The closest I know of is !tabletopminis@lemmy.world but it's mostly people posting minis they've painted. It's also not the most active. There's also !minipainting@lemmy.ml but the newest post is from 4 months ago.

There are cheaper miniature games out there. Gaslands is Mad Max/ Death Race inspired and you use standard toy cars to play. There's also Turnip28 that's pretty much post apocalyptic Napoleonic Wars. There are cheap Napoleon era miniatures people modify for it, but I've also seen some goofier builds, like using toys and actual vegetables. I will say I haven't really played either, but they are the two miniature games I often consider getting into.

Turns out it's a math game called Magimixer.

I found this going though some things but can't figure out what it's from. All the dice are wood, with the six on the outside having a standard 1-6 numbering, while the middle one counts by tens, from 10 to 60. The plastic case doesn't open and doesn't have any markings. They are loose enough you can 'role' the dice by rubbing the whole thing on the palm of your hand. It can kind of act like a fidget spinner, but I'm pretty sure it predates them. Any searching I've done has either turned up actual fidget spinner dice or sets of roleplaying dice, so I'm turning to all of you.

I remember hearing they dropped HBO from the name because HBO is associated with more adult oriented content and they wanted to to show they have more than that. But since the name change they've been dropping Cartoon Network shows every time you turn around.

This is just a guess, but looking at satellite images it looks like there could be dry river beds in the desert. Maybe the area gets enough rain to have them, but not enough for them to lead anywhere.

While I'm sure it could be a great game, it'll never happen. WB just canceled a Wonder Woman game and shut down its developer. If they don't have faith on a game based on one of their most well known characters, there's no way they'd even green light a game based on a lower tier hero. A detective game based on the Question would be great too, but since he's not one of DC's top heroes it'll never happen.

My Instagram feed has gotten more left since Trump took office again, but I have also started following more political and activist accounts. I noticed as I was leaving Facebook the less I interacted with things the more insane posts the algorithm would show me. It could be if Meta doesn't know what you want to see it just shows you the worst hoping you engage somehow.

If just want to here random people's stories Beautiful /Anonymous is really good. Each episode the host, Chris Gethard, takes a phone call from a stranger and they talk for an hour about whatever the caller wants. Some episodes are light and goofy while others can get pretty dark. It's definitely one of my favorite podcasts.

I don't use categories, but I do keep a tab open with this loaded with my Steam ID. It uses all the tags games have on Steam so you can see if you have a 2D Sci-Fi Souls-like if you want.

They're treating him like he tried to blow up Gotham City when all he did was kill Lex Luthor.
