A podcaster is saying "There's this beautiful quote from Dan Savage that I think about all the time. He said "During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, we protested in the afternoon, and we danced all night, and it as the dance that kept us in the fight, because it was the dance we were fighting for."

The podcaster continues "I think a lot of us are missing the dance right now. A lot of us are stuck in the grief, both because we don't have a society that really makes space for grief, and because the dance really can't exist online. Be we need the dance."

The podcaster continues- "It's not wrong to give yourself a break. It's not wrong to reset your brain. It's not wrong to find joy. It's imperative." It is part of the work to heal the world."

Love to Glasgow tonight ❀️ please dig out some decent ffp2 masks if you're going to be in the centre for the next week (if you're not already masking). That amount of smoke will be causing breathing problems in healthy people, as well as babies, older people and those with respiratory conditions.

Genuinely devastated seeing the fire at Glasgow Central station tonight. Fucking hell.

And for it to not be national news that everyone looks at is absolutely fucking wild. Wait till it impacts tomorrow's trains out of Euston I guess.

I am also shocked by the lack of coverage of this fire. It’s so far only affecting the Union Street buildings, but one of those has partially collapsed, from what I can tell backwards into the station. And it’s not yet contained. This is major and more than halfway down BBC’s homepage.

A mockup of the Blades '69 book where the 69 has been crossed out and replaced with 69 in bright purple. 
Below that, the bio for April Kit Walsh which reads: April Kit Walsh writes games about feelings, vulnerability, and caring for one another, including Thirsty Sword Lesbians and End of the Line. She used to be a swordfighting ballerina, but claims those days are behind her; she has absolutely no idea who that masked heroine with the sword and the tutu might be. When not writing RPGs, April is a civil liberties attorney working to protect the rights of criminal defendants, activists, journalists, and everyone else impacted by the technologies of control or empowerment.
Next to the bio, the description for the $420k stretch goal:
Blades '69: The Sexual Revolution
The 1960s were a time when the counterculture challenged establishment norms around sex, love, family, and a person's right to choose what happens to their own body. How does this conflict manifest in Doskvol? How does the Consensus exercise control through these dimensions of human experience, and what struggles and delightful deviancies does your group want to explore? Blades '69 is a combination of a worldbuilding exercise and safety tool to help you bring themes of both real-world and fantastical sexual liberation to your game.

Photo of 3 sawtooth star quilt blocks in cream, pinks and oranges

Start of a new quilting project - I have 7 colourways, each with 3 variations, and making 3 blocks of each variation. Adding sashing as well to make a full king size 100 inch quilt with double layered batting, no idea where I'll lay it out to make the sandwich or how I'll fit it through my machine πŸ˜‚

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

Starting a game of Daggerheart was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

A good game yes, but the friendships that have developed are second to none. Best people.

It's been a year since we released "Our Last Summer", our multi-award nominated Kids on Bikes series

It's one of those things that will stick with us forever, and we couldn't recommend it more highly.

A proper triumph in table chemistry, it will make you cry.
