Xennial nerd. Loves dogs and gaming. Tries to avoid internet drama. Stationery magpie. Archer. Tory despiser. Sweary. I am marooned in a future I have no wish to participate in. These messages will self-destruct in a couple of months. Or whenever.

Get to know your mutuals. Ten things I am into: Archery (barebow & occasionally flirting with trad). Collecting hobbies I never get very far with. Dogs. Gardening. Physics and astronomy. Putting things into alphabetical order. RPGs. Science fiction & fantasy. Stationery and fountain pens. Writing.

I read "And it is now mine" in Emperor Palpatine's voice when he tells Luke the deflector shield will be quite operational when his friends arrive.

I get where you are coming from. Almost feels a bit pointless having an account if you shut it off from the public, but I personally think Twitter is too far gone now, and will just get worse as time goes on.

Don’t have a specific but will reach for a David Gemmell, Alastair Reynolds, or Terry Pratchett book. Also, any audiobook narrated by Emma Newman.

If it is still an option, you could set your account to private. That would stop the bots following you.

Perhaps if techbro cockends had designed AI to do this sort of thing rather than steal art and tell people to jump off bridges, there wouldn’t have been such a backlash.

Hey, #TTRPG publishers: Would it kill you to name your PDFs something that makes some sort of taxonomical sense?

Paizo, I'm looking at you in particular, but others are just as guilty.

If I see one more game book with a serial number as a filename...

I haven’t read a 40k novel in quite a long time and I fancied one so I picked up Deathworlder by Victoria Hayward. I really enjoyed it, and it reinforced two of my long held beliefs that A) Imperial Guard > Space Marines, and B) Tyranids are the awesome.

I stopped playing 5E around 2018/19 and I had already gone through two PHBs. Substandard book bindings *really* fuck me off.

I rarely go for any Kickstarters nowadays. I find the vagaries of international shipping just not worth it. But by hook or by crook I shall finish collecting these Harn hardbacks.

In a few short weeks, it will be August again. This will come as no surprise to those who keep track of time. August is the month we roleplayers use to share positive posts about our hobby across our preferred social media platforms.

How?

This bright infographic is your guide!

2/2 -Kaweco used to have some nib quality control issues (that may have changed). The metal body Sport is brilliant, but more expensive. -TWSBIs have a reputation (perhaps unfairly) for being fragile. Never been a problem for me, but something to consider.

1/2 Kaweco Sport, Lamy Al-Star, or TWSBI Eco would be my suggestions, with the Al-Star being my personal preference. They're all great daily writers with the following caveats: -Al-Star has a triangular grip which some people dislike. Plus it's kinda odd looking.

Absolutely. And where are all the soundbites? How am I supposed to understand anything when all their speeches and press releases were longer than three words?

It smacked of "if I can't find an expert in their field, I'll find someone who has interest or experience in that area, and if I can't find that, I'll find someone who is at least competent." Rather than "Oh. Well, Grant Shapps'll do it."

And suitable appointments into relevant cabinet roles. Something I had forgotten could even be done after a decade of random revolving door ministers.

It probably took her a good 15 minutes to work out how to open the door. Or maybe she got lost in some random one exit green room.

So with 4 Green MPs, the same as Reform that means they'll get the same level of coverage, right? Right?
