text from anxiety: what if you’re not good enough

text from depression: everyone hates you

PoD is not the solution you think it is to avoiding steep shipping costs for backers. When you ship anything anywhere you're putting your book into god's hands. This includes domestic mail. With PoD you're also ensuring that you can't control the quality of the finished book as well.

Hello! We do this at @shop.peregrinecoast.press - also a few thoughts. 1. Ultimately, this requires indies to become ✨business people✨. Margins shrink every stage of the process so you have to print offset, deliberately productise and price, and god things would be easier if everyone was VAT reg’d

Every so often you get a really cool mid-action shot from a match. Or as I like to say: “boop!” #hema
Two HEMA fencers, one in blue, one in black, are engaged in a grapple. The one in blue is holding the sword of the one in with one hand and stabbing him in the shoulder with his sword in the other.

We are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are One equal temper of heroic hearts Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield I don't want Moscow Rules to be Bond but if it's a bit Skyfall that's okay.

Always good to remember that your average coffee shop has more employees than the vast majority of TTRPG companies. Its an industry of tiny 3-10 person teams supplemented by a vast pool of freelancers.

love that even in Skyfall Bond is still a Commander in the Royal Navy Reserves. With the refreshed timeline it makes you wonder what a younger Bond was doing before being poached by SIS/00 Section,

Each session features a new cast of chaotic, problem-riddled characters. Streamlined character creation quickly creates new, varied, and quirky characters that you’ll love to hate. Characters begin as a mess and a failure, but they can only get better... right? www.kickstarter.com/projects/mol...

A comprehensive mic drop from Brigadier Tom Faulkes (ret’d) on the discourse around how to make tea - if you’re not making it in the Arctic, gtfo
A letter from The Times newspaper

Tea on the march
Sir, Purists may debate the best way of making tea (letters, Jul 23 & 24) but in the army needs must. In the Arctic, where snow had first to be melted in mess tins, we boiled the water to heat tins of food, then used it for washing and shaving, and only after all that could we add a tea bag, condensed milk and sugar to produce a nourishing brew. At -25C I never heard anyone complain.
Brigadier Tom Foulkes
(ret’d) Fleet, Hants
