Actually finding Blusky more chill than Instagram. I like that it restricts me to only 4 pics per post and I can input alt text directly from the post (instead of buried in a side menu 2 layers deep). And I’m restricted in characters so not tempted to waffle or overtag. #socialmedia #beingchill

Finally broke out our Kickstarter Flamecraft Duels. Love the tokens. The box plus board feels less durable. While a nice idea, I feel like a neoprene mat for the board would have been nicer and longer lasting, while keeping the picnic vibe. #boardgames #boardgamegeek #brightmoments #flamecraftduels

Friend loaned us the Kickstarter version of Septima. Definitely high brain. Now played 2, 3 and 4 players and enjoyed myself. More players made getting witches harder. The shapeshifting expansion was an easy add in. Like the theme although the board is a bit busy. #boardgames #boardgamegeek #septima

I love Gazania. My spring/summer time garden is full of vibrant blooms. My favourites are the orange ones. #brightmoments #gazania #flowers

Learned Spirit Island at Wellycon this year too. Glad we had someone who had played before as it was a complex first play. Not sure it is for me. A heavier cooperative game. Theme was interesting and the tension you feel as you play was engaging. #wellycon #boardgame #boardgamegeek

Horrendously late Day 2 Wellycon: We won Clash of Magic Schools. Should’ve been easier to learn than it was. Enjoyed replaying Aboretum. Finally learned Teen Titans Go Mayhem and it was amusing. Glad day 2 was good quiet fun. #wellycon #boardgames #boardgamegeek #brightmoments

Pictures of these two goobers who are now 2 years old. Grey tabby girl is Selina. Perpetually hungry for anything resembling food, cuddles holding onto your shoulders and nibbles earrings. Oz the black and white boy is curious, an explorer, will sit near you but not on your lap. #furbaby #cats

Day 2 Wellycon (1 of 2): Stamp Swap, easy and attractive. A game that actually keeps to the box time! Nice and short.

Woohoo! Finally got my import tool from instagram working! Comments would’ve been truncated to the 300char limit and some posts split that had more photos. But on the whole, happier having my history. Grateful to the creator #importtobluesky #marcomaroni

Lego local brick show, hot drinks and muffins at Munch, dressed up in purple and black cause I can. Gendered clothes be damned. First day of Sweat with Pride. Need to do a walk or elliptical session later. #brightmoments #longweekendvibes

Had the pleasure of playing the kickstarter version of Critter Kitchen with friends. The game pieces were so lux! Gorgeous quality. The game was easy for me to learn, worker and resource management with options for variety each play through. Loved it. #kickstarter #critterkitchen #brightmoments #...
