It's coming up to my Twitch affiliate anniversary stream. One of the things I love to do is write the code to make it interactive. Hours and hours of work for a few minutes of fun with everyone. It's super satisfying when it all comes together and everyone gets to enjoy it.

Thankfully I'm streaming some video games tonight. Because real life is frigging awful right now. *Waves at everything*

In completely unsurprising news, Reform's "Government is just managed badly - we will sort the budget" rhetoric hits the cold, hard reality of actually governing. Kent County Council proposes to increase tax by 3.99% in 2026/27 - BBC News share.google/IxmfkbIhg7Z3...

Finally! I will no longer look like an idiot when I'm doing panto!

When you can't trust your guard dogs to be enough of a deterrent.

Could someone explain to me why I keep getting emails from, what I can only describe as Podcast Agents, saying they can get me on loads of podcasts? Despite the fact I'm way too busy, what's in it for them? Is there actually an ecosystem out there of podcasts being desperate for guests?

WILD Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery was set 30 years after he lived in the 60's. The setting of the original film is now almost as far back as the original premise! When we talk to our kids about the 90's, it would have been like us being told about the 60's!

Sitcom idea: @ivograham.bsky.social, Heather Graham and Stephen Graham all run a biscuit factory together. Graham's Crackers I'll take the money now, BBC.

@ivograham.bsky.social love your work. Quick question - did your parents name you after the Peter Gabriel album Ovo? It's a musical masterpiece and was created for the Millennium Dome show. You're among the greats if so!

From an IT point of view. Man, I REALLY hate British Summer Time.

While doodling in a meeting recently I came up with this artwork to celebrate 50 years of Microsoft.

That moment when an adult sat in front of you at the theatre gets a f***ing booster seat.

Hear me out. Nintendo uses Switch 2 download play to rerelease Wii U games

It's 2025 and your Android device still cannot tell a Bluetooth speaker to not play notifications.

Turns out that driving and moving furniture for 12 hours DOES take it out of you!

An absolutely delightful post from Eurogamer. Is Mario having an existential crises or, deep down, are we all on an Odyssey? www.eurogamer.net/with-switch-...

Move over, Microsoft 365. It's time for 365+!

I've just activated Windows XP on a laptop and frankly, I'm amazed it worked.

Rooty-toot-toot, and rump-a-tum-tums

Giddyup jingle horse!

Sonic × Shadow Generations on Steam is wild. Horror game of the year?

Gotta get me some of those Lorum Ipsums
