Board game fiend, Crocheter, thrift queen, boot curator. Teacher. My working conditions are your child’s learning conditions. She/her
Sitting in coffee shop when I see woman I used to work with in my early 20’s. (In mid-40’s now.) She’s in her 70’s now, but we always got a long back then. I’ve wondered abt her, but don’t think she recognizes me now. I remember she hates surprises so hesitant to interrupt her convo w/her friends.

We taught students the program Book Creator. A Black student wanted Black anime characters. We told AI pic generator “black skin”, “brown skin”, “black features”, and continued to get white characters. Finally, I typed in “African features” and the character came back w/a semblance of black skin. 😒

Here is why I think board game publishers should use professional translators and not rely on the community, friends or AI. While those are cheap, chances are they lead to issues that are more costly.

The Importance of Professional Board Game Translations
When you open a board game box, the first thing you see is usually the artwork and the neatly packed components. They are what make you want to play the game.

your country should be massively overprovisioned for food and electricity or you have done it wrong
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Throwing this tip out to teachers - a completely silent fidget. I picked these faux fur fabric patches at the dollar store. My autistic students are loving them. I’ll just toss them in the wash when needed.

@rickriordan.bsky.social Mr. Riordan, you are fantastic writer and my students are enjoying your book. But, and I am sorry about this, you might be disliked by middle school teachers for a while. Smelly Gabe struck hard w/this line. When the “6/7” craze is done, teachers will be good with you again.

We’re listening to Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief in class. Percy says, “We laid our damp clothes by the fire to dry.” The narrator does not articulate the /p/ well enough so all everyone heard (including me) is “damn clothes”.

Where do bad rainbows go?
Well they go to prism.
But it’s a light sentence.
It gives them time to reflect.

I purchased this art at Gen Con 2025. We’d been on the lookout for a good frame. Found one at Goodwill this evening.

Here’s a game I’ve never played - Orléans. The whole of GameHoleCon is just going to be us trying out games not in our personal collection. I hear really good things about this game. I’ve taken something for my headache and hoping to enjoy myself. #boardgames

We played a game of Beer and Bread. I liked everything about this game except the exchange drafting every other turn. It took a lot of strategy away and I just started collecting resources randomly in hopes I could make something. #boardgames

I was mad when Etsy seller sent me a sweatshirt instead of the hoodie I ordered for my Halloween costume. Seller refuses to fix problem. Hubby suggested I crochet a hat with flaps and add the 3 eyes to ea flap. Now my K-Pop Demon Hunter Sussy costume is complete. #Halloween

Decided to play Lorenzo il Magnifico. Hubby told me we played this at the Gen Con just before pandemic and I walked away epically pissed off. Apparently, the guy teaching the game was not great and told everyone rules as they came up. I enjoyed this play through quite a bit. #boardgames
