Hi Tig,

One of the things I do to keep the ol' noodle working right is build block towers when I need to organize my thoughts, or think about the structure of the world in architectural terms.

I bought this block set back in 2017: 200 Block Kit

Block structures help me think about the world and just generally become more aware of how I'm looking at things, so I thought maybe there are other designers who think this way and might want to start a thread of bloack towers that we've all made to see what everyone tries to make.

The other day I was trying to make a Dr. Evil style inverted pyramid but I messed up during construction and knocked it over! Oops.

Here's my first contribution, pretty simple stuff so far:



If its just me posting that's fine, if other people join in GREAT. Any kind of blocks will do, Lego, wood, plastic, Cinder Blocks, I'm easy!

Edit: Renamed this thread Block Brains

First card house in ages! Maybe since high school? A sign that there is sophistry afoot?

The queen of diamonds will beat you if she's able, the queen of hearts is always your best bet, but I'm a queen of spades kind of man.
