Lots of really big crowdfunding campaigns and preorders launching today. Here's to tossing in my little project! You can find RITE: A Midwinter Sacrament #TTRPG #zine below. You can grab it for $7 and receive it before the bleak midwinter. 7 day campaign. Thanks for sharing.

Jeepers, Lacuna is now in the same catalog as not only Magical Athlete but also No Thanks, my favourite card game?!

Could someone please option Lacuna for a blockbuster movie about pond flowers, I'm so tired of office politics.

If those orphans didn’t want to be crushed they should’ve just opted out of the Orphan Crusher program.

I now have a full mini-album of #ChocoPro chekis and it's probably my most-prized possession

Do you think Naomi Klein looks at Ezra Klein and thinks "Oh no... not again"?

Still from the Wolverine game trailer

Hello? … Anybody? … I think I took a wrong turn somewhere #rapture

“The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: Inviting me, Gavin Newsom, onto right-wing podcasts to attack trans people.”

Who's the dude that keeps complaining to Apple that his iPhone isn't thin enough?

Just realized that Sydney Sweeney and Sabrina Carpenter are two different people

I feel like I'm about a 6/10 at game design and a 1/10 at communicating with publishers to sell those designs.

Finished Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream. Another great video game this year from a small studio, this time an isometric stealth game with the feel of a puzzle game and great characters.

Completely arbitrary milepost but Lacuna passed 10k registered plays on BGG! 🥳 That just feels surreal to me.

This part of the Harry Potter Codenames debacle seems to have mostly flown underneath the radar of the Anglophone boardgame world, probably because the localised version is not (yet) listed on BGG. As far as I can tell IELLO still hasn't commented. ludovox.fr/produire-ven...

I’m doing victory laps in my kitchen right now!!!! 💃🏼 CGE just announced they are going to be giving away 100% of the profit from their Harry Potter game to pro-trans charities!! www.instagram.com/p/DNG48n-IVP...

Devir Games is recalling all copies of its new release Ace of Spades after being called out for using racist and culturally insensitive artwork in the game, describing it as “a serious mistake that we recognize and deeply regret”: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...

Living here, I can attest that Europe isn't locked in some kind of isolated pocket dimension, we have the same internet as everyone else. The grace period for Europeans treating indigenous peoples like they're from a fucking Tolkien book has long expired.

Finished The Midnight Walk. This is easily the most overlooked game of the year so far. Scary, whimsical, sad and beautiful all at once. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBln...

Idea: a trick taking game about the recording of Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours where players can blow up partnerships 🤔

Lol, I actually live in a city with a socialist Muslim mayor. It’s like … a normal city?

Cuomo looks like if Vince McMahon and Jake Tapper had a baby

Only bought two tiny books on the trip so far! 💪😮

A lot seems to be happening while I’m in my little holiday bubble.

Just think about all those governments toppled by The Atlantic columns instead.

Damn, fell in love with Hadestown all over again 🌹😭

The Stranger Things play yesterday had some amazing stage effects and meh story while the Eve Pro Wrestling show was absolutely awesome. Today I finally get to see Hadestown live! And hopefully a dry performance of Shucked in the Open Air theatre in the evening.

The upside of the hotel breakfast being shite, is that I actually got to sleep in today and still enjoy a Full English in a local restaurant.

Slowly starting to realize that my London trip actually starts tomorrow evening already.

It looks like the new Mini Rails edition is available at the UK Game Expo. I haven’t seen the final version yet but it should have a rally neat advanced solitaire version.

5 Years since we lost Hana Kimura. RIP 🌺

Absolutely shameful of my country, Belgium, for cosigning this. You know you're on the wrong side of history when you're trying to curtail human rights because they "limit our ability to make political decisions" www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Gonna see a guy about some monsters on a train...

Hilarious that I’ve only just become aware of the problems with palm oil because tiktok has been bombarding me with pro palm oil astroturf videos.
