turn-based game for your phone which is a bit like werewolf/mafia. everyone gets assigned a role of being in the 'service' or being a 'virus' and the aim if you are in the first camp is to imprison a virus by majority vote, and if you are in the second it is to avoid being voted out. each person gets a small bit of information about everyone else and then you all discuss before voting.
this is such a 'play it with your cousins on holiday' game (or at least it has been for me mostly), but honestly it is so much fun, and so funny to watch people blatantly lie or get caught out. and its always fun to do a little scheming.

they're goofy silly fun that usually devolves into madness. you set it up on a computer/laptop/console and everyone connects on their phones and play games like a murder-themed trivia game, a monster-seeking-monster dating game where you have to scooby doo style unveil monsters and hit each other up on monster tinder simultaneously... they're so good. and they aren't too pricy!

coup and secret hitler are my absolute favorites, itโs like basically all of the fun and intrigue of mafia in ~10 min so you can run multiple games in one night
i also really like kemet which has a lot of the resource management of ttrpgs and can be played with only two players (and up to five) so it doesnโt have to be a dedicated board game night game vs if you have a friend over and wanna kill some time

if you start zooming in on a pattern, and the pattern doesn't seem to get more simple as you close in, there's a very good chance you're looking at a fractal shape. my new computer hobby is going on google earth (clean setting - no borders or labels) and zooming into random places to see if i can find these patterns. and they are everywhere. in rivers, mountains, deserts, forests, coastlines and on and on. its genuinely stunning, and a little bit frightening, how the same shapes appear over and over again. the beating heart of iterative processes is plastered all over the globe at every scale. from above, the shape of a forest can look like a leaf, or a neuron, or a blood vessel.
great place to have a zoom is at the bottom of tibet, where theres a sharp cutoff between the icy mountain range and the grassy forests of nepal and bhutan. pic below is of the nile river in southern egypt. happy travels everyone
