A kneejerk answer, but...

The number of people between 16 and 34 who died or were injured in a work-related incident increased by 76% between 1939 and 1946

PTERODACTYL SCREAM How is this show so good? How is a bunch of random celebs playing Mafia / Among Us unironically one of the best things I have watched this year?

Me: <exhausted, trying to sleep> Brain: ...okay but what if Old Man Shran shows up on the SNW Enterprise to one-up Carbon Creek by revealing that first contact was actually with Vikings, and that's why Vulcans, Tellarites, and Andorians are basically Elves, Dwarves, and Frost Giants? 👀

Celebrity Traitors, you guys. Celebrity. Traitors. Celebrity Traitors!!!! (I am obsessed)

Watching a random Enterprise episode for insomnia reasons — it's such a shame we never got to see Ambassador V'Lar again. Her backstory with the Andorians would have been great in the Babel / Coalition arcs, she should have wound up Shran so much (and actively enjoyed doing so)!

They are absolutely nailing the hype building for this show. I was so indifferent when it was announced, now I cannot wait. Every new tease makes me more and more intrigued. 👀

Thank you do the person who invented the public library I love socialism

Every friend in my life right now is because of social media. In fact, I would not have survived the last ~15 years of chronic illness isolation without it. Arguably everything great in my life is because of social media, I would have no life without it.

Happy birthday, Sci-fi Queen Sigourney. And she's far from finished with sci-fi, as she'll be appearing in Avatar: Fire and Ash (Dec. 2025) and The Mandalorian & Grogu (May 2026).

It’s boiling in October because you’re using ChatGPT to write your emails, Janice.

Just curious: how many of my peeps out there are watching Critical Role this campaign? Which pair of boys are we rooting for to kiss first? 👀

:S

Let's be clear: this is the result of deliberate political choices to make accessing trans healthcare substantially impossible. It's what Streeting and his ilk want.

Welcome to your 40s. Where you think things like "ooh, that's a nice container".

Watched Superman again and loved it, raved about it once again on Letterboxd, but there are a couple of (minor) story things that keep bugging me. Ultraman in particular. This isn't The CW, if James Gunn is in charge of it all, why did we get Black Noir from Wish instead of [insert better options]?

One of the best responses to a bigot I have seen.

Something core to Starmer's Labour is the delusion that doing things everyone hates will make them look strong.

I am officially number of minutes you can maintain an active wormhole years old, I guess that's kinda neat.

I watched Pixar's 'Elio' tonight and was pleasantly surprised by this absolutely perfect Star Trek voice cameo…

I don't know how many times this needs to be posted, but clearly it is MANY TIMES. Sigh.

Up and atom / up and at them Usually when I am trying to fight my way past ADHD and ME/CFS to escape the chair I am stuck in.

Finally got around to seeing Fantastic Four. Not perfect, but solidly enjoyable — it's nice seeing the MCU starting to remember to lean into the compelling character dynamics, we've had a pretty good run lately. Stylish as fuck, too, my Thunderbirds loving heart was very happy.

Treatment of disabled panellist shows just how much contempt Labour has for disabled people At Labour's conference, a fringe event failed to provide basic accessibility for a disabled panellist so he could join speakers on stage, writes @rachelcdailey.bsky.social www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Wanted to help this escape Reddit containment: Farscape is popular in prisons (and in my house.)

Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Thunderbirds started 60 years ago today! @gerryanderson.bsky.social A British show that fired my imagination as a child (but 20 years later). A childhood that stays with me thanks to the Thunderbird 2 replica in my office. 😌

Disabled people can’t “just move” to escape fascism. Moving requires resources, money and health that most of us don’t have. Many countries won’t accept disabled people, especially if they have universal healthcare. People are trapped, so we must fight for them.

I still think it’s backwards that every mass shooter owning an AR-15 is considered a right while their victims’ healthcare is considered a privilege.

Share an 80's TV series you love. 📺 My choice:

Keir Starmer says he's known for 10 years that the left has got it wrong on immigration & wasn't listening to peoples concerns Really? Because 5 years ago he said the left wasn't bold enough in talking up the benefits of migration. He really is the most duplicitous politician in my lifetime

Quote the character vs how you draw them! #Vax #VoxMachina #Criticalrole #Fanart

I’m not It isn’t. It should be, but you’re working very hard to ensure it isn’t.

No, it's great Keir. They love it. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

"Catastrophic" potential as 'Brit Card' Digital IDs could out Trans+ people, campaigners warn 👇 https://www.wearequeeraf.com/catastrophic-potential-as-brit-card-digital-ids-could-out-trans-people-campaigners-warn

🚨 NEW: Starmer’s desperate rush for digital IDs is a recipe for repression ID cards won’t reduce migration and will put trans rights at risk. But that’s not the biggest cost of Starmer’s half-baked scheme... https://goodlaw.social/sa9h

The most accurate recreation of DS9 I've seen.

this would fix me (dead)

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Look what we have here then.

Started watching Shrinking on Monday. I have now run out of Shrinking. I have also run out of tears. Good show. 😭
