Gotta maintain that air of mystery somehow.

As an American, I am so over our government. The current rhetoric of no compromise and fuck over the other team as much as possible is so deeply frustrating that I wish we could scrap the whole thing and start over.

Ok, so there is definitely some weirdness going on here with player incentive and optimal play. The problem is that landing a second hit on a category of parts is objectively worse than only landing one hit, as we've spent more resources to not only for the same amount of damage, but have now given our opponent a chance to chose a better downside (Even a critical hit is worse than just hitting three different components, making it not feel very critical). This means we're punishing our players for shooting more guns at their opponent, even though shooting at the opponent is how you win. Maybe consider letting the attacker choose which damage card is kept so they get something out of multiple hits?

I love the narrations, they're so good, especially this one. They make me want to "rewatch" everything, except I still can't stand the sound of my own voice.

I've never been into the build-a-joke style games like Cards Against Humanity or Apples to Apples, the humor has just never really landed for me. I've enjoyed the Jackbox stuff, and usually it's quite fun, but sometimes I'm just not up to the task of being witty on the spot. Recently my go to party game has been Codenames, which is a fun little word game played in teams, and that's been a huge hit. I've also had success in the past with Concept, which is a non-verbal communication/guessing game like Pictionary or Charades, but with the upside that no one has to draw or act.

Boter, that might be the most Canadian thing I've ever seen. I'm reminded of a conversation I had with an Australian. The topic of his countries deadly wildlife came up, and his opinion was that North America's wildlife was way scarier. It came down to this: "Yeah, a funnel web can kill me, but I can also kill a funnel web. There's no chance in hell I'm ever winning a fight with a bear or a moose, and if I do get away they don't make an antivenom for 'mauled to death.'"

As someone who lives in rural middle America, I know a whole lot of people who don't really like Trump, but vote straight ticket Republican purely on the issue of abortion. In their minds, votes for Democrats equals votes for dead babies, and as much as they may dislike people like Trump and Kavanaugh, if that's what it takes to get the laws changed, then it's all worth it. And as long as abortion remains a partisan issue, it'll take some truly heinous stuff from the Republican party for them to dare vote blue.

I don't think you're using a vibrator right if it's not getting any love.

Holy cow the opening of that last one. Damn that thing is cool.

I so cannot be assed about comic book movies anymore. Ugh. It's like eating too much candy, I can't take anymore, I just want a burger.

For you gamers out there, I got one: Loot boxes.
Fuuuuuuuuck loot boxes. Games have been using operant conditioning for ages now, but now they're not even being subtle about it. Want to get that one cool skin? Well, get fucked and buy loot boxes until you get lucky. Hope you like gambling addiction.
