What are the Government, police and security services doing about the people who are quite clearly in the pay of a hostile foreign state, and using their platforms to whip up actual pogroms on our streets? This is a major national security issue and absolutely nothing seems to be happening about it

Seems reasonable to me the-decoder.com/landmark-ger...

ME: What's the bear trap for? JIGSAW: For the love of... As I just said, if the bear trap is triggered this vial of acid will- ME: What's the barbed wire do? JIGSAW: I'm getting to that! If the acid is- ME (scrolling on phone): This is complicated. Let's just started playing and I'll figure it out.

Ooooh, I used to be this person and then I realized how obnoxious it really was, fortunately I figured it out in the USENET days

Unable to go to sleep because my cat is on top of the duvet where I need to get in

"For years I taught that players had to eradicate all four diseases, not just cure them. So...a lot of people out there think they lost games of Pandemic that they actually won." "Again, that sucks but it's not really a sin. How many more of these do you have?"

Slay the Spire 2: welcome back mister orbs, my true love. ❤️ going through the wholeganme killing enemies before putting my combo together, then getting to the final boss and realising the combo isn't that good.

I normally avoid Early Access, but am counting down the minutes until Slay the Spire 2. Pls. Where is it

RT if you have a job and are planning to vote Green.

Don't miss the news that an Israeli missile destroyed an Iranian girls' primary school, murdering at least 25 girls between 7 and 12 years old. At this point it might just be muscle memory for the Israeli military. www.middleeasteye.net/news/least-2...

Please, a singular dice is called a douse.

Getting grok to publicly strip a woman’s likeness online or alter her image isn’t just horrifying at the level of the individual, it’ll be used to get us fired, too. It’s a technique to keep us in the home popping out babies because we lost our teaching job when some guy sent porn of us to our boss.

People need to start caring about others & not only those directly related/affected, & not only when it's transactional. We *have* to have empathy beyond ourselves & immediate orbit of family, friends, neighborhood, & community. We have to care about total strangers who are in harm's way & in need

💼 I’m looking for work as a board game designer. 🌎 I’m open to in-person, hybrid or remote work. ⭐ I’ve previously worked at the Uzzle and made Abandon All Artichokes, Starry Night Sky, and other board games.

I like space operas. Hit me with your sci-fi book recommendations! Please RP for more ideas!

Of course I would say this, but we need to talk about the moral & ideological case for play & leisure more than ever. So much political discourse - especially from the super-rich - assumes we ought to construct society around forcing citizens to spend most of their one, unrepeatable life working.

Pubrunner! Got to reintroduce a friend to netrunner with the starter decks last night, and he's continued to trounce me: we're at 0 and 4 wins 😆 Properly have the netrunner bug again. Love this game

Hey all. Lost a big patreon this morning. I'm trying to keep this thing going with additional content every week for all patreons: links, a weekly "I'm playing" newsletter and other goodies, all for just $1. www.patreon.com/c/mattthr

Just remember - it's the box that takes up the most space. Slice the boxes at the corners, flatten them for transport, and voila - a ton more space in your luggage.

Netrunner Worlds in the morning! I should sleep, but couldnt resist the siren call to stay up late tinkering with decks. Just one more cool card!

With many of us at the beautiful Dovecot Studios in Edinburgh for #NetrunnerWorlds25, this account might be a little slow the next few days. But you can watch all the action at twitch.tv/nullsignalnetrunner or www.youtube.com/nullsignal.games starting with Crown of Servers tomorrow at 9.30 UTC!

Netrunner Worlds on Saturday & Sunday!!! I totally forgot and have missed the window to get cards, so am frantically looking up cool cards to print off tomorrow and make a deck with. If anyone has any recommendations for fun archetypes, pls let me knowww

I popped in to Cogito Books in Hexham and saw a copy of @timclare.bsky.social 's Game Changers. First ten pages are great!

'other countries have an immediate obligation to... "prevent & punish the crime of genocide"... If they do not... they could be complicit. "We have not gone so far as to name parties as... being complicit in genocide. But that is the… ongoing work of this commission"' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I stayed up late on Friday making a genestealer for my malstrain-corrupted Van Saar gang. First model in the gang, very excited! Likely going to add more cabling/ tendrils & a more raggedy hood & cloak

All set up with minutes to spare at @tabletopscot.bsky.social

Update to this chart that I share a lot. Not breaking news: Game design teams are still OVERWHELMINGLY all men. About 7% of the top 500 games have a woman or non-binary person credited as a designer. A 🧵of related charts: (1/6) 🎲✂️

Crushed it at Moana Sorry! this morning 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

See how easy it is to do this?

The Lovecraft feature is mine and, personally, I think it's one of the best things I've contributed to the magazine.

heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy can we stop with using "your wife" as short had for "non-gamer" in reviews?? like "so easy even your wife can play it!"

We now have an official Eurydice Games Bluesky account! Please give us a follow if you’re feeling generous :)

About once a year I convince myself I have enough time for a new card game, buy a core set, then sell it a few months later. I think this year it'll be Lord of the Rings LCG

I want folks in the industry to be more open in their opposition to the genocide that the US is currently funding. Really, just a post, or even a donation to something like the Zaynab Project would suffice. thezaynabproject.org

Dry Eurogames implies the existence of Wet Eurogames

JKR is funding life-destroying legislation. When you license HP and put it on your product, the money you pay to do that is literally ruining lives. This isn't ambiguous, it is direct, measurable harm. I will never give a penny to a company who chooses money over the lives of my friends.

Playing Barenpark with 4 and I think my park is about to undergo a hostile takeover

It's #CraftWednesday! Do you have a game-related crafting project in progress? It could be a prototype, print and play, upgrading the components of a favourite game, making an accessory or even something larger like a table or games room. Share a picture and join in! Please RP!

I'm back from Summer holiday and need to start ramping up my job hunt. Any leads would be appreciated. In the interest of actually getting paid I'm looking at document management, library or administration work across a variety of industries.

A genuinely funny bit is how every 10-15 years the Tron fandom convinces Disney to release new Tron stuff despite that fact that the franchise has never once been profitable.

Ok, because there is no better time to relaunch your newsletter, and launch your entire (half built) brand new website, than a Sunday afternoon when you are on a family holiday that’s exactly what we’ve done… Gazetteer subscribers please check your inboxes/junk mail or like everyone else read here

The Ancient Robot Workshop is now open in Edinburgh. A spin off from @ancientrobotgames.bsky.social it is looking to help you get your game made! ancientrobotworkshop.co.uk

Popped in to @ancientrobotgames.bsky.social Beautiful, light space! Equally nice inside, fab selection too. Fully booked, can't wait to pop back. Picked up Quacks of Quedlinburg & Castle Combo 🥳🥳

Massive fan of FFG releasing print & play content for Twilight Imperium 4 in a fun wee booklet. This latest release has fundamentally different setup; neutral factions on the board, exploration via adding tiles as you go, and a combat-based scenario where you get VP for battling. Great experiments!

Today I walked 6 miles crisscrossing Capitol Hill to meet with staff about how tariffs are affecting the boardgame industry. More tomorrow. Please contact your members of Congress, especially Rs. In the Senate, you can ask them to cosponsor S.1593, which would exempt small businesses from tariffs.

they made a game just for me, but I think you might like it too @ithayla.bsky.social

sighs and posts this again
