Is The Rapture the one you can't wear white shoes after?

"The slave patrols still run, night and day.¹ The colonial police still brutalise, body and soul.² Our homeland is still stolen land, here and now…³ Everywhere we go, colonialism still follows us. Everywhere we stand is colonial ground." Footnotes in text. folukeafrica.com/time-and-pla...

Rapture is it? What again? Again?

The salvage of The Nauvoo in The Expanse is one of the best bits of spaceship porn I've ever seen. Yeah I'm comfort watching The Expanse again.

How have I only just discovered there’s a Michael Rosen mod for Skyrim? You can have Michael Rosen as a companion and he comes with loads of Michael’s sound clips pre-loaded as dialogue

Morning! What fresh hell is this? Sore throat is it? This stupid cold really is the gift that keeps on giving.

and that kid grew up to be a shopkeeper in Skyrim

You lot and your unfiltered snaps. Must cost a fortune in attic painting, you're all looking very attractive.

Me: Please leave some roasties, I'm making bubble and squeek for tea tomorrow. Them: Oh. Sorry I just ate them all. Me: All? Oh OK. Maybe I'll make some more then. Them: I can't promise I won't do it again.

That'll do pig. That'll do. [burps] Also had a roast.

Don't want to flex, but I've made a red gooseberry, blackcurrant and apple crumble for in a bit. Gluten free. Sugar freeish.

Designer/Accessibility folks, what/if anything do you (your schools) use for remediation of materials. We are using Kurzweil and I'm not super impressed. Did some searching, but I like to hear from people doing the work. @annaecook.bsky.social @martinnutbeem.bsky.social

Nobody warns anyone that the roof is on fire anymore and that's sad.

Nobody waves their hands in the air like they don't care anymore and that's sad.

People share way too much info anyway; I know it's really easy to do! But to do it about your kids is ill judged. Of course Meta and similar tech companies will exploit that data. They will send photos of your teen daughter to middle aged men to drive growth. They know what they're doing.

Still meh. Properly wheezy. Doing a bit of self-medication.

Ugh. Miserable. I really don't care for the Radiohead, sorry. #totp

Fastest BPM til D&B took off! Roots! #totp

Play James you cowards! #totp

Don't play Texas you cowards #totp

Yay! Mótõrhëăd. No, Mõtøřh3àď. No. That's not right. Anywah. Yay. #totp

Play Anita Dobson you cowards #totp

There is just no such thing as a good football song. Prove me wrong* #totp *I actually have 3 good football songs but fucking hell the football tracks from this episode are utterly awful.

I can clearly see you Ian Brown #totp

What is the greatest sci fi film of all time? Sci Fi Snobbery returns to Aberdeen Science Festival tomorrow as Simon Watt and I search for the best Monster and the best Disaster Sci Fi film www.aberdeenperformingarts.com/whats-on/sci...

The US is doing the same things as the UK just in a slightly different order.we had a TV commissioner picked for BBC One because he was a friend of the Prime Minister, and his first act was to cancel a satirical TV show that made fun of the Prime Minister.

A mate of mine writes about foraging. Everything about mushrooms has to be: "Picking mushrooms is fun! Many of them are perfectly safe. But if you're not sure, don't. It's not my fault if you die. In fact, best not."

Iain Banks was ahead of the game

Ugh. Slept loads today but now I'm very awake but also feeling rough.

Something beautiful for you before we all hit the sack. 😊 Love to all you kind peeps ❤️

Yeeeesssss. Lulling Bluesky into a false sense of security and then it'll wake up in a bath missing a kidney. Yeeeesssss.

@sentimentbot.bsky.social Do me. Don't be gentle.

Right. I've powered through this viral thing for a week now and have felt progressively cruddier. Told my manager I'm ill. I'm going to go fester under a blanket.

My biggest achievement? I once found a blue plastic square with a fiver in it in a packet of walkers ready salted crisps.

New specs have just arrived. Have needed them for months. Had the prescription for months & just sat on it. Anyway, I can see again, which is good cos when I swap back to the old I can't see anything. Not sure why I got sunglasses as my second pair in time for autumn, but there we go. I CAN SEE!

Morning Bluesky, have you registered to agitate against the state today?

The exhibition is a spin-off of @tom8enjamin.bsky.social’s Brutal Bristol zine project. The dates are Weds 8 to Sun 12 October if you want to plan travel. I wouldn't build a whole trip around it but if you've been meaning to come to Bristol at some point, it might provide a focal point.

I spent last night writing about car parks as part of the PR for an exhibition on brutalist buildings in Bristol that's happening in October. We do have some interesting ones. This one, on Rupert Street, is from 1960 and was designed by Swiss architect Rudolph Jelinek-Karl.

This is great. You should all stop what you're doing and do this

#VeeMakes Made a Giant Thing. (Regular size thing for scale)

Tell you what, I feel a darn sight safer wandering around London these days than I did in the 90s. I'm not even that keen on London, it's too much for my country mouse sensibilities. But yeah, I'd question the seriousness of anyone telling you it's crime-ridden. Deeply question them.

As I sit here getting ready to post a few records which took nearly 6 months to be pressed, it occurred to me how unimaginable it is now to have a record in the shops barely a few days after recording it.

Do we get ghost stories about digital technology in the same that we had ghost stories about Industrial Revolution technology? Or did science fiction take over that role? #signalman

I appear to be a bit of a miserabilist today.

OK here is my new promise. Every time you organise an event about neurodivergence and how my community needs understanding and support, and DON’T make it hybrid, I will badger you until you do. Otherwise it’s just disability-washing #nothingaboutuswithoutus

I've still got a low level lurgy, I feel sufficiently shitty enough to not go into work on designated day so am WFH. Therefore please find my list of things you find in stupid open plan hotdesk offices: 1. Filthy Mouse. Not noticed for 30 mins but your fingers been stroking that and ewwww.

The week in news. "Joey Goebbels may have embraced very different cultural ideals to me, but we shouldn't forget that he tirelessly and courageously championed free speech for that circumscribed demographic of society he deemed human. My piece on Political Deification in today's Daily Distortion"

Yeah, this is probably the silliest thing I've seen in ages. #Quack
