Voting for number 205, because my partner in crime Dr Daniel wrote it. But you could consider number 53 which I appear in as citation number 1. occult-study.com/vote-your-fa...

I've been doing this every year for a while now.

May you perceive the small speck of light that only exists because of the darkness. May your demons slumber like a hibernating Bear, allowing you to rest too. May you see the beauty of all the seasons, including this one. #wintersolstice #yule

I'm suspicious of those who don't aim to haunt a bookshop or a library. If the afterlife isn't the point you tackle the eternal 'to be read' pile I'm not sure we can ever call ourselves friends. If I am not allowed to read as a ghost there will be much trouble. – #DAKilroy #Books

I love weird questions more than anything else on this whole earth.

Oh, the heartbreak of Fexcetorn.

Do I need to like get a proper autism diagnosis to get a bike like this or what

@nature.com, you can just choose not to publish this AI slop instead of offending the Autistic community … what does this even mean with the lady’s legs penetrating a platform? Nothing about it makes sense.

AI has generated a fictional AI model with fictional references that is supposed to be successful at diagnosing autism in children and it has been actually published in an actual Springer Nature journal who's own requirements include not using AI generated images: pubpeer.com/publications...

Arriving at my old undergrad campus Leeds Beckett for an @nlisn.bsky.social meet up today.

Ah RIP Pat Crowther, last of the early Gardinerian mothers, the northern one that carried on witching the longest out of them all.

I also haven't been able to say Augoeides without looking it up first for at least 6 years now and I really annoy myself.

May you enjoy the comforts, without letting them capture you forever. May you enjoy the fruits that the giants planted aeons ago. May you feel comfortable with uncertainty and change, knowing you are following the divine truth. #Haerfest #AutumnEquinox
