The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

I hope everyone knows that it's very easy for any social content platform, including Bluesky, to be a misery machine and that if you aren't intentional about it, they will absolutely decrease the positive impact you have on the world while making you less happy.

Hopefully this puts fire to the situation for the industry. Absurd what this administration has done to its own people.

You want to know what kind of bleakness awaits the game industry given a 145% tariff on goods from China? Here’s the director of Hachette Boardgames USA pondering an empty booth at Gen Con 2025. —WEM
At this point, it's cheaper for me to just abandon all our Gen Con releases in China.

Tariffs don’t just mean higher prices—they threaten the very system that made modern board games thrive. Let’s take a deeper look at what that really means.

My Aunt passed away last Friday. She was my best friend my entire life. In her last months she pushed me away, and her Dementia took hold much stronger than we had thought now that we are left sifting through the aftermath. This is just a reminder to hug your loved ones.

Contact your representatives in Congress. Don’t let up until they end this insanity. This isn’t just killing businesses, it’s killing entire industries.
54% on our industry is “stop everything in its tracks” type levels. Layoffs, prices rising, projects cancelled type of chaos.
No one wins with this. To what end is this? If we riot, he implements martial law and never allows for voting again? I mean, who takes a great economy and does this?

These tariffs only hurt our foreign relations and the American people. I fear for my friends and family, as well as local businesses, and I hope that we can all weather this storm.
