Hello new Bluesky camper friends. Love your pics and wanted to reply by sharing a pic of Silverton, Colorado, USA. Camped near here a couple of times, beautiful rocky mountain scenery! I suppose I can guess why these towns have the same name! ⚒️

Fully agree! Looks like you all have a great time in Australia. I've only had the pleasure of going to Melbourne, hope to do some natural sightseeing in your country someday as well. PS we just got our first dog ever, an Aussie cattle dog mutt, and we're excited to take him camping too 😍

Does anyone else have a mental list of their favorite jokers in 'Balatro'? There's a lot of baddies but one of my faves is the Throwback Joker. Adds .25x mult with each blind skipped. Plus looks like he's wearing my old knockoff Jams and bootleg Oakleys.

I did a week on platformers in my "Game Genre Workshop" seminar last spring. Students worked with me to select the games and readings. I love these games but especially recommend the McDonald book 'Run and Jump'!

In Alaska @ Alpine Creek Lodge on the Denali Highway, closest neighbor 60 miles of dirt road in either direction. Gaming lounge with Xbox Game Pass, six thrones and like eight controllers. Running on Starlink internet. I've played video games in lots of remote places, this one was off the map!

Hello! I published a game studies book with MIT in 2016, it would be cool to be added to this list.
