I’ve been struggling with this ever since cons went away under Covid. I’m just not having that “spark” for game design that I had before.

It is SOOOO HARD for me to not buy this game on Steam! I play the original on iPad, so I want to play 2 on my iPad. But all my friends have it and I am getting MAD FOMO!

Final game of night 1 of #NoPowerCon was a little Ascension with @pa8ted.bsky.social . We ran an extension chord from the car’s inverter so we could charge our phones and plug in a light.

So @pa8ted.bsky.social and I are going through old prototypes, right? We found this one. We know what prototype it is, but neither of us can figure out how to open this card container! 🤣🤣🤣

Holy SHIT did it feel good to playtest a prototype again! I’m so glad to be back at it. Hoping to have this game in good enough shape to playtest at Gamestorm in March. Who am I gonna see there? Hoping some of the Seattle peeps make it down. #boardgames

Then I ended up playing a couple of solo games of Ascension on my iPad to wind down. Won 1 and lost 1. Pretty rare that I get beat by the game, but it happens.

Matt Jacobs He/Him @pnwbeard.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

Then we finished the night by playing an 8 player game of Goodcritters. This was really fun with a really good group! Thanx for teaching @fanfactories.bsky.social!

Matt Jacobs He/Him @pnwbeard.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

If Trump or Vance or Musk do something that seems completely irrational to you, ask yourself “is this getting them more attention?” If the answer is “yes” then actually it makes perfect sense. And the answer will always be yes.
