I wrote an article about #BloodOnTheClocktower as a strategy game.

This was a while ago, but you can still see it as the latest article on the BOTC website at the moment.

A so-called gender critical activist has been caught on camera quoting Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf in a speech against trans rights at an anti-trans rally in Newcastle . https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/01/16/newcastle-let-women-speak-rally-adolt-hitler-trans-speech/

I am starting a board game club at my local climbing gym, The Ordinary Climbers (https://www.theordinaryclimbers.com/), here at the sunny South Coast of England.

The founders, Matt and Ed, want people of all ages get confidence in themselves. The gym works with a number of behavioural schools for example.

The board game club will help strengthen the community. I will donate some of my games. I wonder if you can to do the same. I could pay for postage. Please DM if you can help this great cause.

If you have ever played Wingspan, would you mind filling out a short survey about Wingspan & birding for me? I'm interested in responses from both birders and non-birders. Feel free to share. Thanks! https://forms.gle/PTWu7bboJh8ok98n8

How to have a "beach body":

1) You're already 70% water, which is a good start

2) Replace the other 30% with sand

Boardgame folks: can anyone recommend excellent articles / books / videos where people talk about issues with & experiences of sexism / racism / other related issues of marginalisation when playing tabletop games or roleplaying games? All advice welcome.

Oh my god, I still can't fathom how stupid NFTs are

I can't help but laugh sooo hard at people who are proud of their NFT's lol. You're barking up the wrong digital tree

Seriously people, please don't fall for it and don't buy some stupid image you can get for FREE

The internet should be about sharing and not hoarding. If you can copy a car you would right..

Stop hoarding stupid images with a price. SHARE, SHARE, SHARE!

I figured it was time for the https://clocktower.social instance to have a proper #mascot, so behold, here they are! I'd sure love to play in a #BloodOnTheClocktower game with them as Storyteller...

Any suggestions for a name?
