It’s never about protecting kids. It’s always about censorship. As a parent, it’s my job and not the government to protect them. There are ample ways to restrict what my kids can watch and have access to. Any government that says otherwise and only they can is lying to you.
You might want to read Johnathan Heidt’s recent book: “The Anxious Generation”. Here is a summation Heidt’s approves of.
The Great Rewiring of Childhood: A Smartphone-Social Media Dystopia
Good morning, friends! Please enjoy some of the wonderful illustrations from The Saga of Erick the Viking, a long-time family favorite.
Puts me in mind of that time that Erik sailed off the edge of the world!

You can only obtain this amount of money through exploitation and human suffering. This is a failure of our society and should enrage any normal person
You don't even do this. You simply collect items and do a cutscene It's an awesome cutscene, but no real interaction
Pretty hilarious to see some people say they want more originality in board games ... Meanwhile Flip 7 continues to sell and it's just a variation of Pairs.
An interesting discussion. Is aesthetics a gateway to wargaming? I think the real gateway is replaying historical facts where historical people got hurt. Fantasy confrontational or aggressive boardgaming does keep its distance from reality.
Just listened to a great interview - Justin Gary and Cole Wehrle. Cole raised an interesting point. He said designers are leaving a lot of money on the table. Many games are too adverse to conflict and aggression. Cole said that he took a gamble with Root. The team at Leder…

Forget winning online arguments; no one cares. What matters is making a real difference out there. Step away from the keyboard, get up, and train. Your community needs your energy, not another rant. Shine bright, do something that counts, and channel that vibe into real impact.
Re-used an old box and a handful of components, but put together some prototypes with the home printer and a paper cutter like old times for GenCon this year.
