Librarian by day. Nerd 24/7. Probably thinking about board games. (She/Her) https://linktr.ee/orangerful

I keep seeing this and wondering if it is written by AI as clickbait because it’s so … ugh
And, of course, the last game of the day was Captain Flip because I love Captain Flip! I hope everyone I played with had as much fun as me. I always try to be a good "hobby ambassador" at those events, inviting people to join when a spot is available.
Next up, we played Hot Streak, which was just as ridiculous as I had hoped. Amazing table presence and just laugh out loud ridiculous. Then the couple I had sat down with said they had wanted to play Ticket to Ride for the first time, we we played that...I understand the scoring better now!
We played co-op Nemesis since 2 of the people had never played before. The game was nice to us and we actually won it within the hour of playtime!
Went to my FLGS for the "Board Game Social" event today and it says a lot that I only took one photo the whole 5 hours I was there - I walked in the room, found someone with Nemesis set up, coerced 2 other people to join us and then just kept on going!
With everything going on in the world, it’s nice to be a part of community event and spread library joy! Best distraction ever (though I forgot my coat and it’s cold!!!)

I don't know how a large review outlet that purports to take itself seriously can release a video "I don't care about your indie game". It's one thing to be realistic about what you can cover but this is just deeply incurious and unnecessarily cruel.
I think I have maybe watched one of their videos in the past, and they just resonated the gatekeeper vibe...which must be the audience they probably appeal to also...people who enjoy being incurious and cruel at the table.
Had not heard of this but now it's on my list! TY!

We know times are tough for a lot of Marylanders right now, especially our Federal employees. If you need help with groceries or meals, we've updated our Food Resources page with a few additional options, including resources for families, kids, seniors, and even pets.

my branch is closed today because SURPRISE new HVAC install so I took most of the day off...which has now been filled by taking kitty to the vet. :( I think he has hyperthyroidism but obviously gotta take all the tests ($$$) first.
I really want there to be a Captain Flip expansion in that trunk...
Essen, here we are !

Any leads?
Can you help my friend at the library by identifying what #boardgame these (unlabeled) pieces belong to?
Just realized I had not subbed to the channel so I have now watched the video, liked and subscribed. Doesn't remove this person's ignorance but wanted to feed the algorithm something positive on your behalf.
I am giggling at this extra hard because we just watched an episode from the new season of Phineas & Ferb and Dr. Doofenshmirtz made a point of returning his shopping cart stating "I'm a villain, not a monster!"
I have played all 3 once and they are all a LOT but I really enjoyed them. Inventors was the most intense learn, I think it took us 4 hours? 😅😅😅
Meanwhile, at the library: Zombie Dolls!! 🧟
Wayfarers of the South Tigris on the table tonight. I really need to learn solo mode so I can get good and demand a rematch 🤣 #boardgames
