Things I’ve learned. Streaming Clocktower is *hard* and I respect people that do it well. You need to talk to and listen to up to 15 people, while also talking to and listening to a big chat. It’s a talent to do it well.

Dipped my toes into streaming Blood on the Clocktower. Didn’t tick the right tickyboxes to save it, but great games with brilliant friends. Will do it again! (Don’t expect to be big or make money, just have fun)

A reminder that "Alien observations" is an anagram of "Avi Loeb's insane rot"
Avi Loeb's calculations about 3I/ATLAS are 100% wrong because he has never understood that dust in the tail(s) responds to solar radiation pressure. Solar wind shapes the ion tail. But the radiation pressure is about 1000 times larger than the solar wind ram pressure, for particles that feel it.

I'm going to repost this a lot, even more after watching Streeting railing against striking doctors. Such a Labour approach 🙃

Also, and this really is me blowing my own trumpet here, This thread about my joke explanation stand-up set from Joel is fucking delightful. Joel is a man who has worked on some of my favourite comedy stuff and REALLY knows his comedy onions, so reading this thoughts on this is a genuine joy to me.
This is just great.
I've edited a video! Of some of my standup! Like you're supposed to when you're a comedian!
Please enjoy "My jokes are good, actually, and here are the reasons why".

Shares/fawning praise etc obviously appreciated x

Do you ever get the impression that the people making this stuff don't really have any meaningful connections with other human beings? They've seen it in movies and on TV but they've never experienced it so genAI nutraloaf feels satisfying to them because they don't know what real food tastes like
Nightmarish idea for a startup tbh

I'm not at all surprised that Epstein features in the Krauss files.

I really need to get to bed, but I just poked my head out the back door again. This is the view from my deck. All of this is looking south. When the geomagnetic storms are like this, the oval overshoots me and stretches into the US, which is why so many are seeing it tonight. #aurora

Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.

They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

All you need to know.

Sonia Sodha, Emily Maitlis, Helen Joyce and Hannah Barnes have all had their say in the media in the last 24 hours.
How many trans people have the BBC had on this week discussing the BBC's pro-trans bias?

Zero.

Living in a country with nationalised healthcare these prices are astonishing and nauseating, and that's before the utterly obscene rises.
I've been reposting everyone replying to this post with their own ACA (and sometimes employer!) price hikes. Feel free to add yours. There is some comfort in knowing you aren't alone and knowing we'll all be voting on this issue in a year.

Chuck Schumer should be chucked out. #chuckchuck
My ACA current plan is going from $385/mo to $821/mo.

'if you disagree with me then you must hate women and children' - @emily4mk.bsky.social

this isn't how you make an argument. it's how you emotionally manipulate ppl. it's typically a tactic of the far right.

This is a terrible take. The Online Safety Act is a deeply flawed piece of legislation, and it's a slur to say those of us who oppose it are not against violence against women and children.
Any party that wants to scrap the Online Safety Act is not on the side of women and children.

I had no idea Maitlis said this. Barmy
Some of us remember when Maitlis said that primary age school kids are having gender confirmation surgery. The BBC anti Trans bias goes back nearly a decade #BBCTransphobia
