There’s a study doing the rounds at the moment that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about, so I wrote about it.
Women well past the supposed “gamer age” are streaming, building communities, and thriving:

Yesterday, Google chose to remove Doki Doki Literature Club from the Google Play Store. Their explanation is that the game’s content violates their Terms of Service in its depiction of sensitive themes. DDLC is widely celebrated for portraying mental health in a way that meaningfully connects deeply with players around the world, helping them feel heard, understood, and less alone on their journey. Managing to achieve that—making a truly meaningful difference by using the power of fiction to connect to others—is what I’m most grateful for. It inspires me every day to keep making cool new things, things that can really reach others, especially those in need of connection. DDLC is available on many different major platforms, including iOS, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and more. We’re continuing to do everything we can to find a path forward for getting DDLC reinstated on the Google Play Store. Meanwhile, we’re also looking into potential options for alternate methods of distribution on Android devices. We worked hard to bring DDLC to Android, and we’ve gotten to see so much love and enthusiasm from passionate Android users over these past few months. Thank you so much to the community for continuing to express your love and support for DDLC through the years. We’ll keep you updated on the future of DDLC for Android. - Dan Salvato and the Serenity Forge Team
A statement regarding the removal of DDLC from the Google Play Store:
Thank you for this, and I also agree with RSPB’s advice. I’ve taken away all feeders recently due to this issue, so it’s good to see some guidance on what is safe. I’ll stick to feeding in cold months.
Oooh another great podcast to listen to! Thank you! 🫶 Looking forward to the episode 💜
This is so refreshing! 🫶

Hi! I have those hobbies too but my favourite is pretending to make coffee.
What’s the last screen shot you took from a game? Lemme see it. Post it here. (This is from Lost Nova ✨)

The two of us are in tears. Our game is out today! 🥹🥹
Seeing how well the second one was received pushed me to play the first one. I’m really enjoying it so will definitely play the follow up!
I can’t wait! It’s so beautiful and I’m in love with the story! I’ll be posting a full review (love letter) on the blog next week 💜💜
I’ve been playing Planet of Lana this week! It’s been great!
There’s so many new games out all the time it’s starting to feel like I’ll never get around to them all!
But Fishbowl looks to be something special - a narrative game about dreams, grief, and hope.
I played the demo but made myself put it down so I could experience the full game this weekend!
