If you're interested in a Tidy Up game that uses a previous game by the dev's creations and lore, I have two recs. WandAndOrder by the dev who made an alchemyst escape room Shelves and Sorcery by the dev who made Teddy's Haven.

Picking apples is also cool, but apples will not warn you of carbon monoxide. Repeat - apples are not a substitute for working carbon monoxide alarms.

A carbon monoxide alarm growing on an apple tree. The text reads: Get a fresh one! Carbon monoxide alarms have expiration dates. Check the date on your carbon monoxide alarm.

In fare Tumblr we lay our scene, two Green Men named Hal meet upon the timeline. #CriticalRole #GreenLantern Sometimes the comic book show mentions something that could take place in Fantastical Europe.

@daviddigioia.bsky.social random question about the robot. Is there some sort of metadata in a steam url that makes it go "A HA!"? Is it just the word Manor or the word Lords? Not a complaint, just an appreciation.

Your beloved has brought you a plate of eels. This is good news! Right? RIGHT? Well...in premodern England eel was a common enough meal that it sometimes got used to disguise poison. What's that, you ask? Is it it time for a thread about murder-by-eels? Yes. Yes it is. 1/5 🗃️🧪

Meme. Painting of six people sitting at a table laden down with food, looking startled as a skeleton taps one of them on the shoulder. The skeleton is standing behind the person on the far right, tapping with its left bony hand & holding a class in her other. The tapee has his hand over his chest & a look of shock on his face: the sort of expression you would get if you walked in on your great aunt Sue in the middle of a menage a trois with some other folks from the assisted living facility.

The others characters at the table are all either leaning away from the doomed soul, or actually falling backwards in fear. Curiously, the one 3rd from the left, hidden in the shadows, looks like an angry Abraham Lincoln. But what would he be doing here? He doesn't look like part of the company; perhaps he's working with the skeleton to settle a score (one of 4, likely). The better angels of our nature, overcome by the skeleton of his revenge.

Meme text reads:
"This meal is
deelightfully deadly"

I saw @ifycomedy.com in Raleigh last week, where he hilariously divulged seeking an autism diagnosis after delivering an hour-long monologue about the Fast and Furious franchise to a friend. This is inspired by that story and a later bit about how all special interests are really trains. 🚂

Illustration of characters from the Fast & Furious franchise as trains from Thomas the Tank Engine: Vin Diesel as Diesel, Tyrese Gibson as Gordon, and The Rock as Henry. Ify Nwadiwe looms over the trains. The left lens of his glasses is blue, while the right lens is green. “It’s all trains” written below the artwork.
