This came my way. Thought it was useful and worth sharing:

NEW: Maura Healey just said what Washington’s been dodging: Kristi Noem needs to go. Trump needs to end these ICE operations. And Congress needs to hold them accountable. That’s a governor drawing a line and daring the federal government to cross it again.

@TheJunglist @UnpackingALife @LostWordsGame I just picked up her Well-Read game book - looking forward to it.

@WriteGameRead @UnpackingALife @LostWordsGame It looks very special! High praise from Tracy. 🙂

I asked Tracy Fullerton - author of The Well-Read Game - which games were best to learn "aesthetic readings," bringing ourselves fully to games as art. She didn't even have to think: @UnpackingALife and @LostWordsGame

This week’s games played in my new Narrative-Driven Analog Games course: For the Queen, Rory’s Story Cubes, Nanofictionary.

@akochowi @djackthompson @gmtgames My goodness, yes. Quite the companions!

@WriteGameRead @djackthompson @gmtgames You are in the booklist too, along with some excellent company there as well!

Cart is loaded for the first day of classes! Which games do you think students will borrow to play first?

@akochowi @djackthompson @gmtgames What excellent company!

I think @WriteGameRead is the most represented designer in this load, just beating out @djackthompson, and @gmtgames the most represented publisher.

Thanks for posting @SaltPeppergames

@OberstWKlink Well played.

@WriteGameRead Got the perfect sequel to your game, Maurice. Just in case it doesn't work out.😆

Day 1 of Hill meetings with the gaming industry on tariffs. Felt great to be with volunteer advocates who traveled to DC on their own dime to defend our community. If you’re not part of the new GAMA, you should be. @gmtgames @TheGAMAOnline @fortcircle

@SaltPeppergames @UKGamesExpo @MeepleFoundry Thank you for sharing! Great to hear this!

What an incredible second day at @UKGamesExpo Operation Barclay was a blast and all people that had the chance to play it, they bought it! Many thanks

I dig this. @RogerTankersley @FloodgateGames

@gengelstein Yes - I greatly enjoyed this. I anticipate asking grad students to read it for next year’s class on historical simulations.

Cardboard Ghosts, by Amabel Holland , is a Top Read of 2025! Purchase at this link or wherever fine books are sold. routledge.com/Cardboard-Ghos…

@BurdenOfCommand @playersaidblog Thank you for sharing!

Crisis: 1814 from Worthington Publishing comes to an end in Turn 5 as the Germans mobilize and start WWI. My British won with 14 victory points. Such a great game that needs more widespread attention for the great game it is.

@arturthekingg @cardboardpusher @Justegarde Thanks, Artur!

@WriteGameRead @cardboardpusher Hi Mau, I definitely remember having Justin Fassino @Justegarde with us, there was also a 4th person that I can't recall, maybe Justin does?

Today - playtesting Elizabeth: England Aflame, a 4-7 player hidden role game about spies in Elizabeth I’s England. 3-5 different factions. You can persuade others to join you, and change your allegiance. Certainly work to do, but looks to be going in the right direction.

@arturthekingg @cardboardpusher Artur, other than Brooks Barber - can you recall the names of anyone else who played it with us in November? I wanted to make sure I didn’t forget their names when it came to listing playtesters.

@WriteGameRead @cardboardpusher I was glad to be part of this, Maurice. Game certainly looks promising! A thing I failed to emphasize: I wasn't familiar at all with the theme, but just by playing I got to know enough to make me try to play competently and, even more important, made me interested to learn more!
