HE'S LITERALLY READING A SALES PITCH

Starlinks for Ukraine are paid for by the Polish Digitization Ministry at the cost of about $50 million per year. The ethics of threatening the victim of aggression apart, if SpaceX proves to be an unreliable provider we will be forced to look for other suppliers.

I just released the Museum of All Things version 1.0!!! You can find it at mayeclair.itch.io/museum-of-al...

A friend and I have been on a Battle Brothers binge, it's such a good game. The legends mod just elevates it though, it's really great.

2nd Palkia pack and I get this... holy shit.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

Attention Cartography Nerds, this resource is massive of historical Adobe ABR (photoshop) brushes which are all CC for use!! Amazing! Also some Illustrator assets as well. I just grabbed it all! kmalexander.com/free-stuff/f...

I had a new player test my #ttrpg project earlier in the week, the beautiful bastard exploited some mechanics I didn't realise were broken but gave some really encouraging feedback, all part of the process I suppose 😅

Updated my #CCLA library! That means art that's free to use in publications! www.stregawolf.art/ccla-library

TTRPG fam, do you know about www.oldbookillustrations.com? Now you do. I've used it extensively for my personal projects. Public domain, free, searchable, and high-quality downloads.

Ahead of receiving an honorary doctorate from Leiden University, I'll be giving a Feb 6th lecture on my new work on information disorder, and how we can deal with it. www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/events/20...

🥁 Announcing the Public Domain Image Archive! 🥁 We are v excited to share our new sister-project, the Public Domain Image Archive (PDIA), a curated collection of 10k+ out-of-copyright historical images, all free to explore and reuse: pdimagearchive.org @pdimagearchive

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia. Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

Walked the dog and found a guy parked up in the industrial estate practicing the saxophone with his sheet music balancing on the wing mirror. It was 0°C outside. Dude fucking rocks...

So I'm playing a halfling unchained rogue in a pathfinder 1e campaign that's been running for over a year now and is always a blast. Main focus is on social manipulation to get into places, but sneaking is always an option. I once managed to diplo our way out of an encounter with an aboleth...

There are those times that you feel as though you're finally an actual adult and not just a kid pretending, looking forward to christmas for the break from work instead of the food, drink and presents is definitely one of those times...

It's Christmas time folks, which means bad movies and food stuck in my teeth for the entire video. New video out now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPGI...

Happy Winter Solstice! These photos were taken with a pinhole camera I made from a beer can and left out from Summer to Winter Solstice - a 6 month exposure. Bottom line = Winter Solstice. Top line = Summer Solstice. The lines are the Sun moving across the sky w/some reflections. No line = clouds

Useful for many of the indie TTRPG creators that are out here!

My friends asked me to make a ttrpg that you can play while you play pool. You can also have it. superdillin.itch.io/billiards

IT'S CALLED THE BOOTS THEORY OF ECONOMICS AND IT WAS MADE UP BY THIS GUY CALLED SAM VIMES WHO THOUGHT THE REASON POOR PEOPLE STAY POOR IS BECAUSE THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY THINGS THAT LAST A LONG TIME SO THEY HAVE TO BUY CHEAP THINGS THAT WEAR OUT FASTER MEANING THEY PAY MORE OVER THE SAME PERIOD FOR

I can already think of several projects I would have used this in, and a couple I may well try to implement it in that are currently being developed. They look great!

I'm sure I'm bastardising this story, but before I was born my grandparents went on holiday with my parents to Cyprus and found a local white wine that they really enjoyed.

New from 404 Media: got hundreds of internal Secret Service emails where it said tracking peoples' location without a warrant was okay because citizens have clicked 'accept' on app terms of service. This is the data that powers tools like Locate X www.404media.co/fyi-a-warran...

Took Ted for a walk and stopped by the lake and we saw a cormorant! #birds

You can quit scrolling and put Balatro on your phone.

Bye forever, Twitter.

It's 18:30, 3 days into November, it's been dark for a couple hours, and the ice-cream van is driving around the neighborhood with their jingle going. Ambitious.

BREAKING NEWS - Israel has carried out a ground raid in Syria and seized an individual

It seems like forever ago because I was just 23 when I wrote it, but I am still really proud of this story about how Terry Pratchett got involved in the Oblivion modding scene - and why said scene became so important to him in his later years www.eurogamer.net/the-story-be...

I did the big brave/stupid and took the two boys for a walk together by myself. Mercifully there wasn't a squirrel or a cat.
