Loved this chat - Jon was an awesome guest! Really enjoying the opportunity to talk about narrative in other mediums (especially games) as it is still an underrated form of storytelling!

Worst half of the season so far. Completely unable to create anything and the defence is all over the place. Attack with Adams & Rrahmani has been very poor. Sohm is anonymous. Not looking good... Honestly, I'd sub 3 off now and leave 1 change for later. #FrosinoneVenezia #VeneziaFC

Reminder to myself not to express football opinions on reddit. I had the temerity to say I didn't think Milan looked that great and you'd think I'd said I killed Milan fans' families. What a bunch of babies 😂 Look forward to seeing Milan conquer all this season now that I have been 'schooled'

Marco Rinaldi @marcorinaldi.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Played well again, and unlucky on both goals. I think if Bella-Kotchap's attempted clearance on their 1st goal actually goes out we get something - it wasn't a game where we were hanging on. The defence is still a bit dodgy, and Adams not quite in form, but hopefully that change soon. #VeneziaFC

Losing at home to Lecce (and Di Francesco) is a bad way to start the season. Dominated, had two goals disallowed and their keeper pulled off some good saves, but it's a blow, no doubt. Think we'll be OK up front, but defence looks questionable. On to the next... Milan away 😬 #VeneziaFC

Supergirl verdict: I quite liked it?? Not perfect by any means, but she's great as Supergirl and the story was decent. Genuinely don't get the hatred (or rather I do, and unfortunately think it doesn't have much to do with the actual film).

Svoboda leaving for Brighton is maybe understandable from his point of view, but only getting £5m for him isn't great. So far we have lost two very good players and no new names we are linked with inspire hope tbh. Still, in Antonelli we trust - let's judge at the end of summer... #VeneziaFC

A promotional graphic for a tabletop roleplaying game titled "HAUNTED FORTUNES Part 2". The background is dark red with faint magical runes. On the left is an illustration of a manic-looking, spiky-haired character in studded leather armor running with a bloody dagger. On the right is a tarot-style card titled "The Lost," depicting a skeletal warrior raising a glowing sword. The bottom half features four illustrated fantasy characters with thick white outlines: a magic-user wielding blue energy, a grey Dragon-like creature with crystal jewellery, a multi-eyed elf-like figure holding a staff, and a red-skinned, horned archer. The bottom corners contain logos for "Pathfinder Adventure Path" and "Played with Nimble: A fast, tactical TTRPG."
