Comic Transcripts

Is this 817 Newberry Avenue?
This is Zion, O simpleton. Thusly have I christened my sanctuary, my ascetic outpost, which secludes me from all worldly cares.

For Zion, O heathen, is where I deprive myself of every human comfort to more fully understand the deep mysteries of Kabbalah.

Yeah, well, where do you want the Christmas tree?

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

May 8, 2026 by David Malki !

Last year, I participated in Genius Northwest, a gaming competition inspired by the Korean gameshow The Genius and its ilk.

It’s a reality show without the cameras — a 3-day, all-inclusive weekend retreat structured around a series of challenges and puzzles, in which personalities and dealmaking matter as much as playing games.

It’s truly a remarkable thing. I came in dead last in the competition, but I still had a great time participating.

The event is held annually in the Pacific Northwest (hence the name) and applications are now open to participate in the 2026 competition!

Learn more — and apply — at GeniusNW.com.
