You know me so well.

Hey there!

I'm writing an article about C-PTSD and puzzles. I would love to speak to creators who have C-PTSD and how puzzles (video-games, TTRPG, or physical ones) helped YOU navigate it. 🧡

Please DM or email me at tess@goodtrouble.team to get in touch!

So sorry. My heart hurts for you. :(

Finally, two of my favorite accounts have reached an inevitable intersection. Most amazing novelist @tkingfisher.com and Little Cow in a Cape @beyondmeatofficial.bsky.social REALLY need to know each other. :)

In times of strife, it's good to remember that you're not alone.
There are many moss goblins, twig witches, and other shadowy creatures of the forest out here shambling along as best we can.
Take comfort in that.

I have never run to my Switch as fast as I did just now. :D

The only regret will be that I waited so long to get rid of all the hard pants!

My friends, I say this with all the love in my heart: Right now might not be the moment for “But we should be TOLERANT and NUANCED about the plagiarism machines!”

Your tolerance and “nuance” will be weaponised by the grifters and their apologists. Please respect yourselves more.

I feel, perhaps predictably, strongly about this. If you also do, this post shows a way to steer your borrowing with Libby to books with a real person doing the audiobook reading.

I have had this movie pretty much memorized for... oh, forty years! 😂 One of my all-time favorites. Time for a rewatch. <3

A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls.

Hey guys, it's great that the author is giving us, not just an alternative to Amazon, but a unionized alternative. And lots of you like that. But since there is no algorithm here, liking her post doesn't really help very much, but reposting it does.

I’m a novelist who’s just bought a video games company. Here’s why you should care about games writing | The Observer

just incredibly thrilled to announce that after months and months of uncertainty over the future of the game, and several I have bought Zombies, Run!, the game I co-created and have been making for the past 12 years:

WTAF 😭😭😭

Wonderful game! Everyone should buy it! 💕📚

This is gorgeous, and as an added bonus, is extremely @tkingfisher.com coded!

Learning in school is not enough. You must continue to teach yourself throughout your life. Study history, read myths, memorize poems, get acquainted with the greatest philosophers & writers. In an age when tech is cooking many brains, we need an army of autodidacts.

Remember, you are not alone.
Your community is out there.
Find them in quiet bookstores & noisy cafes.
Find them shambling in mossy forests.
Find them haunting crumbling castles on the coast, under the dim light of stars.

dismantling the centre till it cannot hold: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!

when the blood-dimmed tide is loosed: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

Witch library and also explosion at the YARN store! One can never have too many books. Or too much yarn.

another reminder to Canadians and our friends in the USA that most of our easily accessible "news" sources are corporate entities that probably answer either to the guy who owns The National Enquirer or Rupert Murdoch

Please take the time to seek out independent journalists who haven't given up

This is so beautiful. <3

It’s so gentle and beautiful. Even though I spend a lot of time grumbling about flawed recommendation refusals. I’m an English prof, dammit! 😂

@tinybookshopgame.com is helping me hang onto what is left of my sanity and I am so grateful to the dev team for this lovely little surprise! 🩷

Oh come on, who could resist such a cheesy pun. :P

Happened to me once when I was coming home from Amsterdam. What ELSE was I going to have in my bag?! 😂 A Gouda time was had by all.

This is absolutely my retirement plan.
