Okay Bluesky, this is the greatest thing I have ever made and now it’s here for you. Mr Blobby in the Virtual Insanity video.
If you were 80 years old and you woke up in your 30yo body, your aches and pains gone, your loved one asleep next to you, little hands tugging at the duvet, REMEMBER THE RULES:

No bright lights.
Do not get wet.
Don’t feed after midnight.

It’s that simple, guys.

Me working in IT: have you tried relighting the candles and offering the dark one your immortal soul? Aha, aha… okay, I’m going to take over your screen for a second. If you could just check the lines of the pentagram, save and close excel and ensure there’s fresh blood on the mouse.

Always think I’d want to be a Traitor if I was on it but in reality an extra hour in bed is so appealing these days it’s faithful all the way.

Looks like the Toddler is about to enter the Upside Down. Vecna better like hearing the Winnie the Pooh theme 900 times a day.

Can’t believe this has led to this, what is wrong with me??

So, for the last 2 1/2 years I’ve had a job making silly stuff for LEGO. It was GREAT, coincided with my son being born and was essentially the first “real” full time job I’ve had in over a decade.

I’m now back looking for stuff. Thought I’d put it out here. Never know what it’ll lead to. 🤷‍♂️

For whatever reason this is doing the rounds again. Have a giggle everyone.
What a weird name for a dog. But sorry for their loss.

Just give it a second before walking over everyone. We’ve shot 2025 in the face, but everything I know from films says it’ll pop back up for one last scare.

In your face 2025!!!!

Getting older means getting Happy New Year wishes earlier and earlier. Anyway should have sent this hours ago. Happy New Year everyone.

Toddler just ran up to my wife and said “Happy New Year” then instantly farted. Perfect timing. No notes. 😂

It has been The Onion's best year since we broke Watergate and subsequently, personally had Richard Nixon removed from office.

I'm going to share some personal favorite stories in this thread.

Me, having all year to break the twelve month curse from last new year, looking at the clock with a big sigh “right I really need to finish this now”.

Okay body, today’s gonna be tough. We have a lot of chocolate to get through so we can start the new year right. You’re gonna say no more. You’re gonna wanna quit. You’re gonna see things that aren’t really there. But goddamit you’re the only one who can get the job done.

UK Stranger Things. The exact same plot but it’s five seasons of them spitting in Adidas tracksuits and telling upside down things to fuck off.

Have taught my toddler the following attacks:

Tickle
Cuddle
Ba-Ba-Boom
Fire Breath

Toddler parenting CAN also be like Pokémon training if you work hard enough. The toughest part is finding other parents willing to battle you.
