I SWEAR this is just what came up!

A screenshot of a Merriam-Webster pinned post inviting ppl to screenshot a GIF, and saying whichever word you land on is your word of 2026. My screenshot shows the word "potato", which is class because I love an aul' potato.

I've known @mytholder.bsky.social a long time, and I challenge anyone to find a pic where he looks as contented and at home as he does in this cozy cottage garden. (if you're wondering about the image, it's from Gareth's upcoming cozy halfling murder mystery TTPRG: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/p...

A photo of author Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan in his grandad cardigan, pottering around an illustration of a small rockery-style garden, in front of a well-stocked shed full of planted pots. He looks contented, and his bio full of books about HORROR and DEATH seems oddly incongruous.

I had a really great #UKGE2026 this year. I could definitely feel the show's size increase on the @pelgranepress.bsky.social booth; as I've said to a few people, it's Gen Con-sized now, which is a fantastic achievement for the @ukge.bsky.social team. 👏👏👏

If you'd like a break from the world and all its nonsense today, I found this 5-10 minute essay to be the reading equivalent of some deep breaths of pure mountain air. Beautiful. 💓 thehtml.review/05/tell-umma...

I do think of you often these days as I tap the sign on my office notice board...

A photo of a corner of my office notice-board, featuring a collection of badges. The post refers to a large navy one Amelia gave me, which reads "OH COME THE FUCK ON".

My traditional Warpcon Saturday afternoon game with @gregorhutton.bsky.social and @donogh.bsky.social (and this year's guest star @angelonikolaou.bsky.social) is The Big Store. We've got a great team so far - Billy Two Brains, Woody the Bolt, and Vivienne LeClair.

Choking to death with a post-Dragonmeet lurgy, and trying rapidly to teach myself what the new GPSR regulations coming in next week will mean for my small business. The glamorous life of #TTRPG professionals! 😒
