We're live now! Come get yourself some kobolds and, if you so desire, a perfectly normal gentleman!

Well...?

I find American stand up can be quite hit or miss for me, but Night Thoughts from @kumail.bsky.social is so good! Talking about babies, this is my nearly 10 year old baby

I got my Christmas present from @alcides.bsky.social today. I can't wait to chaos draft them.

Pretentious wolf noises: Had the privilege of listening to Bo Burnham's Inside on vinyl tonight. There's something wonderful about having to take the physical ritual effort to listen to a piece, where a primary thesis is the insincere ephemerality of our modern culture and what it's doing to us.

Ghost of Tsushima The Hedgehog

The Man With the Golden Gun With Big Natruals

Slightly diminish a game Imprison the Spire

As we went to the same school, it shouldn't surprise me that @edzitron.com and I overlapped at Games Workshop too, don't know why that came as a bigger surprise. Still weird that we went to the same school though.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

This kingfisher took absolutely everything out of me — 23.5 hours of work! As one of my favorite birds, I just had to capture its stunning turquoise plumage in wool. #kingfisher #needlefelting #woolart #handmade #birds #bird #art #sculpture #felting #felt

Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art" There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept. You're using ai for concept art.

I enjoyed it. It was quite darkly roasted, almost tasted like coffee before it gave way to some fruityness, and the toasted rice flavour.

I can't believe that the final Dresden Files book is coming out in 10 days. Let's fucking go!

I think about this video most days www.instagram.com/p/C6HSwMYO3Tl/

People thought this exact same thing with Sherlock. I wish people would stop buying into this stuff. They shit the bed, it happens sadly far too often. kotaku.com/stranger-thi...

Gotta love disability taxes. Since I can't go outside, glasses people are going to charge me an extra 30 quid for the test, plus 30 quid extra on the glasses for delivery and adjustment in home.

Exciting. I’m looking forward to seeing how they all get on.

Ex-Meta chief AI scientist Yann LeCun has Lunch with the FT and in one of those instances so rare that you know he didn't sign an NDA, says exactly why as.ft.com/r/e503690d-8...

First finished book of the year is a re-read of Children of memory by @aptshadow.bsky.social. It continues to be one of my favourite series, and I'm very hyped for Children of Strife. Wish I could make it to a book event, but since I still can't go outside that seems unlikley. Fucking agoraphobia.

I'm watching Pokemon the Movie 2000 courtesy of @alcides.bsky.social and it really sounds like Ash has a 40 a day habit.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

Make a Bond movie casual: The man with the steel gun

An instant new christmas tradition was born: putting ham on the dog without her noticing We genuinely expected her to be more ham-aware than this 😅

Phone edits. Really happy with this. I was thinking about how I haven't had much gosling blep content this year so I was focused on them foraging but I can't say no to a good napping baby bird!

Claim this for free, then buy their new game Promise Mascot Agency which is up there for my favourite games of the year.

With Hogwarts Legacy being free on Epic: We know from the Epic lawsuit that they pay upfront for free games, and the number of redemptions is what they use to determine the value for money on them The fewer people claim it, the more Epic paid for each copy, the more it hurts the HP brand

It unsealed all of its own tape and now refuses to let any future tape adhere! Your science knows no bounds 😅

I'm so bad at wrapping presents that I've managed to curse a present so @paljus.me can't re-wrap it successfully.

Watching Clash of the Comics, and spotted the seats I was meant to be in. Oof.

@jlukeroberts.bsky.social Do you know when the recordings of the shows you did last year are likely to be released on Go Faster Stripe/wherever they're going to be released?

Thank you audiobook website that definitely doesn't have an ulterior motive. (I do absolutely agree with this though, and have got through so many audiobooks this year)

Not retail, but when I worked in the anatomy department, I got a call from a young guy Me: "Hello, Anatomy department" Him: "My mother just died, you want her?" "...sorry?" "She's dead. Do you want me to drop her off?" "...I'm afraid you can't donate *other people's* bodies" "FINE!" [Click]

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama. Us: Across your entire career? Reiner: In a 6 year period. Us: That sounds- Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Man, I fucking love Lorwyn. I wish Wales was real.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

"be gay, do crimes" and it's telemarketing fraud

Finally sitting down to read @eyepatchwolf.bsky.social 's beautiful book.

I started playing Arena this morning, and thought huh, this start looks familiar. Used a deep-cavern bat on their hand, and yep, @saffronolive.bsky.social has created a monster. It's a 20 shrine deck.

how can we keep calm and carry on now

First they came for the queers, and you didn't know it because we're not in the poem

When I first woke up to Ed's head sticking out from under my bed I thought hmm, this might be a bit much. After it happened eevrt day for a week. I came to understand the wisdom of it.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

1/ Why I sometimes ignore Nature Methods papers when picking bioinformatics tools. A practical guide to choosing tools that actually work.

I'm glad it brought her joy, but giving Lexi an ostrich steak has made her noxious.

@ianmcque.bsky.social Is there anywhere I can order Mileships from, or not atm?
