This feature is so cool, my partner finally has a game she can play while stuck in seizures for like an hour!! Not perfect but it's huge for us so far, wouldn't have seen it without @laurakbuzz.bsky.social

Got Claudia, immediately surrendered full control of my life to her

Many pro astrophysicists receive unsolicited letters from amateurs with new but subtly wrong physics theories, often about relativity and from retired engineers. This cute new paper is a perfect reply & I love how it uses cyclotrons & transponders & radar 🧪🔭 arxiv.org/abs/2605.21660

We did it, lads. We banned trans people from toilets. Now to sit back and watch house prices come down and vegetables stop rotting on supermarket shelves and we'll all come together and feast on Cadbury's Creme Eggs as big as your head, m'boy, And we'll watch Morecambe and Wise, who did NOT die

That's right - a whole year of spooky mysteries written by me & Sash and, before you ask, they're system neutral so YES they will be playable with The Magnus Archives RPG. [And yeah, we know about Kickstarter's announcement yesterday, but it was all in motion by then, so don't hold it against us]

*me reading any article about anything* you guys need to listen to more jazz fusion

Scottish Labour manifesto is out, don’t vote for them

Gimli is real mad about this particularly indignity

Ok I have far too much to do today to spend more than 2 minutes on this but here’s my political cartoon of the day, please enjoy

From ‘The Onion’ Editorial Board:

How can the government possibly deal with the threat from Reform? I dunno, have you heard of A DRACONIAN CRACKDOWN? Imagine Farage was a vegetarian Marxist and just do whatever you would do to that guy.

It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested. If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC. That's sensible, proportionate policing.

TFW u open BlueSky and a bunch of ppl are vaguely posting about the same shit

Neophyte? The thing that happened in The Matrix???

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

You absolutely do not got to hand it (loads of cash) to them

"BABY GHOST!" shouted my toddler from under a blanket, easily outdoing Hemmingway by a full four words.

If you're in the UK and you're annoyed that you don't know which AI companies are training on your copyrighted work without permission, the reason is now simple: the Labour party. This isn't a political statement - it's a fact. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

New etymology image: "gun" is short for "Gunilda" "Lady Gunilda" was a Middle English nickname for large siege weapons. This was shortened to "gonnilde", and then to "gunne". "Gunne" ultimately evolved into the modern English word "gun". #etymology #language #linguistics #english_language

The Prosecco Stormfront moniker has always been the best description of the UK TERF movement, both on Mumsnet and off of it.

added something important to fallen london this week

if you are a cis person it costs you nothing to just say today that you see & hear your trans sisters & brothers & others over in the UK today -- and around the world, too, knowing that rulings like today's ripple out in ugly ways.

Heads up, the Jeremy Vine show are sniffing around trying to get a trans woman on their show to "debate" if the UK was right to try and take away our rights etc. Don't say yes if invited. It's a gotcha. They're aiming to set up a panel with multiple anti trans voices platformed as authoratative.

Two kilograms of weird specialty coffees, some new pens, and this funky little guy. Best birthday

Reminder

the powerful really dislike that the people not of their class have agency. limiting access to as much of the world as they can ensures that they retain as much control as they can while preserving the illusion of free choice. stay home and look at a screen, it's all on the screen anyway, right?

brb, translating 'Hwæt!' as 'Chat!' and seeing how many furious scholars I can trap in this lobster pot

My favourite episode is the one where Poirot gets a shoulder-mounted cannon.

One more wisdom tooth out, one more step along the eternal min-maxing of the flesh

"Games shouldn't have an easy mode" says gamer for whom this game is the hardest thing they have to do this week.

Posters. Stickers. Flyers. “Handbills” although lol nobody says handbills except in academic text. Marking the public space as the home of the public and not the property of the guys who bought up the buildings

Dear Deirdre, I lead a centre left party with socialist origins. I’ve noticed that a far right party is making gains among people who will always hate me. I’ve decided to move ever further right in a craven attempt to win them over, alienating my base and other left wing voters. Will this work?

It makes as much sense to have a public debate about trans healthcare as it does to have a public debate about hip replacements. You almost certainly know nothing about it and so you should shut up. The government knows nothing about it and should leave it to the experts

Immediately started the year off with fracturing the elbow on my dominant arm, which is I think a good omen usually?

Just once we should have the clocks change on New Year's, as a logistical treat

This new prosecution guidance from the CPS is horrifying - the inevitability of this being maliciously weaponised against trans people is clear and grim www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/pro...
