  • I did well in my 20s with hookups but also I was a touring musician, comedian and actor who lived in major cities, a rakish waif and, at least at the time, I was kinda cute if I do say so myself.

    Married for 8 years now and although I am confident I have a lot to bring to a relationship should something unthinkable happen to my marriage but I am under no illusion that I would not do nearly as well in my mid 40s with a stable regular job, 20 extra lbs and an inch less hairline.




  • we didn’t really learn about it in high school. from memory we did the Tudors, the Stewarts, the Romans, Boudica, the Egyptians, Great Fire of London, Norman invasion, the black Plague, WW1, WW2, Iron Age, Bronze Age, Renaissance, The Enlightenment.

    edit: plus the Raj

    and we do some on the slave trade and America is mentioned but not the main character and civil rights/suffrage which does mention more American stuff (Rosa parks, MLK)




  • I’m a ways off from that I think. About 11 months in (mostly the odd day at weekends) and I have a working card system and the AI can play a card that beats you if it can but it’s very simplistic and all the art is either drawn in paint, a text or untextured placeholder, or royalty free avatars I downloaded from itchio

    I’ll plug it in a few game-making communities when I have a demo It’s (very early) working title is “Cartoquaria” (as in a place where one stores cards, in Latin) and it uses a deck of tarot cards you imbue with mystical powers - but I’m easily a year or two out.
