I recently put together my top 50 games, so I figured I would share them with Bluesky.

My process was to dump all the game I've played at least twice since 2020 into a list, remove the ones that were obviously not top 100, then put those 150 or so into pubmeeple, then tweak the list.
Holy shit they reversed a first down call.

The issue is that the weather isn’t conducive to dress wearing, and when I go months without wearing one I end up with the urge to buy them instead.
Someone tell me not to retail therapy clothes that I don't need. Thanks.

Long Beach Island isn't even that nice.
The Seattle Kraken announce that Jaden Schwartz is expected to miss approximately six weeks with an LBI.

Does anyone else find that the iOS keyboard seems to give the letter to the left of the one you pressed like 3-5% of the time?

Go Birds Friday.

I’ve had a hard week, can we please go for all four quarters today? I’ve even broken out the green mascara.

Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends.

Made it through game night (Bruges, Hot Streak, and Furnace), and home, and please god just let me sleep.
I am trying game night on 3 hours sleep and this is probably a mistake but also better than sitting at home brooding about how transitioning has completely fucked up everything I worked for for 25 years other than I got to be happy for a little while.

Clearly a work group out for dinner at the pub I’m grabbing dinner with and I find I really miss those type of things.

What about the nonconsenting unions between priests and children? Those still ok Pope Leo?

Didn't fall asleep to 3am due to insomnia and crying from the horrid day yesterday, so this one is shaping up greaaaaat.

Today has been an absolutely horrid day and I'm so close to my breaking point where I can't take any more bad news.

Ending the right to jury trial sure is something, especially as they've made it illegal to protest the government. There is a word for this ... fa, fas ... fa something, but it's not coming to me.

At least we can fire Patullo. 49ers are stuck with Purdy.

Have to do bloodwork and urine test tomorrow for just a checkup, and it’s the first urine test post surgery and I’m nervous I’ll mess it up 😆

I don't know how to introduce this one. After three titles about opium peddling, I figured the rest of SDHistCon would be breezy by comparison. I was wrong. The next day, I experienced one of the toughest board games I've ever played. Perhaps *the* toughest. spacebiff.com/2025/11/24/u...

After the first day of SDHistCon, where I played three games about opium peddling, I figured the second would be easier on my stomach. I could not have been more wrong. It has no name. Its designer…

Happy Go Birds day to everyone who celebrates.

New lipstick that I got as a birthday gift from Sephora. It’s pretty close to my standard colour but glossy instead of matte. I think I like it.
