So much of this echoes the thoughts I've had about how my son navigates this new media world. I've spent a lot of time explaining to other people that of course he likes watching youtube, it's effectively personalized content in his niche interests - what's not to love?

I'm Wormella

I used to have a lecture about this when I was an games academic, How nostalgia is manufactured through specific lenses, and it isn't necessary reflected in the gaming histories of players - and that shared knowledge couldn't just be counted upon by designers.

It's a Bank Holiday! Take a pleasant day for yourselves, Citizens - that's an order!

I came to a similar conclusion when I reaslied I was always more at home at servant's quarters in stalely homes then the fancy above stairs room.

My son and I spent a happy time this morning building my gift of a lego chrysanthemum

I live in a house where everyone in it apart from me is allergic to cut flowers - I'm a big fan on the lego botanical range, it's nice to have flowers the don't die and I don't have to think about keeping alive.

I'm updating my personal website, it hasn't updated, I can't work out why (support ticket has been sent - I'm sure it will be sorted It's just frustrating and complicated and it probably doesn't need to be)

I can imagine you being organised enough 😄

I was a tiny bit concerned for your wellbeing for a second when I saw a black and white photo and your name - phew! glad it's good news!

I'm taking my son (10) and his friend - he's very excited that it looks like a 'proper movie' - coming off the back of his voice work in The Super Mario Bros film, and having recently discovered Tenacious D he's very excited Jack Black is in it.
He would be thrilled with a Jack Black action figure.

Yep - Team boards, multi team boards, different topics, different access levels depending on the board and the content. They've really helped us visualize planning and design, is it even a feature or a meeting if it doesn't have a Miro board?

The studio I work in very heavily use Miro boards, for pretty much everything, in all departments - they are incredible useful, especially as we're mixed in the studio and remote.

Sometimes they have long usage, built up over months, sometimes they are one and done for a meeting.

Dim problem =D

@kierongillen.bsky.social native Welsh speaker here, @gruffydd-sion.bsky.social's suggestions look great to me if you need a 2nd opinion (and without seeing the original text).

We've gone through a box of these - I would eat another box of them without hesitation

I thought Irish was gong to be super easy because I'm fluent in Welsh (and using duolingo to practice) but I've been super surprised at how different is is (different roots) with the occassional familiar word.

I'm studying Irish on Duolingo (as it's my next holiday destination and I wanted to see how it differed from my native Welsh) I'm enjoying it's delicious bluntness.

I quite like using Mistplay to find game that fill up small blocks of time and any vouchers I make from it I spend on me for little treats.

City building or merge style Mobile games or Duolingo are my go to.

Are you a #jobsearching or aspiring #gamedev with questions about your #narrativedesign #porfolio or best practices for them in general?

If so, join me here on *Thursday 23rd January at 5PM / 17:00* GMT / UTC+0, when I will host an hour-long Q&A session.

Excellent bedtime conversation with the boy 'If Star Wars Characters were birds what kind of birds would they be?' (Extra points if it's a pun like Kylo Wren)
