Weird. This happened the other day and resolved itself on a couple minutes. Might be a server issue. Haven’t figured out what’s going on Try again in five minutes and let me know if it still doesn’t work?
I just moved Gisnep’s upgraded mobile version from beta to the main site. So if you ever stopped playing Gisnep because you found the mobile experience frustrating, now’s a great time to revisit! gisnep.com
Turns out, the first website to ever be hacked was the website for the movie Hackers

I think the topic of my next newsletter is so interesting that I'm tempted to send it early just because I want people to see it. But it's going out on schedule, next week on Tuesday. Sign up to make sure you don't miss it. That's all I'm saying. ironicsans.ghost.io
I was addicted to Pinball Fantasies, played in my dorm with 4 Non Blondes blasting on my 5-CD stereo (their whole ouvre, not just that one song). I know those tables by heart.
20 years!!
Wow. I didn’t realize. Thank you!!

Regarding the Discourse, lemme just say that if you can't draw, yes you can.
Everyone can draw, and folks will almost certainly respond more positively to your stick figures than some generic "A.i." slop.
Also, there are LOADS of resources for free images. Like this! 🧵

I think you’re on to something. Remember that there were originally two similar cable channels? The Comedy Channel and Ha! merged to become Comedy Central. There must be a story there. (And remember when Penn Jillette was the voice of Comedy Central’s “Up next” promos?)
I’ve been meaning to watch that show
Nope. Still just keeping it local. I prefer not to have other versions out there. For now anyway.
Interesting idea. I'll add it to the list!
Do you play #Gisnep on mobile? I'm looking for people who can test a new-and-improved mobile experience before I roll it out. If you're interested, DM me and let me know what mobile device and browser you use.

Flashback to when you could get a cool job in the newspaper classifieds. From the Sunday NYTimes this week in 2000. And that’s how I became Polo Ralph Lauren’s staff photographer for the next 7 years.
Under a minute! My favorite morning brain-waker-upper!

I do Alphaguess, Hang Five, and Gisnep. Sometimes they're super easy and sometimes they take me ages to finish.

The mysterious cartoonist who goes by pseudonym Olivia James has left the comic strip Nancy which she revitalized with sometimes surreal, absurdist and self-aware humor in 2018. Starting today Nancy is by Eisner winner Caroline Cash. Exciting times for Nancy fans! www.gocomics.com/extras/nancy...

I can’t believe tomorrow’s Gisnep is #500!! That’s a lot of puzzles. If you aren’t already playing, a vast archive awaits you! gisnep.com
God this is heartbreaking. I read many of his books. I’d seen him speak. One of my prized possessions was hand-written correspondence I received from Oliver Sacks. I feel so let down.
