Every single person in the UK will think this is something else for a split second

There could DEFINITELY be something swimming the canals of the North West. Possibly that originally crawled out of a too deep mine.

Written English has barely changed in 300 years. If you can read Harry Potter, you can read Robinson Crusoe (1719).

I’ll never be a ninja. #comicsky #webcomic #comic

In an attempt to become a more well rounded human being I decided to take up art having never really done any before. Specifically lino cut. Clearly I still have a LOT to learn, but I was happy with my first real attempt (as opposed to dicking about working out how the cutters respond) #art

"thin places" are locations where the veil between the physical and spiritual worlds is said to be particularly thin.

It's a sad state of affairs when the Daleks have better water hygiene standards than Thames Water. #DoctorWho

Watched Empire Records and it's clearly and 80s movie made in the 90s. With the benefit of hindsight and an accouncy qualification Joe has really fucked himself there. Within about 10 years of 1995 Napster and internet music destroyed loads of independent music shops.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the sound track to #SmallGods is incredible. Also I feel like there is a folk horror element to it @raynewman.bsky.social, even if you don't watch a lot of telly.

Paging @sarahmiguel.bsky.social. Pugachu Sarah. Pugachu.

It's a hoot. I've seen people banging on about the brigerton's having a lot of kids. Pffft. 8? You gotta pump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers!

periodic reminder of the existence of Hipster Ipsum (hipsum.co), an extremely useful filler text generator for when you're drafting a grant proposal that has physical page limits as opposed to word counts my preference is Hipster with a shot of Latin

Really enjoyed playtesting "What Haunts You" by @innocentgoblin.bsky.social you should check it out when he kickstarts it/releases it. Its got forged in the dark bones, and I really liked the stats as an exhaustible currency mechanism. #TTRPG

This made me furious the last time I saw it. And it still does. So at least I am consistent.

Just remembered that the teacher who played piano during assemblies at my junior school was called Ms. Tchaikovsky. Surely some relation, &c.

Ok. So. I'm having a party for a "big" number in about 6 weeks. As someone with an art degree I've taken it up on myself to paint some iconic 90's decorations. I've got a little list of items growing but...any suggestions hive mind? #party #painting

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Don’t be a moon-faced assassin of joy, go watch it. 👍

This is blackout poetry to me

The talk to your friends app and the witness the horrors app being the same app is not great for the mental health is it

I'm enjoying #SmallProphets but not as much as the Small Prophets soundtrack. It's really really good.

I'm thrilled to welcome guest author @raynewman.bsky.social to Listen with Other. In series 5, Ray reads his new story The Interchange, with his own original music and location recordings. Find it at listenwithother.co.uk and wherever podcasts are found. #podcasts #fiction #writing

This is a good perspective on the orders of magnitude in the TTRPG publishing industry, and by and large positions us correctly at the bottom-most named tier (while acknowledging that there's a broad swath of indie designers further down). cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2026/02/11/f...

This is really interesting - my guess is most of the publishers I think of as big are in the single digit millions line (I don't really think about WotC or Piazo much). Monte Cook is not on there and I bet they sit between 10^0 and 10^1 millions.

Like I know scammers are stupid but like. This is like shaking down the average consumptive and perhaps louse-ridden Victorian waif. "Come on, come on, I know you've got gold bars sewn into your soot-covered rags!!" Sir I assure you we do not We are the eaters of gruel

Spent the day with my friend & her kids. The 6 y.o told me "she looks a bit like you" whilst we were watching 'Fantasia'. I may never recover from this 🫠

The drone on a luge run is awesome

What’s your Gladiator name? Mine is womble.

This amused me greatly 😂 especially the fox painting 😂 Thank yoooo @cheekybudgie.bsky.social

Being terrified of the implement doesn't help. It's like something Darth Vader would use to extract a confession from a member of the Rebel Alliance held captive aboard the Death Star.

Skiing used to be great but it's gone down hill

This is vile. 13-15 rounds of fertility treatment so far. I hope the universe visits crippling piles on him. An anus so itchy he never sleeps properly again.

Important news: Movie titles that begin with "I," in English are very funny in Spanish.

"You're right I did pour my malice, cruelty, and will to dominate all life into it. Let me try again whilst seeming wise and fair" I for one am looking forward to the scouring of silicone valley. #SauronGPT #LLM

It's a rare classic movie I've seen I get to show @hellybellyb.bsky.social for the first time. I think this might be the first in fact.

The birthright-wing

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

Love the fact the world appears to be run by dark eldar. Like a bunch of fascist weebs who don't understand the 80s or satire think this is the imperium of man when it is, in fact, all torture gardens and Haemonculi. #wh40k

Ooh, the hype! Blazing a trail(er) for the last generation of AD&D 2E games at E3 1998: Baldur's Gate! #VideoBytes

Camps, where detainees can be concentrated.

If only there were an incredibly famous poem about what occurs when they come for successive groups of people.

january 30th: a partially formed mr. blobby stands by the perimeter fence and screams for thirty seconds before disappearing

Anyone know what's up with @embersofhumanity.bsky.social been waiting on the Kickstarter for a while but it's gone real quiet. Which is a shame.

What? May 20th to June 21st?

This sounds like it might actually be worse than I thought it sounded at first

This is one of my main issues with LLM. People keep arguing it's a trade off, and all that bad stuff is worth it but... It also doesn't benefit you. So you get all the bad stuff and then some more different bad stuff.
