Good morning and happy Monday from New England! Things are heating up, for better or for worse, so that's pretty exciting for Civ! Maybe not for everyone, but I truly hope that things are turning for the better in terms of finding joy on Civ. It is a struggle and I really do understand that in a very serious sense. But even I've found some renewed interest in Civ recently, which I think it's really just dipping into something novel that I ha...

Good morning and happy Marathon Monday from Boston! I can't give that much away in Boston, and I'm not running a marathon today, god no. But it's been a very hectic and also exciting week for me in real life, so much so that things are moving surprisingly fast in my own life.

Go outside and get some eclipse glasses before y...

Good morning and happy April from New England! Well, I mean, what did you expect, an April Fools joke? I know I'm one of the most respected publications on the platform (if you can really call it that), but this would be a pretty heinous crime to spout fake news on a day like this. We're literally in the middle of a serious election year and you want me to make jokes about a Minecraft block game? I couldn't possibly do that, at all. As you ...
