inOpen adoption agreement changed after 5 years, I had no say
Did you ever look into whether your state's laws say anything about keeping contact agreements once they move out of state? Because here is the thing people don't tell you. Once they cross state lines, your agreement usually falls under whatever the new state says, and most states don't care about open adoption deals at all. They are not even worth the paper they are printed on in a lot of places. So the move to Ohio probably gave them an easy out and they knew it. You can try to take it back to court where the adoption was finalized, but that only works if the judge signed off on the contact terms in the first place. If it was just a handshake deal between you and them, you are mostly stuck. Get a lawyer who knows adoption law in both states and find out what you can actually do.

inHand-picked cozy bundles beat the mega collections every time
...which is funny because I bought that same bundle, and I ended up just replaying Untitled Goose Game for the fifth time instead. The irony is I used to love digging through huge collections back in the Flash game era, where you'd just click through thirty janky things until one clicked. But now the act of picking becomes its own chore, you know? My brain sees a list of 40 titles and immediately goes into spreadsheet mode, comparing lengths and genres, and by the time I'm done I've lost the actual urge to play. A Short Hike though, that one just drops you in and lets you wander, and I remember actually smiling at the screen. It's like the difference between a buffet and a really good sandwich. Sometimes you just want the sandwich.
