Whilst my son is listening to an instrumental version of Welcome To The Black Parade, I'm reminded of this:

This is a really great list of games that designers should play!

If I had my own list I would've added VVVVVV, Angry Birds, Teardown, Hades, and Geometry Wars, what games that influence you are missing from the list? ๐Ÿ‘€

Will it be 10 minutes will it be 55, spin the wheel of tiny human and find out ๐Ÿ˜‚ (going through the same atm!)

Just beat VVVVVV for the umpteenth time, but this time on Steam Deck ๐Ÿ‘€ still works flawlessly and I still recommend it today ๐Ÿ’ช

Also completed it in just over an hour and just under 300 deaths ๐Ÿคฉ got an achievement n all ๐Ÿ˜‚

So the real networking is ... the friends we made along the way? ๐Ÿ˜‚

In all seriousness, it really is just "go to places where other people will be and chat to them without an agenda". That's still difficult to do for a lot of people, but it's a lot easier than going in with a business angle ๐Ÿค˜

This update includes information you may find upsetting. Please take care when reading.
From today, it is with a heavy heart that we announce trans girls will no longer be able to join Girlguiding. This is a decision we would have preferred not to make, and we know that this may be upsetting for members of our community. 
There will be no immediate changes for current young members, but more information will be shared soon. Most adult roles - including unit helpers, district helpers and administrative support - are already open to all, so we are confident that no volunteers will have to leave the organisation. 
Girlguiding believes strongly in inclusion, and we will continue to support young people and adults in marginalised groups. Over the next few months, we will explore opportunities to champion this value and actively support young people who need us. 
We stand in solidarity with trans girls and women.

i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry

girl guides uk have been forced very much against their will to exclude trans girls. full statement is here: www.girlguiding.org.uk/information-...
