Did you see #winterwatch last night? Belfast's starling murmuration took centre stage to the delight of audiences across the UK and those watching at Belfast itself. But did you know we nearly lost it..?

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

engagement this, unsustainable that. what about the pursuit of having the same weirdos show up to everything you post like this??

Pipe | is beside backspace on this Danish keyboard. There are two other pipes on it also, but neither of them work. Also there's no Print Screen key, which is freaking me out a little.

god fucking damnit

who the fuck WANTS their posts to go viral, have you ever had that actually happen? it's like getting a winning pull on a slot machine if wasps started pouring out the bottom instead of quarters

TIL you can have mead with pizza. I felt it was a valuable lesson. (tomorrow's Angie may yet disagree) I also tried FOUR new places near me! Four! Yay for friends who take you out of the house 🙌

LOTR was a different experience in the cinema than when it first came out. Really glad I went. Was very interesting to experience the memes on the big screen, and be reminded of lots of happy memories of playing The Two Towers game 😎

Every film should do this. Almost everyone left for more popcorn and stuff, too.

In other news, yer man's cat tree is epic

I swear, 70% of the accounts are either empty or have three posts dated from 2024. And they still post on twitter 😓 Not blaming anyone, but it sucks that if people say that Bluesky is dead but you don't move here and motivate others to move, of freacking course nobody is coming there.

I am going to see the extended LOTR #1 in the cinema today, but apart from that I may never leave the house again. My things are here! It's cosy now. Why would I leave??? 😁

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

Look if they can pluck out random side characters from a major movie franchise and make an entire epic TV series with them, I don't think it's too much to as for a whole season of Taika Waititi as Tom Bombadil

I'm tired now. I have furniture so I think my brain has finally given up on the new job/new country adrenaline and said 'I can haz rest now?'

Also sorry not sorry but don't say you have "Christian values" if you support policies that exclude people in desperate need I refer you, again, to the story of the sheep and the goats in the gospel of Matthew, a theme which comes up repeatedly in the texts. It's a fundamental doctrine not an option
