Had a good time connecting with my fellow citizens today. Oh, and I triggered a MAGA snowflake that literally screamed “commie!” at me. They really are very dumb and easily manipulated. #nokingsinamerica

Didn’t expect this game project to go in this direction, but I’m already working on expansion ideas. A system that could allow for deck customization wasn’t what I had in mind, but I think it might be heading that way. #boardgameprototype

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Scrolling through games that are crowdfunding and have a few takeaways: 1. Stop with the dark dystopian future. We’re living in a dystopian present. 2. If you devoted a fraction of your time fighting actual tyranny that you spend pretending to, things would be better. 3. We become what we focus on.

"The war against the imagination is the only one the capitalists have actually managed to win." From; Revolutions In Reverse by David Graeber

"There is no better way to ensure people are not
politically active or aware than to have them working,
commuting to work, or preparing for work every
moment of the day. Sacrificing so many of one’s
waking hours to the gods of productivity ensures
no-one has access to outside perspectives that
would enable them to notice that organizing life
this way ultimately decreases productivity.
.
As a result of this neoliberal obsession with stamping
out alternative perspectives, we have been left in the
bizarre situation where its plain to everyone that
capitalism doesn’t work, but it’s almost impossible
for anyone to imagine anything else."

Fun Fact: A 2% tax on the top 5 wealthiest billionaires would generate more revenue than the entire yearly budget of USAID. I think I found the efficiencies DOGE was looking for.

I'm just so sad about everything. Canada, Mexico, they've been by our side and have helped us for so many years. Even JUST RECENTLY—look at how they showed up for the people of Los Angeles and the wildfires. They didn't have to do that but they did. Good neighbours look out for each other.

“It's crucial to have a setup, so that, at any given moment, when you get an idea, you have the place and the tools to make it happen. If you don't have a setup, there are many times when you get the inspiration, the idea, but you have no tools, no place to put it together.” - David Lynch

Truly an amazing night of play testing last night. Well attended, highly engaged. Met some new friends and hung out with some of my oldest. Can honestly say that we’re deep in the final stages of refinement. #boardgameplaytesting #playtestersareawesome #sepulchrethegame

Currently navigating the tricky process of getting really phenomenal feedback and ideas and trying to finalize my game for production this summer. Stoked about play testing this latecomer. #playtesting #boardgamedesign

One of the exterior panels for the box slipcover of my board game Sepulchre. The idea behind them is have artwork that looks like Art Nouveau street posters advertising the game. Possibly art prints or posters as a stretch goal? #artnouveau #boardgamedesign
