As many who follow me know, I am a regular contributor to a popular U.S. #boardgame channel, Our Family Plays Games (OFPG). Not only is OFPG is the best #boardgame review channel in the business...

Movies with Black, Indigenous, Women and Men of Colour in the lead make more money. #RepresentationMatters #DiversitySells

This is a comment from a research participant that I think about a lot. This is a five-alarm-fire for #boardgame spaces, and the wider industry. We all need a 'third place' in addition to work and our homes where we can be our authentic selves. We need #boardgame spaces to be that third place.

I've been trying a litte experiment with #YouTube shorts. This is a quote that means a lot to me, particularly in the context of #boardgames #RepresentationMatters

Popular entertainment products like movies and television show lose money when 'authentically inclusive representation' isn't present in the story. This analyses demonstrate that films lose 100s of millions in their opening weekends without #representation

Business leaders know that the more diverse your team is, the better your products and services, and the more revenue you generate. #DiversitySells #RepresentationMatters

A thread on why diversity is good business. This is a lesson for #boardgame publishers. #tabletopgames

@BeardedRogue I am right there with you. I hate everything about Twitter now. I'm blocking every promoted tweet and advertiser. There are some folks I am connected to who are using it for #mutualaid and I want to ensure I am still connected to them until they migrate. I don't want to lose them. But there's no other good reason to be there.

@quietmarc I can honestly say as a human who had read 1000s of books, you are an excellent writer. No question at all. Your mom is right, it is very good. Trust me, I am a doctor... and this is the first time I invoked that, just for you.

2023-02-20

@quietmarc Marc! I hope you are great (because you deserve great). How is your fantastic book coming along?

@gamesbymanuel It is such a sinking ship, and getting worse and worse by the day. I have too many tiny (often non-paying) jobs that require Twitter access. Hopefully the world will slowly wander off eventually as things get more and more untenable on there.

2023-02-20

I'm still on Twitter (unfortunately) because I need it for a small contract job and to stay involved with some #mutualaid support I have been doing. I wish I could leave it though, it is a dumpster fire. I'll be posting more of my research here in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.

Hey! I'm in this. I had a lovely conversation with World of Welstar (Mike Tresca), the Committee for the Advancement of Role-Playing Games (CAR-PGa) last week to talk about how #RepresentationMatters in #TTRPGs and #boardgames

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Did you know that more Canadians have died of COVID than died in World War II?

(πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Also, did you know that more of our American neighbours have died of COVID than dies in combat in every war they've fought since 1775?)

The number of confirmed COVID-related deaths in Canada in the past 3 years has exceeded the number of Canadian combat deaths in 6 years of World War II. As of Jan. 25, 2023, there have been 50,344 confirmed COVID deaths. In WWII, the total number of deaths was 44,090.
