  • I hang out with my cats.

    People have weird impressions of animal companions, especially cats, because they treat them poorly. You should raise animals like children: learn from a good cat parent directly and read up on evidenced-based books. It’s easy to see parallels with poor parenting: intergenerational poor parenting, nuclear families where the grandparents aren’t actively engaged in teaching how to parent, absent parents due to capitalisms unending grind.

    It takes patience, positive reenforcement, consistency, and commitment. But cats can be best friends.

    I’d classify battlestar is an easy game. Both Nemesis and New Angeles are more complex to teach and learn to new, especially non-hobbyist, people. However, this also means games don’t drag on or feel long; even if you’re loosing there’s something to think about and time flies.

    I would find it difficult to enjoy a short negotiation game - as the consequences over time are part of the fun. For something short and social I might recommended Ra or Modern Art, both by Knizia, while not having traitor mechanics someone will betray a deal every game.
