We love to see it!
I've had the honor of not only playtesting Bolted, but also watching the absolute care to detail @davidmalki.com has put into this project via WIP. It's INCREDIBLE. So much fun to play – @makinaro.com & I laughed A LOT! I just backed it and you should too! 🥳🙌 www.kickstarter.com/projects/mal...

In a closed-door White House meeting, Mamdani reminds Trump that it's way more fun to be a freewheeling urbane millionaire than deal with the drudgery of backstabbing politics.
No one actually witnesses Trump leave the White House, but his suitcase is discovered missing the next morning

A really lovely and thoughtful article.
“History shows us that the right to literacy came at a heavy cost…those oppressed recognized that literacy is liberation. To my students & to anyone who might listen, I say: Don’t surrender to AI your ability to read, write & think when others once risked their lives & died for the freedom to do so”

It's cool that Youtube lets you A/B/C test thumbnails. I wonder if I should go with "standard explainer guy", "tiktok react streamer", or "sociopath"

One of the best things to recognise in yourself as a creative person is when you are Sauceless.
Not art blocked. Not struggling with a difficult creative problem.
Being Sauceless is when you've done good work but have been staring at it for too long, and risk making it worse through noodling.

"Well, team, things look bad enough for us that it may be time to distract everyone *with* the Epstein files"
I mean, I am somewhat glad the national conversation has shifted, but I am still worried about my ACA subsidies

I couldn't figure out why my Photoshop color picker was showing me all kinds of weird colors. I couldn't find a gray. It was impossible to navigate.
I have been using Photoshop for *27 YEARS* and *TODAY* I realized that next to each of those little boxes is a RADIO BUTTON that CHANGES THE PICKER

Better things are possible if you just believe in them and work for them and fight for them. (I am speaking in this case specifically about discounted breakfast burritos at the market in my neighborhood)

After generations of family adventures, Sawyer Lee is determined to sink in the couch! The problem is that it will take a regrettable amount of energy for him to escape the mysteries, conspiracies, and gourd-based festivities the whole town throws his way.
