Holy shit we might have a cure for sickle cell anemia

Thrilled that this project I've been working so hard on is finally out. Introducing From The Library of Jurgen Leitner is the first novel set in the Magnus universe. It's been a pleasure working closely with @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social to bring this multi book project to life. #newbook

We’re live on Twitch for our #MagnusPod anniversary live stream! Join Alexander J Newall and Jonathan Sims now for fun, games and some big announcements. www.twitch.tv/rusty_quill

A gentle request for podcasters, especially audio drama podcasters, as someone who is downloading series and episodes onto a digital audio player: Please, please, please, sort your metadata

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

Good news The first vaccine designed to target the entire SARS virus family, GBP511, has entered human clinical trials. Developed by UW Medicine and brought to trial by SK Bioscience, it aims to protect against COVID-19 and future coronaviruses before they spark the next pandemic.

Are you all as excited as we are about the the season 3 finale releasing tomorrow?! Since we've been teasing the appearance of the great @jonnysims.bsky.social, can you all make a guess as to who he will be playing in the season finale? #podcast #seasonfinale #casting

In general, generative AI is not good. Steals other people’s idea, HUGE waste of resources, creates no value and has to be propped up by massive amounts of funding This, however is an acceptable use of AI #FuckICE

TMA BOOK FAN PROJECT While there are no new TMP episodes for me to make posters from, I decided to do a cool side project… Book covers! The page files are from Macey Smalley (maceyjsmalley on tiktok and insta) The covers and box are my own design! Let's take a look? 👇

Started listening to @camlannpod.bsky.social after yesterday’s @tincanaudio.co.uk stream and it starts with the only welsh folk song I know! Love that a story about magic and monsters is using a song about setting fire to a building to piss off the uk government, but it is an excellent tune 😆🥰❤️

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain. A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones. The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

Mods asleep, post bearded cricketer's head with bat wings telling you about my stream.

This is called ‘Twenty Modern-Day Proverbs’.

We’ve been waiting to further explore the sign language learning elements found in Inspirisles, and with Dragon Dowsers we finally can! During downtime, you’ll be able to nurture the hatchlings using sign language, as if communicating in baby sign or Makaton. Can’t wait to show you more! 🐉👋🏽

#OnThisDay 64 years ago, Macabre listeners heard "The Midnight Horseman," first aired December 11th 1961. An eerie old painting and an unusual ritual lead to a fatal disaster... Hear it on Apple Podcasts, or stream it here: daffadilli.es/p433405 #AudioDrama #OldTimeRadio

Some lovely Magnus Protocol vibes here 😅@anusiabattersby.bsky.social @billielhindle.bsky.social youtu.be/HdzImxI47W4?...

okay it's that time of year again where i'm financially turbofucked. bills going crazy with a gvt that refuses to believe i'm as disabled as i am even though i'm basically housebound and maybe £5 for the rest of the month any help at all would be huge ko-fi.com/frankentine

Oh my goodness, the time has FLOWN! What an amazing creation to have been part of! ❤️🎪🎩

Rather unsettled to see my voice is also on here… Look I know y’all want to have your fun but there are countless other ways of having fun with the character of Alice in creative, safe and non-infringing ways. Listen to Fay. And listen to me. I do not give consent for my voice to be ripped.

Sitting in bed, listening to the rain, breastfeeding my baby and listening to @tincanaudio.co.uk ’s Pitcrawler on Bandcamp is my new happy place ❤️❤️❤️ tincanaudio.bandcamp.com/album/a-pitc... (Can’t wait to introduce ttrpgs to the little guy)

J “…I haven't been getting the best sleep.” P “New mattress?” J “No, no, it's not that I can't sleep. It's that my sleep isn't restful.” P “Then get a new mattress.” J “Forget about the mattress. What are you, sponsored?” @soundmuseumpod.bsky.social is my new favourite podcas, highly recommend!

y'all i am SO psyched to be in this show!!!!
