Hero realms or Star realms - both great with 2 players since it can be vs or cooperative

Zombicide. HeroQuest. TransAmerica. King of Tokyo.

Those were the four this winter, anyway.

… also Dragonwood. But that’s a card game. Not sure if that counts.

Munchkin - so everyone is pissed and stuck inside after.

Caught it too. The difference between even a teensy tiny sliver of sun peeking out and actual totality is wild.

We should set their salary by their record. Every 6 months we go online and see a list of their votes/bills and then award them a set amount per vote or bill we agree with. Saved some turtles? That's a $2k per year raise. Voted to deregulate banks? Lose $5k.

But, Fyucker - won't the two sides just cancel each other out? Not if the politicians focus on what we ALL want.

Sure, there are probably flaws in this system, but I just made it up and I don't get paid to fix politics, plus the flaws could be ironed out.

I’ll always advocate for Terraforming Mars or Arkham Horror. There are no other tabletops like them.

Backgammon and cribbage.

big Clue guy right here

Essex town water is great imo

in the early 1900 Vermont was decimated logging and the The Green Mountain National Forest wasn't established until the 1930's. there were a lot of regulations about felling trees and incentives to plant new ones around that time

I'm not against the idea of paying politicians a much higher wage than what is being proposed.

Make the position worthwhile, so it attracts more than people who can do it on the side.

This as a side quest is perfect

True story

I'm shocked it wasn't the VTDigger on this one.

Hopefully this will lead to more working-class folks being represented in the statehouse. Gotta get those landlords out of there.

Because it's mud season and too early for the "runaway cows" stories.

Wow, brat of politician busted throwing a house party. If we were still in the 80s they'd make an "underdog gets the girl" movie from it. Geesh.

Yeah, I usually don't engage but this is an interesting topic outside just the political sphere. Right now VT politics is pretty much restricted to people who can afford to not work 6 months out of the year.

Rama is the chief shit stirrer here.

Well now there’s no way we could adopt something so… fair and balanced

It should be on a sliding scale. If you're someone like Dick Mazza with plenty of passive income and are well off, then you get less (or nothing) than someone who has a low annual income.

They gentrified were they lived now have flocked to were we live for it’s beauty, quaintness, and meridian of other reasons. Then realize we don’t have delivery and this place would be great if it had a Starbucks…or insert other mega corp. Said etc out of stater

you have to get in the weeds to find them but there are a ton of Historical societies and even a few "museums" of Vermont History.

Cry me a river.
