Hopefully farage will need to spend every penny of that 5 million quid on security. I don't use block lists or muted words, I rely on the block button, I assume I'll be using that a lot more than usual. People never fail to disappoint me.

Goodnight.

I live in a little town in West Wales. A TTRPG game shop opened and is doing really well. They are going to do an open day and event near the Castle, nothing definitive yet, but they are looking at Live D&D, LARP etc. Its nice to see something like this in one of the poorer parts of Wales.

anyone have a repository or directory or contact info for translators familiar with TTRPGs? i don’t have work right now just an idea i am nurturing, but most online services i’ve found seem focused on business/legal or are bundled with publishing

Rather a nice walk to the polling station.
