I'll be speaking on Thursday at @wlovegames.bsky.social Games about my recently published study on communities and safety in the Finnish game industry. This is an opportunity to hear about the results of my studies live, without reading (boring) academic articles ☺️ lnkd.in/p/dWgVhVME

Happy to join the book publication party hosted by Tanja Sihvonen at @univaasa.bsky.social, celebrating this cool new book by Ask, Guajardo, Sihvonen and Tompkins! The book questions who gets to be a fan (fangirl) and what fangirling tells us about "cringe" pleasure and the fangirl gaze.

Haven't taught a full uni course for a while, so super stoked to get to start my "Men and masculinities in game culture" course next week! So much interesting stuff for our wonderful students to read and talk about. #gamestudies
