I recently removed twitter from the main screen of my phone, and it's kind of amazing how that tiny bit of friction has reduced my interest in opening that cursed app.

Instead of on Twitter - let's try this here & see if it works by now. If you're developing a game, or released one: reply with the title, description, screenshots, and/or a link. Doesn't matter what stage of development you're in. Then repost this, and let's see what cool stuff we're all making.

I am so happy for the SdJ winners. Fantastic games. Also, I updated this slide: SdJ: Since 1979, 142 designer noms for 112 games. 7 were for women. Kenner: Since 2011, 64 designer noms for 42 games. 5 were for women. No women were nominated in 2023 or 2024. PLAY MORE GAMES WITH AND BY WOMEN

This is a chart with colored squares for each year that SdJ has made awards. The squares show how many total designers have been nominated each year, and how many of them are women. The takeaway message is: 
Since the Spiel des Jahres began in 1979, women have been nominated 7 times (out of 142 total designer nominations for 112 games). 
Since the Kennerspiel began in 2011, women have only been nominated for the Kennerspiel 5 times (out of 64 total designer nominations for 42 games). 
No women were nominated in 2023 or 2024.

I haven't actually read the article yet but if the answer isn't "The partially dismembered body of the world's first richest man" my disappointment will echo through this hotel like the howling of a lonesome train wolf.

A copy of Wine Spectator with a picture of a ratty looking man in a suit and beside him the headline What's in the Cellar of the World's Second Richest Man?

Our home loan was on a fixed rate for two years. That ends in one month, and then our interest rate jumps up. We got a letter today saying how much and it's almost an 83% increase. How the hell are we supposed to deal?

Hahahaha. On twitter I literally just hit send on a reply saying something about Elon and got this. It says I can only dm, but I get the message again if I try. So eh.
