There are big(ish) board game media names out there who don't agree with the 'No AI' stance for this. The paper-thin excuses for these apologists are crazy. "It's going to take over". "You can't avoid it". "You have to accept you'll cover AI generated games"...

No. This is utter bollocks.

Today is Giving Tuesday. We have chosen to make our contribution to Lifeline Animal Project here in Atlanta, which does have a matching program for donations today.

It is our animal charity of choice where a portion of the proceeds from our version of Cat and Woof Days benefit them here in the US.

Real talk from someone who's waffled a lot of things - there's some TikTok trickery here. You can see the video cut from the full tater to when it closes fully and from butter pat to melt. The potato is already smooshed/spread in the machine. If you want to make this work close to what she shows...
She changed my life.

International #adoptees, like me, who were brought to this country had zero choice in their citizenship status. Some of us, whose adoptive parents didn’t do the paperwork, have been deported already. And citizens like me are at risk due to this racist regime. 🥚

There is hope for the future
There was an article in The Guardian a few weeks back about how Gen Z find bookshops preferable to online shopping, and a key factor was that an algorithm will offer you 6000 books identical to the one you just finished whereas a bookseller will offer you three that are different but meet the vibe.

I seriously love the Paper Apps games. I've played them all. Galaxy was my companion on my PAX Unplugged flight a week ago. Portable and easy to play on the go (I just use a dice app on my phone) each book is unique (some schmancy algorithm he made). They're quite clever and fun.

Welp, bless them. It’s definitely a card stock and/or factory difference.

Cards have subtle color differences… but the card finish can definitely be felt. The bundle card (top) has a rougher feel than the booster sourced card. And I THINK (it’s subtle) it feels stiffer to a bend test too.

Because I’m a dork I find stuff like this interesting…

Tokens and land cards from the new Avatar Magic the Gathering set… some from a “bundle” and the others from a booster box.

I wonder if the difference is… factory? Cardstock (they feel the same)?

I’m not sure what my kitchen helper is trying to tell me… it seems to be related to the turkey that just came out of the oven but I can’t be sure.

Your annual reminder...
This is your PSA reminder to waffle your leftover dressing/stuffing.

Top with cranberry sauce or gravy. Or go bonkers and make it the base for a leftover savory sundae with taters, protein, veg, etc.

#PAXUnplugged is my favorite US board game convention. It’s been a rough year for the industry and it’s bolstering to see the passion of the makers and the players here.
