I'm reaching out because we just learned that the cost for our son to sit his GCSEs has rocketed & we don't have the money. He's worked so hard against so many odds. Access to education for Roma is often hard esp with additional needs please help him reach his dream 🙏 ko-fi.com/glitzydemon/...

Great games and legitimately the best place I've ever worked. A sea of humanity in what can be a soul crushing line of work at times.

Got a friend into games? I personally recommend

“Regardless, a cis woman refusing to share space with a trans woman is no different – and no less wrong – than a white woman refusing to share space with a Black woman”

Oh hello 🤩 check out this fresh interview hot off the Mage Hand High Five presses! I had such a blast recording this, it’s the first time I’ve been asked about my process for acting and it was such a joy to do. Truly honored!

Listen wherever you catch your pods.
Max and Rowan sat down for a couple bite sized interviews with the LEGENDARY @sweeetanj.bsky.social and @thecandacemarie.bsky.social about character creation and voice acting for TTRPGs.

Candace might even give the first sneak peak of our upcoming mini-series...

The fallout from Carney's ~masterful gambit~ with Alberta continued today, when the Assembly of First Nations voted unanimously for it to be withdrawn.

All the while, Alberta has already found a new fight to pick with Ottawa (coincidentally, right after Danielle Smith was booed over the deal):

Resting my head tonight knowing she’ll never be president
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

SAD season means getting in my feelings in random moments. Like today, I'm reminded that I will always love easier than I am loved, for myriad reasons (and some of them my fault). I had moments where I hoped otherwise, but time and again people step up to remind me otherwise. And so it goes.

Today is a day which reminds me of the meme:

Me: I stopped a murder today
Them: Oh my god! How?
Me: Self control

Co-workers. Can't live with them, can't suggest they use all their brain cells because apparently that contributes to a "toxic work environment" and is "harassment"😒

One thing I will do a million times over is mess with the cover. The artwork of Ivan Aivazovsky is a massive influence on this game and I'd love to see something in the vein of his work in my book.

This piece is 'Neapolitan Lighthouse' from 1842.
