Age yourself with a film you saw in the cinema as a kid

My wife ( @annabelcwrites.bsky.social ) is a published author, and works as a medical writer. It’s safe to say she is good at words… I received this text from her this morning…

Post one of the most haunting shots in movie history from a film made before the year 2000.

I think someone at Uber’s marketing team pushed an ad campaign live without adding the copy to the script that generated the advert…

Check out the colours in this tree!

I agree👇👇

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

Shall we attempt to be ........W.O.K.E..?

Today I learned unnumbered lists are a right wing dog whistle.

I love that the entire point of this hack is to gender swap the two playable characters. That’s it, and that’s great!

Happy Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov Saves the World Day, everybody. 42 years ago today, Lt. Col. Petrov prevented an accidental nuclear war. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanisl...

That squint white coloring on his face reminds me of the late great Tiffin black toe.

How long before Trump renames the Department of Justice to the Department of Crime like he did the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

Was about to do a promo post for @annabelcwrites.bsky.social , @gen-dimova.bsky.social , and @toribovalino.bsky.social ‘s event today, then I realised it was sold out…

what if we kissed on the pretty freight machine

still looking for an iceberg researcher! is that you or someone you know? 🧪

I think I might be having a midlife crisis… I considered starting a podcast last week…

Okay, list is shaping up pretty well… But there’s a few more spaces if people want added, will also remove if people want me to. (Limit is 150). Folk attending @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social in Brighton next month…

I should link to the starter pack shouldn't I? go.bsky.app/5XGSyXk

Wait… Is Bluey set in a post apocalyptic world where humanity has died out, and over the millennia dogs have to be bipedal and taken over the niche that humans occupied? www.instagram.com/reel/DO9Ko-g...

In Yoshi's Island, a "tongue overflow" glitch exists whereby Yoshi's tongue is able to fly away and begin gaining infinite length, overwriting the game's memory. The tongue-based corruption can have any number of effects, including skipping to the credits and ending the game.

This book is still FREE. Go get it, and check out the rest of the series if you like :) mybook.to/insolitudess...

This is morally reprehensible and if you're someone fuelling this (and I say this with the full thrust of my being): Fuck you.

Auto cucumber mangled a message I sent about an ice breaker exercise I was putting together for a workshop at work yesterday. It changed it to “Ice Ice Breaker” now I want to come up with an ice breaker exercise which involves Vanilla Ice…

She went from: “You have no idea the fire that you ignited within this wife, the cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry” To: “That young man, I forgive him.” Pretty quick… I guess the suspect coming from a white MAGA supporting family changes everything?

Farage is a sick bastard, churning up hate for his own selfish reasons. I can promise you that applying for ILR and citizenship is an expensive process and we give the UK government many thousands of pounds, as well as paying tax like anyone else.

what movie do you consider "perfect?"

I don't often accuse the UK government of being sensible, but... A story in two acts, I'd love to see how this pans out...

We think we just saw an Eurasian Jay in our garden?

I reread this blog from 2021 and thought it had something interesting to say: "The flower-power-ish refrain of “And the world will be a better place” takes on a deeper, double-edged meaning at the end of A Christmas Carol because it underlines the story’s motif of speaking honestly of the dead. 1/2

No. You say you were whatever you like but you are racists.

JUST IN: An independent United Nations inquiry has concluded for the first time that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and that the country’s top leaders have incited genocide, in what it described as “the “most authoritative UN finding to date.” https://cnn.it/3VjaHzS

Genuinely thought the Google doodle today was a black and white mushroom cloud made out of hexagons… Apparently it’s something to do with sportsball instead.

I absolutely love seeing the technical hurdles developers had to jump through to get things to look like they did on older games…

This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for. But it’s the “violent left” that’s the problem

Get the fuck off X and start announcing plans for a Great British Firewall.

More people should listen to He-Man…

I’m a pacifist and abhor violence in almost all its forms (I’m okay with martial arts competitions as that’s a sport, so not all violence is “bad.”), but honestly if you are going to preach hate, and are the victim of hate inspired violence, then you kinda reap what you sow.

That’s enough internet for today…

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.

This is the person they are suspending people over btw
