the marital post-mortem (ransom notes couples edition)
a game for two people who are tired of talking about the lease.
the experience
this edition focuses on the specific friction of sharing a life. it’s a way to argue without raising your voice, using magnets to describe ‘who is more likely to lose the keys.’ julian and i use it when we’re both too exhausted for a ‘serious talk’ but still want to acknowledge the absurdity of our shared exile.
