I, too, cannot wait to discuss how this totally real person can help with the success of my [Book Title].

If you think it’s funny when AI puts through a McDonald’s order for 700 milkshakes, just wait until you see what it does with stuff like pensions, disability benefits, DBS checks and so on.

Trust me, I don't need any additional photos for that.

Waiting for Godot: The Hunt for Godot is the recently announced newest installment of the Godotverse. The long awaited sidequel follows Godot's adventures during the events of the original play.

I was reminded earlier today of an old model I painted on commission for #Mordheim back in the day. I actually painted a whole bunch of official GW models as a side hustle when I first started working for GW. Check out this slice of nostalgia! (Photos nabbed from the internet). (Part 1)

Has anybody collected all the different issues Tony Blair has claimed ID cards would solve over the past 25 years

had the urge to do this since the moment i saw this post! #pixelart

Obligatory Alien: Earth thoughts. I think if it'd been an original SF series, I'd have liked it more. It had some great moments and Big Ideas, but it ain't Alien. YMMV.

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 🧵)

At this time of year, this song lives rent free in my head. Anybody else love the Groovie Goolies as a kid? youtu.be/sTpvhXDEP94?...

Just went for what we hoped was #bdog's final round of chemo. He was very brave. His blood test was great, no signs of cancer. But we're not done. He now has another 6 months of maintenance doses to come. Don't have full details yet, but we're gutted.

What video game do you consider perfect?

Mrs L has a cold, and I'm starring to feel like I might be coming down with it. Responding by making spicy ragu for dinner. *Extra* spicy. The chilli gods will rapture this cold away.

Well, if it’s 23 September... YES, THAT’S RIGHT! It’s the 71st anniversary of the hunt for the Gorbals Vampire, in which hundreds of children aged from four to 14, armed with dogs, knives and sharpened sticks went looking for an urban myth

Woken by the sound of people rapturing over the house, honking loudly to each other as they flew away in a V formation. May have been geese am not an expert

Come read pages 1-5 of my new Scifi webcomic Terran Omega. The Ghosts Of War - free to read - but your support (from $1) will get you behind the scenes work and the comic in full colour as I get it done! RTs appreciated!

I have been promised a rapture every few years of my adult life. And each and every time the day passes and we’re still stuck with these assholes.

As a keen amateur Baker, I can't tell you how annoyed I get when they put doughnuts on Bake Off in Bread Week. THEY'RE NOT EVEN BAKED, HOLLYWOOD!

Good afternoon! This week's theme is Printmakers of London ------ 'London Snow' (from 'Cambridge Book of Poetry for Children', 1932) by Gwen Raverat

Almost forgot #MiniatureMonday. A few of you may recall that I was assembling some GW Grave Guard, and that they were the ABSOLUTE WORST! Anyway, I powered through and painted them. These will be used as 6x Wights for #WarhammerQuest.

Kenny Who? Writers John Wagner & Alan Grant and artist Cam Kennedy saw the potential dangers of AI art back in the mid-80s. Dredd stories were always prescient but this one hits hard today. See also America. 2000AD PROG 477. Published 5th July, 1986.

this is a no loss gamble

I'm extending my horror movie watchathon to the entirety of Spooky Season, officially starting today! (First day of autumn, chill in the air, frost on the rooftops). 🧵 starts here. Watched this month so far: The Satanic Rites of Dracula 🦇 🦇 Night of the Demons (1988) 🦇🦇 Witchboard (1986) 🦇

What movie do you consider "perfect"?

#bdog misunderstanding the deal about only lying on the blankets provided. #dogspreading

Here's one from The Alamo supplement for Legends of the Old West by good ole @markalatham.bsky.social. It's er the Alamo.

Apropos of nothing: ‘Rise, like lions after slumber In unvanquishable number! Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you: Ye are many—they are few!’ - Percy Bysshe Shelley ‘The Masque of Anarchy’ 1819.

And this is Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence, which, in my opinion, is easily the greatest Scottish poem ever written about Batman...

Here are my favourite murder mystery fantasy book recs: The Tainted Cup by @robertjbennett.bsky.social The Raven Scholar by Antonia Hodgson The Scour by @richardswanauthor.bsky.social (out in October) Death on the Caldera by @emmypax.bsky.social The Last Vigilant by @markalatham.bsky.social

Reminds me of myfavourite Twitch clip from that time youtube.com/shorts/RorvQ...

I shamelessly resurrected a joke I once made on Xitter that almost went viral, and it risks doing numbers here, too. I apologise for nothing.

Japan has a wrestling camp for kids where at the end they have a show match in front of their parents to show off what they learned. Thought you'd enjoy this.

Can't believe it's been three years since this banger.

Saw this on Discord. Too good not to share!

Expanded the pub quiz team tonight, and came joint first! Clearly having a team of two is playing on hard mode.

I preferred it when he just fought daleks

I'm watching the Satanic Rites of Dracula. There's the obligatory scene where they list Dracula's weaknesses, and it'd probably be quicker to list things that *don't* kill him.

That is literally just a normal picture of Michael Sheen.

RIP, Robert Redford.

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1650

Last shout for tonight, a regular amount of posting tomorrow. Thanks for your patience while I plugged my comic which is freeeeeeeee!

Feeling slightly misty-eyed as I'm reminded that 10 years ago today, #bdog was fitted for his first harness. LOOK AT THOSE KNOBBLY KNEES!

Got fired from my job for saying that Samantha on Bewitched didn’t really wiggle her nose, she was just kind of twitching her mouth back and forth.

This is Finny. He doesn’t go chasing waterfalls. He carefully studies their timing and arrives in advance. 14/10 very impressive (TT: jordancain70)
