my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

I have recently attempted to buy sustainable, quality, new waterproof coats and boots for myself and the wife online and am now in the hole for hundreds of pounds (money I really can't spare) because outdoor clothes brands can't fit clothes to plus size people
STILL COLD!!!
FEET STILL WET!!!
AARGH!

Nessa’s our smith, and the first person you meet.
Her hammer is old, made of the same materials that our fallen civilisation, the Sophoi, used.
Her anvil is mounted on a root, suggesting there’s more at play here than mundane smithing — a sense that her work is somehow rooted to the earth.

the thing about online queer discourse is unless you dig into things it's hard to tell if someone is speaking from a place of nuance and decades of lived experience or whether you're reading the untested absolutes of the most 15-year-old alive

Anyway, in times of media consolidation, all I can say is look to your DIY creative weirdos; they/we are increasingly gonna be your only source of artisan weird shit, as opposed to pandering slop

I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

It's very obvious that if any other prominent politician had been so racist in school that it's haunted 20+ former classmates ever since, it would be treated like a bigger deal. We should examine how and why "still being very racist four decades later" is acting as Farage's protective shield.

This isn't really limited to Europe. I need anything I can find right now, even if it means sticking around for a while. Get me on your team, and I promise your product will be better for it.
The desperate texts to friends and former colleagues begin in the morning. That's where I am right now.

Someone in the EU please hire me to be the best user researcher and product designer and UX writer you've ever had and sponsor my exit from the US forever please!
I'm equal parts tired of where I am and excited to be somewhere new. Ask to see what I've done in the past! You'll love working with me!

19,000 games being released in a year still does not seem like many for an audience the size we have
Like think of how many books, albums, films are released! 150,000ish books a year in the UK alone
Volume isn't the problem people think it is

It‘s always a treat to talk to @erionmakuo.bsky.social in-depth about her work.
In Mandrake, character design, writing, and illustration are so tightly knotted that it’s impossible to tell where one ends and the next begins.
Tons of gorgeous art in the link!

i literally can't stop them from writing like this all the time
Our boiler broke at the weekend, and our house was FREEZING. But a very nice man called Barry from British Gas came around and fixed it.
Anyway today I got a text asking for feedback on Barry, and possibly I shouldn’t reply to these things while still loopy on painkillers from root-canal.

We can only describe our character designs as preposterously luscious!
Here's a detailed look at how we created the neighbours you'll be meeting in our upcoming game, Mandrake.
