Dear young people, the word is "cringeworthy". That is all. #oldmanyellsatcloud

I love puzzles, and I LOVE point 'n' click games... ...but I HATE labyrinth puzzles #gamer #oldschool #leisuresuitlarry

Little tip for you guys; when you're spraying deodorant in a changing room, put your shirt on first and spray underneath it. That'll keep you from gassing the rest of us like it's the scene in a James Bond movie where the villain showcases his latest superweapon. #considerate #manners

So, they're still using a 3-prong plug in the 41st millennium... #warhammer40k #British #tabletopgaming

Not a bad bit of painting, if I do say so myself #gamer #warhammer #nerd #Scottish

The quality of storytelling in action video games is vastly superior to that of action movies. And has been for about ten years. #gamer #movies #writer #whycantwehavenicethings

Apparently I have sold 30 copies of my book. Just in case you are one of the people who bought a copy, thank you very very much. It means a great deal to me. (Also, at the risk of being ungrateful, could you go on to the Amazon page and leave a little review, it would really really help me xxx)

Paint is for suckers. Most of this was done with a Sharpie #warhammer40k #tabletopgame #terrain

When one of your players is leaving the country, you need to Vamp it up a little for the leaving party... #vampirethemasquerade #Storyteller #Scottish #TTRPG #sadtimes

Guardians of the Galaxy is a Care Bears movie. I will be taking no questions.

Time to raise a little hell... #VampiretheMasquerade #TTRPG #EdinburghAfterDark #Gamer

Another rejection, but at least they had the grace to send it out after 5 o'clock #writer #writerlife ##scottish #MccullochWines

If you are looking for some very classy erotica to wile away the cold nights then I can highly recommend this. I may be ever so slightly biased, but I think it's the best smut money can buy #spicy #fantasy #writer #scottish #smut #sexpositive

Well, that's me sold another copy of my book. Since this has sold the best out of all the things I've written, I guess that makes it a bestseller... #writer #writerlife #depressed

Has anyone else noticed just how many of the people with podcasts who style themselves as Life Coaches (or Motivational Speakers or Self-Help Gurus) have what can best be described as resting-difficult-poo-face?

What do you think it says about the video games industry, specifically the people who work in it, that every other indie game is about someone battling depression?

Now with added blood... ...for the blood God!

I printed some tiny little propaganda posters to add to my terrain #fortheemperor #wargaming #thegreatergood

I think we can all agree it would be absolutely hilarious if, at Trump's next press conference, a reporter asked him to point to Greenland on a map.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but that moustache doesn't suit you

I swear to Christ, if you wanted to stage a Terminator-style robot takeover of the world, all you would need to do is put googly eyes or a cute little bow on your death machines and 50% of the world would take the robot's side.

97kg after Christmas. Let's see what improvements I can make going forward this year

I made the Ankh-Morpork City Watch in Hero Forge #discworld #GNUTerryPratchett #Heroforge #nerd

I've seen a lot of people online using the term "unalive" as a verb and I think that can just fuck off.

Gamer opinion: I should not have to choose between Fidelity and Framerate when I play games on console. Game developers should optimise their games to run the best way possible on that platform. Stop using super high graphics settings in a trailer, when the actual game runs janky as hell #gamer

Happy Hogswatch

Does anyone else think that the first John Wick movie (and parts of the others) is in a lot of regards a very nearly perfect Vampire the Masquerade movie? #Vampire #WorldofDarkness #TTRPG #Gamerlife #EdinburghAfterDark

Can you believe my girlfriend is not willing to read the 20,000 word backstory I wrote for my Rogue Trader TTRPG character? I mean, I honestly thought I'd found The One... #TTRPG #Warhammer40k #Writer #Iloveherreally
