Doom & Destiny (Advanced)

We don't fick with upholstered furniture for exactly that reason. Tables, dressers, cabinets.

Oh My Goddess! was a favorite of mine. Silly but emotionally poignant at the same time.

My wife does the furniture flipping thing. I don't think we make any money on it — but we have much nicer furniture than we could afford otherwise and between reselling the items we get rid of the low prices we pay for the incoming, we're certainly not spending money on it, either, and that's counting the cost of renting trucks to move it around.

I'm on slrpnk.net and midwest.social

Slrpnk espouses solarpunk, obviously, which is a heavily anarchist and progressive ideology with a focus on ecological conservation.

Midwest is nominally left-leaning but under a thick creamy layer of Midwestern mind-yer-own-beeswax.

Normal, yes; healthy, no.

Years later? Sure.

Months later? Hells to the no.

I started a new job I really like, and got offered a promotion at the old job.

No. My mother has unretired twice and my grandmother has come out of retirement four times. They don't have the knack for it and I doubt I will either.

Older millennial American man, yes, you got me

I read on the toilet, on the bus, while doing dishes. I read while falling asleep at night and whenever I have five minutes alone during the day. I read three or more books at a time, so when I'm not in the mood for one there's two more options to engage with.

But that's me.

You'll read a lot more if you give yourself permission to read things you enjoy. Maybe start with some Terry Pratchett.

Labyrinth!

Each turn you first move one column or row of the gameboard over by one, then move as far as you like along any unobstructed path as you race against other players to collect magiffins in the ever-changing maze.

It's a game that rewards both creative thinking and sabotage. It helps develop strategy and spatial reasoning. It's simple enough for a kindergartner to learn but engaging enough for adults to enjoy even after dozens of games.
