Battle of Hoth is probably one of my favorite games I picked up this weekend. Nice war game style game, but done in 30 minutes. Ton of scenarios, and you can add leader cards for additional gameplay.

Also went to a fun workshop yesterday about doing miniature painting in a comic book style. Definitely felt a little outside my comfort zone drawing the way I traditionally do in 2D in 3D (and without an undo button) but I had fun!

Actually getting to a RPG session at PAXU this year. Checking out Alice is Missing, which I loved when I ran a game for friends a few years ago, but have been looking forward to playing it not as the one running it!

For the first time ever, I managed to actually register for a workshop at PAXU. Time to level up my miniature painting.

I have a five hour next gen Acela ride coming up (yay new trains) - and now the great Train Project Choice: work on my website or work on my abandoned Ludum dare game I didn’t get to finish.

I was out of purple dye for my last minute home dye job before a trip, so I am rocking the teal for PAX Unplugged. Ready for an excellent weekend of board games.

Ever been in a meeting that fucking sucks? Rhetorical question.
Unfortunately, getting people to what you want requires that you tell them about it — and that's a meeting. Trying to get rid of meetings simply creates a dysfunctional work environment. The only fix is to design the meetings right.

This meeting could have been a picnic
Well-designed meetings are just as important to our work as well-designed artifacts.

The A11y Project is at risk of going over our 1TB bandwidth limit on @netlify.com and being automatically charged $55/100gb in bonus bandwidth to keep it online.
I think we all know the cause and it's depressing. I've asked Netlify to just let the site go down when the limit is hit.
