Comic Transcripts

[[A couple is in the glorious outdoors]]

Woman: Oh, Henry! This picnic was just what I needed. I get so worn out having to watch Emily all the time. She gets into such mischief!

Woman: Speaking of which – who’s looking after her now?
Henry: Ah, I’m sure she’s fine. Probably doing girl stuff – playing with dolls, you know, or baking muffins or some crap like that.

[[Emily is in bed with a wolf in a bonnet]]
Emily: We cannot tell anybody.

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.
