[[A middle-aged individual admires the nighttime view at dusk.]]
Watcher: Honey, look at the moon!
Watcher: Come look! It’s so big and bright and low! It’s LOVELY!

Watcher: What does it mean if the moon is so big? Is it going to be hot weather or something?
Watcher: It’s SO pretty… should we take a picture?

[[The honey in question appears.]]
Watcher: It’s very romantic!
Honey: That’s a streetlight. Put your glasses on.

Watcher: It can still be romantic or possibly signify hot weather
Honey: I’m just going to ignore the parts of that that don’t make any sense, like I do every day with everything

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.
