When you’re in your 20s, you’ll walk by an indie bookshop that you’ve never visited. (Amazon is convenient.) You’ll see their bookseller recs, a cat in the window, & curation & feel the need to go in.
It’s really important that you do, because that indie will be your safe space for years to come.

Man answering his phone on the train: Yes? Correct, I’m not at work (pause) I’m not going to answer that because I am not at work today. No, you’re going to have to ask someone who is. Goodbye.

Fantastic video by Pam Walls on the increasing use of AI in board games, and the need (more than ever) to support artists, illustrators and graphic designers in the industry.

My visiting parent put up shelves in the office, I have now populated them with gaming books that have been sitting in tubs in the garage since we moved, I'm sure they're glad to be in out of the heat.

My 3 year old little Guy *cannot wait* to open his advent calendar tomorrow.
He's been carrying out around the house with him saying "CONSTRUCTION!" in an excited voice and keeps asking if it's time for bed

I just don't need to know what the Telegraph has written about Dungeons & Dragons. It's a newspaper for people who are frightened of samosas.

A current favourite little game. Barbecubes is an adorable and very simple little dexterity game that is pleasing to look at and play.
There is also a vegetarian version that is exactly the same but with different pieces, I always bring both to game night because I like to be inclusive.

A fun, simple, mascot racing game we played last week. Winning revolves around betting on the races rather than the races themselves. I won through two hugely risky bets in the last race.
I can't for the life of me remember the game's title.

Thank you to those of you masking at PAXU. It is a principled, beautiful act of solidarity with each other 💛
& those of you not masking? Know that I see you and think less of you for it. Refusing to take COVID precautions in 2025? At a convention?? Embarrassing
