Sacha... be normal whilst giving a lecture.
Challenge level: Impossible!
Thanks so much @seedtalks and @theblueskitchen Brixton for having me last week x
Tomorrow I'm going to be at @conwayhall in London with @mahinthemachine talking about videogames and queerness!
From playing Princess Peach in Mario Kart to being cussed out online by random teenagers from Tennessee... we've got a lot of stuff to nerd out about!

Gaming has always been gay, bisexual and transgender, and queer identities have become increasingly prevalent in our virtual worlds. Yet, with homophobia, transphobia, violence and repression on the rise, many queer gamers and creators are challenging the role representation can play in confronting these increasing hostilities today.
Join LGBTQ+ historian Sacha Coward and journalist Mahin Kesore in conversation about all things gay and gaming in our current landscape - from celebrating stories of queer characters and games, to uncovering the role gaming has had in our understanding of queer identity. 🌈

On a looooong eurotrip drive between Dutch themeparks... and car sickness be damned, this book is incredible!!!
@jasebyjason has written one of the most compelling, and humane oral history collections I have ever encountered. It feels less like be lectured by a historian and more like being IN the living room with the people he chatted with. I am deeply envious of his skill.
Bloody brilliant, I can't wait to meet him at @hayfestival this year and learn more!
