this game?

Bonaparte in Italy, by Jean Baptiste Edouard Detaille and painted in 1908. This is from my favourite of Napoleon's campaigns. Probably has a lot to do with the countryside.

Lost Ruins Of Arnak or Catacombs?

Turn tracks aren't supposed to be this interesting, @zweigefuhle.bsky.social. Baltic Empires, coming from GMT.

Trump is the biggest piece of shit.
Trump posted that the murder of national treasure Rob Reiner and his wife was caused by "the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME."

No words.

A fascinating discussion of why medieval archers in the northwest of Europe didn't adopt recurve bows.
Why didn't medieval LONGBOWMEN switch to RECURVE BOWS?

I gently squeezed the trigger today on Chad Jensen's Combat Commander. #LateToTheParty. The 20th Anniversary Edition seemed like a good excuse to finally add this one to my collection. @gmtgames.bsky.social

Now I'm just waiting for it to arrive in Canada.

Hey can you share whether TI4 might get a reprint soon, @fantasyflightgames.bsky.social?

Sample counters for Cuius Regio. I think these were sneak peeked a while ago but this is the first time I'm seeing them. Very slick. @gmtgames.bsky.social

Just watching the first two episodes of Vince Gilligan's new show #Pluribus and it's very good. A lot of opportunity to make some hilariously dark social commentary here, and I'm really eager to see where this goes.

The map legend for Seljuk: Byzantium Besieged, 1068-1071 coming from @gmtgames.bsky.social. I like that "gardens" are a thing here.

I enjoy Roads & Boats. I am not good at optimizing it.

I'm looking forward to learning more about this Falklands title from NAC Wargames. Operational level game where recon plays a large role.

Proud of those #BlueJays no matter what. They had a hell of a team and put on a great show.

Well, crap.
