Here is a list for games that have official tabletop rpg adaptations, and unofficial ones that cite the game as the inspiration. I’m fascinated by adaptations of video games to ttrpgs and video games based on ttrpgs and wanted to see what was out there. The title of each game …

post A short post on why I will not be writing a long post about Ofcom’s Online Safety Act consultation
The late and desperately missed Hilary Mantel’s masterwork, her Wolf Hall trilogy, is 1,888 pages long. I savoured every moment I spent in that world, and grieved each time I was pulled out of it. Her chronicle of the politics of the Tudor court ends, for Thomas Cromwell, as his …

I really enjoyed reading Elizabeth Anderson’s book, β€œPrivate Government”. It’s a lecture she’s given with responses from other people, a philosopher, economist and historians. Having these sorts of people of different analytical lens wasn’t something I fully appreciated until she …

Feeling overwhelmed and like some things are just meaningless, but I got a short little walk in for my stupid mental health. The sun felt good at least.

post from GOV.UK Cookie banner and why it β€œwon't go away”
This is a blog post I’ve been meaning to write for many years. While working at Government Digital Service (GDS) for 6 years as Head of Frontend, I had so many people ask me about the GOV.UK Cookie banner. The main complaint being β€œit would never go away”. I was asked this …

For my daughter, I've been buying second-hand as much as possible. If it can be washed and disinfected, it will be second-hand. She loves noisy books right now, so I've been getting some cheap books from Vinted and charity shops. The other day I found a noisy book in a charity …

post from The Chicken-Egg Problem of Movie Microformats
In the recent IndieWeb event (I think it was the Black Friday Create Day, but I am not 100% sure if it was), there was a discussion about the microformats. We then continued this conversation somehow in the next London Homebrew club.
