If even a Conservative MP is forgetting their ID, then there's a problem. Also the list of accepted IDs she gives here are wrong. Only older and disabled people's bus passes will be accepted at polling stations. Young people's bus passes will not.

This questionnaire is still open for a while, if you're able to help us with our research into nostalgia in those who played both WoW vanilla and WoW Classic since. All RTs (or sharing with your guilds, etc.) very much appreciated, thank you!

Writers need a team . . . yes, we write alone, but you still need a support system. We live in our heads. Something considered abnormal by the majority of the world’s population. We need people around us who understand the frustration and exultation of writing. #amwriting

My colleague Cenk and I (at ARU, UK) are researching nostalgia in players of WoW Classic and WoW vanilla (at the time). The questionnaire has all the privacy/ethics/etc. info: angliaruskin.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/wow-nostalgia Responses and signal boosts greatly appreciated, thanks!

at this point i feel the majority of game design trainwrecks can be averted by asking: 1. is there a midway version of this feature we could build to test faster? 2. are we over-solving problems we may not run into? 3. is everyone *actually* excited to build this feature?

I just started watching this and it's as phenomenal as the doc for Double Fine Adventure was. If you're a #gamedev this is mandatory viewing. It's so well produced and so real and accurate to what it's like making games. It's not PR crap like you'd see for Halo or something!…

I hear that when it's your birthday you can ask for art RTs without guilt! Dinged lvl 44 & have ALL the grey hair to prove it.

THREAD. An editorial writer for the Washington Post just wrote an article about how the U.S. needs to add far more than 100,000 more cops, especially to help Black people.

So, eleven-and-a-bit years ago, I wrote the only written narrative in Minecraft: the story that appears after you kill the Ender Dragon. (A narrative which players often call The End Poem.) Today, I officially librated that ending. Er, what does that mean? 🧵

To clarify once again: Restore Trust is NOT part of the National Trust. Restore Trust is the trading name for RT2021Ltd, a private company. This is really important. Please challenge this claim when you see it in their corporate communications. Please RT.

I would take 50% off Wizard Tower Defence for #ItchioCreatorDay, but it's already pwyw so you can take 50% (or more, or less, or even add something) off yourself. somewhatunlikely.itch.io/wizard-tower-d…

EVE: Please with myself for flying a Gila again; lots of effortless missions in a row. Offered a new mission I don't remember well. Look it up in my spreadsheet. Notes column I barely ever use says "NOT GILA" OK, past me, I'll take something else.

This chart was recently published by the DHSC. It is misleading, and I have reported my concern to the Office for Statistics Regulation. A thread, setting out the points in my letter. 🧵
