The wonderful Secret Passages zine about retro tabletop gaming & culture returns on Kickstarter!

It’s worth checking out on its own merits, but also I wrote a standalone scenario for the KS featuring pirates & curses that can be used with any low fantasy RPG!

despite promising multiple times that they absolutely would not, parcelforce have returned the package with £1300 of antifascist minis shirts to Sender, 7 weeks after holding them without explanation. proper email coming to everyone waiting as soon as I have the Spoons. sorry!

this has been a near perfect distraction the last couple of days, especially given the frosty turn. thanks to @judgefredd.bsky.social for the recommendation and good lord have i expanded the to-do list of models

thought this was an article about Scramble 😬
This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result.

A really lovely and informative and engaging interview with Graeme Wend-Walker about one of my favorite novels. I still haven't dived into Graeme's new book on Hoban, but it's on my table giving me come-hither glances every day!

you should add to the # of reads, it's *very* good
If you'd told me a while back that my piece on Twilight 2000, the Cold War, an apocalyptic imagination would rack up over 1000 reads in a short space of time, I would have laughed. I'm delighted that it's reached such a wide audience for something in a scholarly publication like the JAS.
Hurrah! My article on the Twilight 2000 RPG in the Journal of American Studies is now open access (OA), so anyone who wants to can have a read. OA is important to me, as I want my work on RPG history to go beyond the academy and reach the gaming public.

if i ever come back as a student then I'd very much like to attend the Cambridge schools of Medicine, please, they're fucking lush. I've stayed in hotels far worse than the breakout areas and eaten in restaurants worse than the canteens here
