It’s Gloomhaven you can gamesplain all you want LOL the rules are about as clear as mud. We played on the default difficulty for the number of players, 4. I don’t know, we were probably doing it wrong, but like you have x cards max, you draw in set’s of 2, I can’t remember who I played but I think it as scoundrel. So…

In both the tabletop and digital versions you can adjust the difficulty. Playing on the hardest difficulties you pretty much have to do as you described. Pure efficiency and even then you can get screwed by some bad modifier draws. On lower difficulty levels you should have a lot more breathing room. If you are…

I 100% second, as someone who owns the MASSIVE tabletop version.  In my experience with the tabletop version, you more or less have no option to actually explore the dungeon or look for treasure, since you have a hard finite limit to the number of turns you have before you die, you pretty much must head straight to…

Anybody who uses their kids for monetary gains, including all the youtube “families” are abusers in my book

Utah is home to seriously high percentage of extreme religious whackadoodles.

Doesn’t surprise me. One of the most scarily deranged women I know is a Mommy Blogger, with the most enchanting, inspiring, gorgeous Mommy Blog I’ve ever seen. Meanwhile her husband has divorced her and is bitterly struggling to win full custody of their kid.

I know at least 1 person who thinks those kids deserved it because they said “children don’t deserve rights until they pay taxes”

Celebrity culture is very incomprehensible, but influencer culture takes the cake. Why does anybody watch or listen to these people. You can’t claim transferred competence here, like this person is a good actor so they must be a good parent. The audience is complicit in these abusive stories too.

How come people want to protect the children from everything except their own parents?

The Coogan Act needs to be revised and expanded to protect kids in this situation.

“Franke’s business partner and therapist Jodi Hildebrandt.”

Reminds me of those Hart family assholes who adopted those kids and finally drove off a cliff in a murder suicide. They were literally in the same boat trying to maintain this perfect family Youtube bullshit while abusing those poor kids.

Did you need a sarcasm tag? Okay, here it is.

Wy are so many of them based in Utah? That's a critically important question to ask, I think. 

“Parental rights,” y’all!

“My credentials? Uh, hello, I gave birth!!”

I have always, ALWAYS been extremely icked out by these big youtube channels that seem to run exclusively around the “watch me mommy my 12 children” brand (that’s apparently popular, idk). Most of them give off crazy red flags and the kids never look comfortable onscreen. Isn’t this also like the third or fourth time…

Anyone who thinks they’re such a good parent that they need to make videos about how other people should do it like them is probably not a good parent.

So many people in this story are pieces of shit. There are few punishments too cruel for a mother that tortures her children. Her partner in business should also get the same treatment. The father isn’t exempt from anything and deserves punishment. The authorities of Washington County, Utah need to see several people…

I will never understand how the “family of five” people didn’t spend a day in jail.
