#NowWatching "Springfloden" OK, just finished that. Hated the ending. In fact, I didn't really like the whole premise. No. Won't be watching that again.

Permanently baffled by the fact that there are still Conservatives in Scotland. Let alone Reform. What's wrong with people?

By-Election Preview: Stranraer and the Rhins (Dumfries and Galloway) 20th of November 2025 An Independent with decades of service, retired, Conservatives, falling to bits locally, Reform... in with a shout? Call: Reform UK-Conservative Tossup

Brilliant! Well donne, Jim!

2 points.

Great for the non-neurotypical customer

I need your help, chums. Running low on food & need to pay my phone & internet bills, so am selling some of my records in the hope of generating some income. Take a look, if 2nd hand records are your thing, or repost to reach the vinyl lovers out there ❤️ www.discogs.com/seller/DrJam...

I think more people should confront the fact that Bruce Wayne--and most of the Batman supporting cast--more than likely have south New Jersey accents due to Gotham being right by Atlantic City, canonically You may not be strong enough to confront this truth, but a truth it remains

Glen Roy's "parallel roads", north of Roybridge in Lochaber. Long held in folklore to be hunting paths used by the Celtic warrior Fingal, they actually mark different shore lines of a vast ancient loch created by glacial ice. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot... #Scotland #GlenRoy #Lochaber

Make it make sense.

If you haven't already please add your name to the petition calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Sottish Government to amend Section 16 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to remove the power to grant licences for taking Gannets on Sula Sgeir petitions.parliament.scot/petitions/PE...

#NowPlaying The Sisters of Mercy - "Vision Thing" What an album. So much fun. The title track and opener is a massive statement. "One blinding flash of sense Just like the president's" makes me laugh every time. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

#NowPlaying The Sisters of Mercy - "Temple of Love (Extended)" Simply the best Sisters song. In a class of its own. Some people sneer, but they really were a helluva band. youtu.be/evu3I0ZoERc...

Gods, the MusicBrainz search is godawful. I can't even get it to sort the results into date order to make it easier to find what I'm looking for. But nope.

Oop, another one off to blockoland.

#NowPlaying Cosey Fanni Tutti - "TUTTI" Fantastic album from @coseyfannitutti.bsky.social. Bought it on the day of release, and it really is a prize. Tutti is one of the most important players in electronic music over the decades, and this album is a great indication of why youtu.be/cmKaIXbD9HI...

The extent of my vocal interaction with my computer/smartphone is swearing a blue streak at them when they do something wrong. Which, by the way, given that Windows has been developing for over 30 years, is pretty shite. You'd think they would have ironed out all the kinks by now.

Kurwa mać jebana. Windoze has reset all my default apps *again*. This is so tedious, kurwa.

It's an impressive list of shitty things they've done to us in pretty short order. At least we can say that they're consistent, I suppose.

Interesting that the incidence of times I'm blocked increases massively when I'm asking for help. I guess some people are just chuje jebane, and that's that.

#DavidsMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge Day 8 - Pick a song that is in some way related to the previous day's Carter Tutti Void - "V1" The Throbbing Gristle duo team up with Factory Floor's Nik Colk Void. Dark electronica, and very, very fine. youtu.be/ETvOE3JpRFs...

#NowPlaying The Sisters Of Mercy - "Floodland" Was always a big fan of the Sisters, although that was ever a non-trendy proposition. They were always supremely good at what they do, and Eldritch's lyrics were always entertaining. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Morning all. #KrakówSmog 4°C Showers Pollution 94%

We've reached our goal, thank you all so much, but we've been advised to keep the crowfunder running as vets' bills can rapidly spiral.

All the content warnings here. I don’t know how any parent can read this and not immediately lose their shit. I didn’t manage it

One thing I also like recently is "vibe-cycling". I.e just going on a cycle and turning down roads I'm unfamiliar with but I think will lead roughly to the direction I want to go.

#NowPlaying Grateful Dead - "Europe '72 Vol. 1 - Wembley Empire Pool, London, 7 April 1972" This whole tour basically has mythical status. I wanted to listen to this as it's the only British date. It really is very good. Here's the "Europe '72" album if you want a Best Of youtu.be/4ruqrW-t_SI...

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

#NowPlaying Jefferson Airplane - "Surrealistic Pillow" Yes, everybody knows it, at least "Plastic Fantastic Lover" and especially "White Rabbit", but when was the last time you actually listened to it? It's worth it. Iconic. youtu.be/KRjbjUR-0LE...

Just need everyone to Google the name "Rosalind Franklin" at this moment.

I am BEGGING people to put spaces in their mobile numbers. It's eleven digits in a row, would it kill you to do 01234 555 555 so people can parse it?!

The Gouda cheese market, which dates back to 1395 (when Gouda wasn’t the official market yet), showcases what cheese trading was like centuries ago. #cheese #news 🧀 #travel #gouda #history #tradition #localfood #netherlands #foodsky

Another language lesson, it has a ring to it.

Wow, thank you so much everyone. Both I and especially Marmite are really so grateful. We've reached our goal. Marmite goes in for her initial visit on Monday at 12:00 CET.

#NowPlaying The 13th Floor Elevators - "The Psychedlic Sounds of" One of the great psychedelic albums. And one of the first. If you don't know it, you really owe it to yourself to give it a listen. And if you do, well, it's high time to give it another spin. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Oh gosh, "one of the Great Cats of Bluesky". I must admit she hadn't thought of herself in those terms. We have a responsibility. As soon as Marmite starts feeling herself again, we'll post more photos. She's not really in the mood at the moment.

Marmite is one of the Great Cats Of Bluesky, and she's Robin's faithful companion. Let's see if we can help them out, eh?

I haven't been able to eat yet today. 😭

I'm terribly sorry, but I have to ask for your assistance again. Marmite, my cat, urgently needs vet visits, medicines, and a probable operation. I'm beside myself with worry at the moment. Any help in the form of donations or reposts would be most gratefully received. 4fund.com/pp2gmh

@polyhymnia.bsky.social Thank you so very much for your donation. Now at least I can start the process, which is a great relief.

@panny.bsky.social Thank you very much for your donation. That's really helpful.

Jeeeeeez that was stressful. My main email account just… stopped working. After over an hour of fiddling, it's finally going again.

Why are so many people fixated on "reality TV"? It is, and always has been, awful. "Big Brother" has a helluva lot to answer for. I mean, I guess you do you, but ugh, really?

It's only taken 15 years of me possessing a smartphone to discover that I can schedule DND for when I'm working. It's lovely, really lovely, to see those phonecalls being rejected with no input from me.

I've been on Metformin for a decade. This is an excellent additional excuse for not exercising. Suits me, sir!

Same here. I'm not Rob, or Robbie, or Rab, or, gawds help us, Robinek. Just plain Robin. If people can't do it with names, it's perhaps no fucking wonder that they can't do it with pronouns.
