- Reposted by Andy RobertsonSir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

- Whose gaming taste do you match with? More than a little excited to announce @patrickklepek.bsky.social as a new game connoisseur on Ludocene. Simply add his card to your deck to get game suggestions leaning in his equistit platforming tastes: ludocene.com/expert-162/P... Who's next?
- Another fab suggestion from @patrickklepek.bsky.social. We were missing Klonoa from Ludocene. Added! www.ludocene.com/game-5952/Kl...

- Love the look of this. www.ludocene.com/game-5946/Sc...
- My happy place.
- Is your work play? I think this from Peter Gray is interesting. If you would still do it without pay, approval and prospects then he says it is play rather than work. Is this the dream?
- I was this years old when I found a review that made me want to play Hollow Knight. Amazing work from @andygeers.bsky.social kids once again. Forget the game awards, this is the award show that matters to families. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQTE...

- I’m writing an article about most joyful (not widely known outside gamers) aspects of digital play. 3DS Street Pass is a big one, but what else should I include? What moments of play have you found joy in over the years?
- Seen Lego’s new smart bricks? My novel, What Was Hidden, asks what would have happened if they had launched at Toy Fair 2012, with some far reaching consequences. Funny how life follows fiction so often. Here’s the book: amzn.to/451PT5c
- Got a mo? If you are in the US could you confirm you are seeing dollar prices in the costs section of this page. Thank you! www.familygamingdatabase.com/en-gb/game/S...
- Surprised to find, as someone who loves crisps, that biggest contributor to salt is bread. Almost 0.5g per granary slice. Yikes!
- Hey hey blueskyers. Would love suggestions of places to eat and things to see in Lisbon. Going there for my wife’s birthday. Whats the lowdown? Shares welcome.
- Celebrate 2025 with me: ✅Published first fiction book, What Was Hidden. ✅Delivered Family Gaming Zones at PAX, ComicCon & EGX. ✅Ran Kickstarter to deliver Ludocene. ✅Got PB in 100 miler ultra (26 hours). Only possible with fab family & friends. Let's celebrate what you got done, big or small. 🥂
