Some Dutch people when they’ve been up and about in the middle of the night because they can’t sleep say “ik heb de hele nacht lopen spoken” or “i was ghosting around all night” anyway I’m ghosting around right now 👻

Spent way longer trying to find a screenshot of Angel writing for this than I care to admit

Me every time someone brings out the regular butter when there’s a side of bread with dinner: “what is the butter for?” Every time. I cannot stress enough how often I forget that butter goes on bread

Yeah okay - can't stop playing Cyberpunk. I'd been deeply craving a "realistic" action-adventure vibe, the last one I played must've been The Division 2, lol. My itch is being SCRATCHED. Also can NOT stop messing with that photo mode, so many beautiful bits of environment art to capture 😍

Finally got Cyberpunk and unfortunately the first mission I encountered was saving @jessecox.bsky.social without having even saved or ever driven in the game so sorry friend, you definitely had no chance of making it 🫣 I’ll give you an extra charming edit later to make up for it I guess

My love, support and condolences to Pat Dane’s family and closest friends. He will be greatly missed 🖤

Not me out here kind of missing this bullshit

wee nephew went from calling me “hedde” to “hildorrrrrr” and I need him to never stop. That’s my name now thank you

God give it a rest ye merry gentlemen

You get a lavalamp and a tamagotchi for Christmas. The tamagotchi came without batteries and you definitely don’t have any at home but you can’t wait to get some tomorrow It’s 2025. You’re 34

Tonight Þvörusleikir (Spoon Licker), the 4th of Iceland's 13 Yule Lads, comes down from the mountains. He sneaks in to lick used þvörur (large wooden cooking spoons). Children leave their shoes out for him in the window. He gives the good ones a small gift or a treat. The bad ones get a potato.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com

Trying to carve out the time for another Moria painting. Meanwhile I hear noises at the back gate... Walls of Moria 48" x 48" Oil on Panel 2022 Collection of the Artist

This is one of the best synopses of Symptoms Syndrome I've ever read 😭

I'm (unfortunately) in the market for new headphones (for video editing and other work, not outside) - something comfortable and not too heavy, possibly with a mic but not a need, MAYBE noise cancelling?? does anyone have any recs?

As Israel have been allowed to compete in Eurovision 2026, the UK must follow in the footsteps of Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and the Netherlands and boycott the competition. The world's largest live music event cannot be used to whitewash Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI. I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

Absolutely loved working on Mythmatch with Moo! What a joyful game and lovely team 💕

Why do the most beautiful calendars have the teeniest tiniest boxes to write all your plans in?

After reading Thirsty Animals by Rachelle Atalla this is instilling The Fear in me more than before ngl

I can’t remember the last time I had an oliebol 😔

Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in. Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

I have finally emerged victorious from a truly horrendous lurgy, sending love and healing potions to all going through the same this season, my GOD 😭

I wonder if Rockstar leadership envisaged this kind of response when they decided to fire 30+ workers in a union?

Dutch town still insists on using racist caricature for Sinterklaas event. Protest group announces they will protest event. Instead of removing said caricature, town cancels entire event because they can’t “guarantee safety”. Day ruined for the kids but at least the racists can keep being racist!

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

Not now, carnivorous death ball

So glad I got to see Frankenstein in an Edinburgh cinema, so sorry to everyone there that for some reason I chuckled every time I saw the Wallace Monument

Turning 34 on da supermoon it appears… Will I finally gain my powers?

Searching “cute spider egg” did NOT bypass the issue let me tell you

I can’t stop thinking about how I told my therapist (who I think is from the same generation) about how online emo culture really screwed us all up and she went “ah yes… emo… like evanescence and hoobastank’
