I love the board game magazine Senet so much that I became horrified when I thought my subscription had lapsed. I quickly re-subscribed and threw more money at them. It turns out it hadn't lapsed at all and I got two of the latest issue. So I bought a Senet tee shirt. @danjolin.bsky.social

This was a fun chat!

I’ve been doing a big MCU rewatch with my son (in no particular order), and I can now say with some confidence that the most entertaining character, in terms of wringing the most fun value out of every second on screen is...

It's the final week of our big Summer back-issue sale! Use the below codes to help fill any gaps in your collection!

Terrence Stamp fucking rocked.

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are.

In other news, I wrote a thing about a fun, mad, splatty film…

Just got home from holiday to find advance copies of my next two Iconic Directors books have arrived. And what a handsome pair they are…

Hey everyone! Here’s my review of Fantastic Four: First Steps!

Sometimes, I long for him

SENET is a pretty great magazine (not just because I’m featured in an issue or two - haha, even despite that mistake) Worth a sub if you’re interested in a deeper dive into the hobby

Bye forever, WeTransfer.

If you have any interest in board games - design, art, history, or playing - Senet is a terrific resource. Highly recommended.

Just a reminder, in case you've got any back issues missing from your collection!

So I’ve spent a few hours trying to get into Diablo IV for the first time (on PS5), and can I just ask: what the fuck is going on?

I watched Heads of State today. Twice. And I have no regrets.

Just wanna share a lovely positive thing I experienced. On Friday, I went to Smithfield Piano in London to see Maka, a Nigerian singer-songwriter who recently moved to the UK. The reason I was there, to be honest, was because my son is somehow a bass-playing prodigy and has joined her band...

Just because I now live on a tropical island, doesn't mean I'm willing to miss out on boardgame shenanigans 😌 Did it take 2 weeks to get to me? Yes. Worth the wait? Also yes. @senetmagazine.bsky.social

So this evening I was given an award: “Vibe of the Show”, by the amazing Nigerian singer Maka. ❤️

I am now excited about Bond again.
