Remember: no matter who is in the Oval Office, you can always fight for change at the state and local levels. Just look at New Mexico.

Sometimes when I'm writing flavor text for a boardgame, I look things up to be sure I'm using a word or phrase correctly. Because of that, my search history can get a bit... "weird".

Poll: Finnish publisher Lautapelit.fi has a couple of large games in its catalog (Agemonia & Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy), and with shipments nearly ready for the U.S., it's wondering how a 20% tariff will affect potential buyers. Let them know: boardgamegeek.com/thread/3472668 —WEM

Explain your user name: I have metal splints on all my fingers, & I used to wear a metal waist-to-knee brace so I could walk. I am now an electric wheelchair user, so the leg brace is gone, but the finger splints are still necessary. Since my wheelchair is electric, I am now battery-powered!

Let's play a game: Find the dog.
The picture shows a room with shelves lining the walls. All the shelves are filled with boardgames, plus 1 TV and some video consoles. The top of a gray couch appears in the foreground. A dog's nose and eyes are visible over the edge.

"Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy." Whelp. Currently on day 5 of this $@#%&! migraine, so that fits. I am merely existing at this point.
Picture of 4 different kittens as examples of migraine stages: prodrome (staring into space), aura (bright light shining onto their closed eyes), attack (crying & wet), postdrome/recovery (casts on both front legs).

Today, I learned that baby hippos typically weigh about 50 to 100 pounds at birth. They continue to grow in size until they are about 25 years old.

Still looking to follow more people who make comics, video games or board games, just to stay aware of what’s up. Drop a note here if that’s you, okay?
