I am going to be creating a prototype of a new (secret for now) narrative game this year. I need to find two people, both UK-BASED (sorry): a freelance dev and a freelance illustrator. If interested in working with me (and if you have a clearly REAL profile to screen for AI), do DM me.

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

In vast areas of the US, the sentiments expressed in this wonderful letter from a British man about why it's a privilege to pay tax to enable the National Health Service to run would see him probably certified as insane and labelled a "socialist".

I mean.... who among us hasn't rewritten vast swathes of their D&D campaign exclusively to capitalize on a series of weak puns about the TV show Byker Grove?

I'm enjoying bracket.city a lot, as a daily puzzle. But sometimes the american-ness of it is a challenge. I spent so long today trying to think of places with box offices until I realised that the US spells theatre differently to the rest of the English speaking world.

I used to live on a boat. I moved off the boat and moved the boat from it's mooring. But the TV licence people do not understand the concept of "property functionally no longer exists" Their letters keep getting more and more silly. This one has a little red stamp on it

Oh my god, this is fucking huge. It was huge when we developed a daily PrEP pill that could prevent you from catching HIV; this is a successful phase III trial of a PrEP shot that will only need to be given *twice a year*. Still needs a confirmatory Phase III, but holy fuck.
