His daycare tells me he was extremely proud of himself yesterday for two enormous HOWLS from atop the play structures.

(He has never howled at home.)

Almost everyone blew up. Delightful.

Unpleasantly close-up photograph of an aging white man. His sickly baldness is worsened by two even more disagreeable features: the “soul patch” chin adornment combined with the “fu manchu” mustache.

Played “Rise & Fall” (2024), a strategy game with no random elements other than initial play area construction. First-time play was pretty fun, easy to learn. Would play again.
