Mailing a package has, like, six or seven different steps, each taking various amounts of effort and I want to do none of them.

lately reddit has been spamming my feed with amazing digital circus threads, and given the caliber of discourse that I'm seeing, whatever goes on in the finale i wouldn't be surprised if that happens again.

only so much you can do, especially when dealing with a developed fandom or simply a massive audience. many endings that id argue flow smoothly from the story that precedes them and were still, to various degrees, panned on release: evangelion, sopranos, steven universe, catcher in the rye i think

So, 11 years in, does the dress still look white and gold to anybody else or am I the only one left?

You should check out Arcs, it does a good job at replicating the space flavor and heavy political shenanigans while also having, like, 1/12th of the rules overhead

I won't :(

My most irrationally held belief is that those blind soda taste tests where people can't tell apart coke and pepsi are fake. All of them. And I will keep believing this until I do one of them myself. Which I'd obviously crush. Because I know what coke and pepsi taste like and that they are different

IS THAT THE FUCKINGGGGG LEGEND OF THE BOARD GAMING MEDIUM, CROSS-GENERATION CRITICAL DARLING BELOVED BY THE MASSES ONCE IN A LIFETIME TABLETOP EXPERIENCE, MIRACLE OF CREATION, CHRIS PETERSEN'S 2017'S TWILIGHT IMPERIUM 4TH EDITION?

Haven't played it yet but I heard it's pretty cool. Does it hold up?

If you currently are or have ever been a weird teenager on the computer, you immediately need to go play Perfect Tides & the sequel Station to Station, they are both incredible games

Slay the Spire 2's concurrent Steam players just hit 179,456, the highest ever for any roguelike.

When StS1 first launched back in 2017, it had 193 concurrent players.

That's a 92,982% increase, meaning StS3 is on track to hit 166,861,777 concurrent players by 2035. 💪

My only regret in life is not shaking hands with Tung Tung Tung Sahur

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE YOU WONT BELIEVE WHO I JUST MET @mbtyugioh.bsky.social @joebiden

Doctor @neonrot.bsky.social came down my chimney and delivered some spice, I had to stop my gf from burning her deck of cards after our first game. Mission accomplished

Ok wise guy, explain this one then

Tumblr post by "dark-magician-girl-meets-world" Me: I don't know. I just don't think there's much comedic potential to the idea of a "pizza samurai" PIzza Samurai, entering physical existence due to the sheer willpower which I still spend thinking about him: I will defeat you with my New York Style martial arts Pepperōnin, also real now: Prepare to get sliced

Fighting with all my might not to rebrand as the pepperōnin on every single platform I use, and losing. Badly.

INSANE PULL i thought i was the only one that still remembered the folk punk tribute album to space jam

I think a lot board gamers underestimate the depth of light games and overestimate the depth of heavy games. More moving parts does not necessarily mean a game has more strategy. It often just means there's more noisiness obscuring the impact of your decisions.

Related phenomenon: people getting comically incensed about the four color theorem. Significantly less frequent, absurdly funnier every time I see it.

Ajab is that muslim headscarf i think

iterate", and "consume as much art as possible, not just within your own medium but especially outside of it", but these are both very frustrating things to say, because they are really hard and require a lot of work, while people in the market for art advice are trying to make the process easier

This is probably the case for every art form, you could read two different books on how to write novels and come out of it with three different, non-overlapping lists of guidelines.

In the end the two recurring, universal things that seem to actually work are "create create create iterate iterate
