Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

Kidnapping near Crete is a new level of audacity even for Israel. They saw from the last flotilla that there would be no diplomatic consequences for their actions. Appealing to our authorities to sanction them has done essentially nothing, we need to directly disrupt their supply chain from Europe

I can’t stop eating custard cream biscuits.

I love making messy, weird zines about my research using public domain images and @alienmelon.bsky.social 's Electric Zine Maker. The process, and the constraints, are the point.

Out tomorrow! I spent two years working on Aphelion, and I can't wait to see what it looks like, and feels like, in the end 🚀🧊💫

South of Midnight is a Peabody Award winner!! For 86 years, @peabodyawards.bsky.social has honored #StoriesThatMatter. It takes heart and steadiness to tell stories rooted in folklore, stitched with care to carry the weight of beauty and the truth of scars. @xbox.com #PeabodyAwards #PeabodyWinner

You're in charge. Censor all illegal content. And believe in the light of the sun. A narrative game I made in a week for Thailand Summer Jam!! Check out AUTO CENSOR SYSTEM here :) tanatb.itch.io/you-are-the-...

I may as well reshare it myself 😇

Pick up the nearest book, turn to p. 42, and post the second sentence. I’m cheating because the book closest to me is Ross Sutherland’s collection of poetry, Emergency Window, so I’m posting the entire poem!

The best thing about having a car is being a driver/taxi for friends and family. Yes, happy to drop you to Heathrow. Costco shop time? Sure! Spring clean trip to the recycling centre, say less!!!

Hello! Are you someone in London who's interested in weird playful experiments and commercially implausible games? I've written up some of the stuff happening as part of this year's London Games Festival that I think you should check out buttondown.com/holly/archiv...

‘Israelis believe that they have even more freedom to act than they imagined, and seem unperturbed by what the world thinks of their actions.’ Amjad Iraqi on the Israeli military playbook. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

#Lebanon: Following yesterday's Israeli airstrike on a residential neighbourhood in #Beirut, five people were killed, including a 15-year-old girl and two Sudanese migrants. Fifty-two people, including eight children, were wounded, according to the Ministry of Public Health.

Today I’m sharing a few black cat sketches. I really like the bold, decisive brushwork in this group. The lines are looser and more direct. Black cats already carry a strong presence, and drawing them this way feels especially satisfying. #shouxinsketch #petart #animalart #cat #sketch #sketchdaily

PAYPHONE - Then the ocean breaks. Out of the depths, a woman's voice emerges. Small. The dearest thing you've ever heard.

😱 #nanoreno2026 game jam COMPLETE! Made a demo for Check Mates, a #chess based visual novel. Poured so much energy in and really pleased. Feeling like it could maybe be a full game. Sprites, cutscenes, code, writing, narrative, game design by me! unaminh.itch.io/check-mates #gamedev #indiegames

I'll be showing a little prototype of a new game during this. I had the wonderful privilege of spending a couple of weeks on a residency at Pervasive Media Studio, and got to play around with some new ideas that have formed into something a bit weird and a bit cute.

I'm about to get even more annoying, because we now have ONE WEEK LEFT to power mental health activities for more than eighty kids who were in occupation prisons!! Kids to whom we owe a million times more than this! Therapeutic workshops & recovery kits: chuffed.org/project/hmg

Leftfield submissions are now open for 2026: airtable.com/appIQDFmYU3o...

Kicking off London Games Festival 2026, Dundee-based curator and producer @susepicious.bsky.social presents a gaming-inspired Friday Late event at V&A South Kensington!  📆 Friday 27 March, 6:30 - 10pm 🎟️ https://www.vam.ac.uk/event/Wl9jvzQb6a/friday-late-march-2026

Today is #WorldSparrowDay & you know that we are huge fans of sparrows! If you have a garden, it's a great time of year to put out a water bowl for the birds, or a feeder. If you don't have a garden, bringing some seed out to local sparrow haunts works too ❤️ www.worldsparrowday.org

I've written a book! Next Level: Making Games That Make Themselves is the story of procedural generation - the tech behind games like Minecraft and Dwarf Fortress. It's about how it works, the games that use it, and the art and magic behind it. Out May 7th, in bookshops: linktr.ee/next_level 🎲🔮

Settled in for a 12 hour coach journey and my headphones are no where to be found. But I have my kindle, and this verse from the song of the day on loop in my head: “All the news of home, you read, Just give you the blues…” (Joni Mitchell’s California)
