Played D&D last night, and a friend gave me an early Christmas present: a flintlock pirate pistol that my character in-game uses as a spellcasting focus. Safe to say, the novelty has not worn off! #ttrpg #d&d

Mo Salah scores a penalty! [2-0 against Man City]

Definitely been inspired to create some more art since joining BlueSky and following so many unique artists. A work in progress (not finished!)of Mo Salah, inspired in part by this weekend's big big game 👀 🇪🇬👑 #lfc #wip #art #redsky #promosky

Too many to name, but gothic horror / eerieness in my star wars? Yes, please. A wound in the force who hungered so much it that he grew beyond mortal form. A manifestation of the devastation caused by the Exile in KOTOR 2.

Quote with a Star Wars character you're thankful for...

There are many stories behind the choices, mainly heroic performances in nuzlockes. Well, that, and Wooloo being a meme pokemon. As if Hop brought out Wooloo against end-game boss Eternatus. I used this to make mine: pk-diagram.pages.dev

My Spotify Wrapped is going to be 100 nursery songs this year, all from the playlist I use during bedtime with my son. I know it was a good year for female artists, and Kendrick and Drake beefed - and that's about it. Still, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is a banger, right? Is #musicsky a thing?

I sometimes worry about how sporadic I am - I write, I draw, I like to spread my creativity out. And that is okay - it's the self-expression and the process, which is the important part. Elaine is right!
*sigh*

Anyway, just create. Write shit, draw shit, build whatever you want, that's the important part.

There's no be-all end-all formula for the Perfect Work.

Just be YOU. No one can ever create what YOU create b/c it's you making it, and you are the only you.

Trying not to lose my head. If we win the game against City at the weekend, yeah, my head's gone... #redsky
I pray for you that today you will enjoy something as purely as I have enjoyed watching Real Madrid lose to Liverpool Football Club.

My (nearly) 2 year old has all the confidence of a 5 year old but with little ability to verbally communicate his feelings, no survival instinct, and a willingness to throw himself at everything. I'm sure he'll be an amazing human, but at the moment he's a hurricane of feeling and intention

Touched down for a much-needed holiday to warmer climes whilst it gets colder at home. Looking forward to getting some reading and writing done #writingcommunity #BookSky

Day 21 of posting cool mushrooms every day:

The Bleeding Tooth fungus (Hydnellum peckii) has both teeth on its underside and "blood" on its top!

The "blood" is extracellular fluid, which is squeezed out when the fungus absorbs water, increasing pressure until the red fluid is squeezed out!

So far, BlueSky genuinely feels like the early days of the social media boom, where communities and pockets of people are emerging in real-time and through calm dialogue. Not to mention, I'm enjoying interacting with people - real-life maybe hopefully please let you all be actual people on here.

With £72m, you could feed 23,000 UK families for an entire year. But no, much more important to wheel a privileged old fella around in a gold carriage and stage a weird ceremony for stolen wealth and outdated power. 👑 #CostOfLivingCrisis

Am I allowed to be excited that Spurs are beating City yet? I've seen this script too many times... even though Spurs tend to have a good record #redsky

So, I've got a relatively chill holiday coming up in the next few days. I'm looking for book recommendations. At the moment, the top of my TBR list is Gene Wolfe's The Book of the New Sun series. Does anyone have any other recommendations? All welcome. #BookSky #writingcommunity 🪐📚

Two rival countries join Bluesky and make peace with a starter pact.

Didn't know this discourse existed around audiobooks not "counting" but completely agree with this take. The oral tradition of storytelling precedes publishing #BookSky
In case you need reminding.
The Iliad and the Odyssey were audiobooks first.
Audiobook= reading.

Things I've learned on #BlueSky in my first 12 hours:
🍄 The fungal kingdom is incredibly diverse
🌍 the Hubble telescope has some breathtaking shots of space
⚔️Gladiator 2 is comparable to the Star Wars prequels (yikes)

You're up next, #BookSky, I'm excited to get some book recommendations.
