passion fruit tea with the Bovril™ balls please. 25% sweetness. yeah. no ice. thank you.

The teaser for that new Harry Potter series raises an intriguing question: can you still support a series if the creator is terrible, and the prequel movie series is terrible, and the sequel play is terrible, and the original movies are terrible, and the source material is terrible, and

when they gonna release the from hardware

im doing good work

absolutely deserved W for one of the most exciting and talented and all round lovely lil' studios out there. so glad that a truly one-of-a-kind game is finding its audience, and is able to grow in cool weird ways!!!

OH YEAH ITS FEBRUARY GAMES. THE GAMES WHAT I PLAYED THAT MONTH

we played 5 hours of deadlock

so called free thinkers when mmmm delicious pancakes mmm

been reading some board game book recently. im an enjoyer and it's expanded my yap capacity re; cardboard. but i think it's really interesting how the majority of table games writing is science paper coded when my personal engagement with games is literature paper coded.

Today I emailed publishers about a concerning practice a board game media creator engaged in. This will likely become public, so I'm providing the details here to give the full context of what I shared. 1) Document: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/o8ovt... 2) Video: youtu.be/fHXGWflPj4c 1/2

chatted with dr snoops about gaia project. just kiddin. u kno its flippin arcs all day

tonight we were the druids . . . the druids Of... E d ora. ... !

I love the laning phase of deadlock. and then the rest of the game happens and it saddens me

I PLAYED SOME GAMES IN JANUARY pretty chill month. a lot of favourites over searching for new stuff. a generous serving of oaths.

frankly i think this is the only acceptable context for magical athlete

The utter lie of "no politics" strikes again! Vasel's weasley response to BGW is as expected as it is pathetic.

Veteran Dice Tower reviewer Sam Healey resigns in wake of saying Alex Pretti, Renee Good were to blame for ICE killing them, after comments began impacting review giant’s annual pledge drive: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...

Sam Healy saying the quiet part loud. Tom Vasel has always been a God-forward board game guy too, but he knows to keep it to himself & not alienate DT normies. And presumably he doesn't have bandwidth or interest to spend loner time on internet rabbit holes that turn his brain into swiss cheese

I'm having the Balatro dreams again

ITS TRAINS !

well I've also posted my Adelaide Writers' Week opinions. It's my home festival and I love it, and I was among the many many writers who withdrew, and I know this whole thing has been such a mess but also, I am hopeful for 2027's event and so surprised by that hope buttondown.com/holly/archiv...

YIKES. Upper Deck (Marvel Legendary) just announced a CCG using the Harry Potter license. Fans of UD are rallying against this decision. Like the CGE situation last year, I’m asking for your help. Join us. Share your disgust and frustration, and help us push UD to retract their awful decision. 🎲✂️

Seismic. I'm amped. An enviably courageous change!

I'm playing Rain World again and you should play Rain World because it's the best video game.

I watched it again and it's still really really really really really good

my housemate has made a smoothie so thick he has to chew it

i have many secret resolutions. if spoken aloud they will shatter small and known. i will fail in a quiet corner, naturally.

I just watched Marty Supreme and thought it was really really really really good

doing a bit of spring cleaning. turns out my partner has been quietly stashing away huge amounts of 'spare wood'. just big planks of assorted tree. what's going on.

christmas treat for Thomas

"The more I play The Old King’s Crown, the more I become enamored with it. Which is saying something, given that I’ve been playing it for something like five years..." I could never have hoped for this when I first started designing the game, & I couldn't be happier. spacebiff.com/2025/12/10/t...

'come on in guys!'
