Boosting. I won't be at PAX U, but y'all might be.

Michigan threw that game away. Special teams giving up a TD. Red zone trips with no points. Having the ball late and crawling into a shell. The late hit on the defense. That's not winning football.

Sometimes what you need is the grace to handle things not going well around you. Patience when patience runs thin. Calm when calm is far away. To see failure not as failure, but as more room to grow.
A finished game of A Gentle Rain with two blossoms not placed on the board. Not considered a good result.

Being told some of your car repair parts are back ordered until December sure is something.

Something I keep seeing is "why won't you vote for X?" when they have said something against a minority of any kind. Candidates have to earn votes. It's on the candidate to support minorities. Elections are popularity contests. Don't expect support if they won't support others. It's not free.

Headlines today are incorrect. They should say "A Nation Never Learns" 25 years ago, I saw Jews and Muslims scared of being attacked because of who they were. That's not gotten any better. It's arguable that it's gotten worse.

The end of the Michigan - Western Michigan game shouldn't make Michigan look bad. Either the Big Ten or NBC looks real bad depending on your opinion. Michigan looks bad from the rest of the game they played.

Western Michigan got robbed of that game.

I'm not sure which is uglier, Michigan football jerseys or the offense. This is going to be a very long year if the O-line struggles and Underwood continues to be unable to read the defense.

I need to figure out a better way to absorb rule books in board games. I've been missing rules on new games on a regular basis. Not on purpose, but important stuff gets missed. While I can blame rule books, it's also in part my own fault.

@direwolfdigital.com Question on your 10th anniversary KS. The Cube of Holding does not include the Master Thief game updates, is that correct? That is a separate add-on it looks like.

Realized today that I've beaten zero new video games this year. I've come close with one, but put it down after I got real frustrated with a boss. New goal is to finish one new video game this year, have 4 months to do it.

It's wild to see names light up on the ESPN score bug when the person talks during sideline reports or rules commentary. Speedruns and randomizer runs have done this for years. I wonder who from those communities brought the idea to sports.

Curious how folks make their coffee. For me, I do pour overs with the occasional infusion. Beans are ground right before use. Specific tools are in the pic w/ alt text descriptions.

Feel bad for Bioware, Respawn, DICE, and the Sims devs and fans of their games, but EA getting purchased by the Saudis is really bad.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
