Isn't "Training Exercise" used in films as an excuse to cover up black ops? Are we supposed to believe it in real life? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it anyway, rules are rules, here is the exact moment she fell in love

It's the first in a series! Bah! It should be the law for books to clearly state if they're part of a series. I've been catfished so many times by books I thought were standalones.

I was enjoying the book I'm currently reading, but I'm nearly at the end and it's taken a bit of a weird turn. I'm going to finish it, but I don't love the direction it's going.

Today is the day. Hope vs hate. Green vs Reform. Vote Green in Gorton & Denton.

Really love it when I adjust my routine to accommodate other people, and they make absolutely no effort to be on time. Will not be doing that again.

This popped into my head again at the weekend.

This show was incredible. One of the best concerts of my life

Happy Lunar New Year/ Ramadan Mubarak/Pancake Day!

Oh look, it's my internal monologue

There's never a time I hate being single more than days like these* *I need to shave my undercut

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful. Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

We should get the Etsy witches on this.

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

I'm late to the party (as usual) but the new Muppets Show was just delightful.

Age Verification? I checked the newspaper to see what was showing at the cinema.

This might do it

Getting my parents to watch Sinners. I am excited for them to see it.

Forbidden Gummie Bear

Browsing what's on at the cinema and I've just learnt that the new Avatar is 3 hours and 20 minutes. At least the Melania doc is only 1hr45

Labour took votes for granted. They've blown it. Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services. Vote Green - and stop Reform. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What's the best reading order for Murderbot? I've read All Systems and Red and Artificial Condition. I've got System Collapse ready to collect the library but I'm not sure if that's the best one to read next, it's just the first one to become available.

Abolishing ICE is not enough. They must be publicly identified. They must be prosecuted. They must be punished. Justice must be served.

What's this "Leaving Soon" nonsense Netflix is saying about She-Ra???

It's been hard to keep this under wraps. deadline.com/2026/01/lore...

Reposting this for no particular reason

Of all the ways WW3 could start this probably isn't the stupidest, but it's Top 5 at least.

I don’t make the rules, but when it’s reposting this, I damn well follow them and YOU’D BETTER TOO. youtu.be/jPCJIB1f7jk?...

Wednesday is TRANSPHOBES ARE TRASH DAY! Congratulations to those who celebrate this wonderful day. Also, every other day is also Transphobes are Trash Day, I forgot to mention that.

Post your favourite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only!

NOW: Crowd continues to grow in Minneapolis at a vigil where a federal agent shot and killed Renee Good this morning. “SAY HER NAME!” “RENEE GOOD!”

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

The mine was run by cheap, venal bastards,

Blep

Well, isn't this just terrifying

Uhm, yes hello...

To me, my X-Mas!

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate and Happy Thursday to everyone!

Update: Different cat.

Today, the UK Government’s Planning Bill became law – a big blow for wildlife. Thousands of you fought for nature as the Bill passed through Parliament. Now, this isn’t the time to stay silent – nature needs us more than ever. Join us & speak up 👇 action.rspb.org.uk/page/180990/action/1

Astonished at the number of creative intelligent discerning people who casually use “I asked Chat GPT” when talking about their daily lives. AI is bad, the work of bad people, who hate you, normalised with bad intent. You wouldn’t say “I wrote to the Daily Mail” I wish people had more shame.

I am slightly concerned about a local stray cat who keeps coming into the garden. He looked very skinny a few days ago and today is significantly rounder. I'm worried it's a serious health issue he needs help for, but there is also the possibility that it is not the same cat.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

Australia, where even the parachutes want to kill you.

It might be because I'm watching a lot of Power BI how to videos, but every single fucking ad on YouTube is for AI and I cannot express how much I never want to see one ever again.

My wonderful wife @alicenuttallbooks.bsky.social's debut novel The Zombie Project came out this year, and it's absolutely brilliant. It's funny, scary, sad and exciting. It's middle-grade but as an adult I loved it. It'd be an EXCELLENT Christmas present #JustSayin www.amazon.co.uk/Zombie-Proje...
