You told me you got a raspberry pie and I show up and it's little fucking computer?

So proud of my dad for always making the weirdest thing 😘

i have posted before that i think you are an artist before you ever make a painting or song or book. i understand it is a unique perspective and that is okay, but i am thinking on it again after seeing post from buckaroo @scalzi.com specifically how it relates to my perspective on grief and death

I'm at the IEN Summit this week :) Tuesday I'm running a workshop on Making Your First Jubensha at 14:00 Wednesday I'm displaying three of our immersive experiences from our past, present, and future as a company! Come say hi, especially if you wanna grab a copy of All Falls Down: Sorroborough!

Not a novel opinion, but Silent Hill f is proper good.

Finished - and it really was perfect all the way through. (Lucky to have my own Gilbert to share it with 😘 @realbengilbert.bsky.social)

Me attempting to still be a playwright by joining a writing retreat, only to leave promptly after the lunch break because I started spiralling about wHeThER mY wORk mAtTerS.

Soothing my soul by remaking my website in vanilla HTML/CSS/JavaScript. 😌

I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.

I'm not able to take part in #RetroChallenge this year, but I've just spent a few minutes enjoying last year's writeup of my #Sharp #MZ80K emulator for the #RaspberryPiPico . The plan for winter is to have a bash at #MZ700 emulation - faster clock & colour too! z80.timholyoake.uk/retrochallen...

🎭✨ The world premiere of Ada — written by Emily Holyoake & performed by @chronicinsanity.bsky.social at #PyConUK2025 — is on YouTube! 👉 buff.ly/PzPqzBv Emily also shared her reflections on writing Ada in our blog 👉 buff.ly/U6Ej0NQ 💜 Huge thanks to Emily & the Chronic Insanity team for their work!

The Anne Shirley anime is perfect, no notes.

Nothing like the smug feeling you get watching an outrageously atrocious series of #LoveIsBlind where everyone's getting shredded in the edit, god that show has absolutely nailed offering comfort/catharsis by comparison.

Chris Goode's voice dominated the theatre blogging culture of the 2010s. @alicesaville.bsky.social reflects on how the abusive theatremaker used his writings to hide in plain sight Alice points to the need for greater transparency in the theatre industry. In that spirit, this post is free to read

Find yourself a man who secretly also sets his alarm for 5am because he knows 'you'll want to talk about it' so he should 'listen to it swiftly' 🥹

Showgirl is a Goldmember album; I will not be elaborating further.

It's honestly magic to have found a second career where this is both true and rewarding/rewarded. Opening a million tabs to discover why some code works/doesn't feels as fun (to me, anyway) as falling down a research hole for a play.

The office cold has claimed me and for some reason this one is doing weird shit to my ADHD. Been a while since I've had that hyperactive, phased-out feeling of not being in the driver's seat of your own brain while your body bumps from room to room, doing half of everything. 🫠

📝✨ New blog post alert: Post-conference report! 📝✨ Our brilliant Conference Director @rebkwok.bsky.social has put together a report for #PyConUK2025, including reflections on key highlights, behind-the-scenes moments, and the community who made it what it was. 💜🐍 Dive in here: buff.ly/CR22Xm0

We're at @pyconuk.org today presenting a rehearsed reading of Ada by @emilyvhs.bsky.social :) ADA is an intricate re-telling of the life and legacy of Ada Lovelace, pioneer of computing, paralleling her history with a contemporary story about the potential of artificial intelligence.

Come join us at 6.30pm to round off the day with some theatre! 🎭 @chronicinsanity.bsky.social are staging a rehearsed reading of my play Ada - the first time the whole script has ever been performed for an audience... 2025.pyconuk.org/2025/09/stag...

Billions dumped into this. Billions wasted. Meanwhile the cost of living crisis makes people's lives a living hell. This stuff makes me so mad.

When you definitely know what’s going on

Weirdest bit of adjusting back to full time office work is trying to tell my system it's okay, I'm not going to work today, it's Saturday, I'm not late 🫠

We are doing a call out for Nottingham or East Midlands based performers and stage managers to take part in an experimental performance of A Doll’s House, set in the world of The Sims, that we're developing in Nottingham this December. Find out more: www.chronicinsanity.co.uk/post/perform...

Really thrilled to be bringing Ada to #PyConUK2025 with @chronicinsanity.bsky.social 🎉 Wrote a little blog reflecting on developing the script in the 2010s, and how different the play feels in 2025.

Super excited to be presenting a read through of Ada by @emilyvhs.bsky.social at @pyconuk.org this year!!!

This is a first for us! We are incredibly happy to announce All Falls Down: Sorroborough, our latest play-at-home experience based on our critically acclaimed immersive show of the same name :)

Started a new job this week (my first proper web dev role!) and feel really grateful to have @realbengilbert.bsky.social backing me up while I get used to full time office work after 5 years wfh. Top tier house-husbanding.

There is no greater opening scene to a film than this one.

It’s tempting to treat digital infrastructure as purely technical, to be handled by specialists. But it’s deeply strategic, writes Substrakt’s Katie Moffat.

an appropriate response to your product killing a child after months of psychological manipulation and torture is to take the product off the market before it kills again and the fact that this isn’t universally accepted right now is incredibly frightening

The reminder I needed today that empathy is something you not only have to learn, but practise and act upon.

Really fun day getting some words on the page with Urban Writers' Retreat - highly recommend their online intensives for carving out writing time ❤️ urbanwritersretreat.co.uk/online-inten...

Sleep schedule so fucked I might as well have jet lag 🫠

Pedro Pascal might be in everything right now but we can confirm that he is not currently in The Museum of English Rural Life

I am one of the 14 authors who chose to leave the Polari Prize, and I find myself frustrated and saddened at the way this entire story has been represented. 1/

All you need to know about transphobes/terfs/gender critical people is that they think trans people have an unfair advantage in chess.

Never forgive men for treating programming as a meaningless thing your secretary did while women were inventing and developing the field, then, once they realized it was going to be important, shoving women out of it and claiming only Male Logic Brains could perform it.

I welcome the government’s move to recognise Palestinian statehood, but it must be unconditional and immediate. In Gaza, Israel is killing one person every 12 minutes, and famine is continuing to mount. We need sanctions, an arms embargo, and recognition now.

Recognition of the state of Palestine should not be used as a bargaining chip. It should have happened months ago. We also need far greater action to stop the humanitarian disaster in Gaza, including fully ceasing arms sales and implementing sanctions against the Israeli cabinet.

Rewatching Kaos and, whilst I still assume there's a big asterisk around in what capacity she's gonna be playing the role, Billie Piper really could go hard as the Doctor.

We’re going up to @edfringe.bsky.social this year and currently have nothing booked! Which amazing shows, other than Sluts With Consoles by @dogmouththeatre.bsky.social should we make sure to check out? Love a bit of new writing, performance art, and immersive or gig theatre too. Recommend away!
