Who thought it was a good idea to make Facebook's AI into an uncircumcised dick 😭 slop, meet sm*gma
A screenshot from Facebook showing a cartoony, beige, hooded character that could not look more like an uncircumcised penis if it tried. Beneath it is text saying "Meet Muse, your new personal AI agent"

My partner @dasmrh.bsky.social and I are doing 10 dates for our 10 year anniversary. We got to try some amazing jojos (fries) tonight
Thick fries with gravy and sour cream and peppers and bacon and it’s all vegan!

I genuinely think it's such a nice touch that the background turns dark red for packs that have fancy cards. It's small but so satisfying.

The I Spy books were my absolute favorite things to read in the school library, this behind the scenes look was so cool. I did not realize they were all created and photographed by one guy!! youtu.be/sz8luEznxbM?...

As a first timer at #GenCon, yesterday was a LOT. I was prepared to be overwhelmed but not prepared enough. Goal for day 2 is to find seating and *something* non-ticketed to play

I made an account for more board game content & updates on my games! I'll def still talk games here (bc I am obsessed ❤️) but the Resonant account will be a little more...nuts and bolts game stuff.

Anyone have any suggestions for how to engage with big discord servers in a non-overwhelming way? It seems like if I turn notifications on I get inundated, but if I leave them off I'm totally disconnected from the community. Specifically referring to board game servers but will take any advice.

This glib statement is all the more risible when you recall how many law enforcement officers used their vehicles as weapons against protesters in 2020... and how many Republican-dominated states *sought to legalize killing protesters with vehicles* as a reaction to the demonstrations

A seemingly-straight couple just walked past me on the sidewalk and I'm a little flabbergasted. I even leave my gay friends in the dust, these people must be professional racewalkers

It's one giant trove of smoking guns, and yet there's STILL a part of me that fears we might not see real consequences for these low-lifes. Seriously hope that part of me is wrong, but the last 10 years have atomized my belief in justice for the wrongs of powerful people.

The Cracker Barrel logo bullshit is manufactured outrage but I DO think there's an interesting point to be made here about how marketing genuinely does create culture, for better or for (usually) worse.

On the plane to defcon and there’s a guy on the plane in front of me that I can tell is some sort of tech bro. He is doing some training and on every question, he is changing tabs and asking Supergrok — the $300/mo subscription — for help and STILL GETS THE QUESTIONS WRONG

I think if you’re new to speaking out for the people of Gaza & Palestine, your first job is to speak out for them loudly & clearly — and your next job is to clean up your share of mess from your years of silence or defensiveness.

Do any board game folks know of worker placement games that include private + secret worker spots? Can't think of any offhand and a quick search isn't yielding much.

My first Origins was a smashing success, and felt like the perfect point to launch the design newsletter I've been meaning to start writing for a bit now!

I'm seeing so much defeatism, infighting, and dogmatic purity tests among folks on the left lately. And it all seems so counter to coalition-building, which basically comes down to looking your neighbor in the eyes and, despite your differences and imperfections, saying "I'm with you"

This was such a thought provoking essay about the things we consider to be art. I'm glad to be living (and designing games) during a gaming Renaissance.

This article is excellent in numerous ways (shines a light on bone-chilling restriction of speech at Meta; uses "gobbledygook") but I'm most grateful that it introduced me to the concept of "Network States" - truly Android Netrunner levels of cyberpunk dystopia.
