A splendid magazine that also includes, unexpectedly, a review of my Croydon Spaceport solo journaling game (which I never anticipated anyone even trying to play, never mind apply critical thought to)

Maybe it’s not the RNLIs job to review their security protocols but the job of government to protect the amazing volunteers of the RNLI. And they could start by condemning the far-right and actively not pursue policies and rhetoric that legitimate them.

Honestly, I think some journalists in the UK are very aware they can hound people to death and enjoy knowing they have that power.

I recently learnt that Ian Miller (Games Workshop/Warhammer/Fighting Fantasy artist extraordinaire) did a short run of covers for Swamp Thing in the early 90s. I am glad to have learnt this.

We’re rapidly approaching a situation in which it becomes legally hazardous to express any criticism of “gender critical” views. The combination of well-funded lawfare and well-funded media moral panic is extremely dangerous to free speech for everyone, as well as obviously to trans people’s rights.
