I fear, as a nation, we've reached an average weight where train seats are no longer big enough for the majority.

Also, hope you had a fantastic pat leave. Great to have you back!

I'd love to know if companies can't compete on price or speed anymore, since AI lets everyone do everything, do they have to compete on trust? In the past I'd have said innovation but now it just seems too risky.

Nice. I've heard good things about those other 2. I've played the prologue of Alan Wake 2 and then didn't get back to it – a classic trap for me 😂 how are you finding it?

What's everyone's top 3 games of the year so far that they haven't got around to playing? I'm going for: Control Resonant Star Wars Zero Company Marvel's Wolverine (maybe after a couple more patches... 🤭) What (else) have I missed?

Colin from Accounts is a fantastic show and you lot should all check it out.

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Oh good, glad to hear it 🙂 (best of luck with the game by the way, really love the concept and everything you've talked about on PWL so far). And oh god...so very many fires.

Are you OK Mike? I'm noticing more... exasperation? (Obviously you do you)

It shows how out of the loop I am on games media recently when I only just realised Eurogamer brought back review scores... In 2023 🤦🏼 Happy Thursday everyone

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Back from holiday feeling very grateful for my family, especially my wife and daughter, and for all the beautiful moments and experiences we are able to share together. On the other hand, baby made me get up at 5am, so it's going to be a long day 😂 Have a fantastic day gang

As someone British it feels necessary to notify everyone it's raining.

Best of luck to the boys, but I can't help but feel these sorts of headlines aren't helpful.

England's biggest match since 1966 as Three Lions close in on immortality

You're doing awesome bud. Hang in there and take plenty of breaks

I had a gaming nightmare I wanted to share. I got to the end of the bizarre level in 007 Last Light and then it bugged when I was confronted by an NPC so I had to restart from a checkpoint... and it took me all the way back to the beginning of the level 🤦🏼 heartbreaking

Love to see Bleed American up there 👏

Come on Google, "cooling expected over the next 3 days" doesn't qualify as an "insight" 🔥🫠

I went on quite the journey home yesterday: 1 bus, three trains and over 4 hours later I made it home safely, a little hot and bothered but none the worse for wear. If there was any proof needed we aren't ready for the climate change that is definitely real and happening...there it is. Stay cool.

Well, after 5 years of donations I've finally reached 50, about 35 litres – apparently the equivalent to filling up a small car(!) Thank you so much to everyone GiveBloodNHS Reading for helping me throughout this journey, and here's to 100. #GivePlasma #GiveBlood

Happy father's day to all the dads out there. Now, if you don't mind, I'm off to bleed a radiator and write a strongly-worded email to the council about parking.

Successfully completed band practice tonight despite it being about 1000°C. Gig in August so keep an eye out if you're in the South East...

@sevenohthree.bsky.social I have no idea why bsky algorithmed me your post but just wanted to say appreciate the bio. Fun, efficient, informative and a perfect closing line 👏 Happy Friday

They really snuck Good Omens 3 out there with very little fanfare. Understandable I suppose but a shame for those still involved. Incredible cast and team.

Not being funny but are there any tickets providers in the UK NOT owned by Ticketmaster at this point?

Lovely weather for my last day at my current job... New, exciting things coming soon. Stay tuned.

Been a while so I thought I'd say hi. How's it going everyone? Found a legendary bird in Pokopia this morning so already feeling very accomplished 😂🤦🏼 What's everyone else playing? (I'm doing more of these sorts of shares on IG these days, feel free to follow – jamesmparry.)

I forgot about the Justin Timberlake meme yesterday which means... You just lost the game.

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

Excited this morning as I'm doing some training with Hampshire County Council to be ready to start more volunteering with young people in the coming months. Something about giving back in this specific way is so rewarding and so important. Wish me luck.

Another successful blood plasma donation. One more until the big 5-0 😮 Thank you to Maryam, Rob and the Reading GiveBloodNHS team. #GivePlasma

Career announcement time: After just over 5 years I will be leaving Quantexa. A huge thank you to everyone I have worked with and best of luck for the future. More details on what's next to follow.

Gengar and Squirrel 🙂 we have huge ones elsewhere but they wouldn't fit on the desk 🤦🏼

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 13/04/2026

Is it OK to still want to talk about that stuff when I have a job and a kid? In fact I sometimes talk about Pokémon at work because have plushies on my desk...

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 13/04/2026

There's a few pieces left, to get one, tell me your favourite game of all time and why.

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

It does feel like we're being rewarded with a lot of good quality violent TV right now: Invincible, The Boys, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms – the latter I've not yet seen myself. What is it about fictional violence that people seem to resonate with? (Not a criticism BTW)

I'll look into it, the plain black is nice but I expect there's something more fun.

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Excellent! Do they do all sorts of different ones?

James Michael Parry @jamesparry.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Very snazzy! I picked one up last week as a gift for Mrs J as I knew she was desperate to play Pokopia

Happy Easter everyone. I hope you're having a lovely weekend and whatever this holiday means to you, even if that's not much at all, I wish you the best.

Currently feeling a mixture between: "Hey, it's the last day of the working week!" And "Oh, there's only one more day of the working week left..."

Pokopia is delightful. That is all.
