Hey - if that board game kickstarter showcases previewers that are chuds... you don't have to back the project. Everyone's threshold (and awareness of behaviors) varies - but when the first two previewers are some nasty folks... you can just pass.

Check out our new game, Triassic! It’s a Dino fossil hunting game in the style of the Clever roll and writes: kck.st/3xDCLF

Hey, so. I understand that this is anecdotal and not research, but. It is WILD how useless social media has become for promo. It's a fucking disgrace, really.

We’ve returned to the olden days, when word-of-mouth was the only real way to advertise. As an author, if you enjoy a book, please: tell your friends. Your group chat, your sewing circle, your family WhatsApp, your work Slack, the voice channel of your MMORPG guild, anything.

We’re all about being cool, having fun with friends and family! What better way to have fun this summer than by playing Triassic!! Backers will have the files before August so still plenty of time to dodge the heat and play a very fun game! kck.st/3xDCLFZ

Our tech overlords would like to make clear that your fantasies of universal health care and affordable housing are childish while their fantasies of infinite energy to power their AI girlfriends are reasonable expectations and will come true imminently. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

AI is exhausting the power grid. Tech firms are seeking a miracle solution.www.washingtonpost.com Some data centers need as much energy as a small city, turning companies that promised a clean energy future into some of the most insatiable guzzlers of power

Only a few days left to get Captain for a Day out #PeterPan themed board game of negotiation and strategy! Come join the crew and help us sail the skies through Neverland! All the world is made of faith, and trust, and fairy dust kck.st/3X5vNnh

So i finally got a ko-fi up - thinking of transitioning all of my game and puzzle products over there. ALSO: If you're in the US I've got a very small card game available to purchase! First time it's been available online! More stuff should be making its way to the store soon. ko-fi.com/ajstichter

I'm so grateful for libraries. These are the stickers for the Super Summer Challenge of the Salt Lake City Public Library system, and there are stickers for each of the branches. It's so stinking cute.

Is that what they believe? That people are just out there committing felonies?! Weird, pretty sure most people aren’t doing even one felonious thing in a year let alone 3 a day

I'm above average and I don't manage three felonies a day

High Season: Grand (Austria) Hotel: Roll and Write. Anyone played this? It’s got a lot of variability, 8 different hotels and 8 different staff boards. It has that old school vibe of not having enough actions to do everything. But it also has those sort of guidelines of what’s best #boardgames
