Well, this is just a new fangled form of #JellyLoad, isn't it? @futurewas8bit.bsky.social @tynemouthsoftware.co.uk

Nice new pen. MoonMan C1. Colossal ink reservoir capacity. I just hope it won't leak. Was hoping for a nice new perspective too. Guess we can't have everything we want. Ah well. #FountainPen #PensAreFriends

Here's all 8 pages of CO2 Newsletter Vol 1 no 1 (Oct 1979) Geologist William N. Barbat published the Newsletter for 3 years (18 issues). They are incredible - detailed, precise and, ultimately, heart-breaking because they reveal how much was known, how many warnings were ignored. 1/8

Wise words which we would all do well to heed.

#Dreading return to #DayJob and it's kinda spoiling the remaining time off. Yeah, I know. Alright for you pal, having a #SoulSuckingCluckingDayJob which at least barely pays the bills. Current #Mood in the house is:

The sad bit inevitable act of gritted-teeth endurance for an easier life during the holiday season. I have never, ever heard anyone actually say this phrase, ever. Makes me wince every time. #BringMoreGin

Sleep well, Buck. #RIP Gil Gerard.

Happy 100th birthday to Dick Van Dyke!

Watched "Sleeping with the Enemy" last night and now I'm wondering at what point in the relationship did he start using Hector Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique for their sexy-time music. Did it start as an ironic joke or what?

Light from the Andromeda galaxy takes about 2.5 million years to reach Earth. Relative time is zero for a photon travelling at the speed of light, so no time passes for the photon on its journey from Andromeda to your retina. There is a direct connection between you and the rest of the universe.

I have been banned from Etsy! After 2 years, over 700 5 star reviews, Etsy has decided that the items I sell are prohibited. This includes all the hand-made chiptune gear, and all homebrew games. So… I built my own store instead! www.hobbychop.com #chiptune #homebrew #psg #arduinoboy #genmdm #mt32

Just found out that Maru died last month. #RIP

I'm generally okay with being an NPC. This game is an ineptly staged plot hole anyway and at least I get respawned at the end of each level.

Overheard conversation: "Nah. I don't really wanna watch that. Honestly, I'm a bit bored with post-apocalyptic dystopian dramas. Mostly because we're living in one."

It's the final hours of fundraising for this footpath/cycleway advocacy, development and sustainment project. Slow Ways had done some great work so far. Help them take it further www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/slowways #Footpaths #Walking #Cycling #Hiking #Sustainability #Exercise #Health #Wellbeing
