Hei peeps. I've been quiet. I've had a fever but more to the point I just haven't felt like posting anything. I'm just really exhausted from seeing bad things happening to good people all the time plus stupid d!ckhead overlords ripping the planet apart and I'm emotionally exhausted. Just need a mo.

Really sad to hear the founder of Reticulum is taking a back seat on the project. I understand the need to look after one's health & all I have to say is thanks for the time & effort you have taken to build this wonderful protocol. #39c3 #Reticulum #RNS #EncryptedComms unsigned.io/articles/202...

I'm getting Ridge Racer Type 4 vibes listening to this. Anyone fancy a quick blast round Out Of Blue? Awesome slice of Atmospheric Drum n' Bass. #atmosphericdrumnbass #RidgeRacer4 youtu.be/KE6I_jPcRhU?...

Minidisc very well and alive in 2025… #minidisc

Growing incredibly frustrated with Apple’s updates lately. iOS 26.2 is dog water. Glitchy phone, FaceTime Audio doesn’t hand off. My HomePods also only want to know what scene to select whilst reading through the million scenes programmed. I’m not an Apple power user but this tedious. #iOS26 #Apple

Spending my Friday night saluting Chris Rea. Watching an old gig from 1985.

Technically it is Xmas now. So here is a long forgotten Christmas song about a turkey that is rescued from being cooked for Xmas lunch. Merry Xmas. youtu.be/ZM9k5PRF3Oc?...

I'm not much of a big fan of Xmas but as we draw closer I do like to tune in to Pages From Ceefax and listen to the Chrimbo chewns on there. Big up the dude keeping this thing alive... #Ceefax #PagesFromCeefax #Christmas2025 www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8OU...

A whole slew of amazing musicians have passed on today. Ken Downie (The Black Dog), Michael Urbaniak (well two days ago but just heard today) & Chris Rea. Chris passing hit me hard. This remains the only thing I can play on guitar (quite badly mind). #RIPChrisRea www.youtube.com/watch?v=BI_U...

David Lammy is a ghoul… #hungerstrike

If you struggle with juggling between Mastodon and Bluesky (Bridgy didn't work for me) this might be a solution... #socialmedia #RSS #toots lifehacker.com/tech/bluesky...

Another music recommendation. Something I bought recently. This is the most amazing, lush atmospheric drum n' bass tune I have heard in a long time. I feel 22 again... #atmosphericDrumNBass #Drumandbass #OmniMusic www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvJC...

Looks like GitHub has gone down folks. Bummer! #GitHub

Just to show you cassettes are not dead. Got this recent release from Louis Haiman on Stasis Recordings entitled "Actualization". Nice slice of deep, space house. #SpaceHouse #DubTechno #Cassette

I've been looking forwards to buying this all year. Hopefully not too much longer. Daily driver for me. I can do all my comms on here (Signal) and hopefully Reticulum. Who needs a phone anymore? #MechaComet #cyberdeck #Reticulum #networking

Did an online shop as a favor for someone who doesn't use card payment with Morrisons. Not only did they completely stuff my order they also tried to charge me for carrier bags we didn't receive. Really bad stuff. Won't be using them again.

when will the lesson finally get learned? #cloudflare

happy cloudflare outage day to all who celebrate

Does anybody know what bug it is on Facebook that is stopping people leaving comments today? How many other people are experiencing this?

Can anybody tell me why Facebook on the web pushes my CPU so hard. I've noticed this on every OS/piece of hardware I use. My computers CPU happily sits at 50 degrees C and as soon as I try and do something on Facebook it pushes it to 90 degrees. Only Facebook does this. Nowhere else.

Your daily reminder that BlueSky is just Twitter 2.0 and not a proper federated site with flaws… #BindingArbitration pluralistic.net/2025/08/15/d...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzUt... Sometimes dtuff needs to be shared. Bob is always Bob, but the plea of Stop just Stop to journalists offering “balance” and beyond to the heart of the Israeli government , this plea must be answered and the killing and starvation must stop.

@olive47.bsky.social just so you know Pirate TV is coming back. Not sure when but saw this on Instagram today… www.instagram.com/piratetvnet?...

Please give this a watch if you can. If you value open, social media give it a quick watch. It will be worth it. #Fediverse #SocialMedia #ByThePeopleForThePeople www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRJH...

We're arming a genocide - and thought that was rock bottom. Now, in desperate pursuit of the so-called “special relationship” - really just servitude to US corporate power - Starmer won’t even rule out more illegal wars.

Robbie Williams and Queen in Daventry? I think not. ticket247.co.uk/Event/davfes...

🚨Palestine Coalition statement: Release the Madleen crew immediately, end Israel's genocide now!

I got away from Xitter to avoid this kind of censorship. Now Bluesky is at it. Might have to consider my future on this platform. Mastodon seems like the only place we can truly speak freely.

I joined Benedict Cumberbatch, Riz Ahmed, Brian Cox, Gary Lineker and Annie Lennox and over 300 public figures to sign the CHOOSE LOVE open letter calling on the Prime Minister to end Gaza complicity - chooselove.org/news/our-ope...

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to learn that Nigel Farage’s ‘£7 Billion DEI Savings’ Don’t Actually Exist bylinetimes.com/2025/05/30/n...

The only roads closed to cars was the parade route itself. Why didn't the Police and local Council close more roads to moving cars where lots of people were expected? www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/whats-on/wha...

Disabled celebrities urge Keir Starmer to scrap ‘inhumane’ benefit cuts www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It’s bold and I like it. When our enemies are no longer faceless, then we see there’s probably more that unites us than divides us.

Why is Whistl such a shit parcel courier? Companies like these shouldn’t be allowed to operate.

🚂 Summer is here and I’m doing LIVE shows again now. My first gig of this season is @exeterlibrary.bsky.social tonight! Local to Exeter? Come along! I’ll share work and read from ‘Mrs Death Misses Death’ and ‘With Love, Grief and Fury’ - this one is for #dyingmatters awareness week! See you there!

There is some pretty rubbish Chinese fake merch on line but I spent a good 20 mins laughing at how rubbish this was today… #TMNT #NinjaTurtles

Thank you Greyhound!

Sounds like a good idea.
