I was gifted this amazing latchhook embellished pillow from a long time supporter and friend. I cannot imagine all of the hours that was required to make something so beautiful. I am at a loss for words. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Scott Miller has been platforming this guy hard over on Twitter recently. No real surprise after his recent public anti-vax statements. This is who you're supporting when you buy Apogee games.

I played my first round and was sort of lost because I could not really tell which team was which -but then I found this setting.

Thank you, @doublefine.com for making this accessible to people with profound colorblindness!

Death by Scrolling is addictively fun... and hard... but mostly fun.

A friend who has been hand-making traditional medieval leather footwear for decades now wrote a book where he puts down his knowledge (for those wanting to learn):

The account in question (www.facebook.com/chuckmartel1983/) now appears to be deleted, or has possibly just had the name changed again.

Note: The Facebook convo started because I saw a random account posting links to TechJesse videos. I reached out to warn them, but then saw the name of the account (orig "JesseWifi"?) and realized it was a sock puppet (forgetting to scrub all the photos of yourself was also a good indicator).

He'd like to characterize what he's doing as some sort of warning against extremism, but in reality -he's just selling the same extremism but to a White audience.

Unsubscribe, Block, and report his activities to the people he's worked with or is trying to work with.

Hate is not welcome here.

He's the same guy who built a tiny following off creating racist Duke 3D mods where you could murder Arabs for fun.

Folks like this will ruin the hobby and destroy opportunities for legitimate people if they are allowed to operate without opposition.

Just a follow up to @dosnostalgic.bsky.social's thread about islamophobia peddling grifter Jesse "TechJesse" Petrilla who's been trying to make a name recently. He has started using a sock puppet account on other social media platforms to try and hide who he is.

I confronted him about it.

My latest book is about more than the making of Age of Empires. It's a story of brothers, camaraderie, innovation, and dreams—the cost of chasing them, the passion that drives them, and the joy when they come true. Available for preorder from @bossfightbooks.com

A new game for the classic Macintosh? Yes please.

Transfer Point is a modern graphical text adventure and is such a cosy experience.

It arrived safely and...it boots fine! 😊
Ty to @ronscompvids.bsky.social for the great service, this thing is sweet!
I need an adapter for my wireless keyboard (hoping a Logitech k400+ will be ok) and then I can start playing about!
Would love to rip my duo230 install onto this in the future 😢👍🏻

What's the worst time to post something gaming history related? A few days before GDC. Well, GDC is over, so I'll try again:

Here's what I learned (as an archivist, for archivists) after listening to 150 episodes of the @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social podcast: trixter.oldskool.org/2026/03/05/save-states-things-you-learn-consuming-150-episodes-of-a-gaming-history-podcast/
