Down for some creepy chills in a #Halloween #heist set in #Canada? You are in luck! www.amazon.ca/Fall-Affair-...

🎉☕We are thrilled to be covered by the wonderful #CoffeeWithKilroy. Subscribe to their channel, they rock! youtu.be/t0N7KjVP6w4?...

Hey, #Canada! Ready for some homegrown frights and chills this #Halloween? Check out The Fall Affair... The #heist in a #haunted #casino in ...#Ontario. www.amazon.ca/Fall-Affair-...

I think the best way to do it is to pick a sample of games and actually look the designers up. @tpobuda.bsky.social did this ~5 years ago and made this chart. Numbers would be different now (for ex @connievdc.bsky.social has had 2 games enter the top 400) but probably close.

“Welcome to hell” We spoke to 16 Venezuelans the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. This is the most complete view yet of the conditions they faced — which, some experts said, may violate conventions against torture. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Hey #Canada, are you feeling a little ...angry about the way a certain 🍊politician talks about us and our beautiful country? Us too. #Canada has the best people and #music in the world. We wrote a trilogy of #gamebooks designed to celebrate the glory that is #Canadian 80s, 90s and classic music.

“keep politics out of kids movies” disney in 1973:

The DOJ has digital tools to search 100,000 Epstein files in seconds, so why did 1,000 federal employees work 24-hour shifts to flag Trump’s name? Because it’s not about finding the truth. It’s about controlling the narrative. If there’s nothing to hide, release the files.

🎲📗My partner, I have been watching Coffee With Kilroy for a while now and so we were THRILLED to see this overview of #LockdownLudonaut's book, The Summer Job. ⛱️This accessible Choose-Your-Own Adventure style book is perfect for solo summer gaming. Perfect for the beach. youtu.be/pAN98IkhX0k?...

🤯🎹🍁Okay... THIS IS A HUGE, HUGE, HUGE DEAL!!! One of #Canada's leading Canadian music luminaries, DJ, author and creator of the Ongoing History of New Music, Alan Cross, just gave #OperationCanCon a shout out!!!! #Gamebook #InteractiveFiction #ChooseYouOwnAdventure #ElbowsUp

🧵Just heard about the death of #JuliettePowell. Stunned... I was just messaging someone how she was a major influence on our musical tastes in the #1990s, not only expanding the reach of dance music with #ElectricCircus, but giving more exposure to Francophone music through #FrenchKiss...

🎎📚This gamebook was created after YEARS of studying #ChooseYourOwnAdventure and #interativeFiction, and determining what works and what doesn't. 🗾The result was one of the best Choose Your Own Adventure narratives I've ever read. 👍🏼 youtu.be/QoEG66QAasA?...

🍁📚Looking for a gift this #CanadaDay or a fun activity out of the heat...? Check out #OperationCanCon the physical media, #Canadian #music #shopping simulator. #Gamebook #InteractiveFiction #HowToPlay youtu.be/ReOzN3XMO0U?...

🍁This series is my favourite because ...I AM CANADIAN! 🍺🦫 This #gamebook is a direct response to the threats to #Canadian sovereignty and is pure, distilled #timetravel into #GenX #Toronto nostalgia. Walk down the #YongeStreet strip shopping for #Canadian music. youtu.be/h-DTnyRzH1k?...

🎲🍁You guys... My partner has written six (6!!) #interactivefiction #gamebooks (and created an entire game system) in less than eight months. This is my partner's store on #Amazon. I'm in awe of their productivity and genius. These games are really, really good. www.amazon.ca/stores/autho...

I Can’t Buy Any New Games Until I Play The Ones I Already Own But I’m Near The Game Store So Let Swing In And Just Look At What They Have A Memoir

i remain an absolute sucker for a cool oracle deck, look at this friggin thing

🧂🗣️🎉Okay. COOLEST THING EVER! The LEGENDARY #MandiHutchinston has given a shoutout to #Operation CanCon by Derek Schraner the 1980s Music Shopping Simulator Gamebook. 🎉🎉🎉Check out this AWESOME #lunchtime live from ‪@SaltandSassGames‬ !!!! #ElbowsUp #Canada youtube.com/post/UgkxteW...

I feel like this is a statement about our society where the powerful evil people get to operate purely on vibes with no basis in reality (read a new york times headline recently) and the rest of us in the real world are so overwhelmed by the pace of the atrocities we sometimes fight each other

🍁I hope you are doing well [email protected]. My partner has channeled their nervousness about the #Canadian election, the threats of #annexation into an ambitious #Canadian #gamebook series abt #shopping for #Canadian music in the 1980s, 1990s, early #Canada www.amazon.ca/stores/autho...

Happy International Workers' Day! We built the roads, the cities, the systems and we keep them running. Never forget: without workers, nothing moves. Solidarity forever. ✊✊✊ #GameDev #WorkersDay #InternationalWorkersDay #PowerToThePeople

As the song says: In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold / Greater than the might of armies magnified ten-thousandfold / We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old / When the union makes us strong! Happy May Day!

Do you miss shopping at gone-but-not forgotten #Toronto #musicstores like #HMV #SamTheRecordMan and #TowerRecords? Me too. This solo #gamebook is your chance to recapture the feeling of bin-driving for physical media in a mission to save #Canadian culture and #identity from those.

📀💿☎️Another one! Operation CanCon: Nineties Released! As a lone collector on a mission, your goal is to target a checklist of tracks scattered in iconic #Toronto music shops. Part interactive fiction, part solo roll-and-write #game, every visit is a gamble, whether for ten minutes or a campaign.

Oh please oh please oh please.

This is such a relief! #CDNPoli

Trump pleads with his war criminal patron "Vladimir" over social media not to make him look too stupid as Trump gives everything to Russia and justifies past murder and enables future murder. And Putin laughs at him.

🍁⛔It makes sense that the #Conservative leader #Poilievre would feel this way. His political beginnings were spent in an right-wing Western separatist, white #Evangelical breakaway political party that campaigned against immigration, equal rights for women, the #LGBTQ+ community. lnkd.in/g3XHwiir

Poilievre has even been endorsed by #Trump himself. lnkd.in/gZvtJEKB

And those who say "Canada isn't a real country" and "Canada has no culture" are roaring their approval at #PierrePoilievre. 9/11 Truther Laura Loomer and Trump advisors asks how Trump and his supporters can help #PierrePoilievre get elected. lnkd.in/gvcuMabK

This is so awful. #boardgames www.polygon.com/gaming/56428...

Today in Politics, Bulletin 117. This is a big one packed with lots of news from all over the place. Here is everything that happened today. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

⚡ ⚠️ 🚨 🍁 One thing is clear. #PierrePoilievre who ran on the slogan, "Canada is broken" does not seem to care much for #Canada. I've been watching #podcast interviews like this one, and I was struck by how much the current leader of the #CPC seems to dislike our country.

"Wingspan and Vantage publisher Stonemaier Games announced on Monday its intention to join a lawsuit against United States President Donald Trump over his new, sweeping 145% tariffs on goods imported from China." www.polygon.com/tabletop-gam...

Thanks looks like fun.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Damn, this guy is smart. We have an opportunity to elect someone with true knowledge and understanding of how economies function. Please 🇨🇦, elect a smart capable leader like Carney instead of a power hungry economics illiterate conman liar like Poilievre. #cdnpoli #CanadaSky #Housing #Elxn2025

3. This Carney plan for housing, addresses deep-seated issue that have been ignored for decades. Particularly the Harper/Poilievre years where infrastructure was starved for almost a decade. Leaving a massive deficiency to clean up. Carney is a globally renowned economist, who understands this issue

Excellent! Well Done, Pope!

Only one of these men has a criminal conviction—and his name isn’t Kilmar Garcia!

It’s been almost 250 years since we organized a political revolution to overthrow a king and constitute a new democracy. Maybe we’re overdue.

This is not normal. This government gets closer and closer every day to declaring war on its own people. This post is a clear and direct statement of intention to defy the Supreme Court and end rule of law in the United States.

North America’s Building Trades Unions (@NABTU) President Sean McGarvey demands the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who is a SMART Local 100 first-year apprentice. 👏🏽👏🏻👏🏿👏🏼👏🏾 #BringHimHome
