So I've recently discovered I enjoy reading animal adventure books so I've been going through Redwall and Podkin and Deptford Mice... I picked up the first Warrior Cats book and I always knew there were a lot of books in the series. BUT I NEVER KNEW THERE WERE -THAT- MANY BOOKS!

I'm all for supporting your local game store. They're the backbone of nerd culture and are usually run by nerds who just wanted a place for their friends to hang, but have to cover rent. But sometimes not giving a business my patronage isn't enough. How do I anti-give them business?

Somehow all my knowledge of overly complicated modded Minecraft processes translate well into the real world. All this talk about supply chains and PAR analytics and I just want to say "I KNOW THIS! I did that shit for fun in a video game!"

Since I'm the one who wrote my department's SOPs, I'm just waiting for the day where someone comes up and says "uhm, are you /sure/ that's how we're suppose to do it?"

Do not cite the deep magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was written.

Let me just say, Cosmic Brownies are delicious. Through the years I have had several different brownies, some far superior then these prepackaged fudge squares. But... it does make little me happy...

Back in my day, "goon" meant something. Something important. It meant integrity, dependability, saying "IT'S DAH BATS!" while stealing precious paintings for dah boss.

Haaaaaave you tried Another Crab's Treasure? I played it because it was bright and colorful and looked like fun, only to realize I was tricked into playing a Souls-like again!

SECOND THIS! Ghost of a Tale is so good! If you like Redwall, stealth games, or wanna run around as a little mouse in a jail filled with big grumpy rats in a medival setting then you should play this game!

Alright, first thing you gotta learn about is the art student lean.

Just discovered that my local mall has a Kids Empire Indoor Playground which has a fantasy castley decor and a doofy blue dragon as its mascot. The kids have it so fucking good. I would have had every single birthday party at this place!

So Discworld, right? I have a friend who was asking about reading order because he got a bulk of the series for free from a coworker. I had to resist the urge to completely flood him with Discworld facts and just gave him this handy chart. The cruel thing is: turns out my friend can't read accents.

One thing you should know about me is that I love me a good fantasy map. But it's easy to turn into a grumpy cynic when you look at some of these maps and realize "...hey wait, that's just the Mediterranean!"

Map from the video game Daggerfall, showcasing a Mediterranean Sea like layout.

Map from the A Song of Ice and Fire book series, showcasing a Mediterranean Sea like layout to the west.

A map of the Old World from the tabletop game Warhammer, showcasing a Mediterranean Sea like layout which is kind of cheating because the whole world map of Warhammer is basically a slightly altered real world with a void moon.

A fantasy map with all the serial numbers filed off, leaving a generic, almost parody Mediterranean Sea like layout.

HALT is a handy acronym they often teach in drug addicts in rehab that reminds us to take a moment and ask ourselves if we are feeling Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired. We're often very susceptible to self-destructive behaviors when these basic needs are unmet and can often lead to relapse.

Just learned that #cottagecore is a thing and like...yeah man...Let me be a little mouse living in a mushroom house sipping tea out of a thimble and nibbling on this giant wheel of cheese I stashed inside my house. I got SO MUCH cheese right now! I might invite Mr. Mole over for tea later idk

The game can seat 3-6 players, 8 if you get the expansion which adds more races and content. However from experience, the game runs best at 6. 8 players just takes waaaaaay too long!

Shown here is my friend's version of the game. The cloth galaxy map helps keep everything in place and the colored plexiglass hexes help with moving units from system to system. He plays this game once every quarter so he's REALLY invested in the third-party accessories.
