HELEN: Gax, would you like a cookie?
GAX: Oh, thank you, but no. In truth, I’m a diabetic.

HELEN: Are you just saying that so you don’t have to eat my cookies?
GAX: I assure you, Helen: what you would term my pancreas does not secrete enough insulin to allow me to handle what you would term your cookies. It’s a condition.

HELEN: I don’t know, why can’t you just shapeshfit your pancreas back into health? Morph those cells around until it works again?
GAX: Do you take me for a fool? Upon receiving the diagnosis, do you not think that was the FIRST THING I TRIED?

[[THAT NIGHT:]]
GAX: RRRRRGGHH

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!
