This is a fantastic article.

It's time for your real life #Cyberpunk dystopian fact of the day, kids... Although you might say if *I* have an AR-15 and *you* have 64mb of DDR5 RAM then very soon *I* shall have an AR-15 AND 64mb of DDR5 RAM... Being from the UK I had to look up if this is ACTUALLY true...and it is!

I’m a loner, Frodo. A rebel.

This morning I saw an actual sunbeam slipping in through the curtains! I went in the garden and the sky was blue and a there was a butterfly! This evening we went for a twilight walk and saw the first blackthorn blossoms under a gold full moon. It's Spring now. I've called it.

This is called "Meat, Metal and Metempsychosis" and it's Medea's (my #CyberpunkRed MedTech) beliefs about cybersurgery as art. She's had an intense few days! "Painted" with melted wax and hot tools.

"In the dark times / Will there also be singing? / Yes, there will be singing / About the dark times". So here's a cyberpunk song of silicon and scar tissue to take your mind off the unfolding end of the world. And yesterday was payday, too! Previews, orders, etc here www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DXCFDL2R

Beautiful response from Joanne Harris when asked about Magic Realism. 'Magic' is about creativity and believing you can influence the world. Because 'monsters' still exist [insert topical reference...].

Folklore is a living current in perpetual manifestation, perpetual mutation. Each telling – whether in story swapped across pints or carved into a church's wooden bestiary – makes a bridge from then to now and onto tomorrow. Even the smallest oak dragon is transmission. – #CLNolan #FolkloreSunday

S'ok TikTok, we're good.

Right! Work is done. Going to eat some venison. Then I'm putting on the skin of Medea Rezz, exiled ripperdoc, to solve a crime in Night City. #CyberpunkRed

So, people of the Internet, I have a question for you that I found in another place.

We kan daunse yf if plese us We kan leave thy friendes behinde For thy friendes daunse not and yif thei daunse not Then no friendes thei are of myne Ich saye, we kan wende wher it plese us, A place thei shal nevir fynde And we can act lyke we come from Brocéliande Leave the real worlde far behinde

...and so Spud learned that being a little Edge Lord hits different in real life. Or GETS hit different I mean. By the ACTUALLY cool kid.

Feeling weird as I just found nearly 4 decades later that the kindly old man whose house I used to visit to learn about mediaeval church art & architecture was the the person who smashed the gates of Belsen with his tank - among other wartime heroics www.independent.co.uk/news/people/...

Interesting chart In particular though look at the male/female split between collisions on motorbikes/cycles a and on animals. Never been in an accident on a bike but dislocated my shoulder and broke my wrist due to a car startling a horse I was riding.

Oh look - a beautiful 1930s tea set. Just the ticket for those days when you want a bit of body horror with your elevenses of a Francis Bacon Roll.

I've just read the first draft of the first 5 chapters of the sequel to Bad Sector by @cydethan.bsky.social Now I'm unnaturally hot, very thirsty and my eyes feel too wide open! It'll be a while til it's done but if you want to prepare you can get Bad Sector here www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DXCFDL2R

Today I have learned about The Guard Geese of the Scotch Watch - and you should, too scotchwhisky.com/magazine/whi...

This picture is so crazy that if you had this as a scene in a made-for-TV dystopian scifi movie in like 2014 people would switch channels because you’d ruined the suspension of disbelief.

That “three megabytes of hot RAM” line from Neuromancer is in grave danger of becoming vindicated

I just had a Kvarg coffee flavour protein yoghurt and it tastes like those coffee creams you used to get in 1980s chocolate boxes, you guys! Amazing!

Is there actually no end to their stupidity? Nicely done, Bedford Council, Nicely done.

It's Pancake Day...and that means second dinner!

Just looking through some old comics and found a mail order advert for Small Prophets

I think the only thing thats gonna stop the rain is the sacrifice of a billionaire

I just saw an article about the village of Imber which I haven't thought about for decades - not because of any supernatural memory wipes I'm sure On Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire (close to where I lived as a child) there's a village, settled since the iron age & first recorded in 967 1/4

Want to know how to make mice transparent with Dorito dust? Massage tartrazine solution into their skin for optical transparency in the red zone of the visible spectrum as it absorbs blue light, making the refractive index of water closer to fat & so allowing photons to pass through the skin

Roses are red Violets are blue Actually they're both yellow But moving rapidly away from and towards you

We met the quest cat in the spring woods today. She has wares if traveller have coin.

Look what @cydethan.bsky.social got me ❤️

It's just after 3am and there is a robin singing really loudly outside the bedroom window. It's not singing time, little bird!

There's still time to get Bad Sector for yourself or the one you love for Valentine's Day. It's the best present I ever had. Or show me your love by sharing my post or maybe a little review if you've read it ❤️ Available in hardback, paperback and Kindle. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DXCFDL2R

My plans for tonight: eat a steak and kidney pudding and chips and then. play #CyberpunkRed. We're only a few sessions in and have already got ourselves enmeshed in delicate balancing acts between dangerous people. It's Friday 13th, what could possibly go wrong? #ttrpgs

#CyberpunkRed tomorrow night and I wrestle with the age old question of whether to save up my IP to raise my role ability or nudge up some skills. #ttrpgs

Did you know @cydethan.bsky.social dedicated Bad Sector to me for #ValentinesDay? Now you can share the love with who - or what - ever holds your heart, too Or snuggle up & feel it for yourself Or show me your love by sharing my post ❤️ In hardback, paperback & Kindle. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DXCFDL2R

2 episodes in and this is wonderful. That nice Mackenzie Crook has written a story just to appeal to me.

Look at this! pmbuchan.substack.com/p/meet-autho... It's an interview with Cy Dethan by Phillip Michael Buchan about storytelling, magic, Bad Sector and being at the intersection where Fucking Around meets Finding Out. Also it mentions me and shows one of my wax pictures so I'll be pleased if you do
