Hello! I’m doing a thing - well, two things - to raise money for @SpecialEffect. Please watch this, then use the link below to donate whatever you can to an amazing cause and charity. Thank you ❤️🏃🎮 justgiving.com/page/chris-gro…

@_DanielJCole @_Zeets We must find the location of this establishment

This restaurant is playing Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard. Real culture. I might shed tears over this rice bowl.

To anyone who sees this. My brother Dan has been missing for 6 months. We are going to be pushing his name and face hard again, particularly in Cornwall where he disappeared - please share and help us, words cannot express our despair Photo is us at @the_levellers in Plymouth

Here for all of my incredible colleagues across Sumo following today’s news. Please reach out if you need a shoulder to lean on, or an ear to just listen. This is awful. It’s okay to feel however you feel. Let’s support each other through the next few weeks. ❤️

community managers consistently handle so much negativity online with grace, protecting dev teams that often underpay and discredit their work too now they’re facing targeted abuse step up for them the way they step up for you and your hard work every day. its rough out there x

Refuse to give hateful people the validation and attention they crave. Just figuring out how to best support friends and peers. If you need/want to talk/vent, will keep an eye on DMs. Stay safe out here.

Briefly logging in to share the amazing mental health toolkit from @SafeInOurWorld, for Community Managers in the games industry. It’s been a rough couple of days for our discipline. Take a breath. Chat with folks you love. Be proud of what you do. ❤️ safeinourworld.org/news/community…

Hello! This June I'm running the Leamington Half Marathon, raising money for The Myton Hospices. TMH provides free services to people with life-limited illnesses, and their families. If you can spare a couple quid, please donate below. Thank you ♥ justgiving.com/fundraising/ch…

To another year of walking in your footsteps 🦉

@allthefawkes Sumo team trip when she’s up and running 🫡

I LOVE HER ALREADY

Ran my 100th @parkrunUK this morning! Grateful for Parkrun’s organisers and volunteers, not just for giving me a platform to improve my fitness, but creating a supportive, inclusive, positive event, when those things are in short supply right now. Here’s to another 100 🏃

@francescasoph You’ve been incredible dude. Can’t wait to see what brilliant stuff you do next 💛

@SumoDigitalLtd @StampedeRacing @SumoLeamington

Let the festivities begin! 🎄 We asked our people what their 12 favourite games were for #Sumo12GamesOfChristmas - let's see what titles they recommend! 👇 ❄ @OtpChris recommends a bunch of racing games; as expected of the Senior Community Manager of @StampedeRacing 🏎

Too many folks in this industry who are desperate to have influence and authority, yet are totally unwilling to address the responsibilities that come with it. 🤷

@FernandoM76 Emo’s boom in the 90s is often seen as a reaction to grunge, in the same way grunge was a reaction to metal pop Basically the same concept as grunge (rejecting societal norms, creative anger) but with more introspection and sensitivity

@FernandoM76 IMO, yeah you could say that, in terms of their emergence and popularity Grunge rise: Mid 1980s, Seattle, Green River, Melvins, Soundgarden Emo rise: Mid 1990s, mid-west, Sunny Day Real Estate, Jimmy Eat World, Jawbreaker
