merry christmas everyone, please enjoy Unintentionally(?) Non-Binary Jigsaw Puzzle Piece

remember back in the day when vegetables were prescribed

met up with an old friend earlier

i keep thinking the name of a gonk is a grok, and then i get very sad when i remember what grok actually is

this evening i took part in the fantastic new twitch christmas tradition Fishmas, this is what happened to me after 1 hour of not catching a single fish: www.twitch.tv/josierustle/...

again and again i will say this: live comedy is so good

i’m in a first class train carriage for the first time ever and it took me far too long to realise the food & drink were complimentary. i got a slice of ginger sponge.

🇮🇪 #Eurovision 1994 winner Charlie McGettigan will return his trophy to the EBU in protest of Israel's inclusion. "In support of Nemo I would like to return my trophy to the EBU as well. Unfortunately our win was in 1994, but if I do find it I will return [it]". [📹 IPSC]

with Fishmas just over one week away I made a sizzle reel of catch reactions from previous fishmas competitors.

Last weird internet thing of the year. In two weeks we'll be holding the third annual Fishmas: a competition in which people simultaneously blind-compete to catch the biggest fish in a fishing game to win a free hat. Happy Fishing! rules & info: www.seanmorl.com/fishmas

So, yesterday Eurovision made a decision to swap Spain, Ireland, Netherlands and Slovenia (and possibly Iceland and Belgium too) for one (1) Israel. This begs the question, what next? I presume the EBU are hoping that they've taken a hit but now they can stem the bleeding. But can they? 🧵

Funny how this statement does not mention the one thing it's all about

i'm sure the EBU will enjoy organising the 2027 contest really close to some fresh mass graves

Nothing says feminism like forcing women to do something they have been vocal about not wanting to do.

please sign this petition and do not give jk rowling another penny. ever.

every once in a while i get reminded of how much i love(d) eurovision and it just makes me so sad

tipsily found the poem one of my secondary school friends gave me to profess his love for me, why do i even have this

green might as well be a primary colour tbh

i'm always amazed by what public online nerd photo collections exist and what doesn't. like you'd think there'd be a single website glossary of all the home waste bin designs/colours by country & region, but nope! surprisingly not!

to the excitement of nobody but me: the weird number plate that drove past me last year that looked like a normal uk one with the tajikistan flag on the side was actually a uk one with a *kurdistan* flag sticker stuck on the side, as i finally saw it whilst parked so got to have a proper look

it's a shame being someone whose dream home aesthetic ties in with having a lot of books, but doesn't read

again and forever i will say it: i love live comedy so much

it's a shame that the "delayed reaction" part of autism is typically related to sadness/trauma, like what about listening to an album not thinking much about it in the moment and then a couple weeks later your brain's suddenly like "oh yeah that was good!"

hard week to be someone rooting for a more alternative queen in drag race

tbh i don't particularly like square flags, but i do like this guy a lot (Canton of Glarus, Switzerland)

i've just seen that some people are using "levels" to categorise autistic people and it's like... am i now old for remembering functioning labels discourse?

i run an annual livestream of short presentations on niche interests. it's very wholesome and the invitation to speak extends to every living member of planet earth. this year's morl society is friday 28th november. sign-up form + more info: forms.gle/39oK5LokPh3P...

this version of the flag of Bavaria has big jester energy

yesterday i watched 3 separate videos on generally chill things where someone unexpectedly said the r-word. the main thing in common with the videos was that they were made by younger americans. idk what's happening over there but it needs to stop.

tried to do a sneaky look up of northern english dialects cos i’m bored in the office but unfortunately my cover got blown cos i laughed at how the main wikipedia image for Geordie is ant and dec

My latest for @nowthenmag.bsky.social: Who Remembers Attention Spans? Half of people in the UK think their attention span has shrunk. With "doomscrolling" becoming an increasing concern for policymakers, I ask: but is this even real though? nowthenmagazine.com/articles/who...

i love when randomers on tumblr reblog pics of comedians i posted in 2012, like good to know people still have the hots for said comedian in the year of our lord 2025

nobody in the office right now knows that i’m listening to hungarian yodelling pop

there's something quite cool and non binary about me

following paul smith (of maxïmo park) on instagram was honestly the best decision i've made in recent times. he mainly just posts pictures of aesthetically pleasing covers of books he's read and things he find on walls

put uk county borders on google maps i'm begging

yass queen house down Boots (retail shop)

i think the uk should use the word foamer. or, at the very least, use spotter/anorak in the same grammatical and casual manner as foamer is used

they literally turned the golden beaver into the chocolate bar...

i've been having some body shape/weight insecurities recently. just now i looked through some family photos from my childhood and seeing my relatives (and myself!) fluctuate in shape over time has really reminded me how truly pointless it is to worry about these things

the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

the seal for Nukus, Uzbekistan is genuinely lovely

being into petplay in the north east must be very confusing

every time there's political violence discourse i think about how jo cox was assassinated in broad daylight by a fascist who shouted "britain first" as he shot her, and now nine years later her party is dedicating every moment in power to placating the ideology of her murderer

once again i must state how fucking awful the audio mixing in the uk version of the voice is. it sounds like it's recording from the speakers at the back of the room and not the fuckin mic!!!!

fun coat of arms spotted during a geoguessr game (for Gemerská Poloma, Slovakia)

just remembered a male comedian that i used to really like and realised they're not in comedy/on social media anymore, which, uh, doesn't bode well as to why that might be

people talk a lot about weird country borders, but sometimes i come across a county border that confuses the hell out of me

i wish more people noted the wonderful comedic timing of the jaunty music coming in after hacker says "we're just innocent men"

i've just realised it's chumbawAmba, and not chumbawUmba like i originally thought, and i *think* it's cos i didn't realise i'm supposed to hear it as /wɒmbə/ instead of /wʌmbə/
