So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t...
It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article.
Please share :)

Have all of you been doing it this way the whole time?!
Instead of digging inside the duvet cover frantically trying to match each corner.
I could have simply put it inside out, tied the corners and then flipped it right side out?

If no one was smiling for family photos in the 1900s when did the idea of smiling for a photo start?
Also, how neat is it to find a photo of your great and great-great grandfather's.
Aidan Anderson would have been a much more catchy name.

Transit needs better temperature control.
In Vancouver it feels the only way to regulate body temperature is to strip down to a bathing suit while aboard a bus.
Good luck when you step back outside into the rain and temperatures 10-15 degrees cooler.

When did this idea that there are "safe" communities on the internet emerge?
Millennial here, internet launched in my lifetime, never has there been an online forum/community that didn't have a level of toxicity.
It's not good, it's the internet.

Netflix mini series idea. The protagonist, a young male working in silicon valley.
One night he breaks into a "brain corp" and has an AI surgically implanted into his brain.
The series continues as a comedy devolving to black mirror as his AI led prompts lead from funny situations to dangerous.
