Putting the Rowan in Rowan, Rook and Decard since 2017. Green Party in Sheffield. They/them.

Spent the weekend at the Green Party’s Path to Parliament event, meeting a lovely bunch of smart, passionate, excited people and getting hopeful (with a brief cameo from @zackpolanski.bsky.social). There’s likely to be more politics on here from me, for a while. It’s time to try and change stuff.
a lot of good things happened today but perhaps most importantly I now own a lilac corduroy baseball cap that says “PDFs”

I think it’s possible one of the smartest things I ever did was to find out what shoes nurses recommend for shift wear and then buy two pairs of them for conventions.

Reading Color Problems, a 1901 treatise on colour theory by Emily Noyes Vanderpool, in which the author organises her pottery collection (among other things) into 10x10 squares of colours. Extremely neurotypical behaviour

I spoke with people role-playing ICE raids in video games to help educate people on their rights and what to do in real-life situations. Tonight, they're holding an event in Fortnite www.wired.com/story/activi...

Tip for Heart GMs: put a horse in there. Not as the first thing they meet. Throw some gristly things with too many legs at them first. Then hit them with a normal horse. The Heart couldn't find a way to make it more fucked up.

finished up at Frankfurt book fair today; there’s something quite lovely about getting production nerds to talk at length about their special interest. The last meeting I had featured ombré neon page edging which apparently can only be done by one woman in the factory wielding two paint guns at once

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

I find myself at the Frankfurt Book Fair, where I have acquired two sample kits so enormous that I suspect I might not be allowed to take them on the train home. But one of them includes gold-flecked cork as a book cover material so if I have to choose between that and clothes, well…

One hundred games is a heck of a lot of games to play, or even to own, but it's a staggering number to write, even if they're only a single page long. Chase chats to Grant Howitt, designer of Honey Heist and many other one page games, about the game jam he's running to celebrate the milestone.

today I collated 391 Hollows objects, checked them all against the revised full rules, resolved internal consistency, fixed all the places where the letter D was incorrectly capitalised, did a full proofing check, and honestly I don’t understand how no one noticed the autism till well into my 30s
