I was supposed to go to London for work last week but that fell though and now my source of income for this month is now gone as I am currently on a slight furlough until I can get another freelance gig coming my way.

I'm in dire straights and could really use the help.

@walle132.bsky.social is in need of some mutual aid to cover some expenses and survival needs. I’d be here for days trying to encapsulate how beautiful of a person WallE is, but please consider helping if you can. 🖤

Something really cool happened recently! Pantsless Tables, along with a bunch of Indian people in the TTRPG space, was featured in an article by the Hindustan Times, one of the leading newspapers in the country! The article is behind a paywall but you can read it here: archive.ph/202511211039...

I love this jam. You should too! The constraints of 250 characters is magically freeing.
So I run a little thing called the Micro Fiction Games Jam every year where people try an write games on a theme within a 250 character limit just for the fun of it.

This year will be the jams 6th year!

You can see all the games on the website: microfictiongames.neocities.org
