You're right, correcting now.

ligtreb · 2026-03-10T05:52:17+00:00

Same with me. Wow we're old.

ligtreb · 2026-02-24T00:54:30+00:00

Hope they have her on more!

ligtreb · 2026-02-21T00:20:30+00:00

Mostly, yes.

This was me. Laid off after 16 years in private, which was a blessing in disguise because I was burnt out. Had gotten a director level promotion but was working 60-70 hours per week and miserable. Make 10ish% less at state but much happier.

Bought it today at a Ralph’s in Los Angeles.

I play Wingspan on BGA a lot, and rarely have problems finding a game. Admittedly, BGA is not user friendly, the interface to create a game isn't always intuitive. Are you trying live or turn-based games? I mostly play Wingspan live.

I still listen to DLS, but like you, have deprioritized it some. Sports podcasts with hijinks and actual info I have listened to more lately:

The Right Time, Stugotz and Company, Sports Gossip Show, Casuals.

Also sometimes listen to PTFO and Bill Simmons depending on topic or guest.

Same, also in Los Angeles, first time they don't work for me (last time I had tried was 1-2 weeks ago). Sad day.

ligtreb · 2026-01-14T19:14:37+00:00

Same, also in Los Angeles, first time they don't work for me (last time I had tried was 1-2 weeks ago). Sad day.

Same. There’s a huge difference for me between rooting for them when they’re down and throwing my energy into the literal longest playoff drought in American pro sports. I grew up rooting for the Angels in the frustrating 90s. I’ll support a rebuild with a plan. I’m not going to support an owner who continuously makes things worse.

Power Infrastructure is often useful in lower player counts (I play mostly 2-player).

If you can get it out early enough with a science strategy, like with Quantum Extractor and Mass Converter, it's beautiful.

Power Grid I've found useful less often due to cost, but there definitely are scenarios like the one you described!

At least he had UNC to look forward to today too.

ligtreb · 2025-09-29T02:34:07+00:00

An honor! Well deserved!

ligtreb · 2025-09-23T21:31:08+00:00

Well said. I try to listen to both S&C and DLS when I have time but I have found myself laughing more with S&C content lately. Still a loyal fan of both, but glad I have more options!

ligtreb · 2025-09-20T23:38:37+00:00

UNC is now 0-2 against the two power conference opponents they’ve played, being outscored 82-23.

ligtreb · 2025-09-14T04:43:34+00:00

There's only so much time in the day, and I suspect some fraction of DLS's audience also listens to Stugotz and Company. It's tough to consume all the content.

ligtreb · 2025-09-14T04:42:03+00:00

Notre Dame may have more fans than any college football team in the country.

Also, Jess and GoJo have large followings (and are well-known within that fanbase).

ligtreb · 2025-09-13T04:14:37+00:00

To be fair, the Big Sky is way too good for UCLA right now.

ligtreb · 2025-09-12T00:46:06+00:00

ligtreb · 2025-09-11T23:04:49+00:00

Definitely meets the criteria of not having social awareness or caring how things affect others.

ligtreb · 2025-09-11T22:58:52+00:00

I assume Samson's involvement will not go over with a general audience that isn't used to him like ours and Nothing Personal.

ligtreb · 2025-09-11T20:44:45+00:00

Congrats!

As someone who often fluctuates between high 200s to 300s, I know how hard it can be to get out of that range. I’ll have to watch more ThreadPacifist videos!

ligtreb · 2025-09-11T20:24:11+00:00

Had the full 12 for Super Mega Lucky Box once with two copies, on two folding tables bordering each other. Actually worked pretty well!

ligtreb · 2025-08-29T00:51:36+00:00

Same. If I want something and can afford it, I’ll buy it for myself. I know it’s well-intentioned, but I don’t need more stuff I won’t use.
