2026 takes another brilliant, creative soul. 😔 Rest in Peace, Tim Curry.

Posting a photo of Sam Neill as Merlin not just because it is one of my favourite movies (and has contributed a lot of the inspiration behind Legend of the Hidden Folk), but because in light of his passing, the world has lost some of its magic. 😢 Vale, Sam Neill.

Domino's campaigning to be the worst when their pizza already tastes like shit. 😂

Domino's bashing GOW: Laufey was not on my 2026 bingo card, yet here we are. Honestly, I'm surprised that Domino's is still a thing. I'd love to see a better pizza company (wouldn't be hard to find to find) back GOW: Laufey and quote tweet this. 😈

I'm at Armageddon Expo in New Zealand, and will be on a panel later this afternoon where we discuss creating RPGs! If you're out and about, come by Chaosium booth and say hi, otherwise see you at 3:30pm! 🤩

I'm halfway through Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr & Carolyn Bessette. The glazing is unreal. 😂 Yes, I know it's not a biopic. It's fiction. But my God, the writers are working overtime trying to make this dynamic aspirational.

The way America relies on Black activists to protect them from their own decisions should be studied. Not by me though.

Conquest application - check. ALT: GAMES application - check. Any other conventions I should check out for 2026? I'd love to create some game zines and attend some zine festivals...

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

I'm still so excited to have my first book in my hands. I gotta think about what I'm putting on the sketch cover. I can't wait for the rest of the shipment to arrive!

"Oh boy, I really need to clean out this pantry" I say, as I throw another box and several recyclable shopping bags on the shelf. #adhd

Awww yeah! I've paid my editor (The amazing @daydreamcomix.com ) and paid the first half of my artist partner's rates (The Inimitable @jennyodioart.bsky.social !) and that means The N.E.T.W.O.R.K. Man: Genesis is officially in production!

Source of Dreams by Sekayi Edwards is a divinatory storytelling TTRPG that blends introspection with reflective practice. Players journey across an allegorical hex map, using narrative prompts rooted in psychology and personal growth to explore the path toward a meaningful life goal.

Promotional graphic for Source of Dreams, a tabletop RPG by Sekayi Edwards of Hidden Quest Therapy. The background is parchment-textured with a red and navy border. At the top, the title appears in bold navy text, with the creator’s name and studio beneath it.

Two images are featured side by side:

On the left: a top-down photo of a tabletop playtest session. The table is covered with laminated cards, colored hex tiles forming a map, a clipboard with paper and pencil, dice, and reference sheets. The materials are neatly arranged, suggesting a structured and collaborative game environment.

On the right: a color photo of Sekayi Edwards smiling warmly, standing in front of a white background with a leafy plant behind him. He has a shaved head, a full beard, and wears a dark shirt with a pendant.

Runecycle by @hiskih.fi blends OSR minimalism with modern narrative design, casting the player as the wielder of a Rune. This fragment of creation can defy fate -- use it to explore Monumnents in search of a way to break the cycle in this fast, melancholic journey inspired by GRIS and Neva.

Promotional graphic for Runecycle, a tabletop RPG by Hiski Huovila. The background is parchment-textured with red and navy borders. The game title appears at the top in bold navy text, with the creator’s name beneath it.

Two images are shown side by side:

On the left: the Runecycle cover art. A surreal, minimalist landscape features tall, stone-like monoliths set in a desert beneath a pale sun or moon. Concentric runic circles overlay the structure, with the title RUNECYCLE centered across them. A tiny figure stands in the foreground, emphasizing the scale and mystery of the setting.

On the right: a close-up photo of Hiski Huovila wearing a khaki hat labeled “Designer.” Colorful sticky notes are taped to the top, with one reading “GAME,” forming a playful DIY crown. Only the person’s eyes and the top of their face are visible.

Why we fight by @laurieblake.bsky.social is a game about resistance, memory, and radical hope. You play partisans fighting fascism—not with brute force alone, but through solidarity, sacrifice, and care. Advance not by violence, but by building bonds strong enough to carry a revolution.

Promotional graphic for Why We Fight, a tabletop RPG by Laurie Blake of Stop, Drop and Roll Games. The background features a parchment texture with bold navy and red framing. The title appears at the top in all-caps navy text, with the creator’s name and studio listed below.

Two images are featured side by side:

On the left: the cover art for Why We Fight. It shows a determined woman with braided hair drawing a bow against a backdrop of city skyline and helicopters. Her stance is focused and fierce, evoking resistance and survival. The title is rendered in a distressed white font.

On the right: a photo of three smiling individuals standing in front of a booth for “Pugs in Mugs.” One has bright blue hair, one has long red hair, and one is bald with a goatee. All three wear lanyards and appear to be at a convention, radiating joy and camaraderie.
