Running 5 ongoing campaigns and a fair few 1-shot games - WFRP out the wazzoo. Coordinate MORPcon in Manchester. Will probably not use this for much more than gaming chat.

I do NOT go about making accusations of plagiarism lightly and I would not have taken this public if I thought I had any legal recourse at all, but more than 30 YEARS AGO 'The Bone Temple' is what, when I was a teenager, I named my bedroom

When I was at Anglia TV about 25 yrs ago, a girl in our office sent out a team email that said, “It’s been a crap Monday, who wants to come to my flat for a smoke?” Sadly she sent it to everyone in ITV. Melvyn was one of the first to reply with “That sounds lovely but sadly I’m filming in Newcastle”
Melvyn Bragg has decided to stand down as host of In Our Time, the BBC says.

Oh God no.
A huge moment -- Melvyn Bragg steps down from In Our Time after over a quarter of a century. What a programme and what a legacy! Just a model for how to make great, clever, engaging radio, and a twenty-seven-year experiment that proves there's a huge global audience for smart, scholarly programming.

Great Yarmouth is set to host the biggest neo-nazi music festival in over a decade. The Home Office has the power to block entry of overseas bands, which will scupper the promoters plans. But they won’t act unless we demand it. Email the Home Office now: hopenothate.org.uk/2025/08/28/g...

listen as somebody who has a lot of really good ideas

ideas are fundamentally worthless. sorry. we give WAY too much credence to people who have them. yeah, even good ones, dude. the only thing I respect is execution. whether it's in myself or somebody else. an idea executed is worth something

I've been giving the x-files a serious watch through for the first time, and I've been overall pretty impressed, but the start of series 4 has two back-to-back episodes that really strike at the heart of the 90's American national subconscious.
