I love cats, card games, cuteness so i am joyful to win this Bananya Card Game at a volunteer picnic earlier today!
We played a (networking type) bingo game and i got to choose the gift for getting “coverall” (when you get all the squares in the entire bingo sheet). I’ve wanted this game last year but couldn’t find it so i feel ecstatic 🤩
Also ate bhelpuri and samosa there for my only meal today. Tired at 18,000+ steps and 🔥 2300+ kcal @3good #3goodthings
The image shows a box for a card game titled "BANYA: The kitty who lives in a banana." The box features a light blue and white striped background with a cartoon illustration of a white cat with pink ears and cheeks, sitting inside a yellow banana peel. The cat has a happy expression with its tongue slightly out. The title "BANYA" is prominently displayed at the top in large, playful letters, with a banana graphic integrated into the letter "A." Below the title, the subtitle "The kitty who lives in a banana" is written in smaller text. The phrase "THE CARD GAME" is displayed in bold, blue letters. The bottom left corner of the box has a red logo with the text "Japanime Games." The overall design is colorful and whimsical, appealing to a light-hearted and playful audience.

Europe's far right is growing in both Eastern and Western Europe. Economic crisis, austerity, and historical revisionism are contributing factors with decades of austerity, deindustrialization, and corporate domination having devastated working-class communities.
Meanwhile, pervasive anti-communism, encouraged at the EU level, is distorting history and delegitimizing socialism as a viable alternative.
