Smashing Rivers of London VIP game this morning. The players were wonderful and I laughed a lot. The Call of Cthulhu panel was followed by lots of chatting to happy gamers, then rounded the day off by watching Mike Mason run a game for the Miskatonic Playhouse

Does anyone know where my son’s glasses are?
He gave them to his mum before swimming, I did not see them during 🏉 rugby, and his mum is still asleep . . . Your guess is as good as mine at this point.
(I found a nice pen whilst looking for the glasses #winner)

A blog for tabletop game creators. One of the commonest issues I note when editing TTRPGs is too many colons. It gets a bit messy! The key is to understand bullets.

[Editor's desk] Controlling colons and dodging bullets
TTRPG and boardgame writers tend to throw around too many colons. A lot of it is about right and wrong ways to use bullets. Tim Gray explains.

You know the post apocalyptic lifestyle is very dear to me.
Any healthy person spends at least 1 hour a day thinking about their survival plans for the inevitable day . . .
Speaking of inevitable, getting @rinahaenze.bsky.social to have your back with a shotgun and a smile would be a good move.
