These make me laugh 100% of the time

The falling angel meets the rising ape is one of those phrases that rattles around my head without warning periodically. And obviously this whole passage is incredible.

Attack of Opportunity is the nerd version of the Offside Rule. #ttrpg

Jumanji (1995) is not technically a Jumanji. Jumanji (1995) investigates the aftermath of a Jumanji thirty years previously and is technically a Hellraiser

I do nude modelling. By which I mean, I do not pose naked, but I project what, statistically, would happen if I did

Kittens!

We put the kittens on cushions on our laps in an attempt to complete our board game and let them stay asleep. They rewarded us with the cutest beans.

It's so hard not to post a million pictures of the boys.

Did I mention how small they are. My incredible wife smartly took some pics with a classic 'banana for scale'.

Very excited to announce the addition of two new members to the Monroe family. Meet Edgar (white) and Sabin (orange). Please note they are extremely small.

I like how you can use emojis to zoom in on a pig 🐖 🐷 🐽

I don't consider myself much of a gamer. I definitely have a couple of types I love when it comes to games. These are my most played games on steam. Can anyone tell me why one of them is the odd one out?

Your brain works fine when you're under 25 (no matter how 'inconvenient' this fact may be) theneuroscienceofeve... The myth that 'if you're under 25, you're not mature enough to decide anything' refuses to die. But it absolutely should #Brains #Development #Maturity

Can't currently purchase gems from the @mtgarena.com store. Submitted a support ticket and waited 3 days for a response that is clearly written by an LLM. It advised me to use a different browser or clear my cache/cookies. Which since I'm using Arena and not a browser was pretty unhelpful.

The even more unbelievable crime fact (which I learned relatively recently) is that burglary has fallen by more than 90% since the 1990s. Did anyone notice? Nope. Does anyone believe it? Nope. But is is true? It is!

I don't like that I am 'hurt my back by doing the washing up' years old.

This is like my biggest nerd complaint in recent iterations of franchises I love. It was the thing I disliked most about the SW sequel trilogy, and it annoys me in SNW (which is otherwise great). Disco at least technobabbled around it.

AI (and, true story, trained pigeons) can spot tumours 99% as effectively as humans. But you don't get humans who can spot that 1% without them spending a lot of time finding the other 99%.

Y'all, I really enjoy the Maradaine books. The world is rich and we all know I love a wide cast of well-developed characters. You should check out the entire thread, but you should also know Satrine is my favorite.

No word of a lie, this is one of the greatest threads I’ve read anywhere.

Haven't managed a cinema trip in a while, so treating myself to a double bill today. Fantastic 4 and then Superman back-to-back. It's no Barbenheimer, but I'm excited nonetheless.

Have joined a new Pathfinder game recently. I cannot resist the allure of a Halfling with draconic heritage. There's just something about the combination that is catnip to me. Making this one very different though.

I don't play Dead by Daylight, but I sometimes watch @probablyautumn.bsky.social play. I really think they should add Mr Blobby as a killer. Mr Blobby is at least as terrifying as any of the horror movie characters currently in the game.

My other contributions to non-canon #RustyQuillGaming I made back during the final season, long before the show finished. Firstly a fic I wrote archiveofourown.org/works/22499563 and a playlist I made open.spotify.com/playlist/79y... which I ended up adding a few songs to just recently.

Ten years ago the first episode of a podcast called #RustyQuillGaming aired. I cannot quite express what the show meant to me, the ways it changed my life and the relationships it brought me (one in particular). I love it and I miss it and I will always be grateful for it (despite my regrets).

Ten years ago Rusty Quill Gaming released its first ever episode! And ten years on we still love it! In celebration, a very talented bunch of people came together to offer a tribute for a show we still hold close to our hearts. Please enjoy @rustyquill.com

I can't help but feel this is somehow Guy's fault.

STELLAR FIRMA LIVE SHOW DATE CONFIRMED AS FRIDAY 7TH NOVEMBER 2025 TICKET LINK COMING SOON!

Had to say goodbye to our cat this afternoon. Utterly heartbroken. He was the sweetest most precious little man. He was only mine for a little over two years but I loved him so much and I will remember him forever.

Saw Thunderbolts. Really felt like a good classic MCU movie. The blend of humour, action and heart that I love about the MCU. Another one where I would have happily spent longer with those characters. But nice to have met them all before too and know where they're coming from.

Been reading the Maradaine saga recently and loving it. Think it has entered my personal pantheon of books/series I'm low key obsessed with. Not caught up yet but I am charging through it as fast as I am able.

every day with my wife and my cat is the greatest day of my life

Recently started this series and I'm loving it so far. Churned through the first book in each of the four threads and happily ploughing on.

Got on a very new bus and it has like wood laminate flooring. Extremely disconcerting tbh. This is not floor for a vehicle it is floor for a building!

It physically hurts how accurate this is

Finally got back to For All Mankind, but started from the beginning again so I could watch it with @probablyautumn.bsky.social - we just finished season 1. I love this show and it really activates the space nerd in me. But damn if it isn't stressful sometimes.

How does the algorithm work here? Why are so many people liking my last skeet that don't follow me? Did I use some sort of forbidden keyword?

Cat selfie! I got home yesterday evening after my weekly football game and he yelled at me until I picked him up. I carried him around while I did some simple kitchen chores and he purred so hard the whole time. I love him so much.

I once worked on a visual novel game where all the surveys and focus groups said that nobody wanted romance, they only wanted mystery and sci-fi. Then 75+% of clicks in-game went to stories with explicit romantic or sexy themes. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Saw the new Captain America movie, it may not be a masterpiece but I really liked it. Carl Lumbly was magnificent imo. I thought every character was interesting in their own way. Would not have objected to spending a bit longer with them.

Absolutely fascinating deep dive on the new Piccadilly line trains. Can't wait until these actually come into service www.reddit.com/r/LondonUnde...

Oh do have a lovely Saturday morning cry over this

well. #RQGaming turns 10 this june! i’m choosing to celebrate by drawing every player character from the campaign, sidequests and the specials! i will (hypothetically) post a character every day until the 10th of june. i have a spreadsheet and everything! finally, a use for my azu sketchbook!

DS9 writers: We invented Section 31 as a cautionary tale Disco writers: We have written a film about Section 31, from the famous DS9 episode “Don’t Glorify Section 31”

new pokemon just dropped

Overhearing the news - it's all very well for Princess Kate to talk about how important it is for people with cancer diagnoses to take time to adjust and rest and recover – she's got more money than she will ever need, and *staff*. Meanwhile statutory sick pay is £116 a week which doesn't even cover

Do I know any Londoners who fancy joining a five-a-side football game? It's mostly nerdy folks who are not very good at football, though it's not quite beginner level. We play every Monday at 8pm right by Poplar DLR station. Been going almost 16 years but we're struggling for bodies currently.

Related: People I know IRL who know what I do for a living often ask what they need to know about online safety for their about-to-be-teenagers, and there's a lot of answers, but the thing I always emphasize most is: under no circumstances should you ever threaten to take access away from them.

I want to say thank you to everyone who helped make Star Trek: Lower Decks over the past 5 seasons. I've been trying to process my feelings after watching the series finale on Friday, but I'm still sad about it, so instead I'll just say: You made something great and wonderful & I loved it.
