Hey folks I haven't been much active in the last months and I wanted to share a couple of words about it TLDR is life has not been super kind, that's why I've withdrawn a bit from online spaces, I'm super late with work, still working on the big projects, rather slowly, like a background process 1/n

Ansible Uplink is a bi-weekly podcast where I invite a different indie ttrpg creator on to review a sci-fi adventure module. As mentioned on the show (but never on bsky), if folks have questions about sci-fi roleplaying or adventure design, you can drop them here for the show, :)

I want to be a better steward for the Human Made icon. If you have any ideas on how I can get the word out for it more please let me know. Do you think game retailers would be interested in stickers they could pass out? folks interested in pins? What can I do to support you using this icon? a zine?

Looks like folks are interested in this. My goal is to facilitate the use of md + css for layout. I’m starting to wonder if I should wrap this o side a standalone desktop app. Would you fancy this?

On bluesky I see little comments about what's happening in Iran, including "collateral damage", or Lebanon, and 1/2 million people forcibly displaced from Beirut It's just same old Whereas on the fediverse it's a bit different What does it mean? Is bluesky less diverse internationally than mastodon?

1/3 I had little time to do layout today. I'm not sure why, but I obsessed over minute details of unordered lists When I do layout, I oscillate between working on details and on structure. Switching from one aspect to the other is particularly easy when working with CSS #css #markdown #webtoprint
Zine page screenshot, the "bulleted point list" looks sort of like a terminal print out
