We make board games, we sell board games, we play board games, we talk about board games, etc. This is Troy specifically but Ethan reads these too sometimes.

I wonder how many supplies you could fit on a purpose built drone to make trips to Palestine from uncontested waters.

For folks who say, "We need to welcome the MAGAs into the fold in order to defeat Trump in the next election." I counter with..."I will never stop punching Nazis. If we have to accept Nazis into our ranks in order to win, then they have already won."

They are going after Antifa? Literally trying to silence people who are against fascism? Didn't I tell you the hypocrisy is baked in?

Any day now, I expect to Trump to announce that in place of the late night shows, he will host "The Apprentice: White House Edition" in which he will fire his appointments one by one until only one remains. That person will become the next president. J.D. Vance is not allowed to participate.

We have moved on to phase 3 of the "Fascism for Dummies" playbook. Silencing opposing voices. Next stop...political prisons and concentration camps! When are Americans going to stand up and throw the bums out?

Do they know that when they blame the violence on antifa, they are acknowledging that the victims were fascists? That's kind of like being a Christian nationalist then realizing that Christians are supposed to love their neighbors and accept foreigners as one of their own. Hypocrisy is baked in.

So I need to ask the finance bros and money mavens...how hard would it be to setup a shared "health savings account." Like have 100s of thousands of people paying into it some reasonable amount, then covering medical bills. Like health insurance, but non-profit?

I just want to remind folks that we punch fascists. It's like a defining feature of American democracy. We see fascists and knock them down off their high horse. If you see someone defending fascists, they are definitely NOT American and shouldn't be trusted.

Note for today: If you have a copy of Pins & Beetles, you are the owner of something very rare. We will not be going forward with mass production, so there are 6 copies out there with gold foil logos on the cards and 6 copies with standard printing. Most likely these will be the only 12 copies.

Do we think it would be possible to crowd fund mRNA research in the short term, then sell the results (with a limited profit rider) to big pharma and make all of the science funders a little bit of cash?

One of my students asked me today if people in LA were rioting. I told them that they are peacefully protesting unless provoked to riot. The natural response to fascist domination is that the common people either get subjugated or go into open revolt.

These trans kids are out there putting tariffs on everything so the economy fails. Drag queens are taking away your rights and firing you from your jobs. Don't forget about all those leftist democrats who are trying to take away your social security and cut benefits for veterans.

DOGE agents? How can a department which doesn't exist yet, have any agents? Doesn't congress need to formalize their status before they start rummaging around in sensitive and classified data?

In case you were wondering why insurrectionists used to be hanged... It's so they don't get pardoned by a criminal president to be used later as his secret police.

So...you could go on Facebook and write that Elon Musk gave a statement claiming that his arm motion was indeed a nahZ salute. Facebook will not fact check it and it will probably get picked up by news if enough people think it's true. It's time to use the propaganda machine against itself.

<The following rant is unrelated to board games. It's about teaching English in Korea. If that is not interesting to folks who follow me, I apologize...I'll be back to regular programming after this.> So Korea has created a strange problem for private tutors.

Crisis averted. Korea is still fine. We had a little dust up overnight, but everything is back to normal this morning. I went and got some celebratory donut holes and wasn't arrested by secret police or anything.

Question for the hive brain. Do you think people will pay for 3D renders of their characters? I think I'm getting decent at doing renders and I'm pretty good at altering existing items to make characters unique. (I may have gone down a 3D render rabbit hole). Anyway...here's Magick.

I know a little about almost everything. It's a weird function of my curiosity. Ask me for advice, solution or recommendations on almost anything. I'll do my best to answer. Results may vary and I may start studying your requests and go down a rabbit hole.

Proposal. Instead of "skeet" like sky-tweet, we should use "kite." A kite is something you put in the sky and it is only held aloft for folks to see it as long as it has enough wind to carry it. Kites which are poorly built don't stay aloft long but a person running with a kite can keep it up.

I want folks to be aware that I'm trying to curate my follows so folks who follow me aren't exposed to hurtful garbage people. So if you don't get a follow back, just know I will get around to you if we interact a few times and you don't seem like a bad actor or Russian bot.

I was thinking, "What if I just take all the weird stuff people spout online and make it into t-shirts." Let me tell you, that business proposal has already been made many, many, times... On another note...I'm probably going to buy a Jewish Space Lasers shirt. I just have to vet the makers.

If you follow me and you're a good person, please drop me a note here so I can follow you back. I'm a game designer, English teacher in Korea and part time hard leftist. I sometimes say and do funny things or funny adjacent things. Warning: (My posts may contain puns.)

So the Onion will own InfoWeird. I hope that includes all the IW licenses as well as Alex Jones' name and likeness rights. That would be beautiful to see the Onion selling reverse brainwashing merch with IW licenses while shilling them with AJ's name and likeness.

I heard all the cool people are here now. I'm still posting on Twitser because I don't believe in giving Nazis a free place to conspire. I want to divide and disrupt their plans. Years of trolling experience shouldn't go to waste.

If you haven't checked out Pins & Beetles, now is your chance to see what we've been talking about. Beautiful art by Klaudia Jankowska and clever layouts by Jovial Graphics. Also...(humble brag) fun gameplay by Kyu Choi and I. subscribepage.io/kw9BgQ Join our spam-free mailing list.

This seems like a good opportunity for women in the feed here. Be forewarned that corporations offering to mentor and reward women may have ulterior motives. Just make sure that those motives align with your own personal goals and don't compromise your worth.
