I remember watching a low quality rip of this song on YouTube in 2006, before a Japanese Studies class at University, and absolutely losing my mind at the 4-minute (and INCREDIBLE) guitar solo duel they added into the middle. Do yourself a favour and listen to it!
(the song is called みかんのうた!)

I think it's fair to say this is one of maybe two times where I have felt like I'm actually good at games, and I am now very done with this nightmarishly hard game (poison Cogfly spam ftw) 💪💪💪

No official Shocktober this year, but we're marking the start of Spooky Season with the original RINGU (which I don't think I've actually watched before!)

My entire trip there was like a big warm hug (despite the massive snow drifts) and I want to go back so badly!

We put the first episode of Goodness Gracious Me on for a comfort watch and got to the "going for an English" sketch, at which point I said "wait, hold on... is that waiter @neilnewbon.bsky.social?"

First full (ish) practice in almost 10 years with the Northern Oak crew last night and it's amazing how quickly things come back to you! #Reunited

Today I took a load of home-baked goods into the office for a fundraising bakesale/tombola as part of the Citizen's Advice fundraising we're doing - pistachio rocky road, chocolate orange brownies and orange & lemon loaf cake. Sold out of all of them, got rave reviews, and in total we raised £540!

I've been pouring hours into Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, doing my usual thing of wrapping up all the sidequests before the end - and I truly appreciate the devs' commitment to letting you completely break the game. 127 million damage in one hit on the ultra-hard secret boss, chef's kiss!

Cragside today - might have been built by the first international arms dealer (Lord Armstrong), but it's a very cool place with some beautiful sights!

They had cases full of ultra-rare and pricey first editions, including this from 1685 (!!) which blew my damn mind, this is from the Monmouth Rebellion FFS:

Doing a 10K training run this morning was a good idea until it started absolutely pissing it down halfway through 🥲 Also turns out my planned route (all the way out to the reservoir and back) isn't quite 10K so that's annoying, I'll need to throw an extra loop in somewhere...

Imagine trying to imply that this creature has ever done anything wrong in his whole, entire life? Completely innocent, of all things
