Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Saw an exhibition on the occult at The Vault in Waterloo and left with the feeling that it could have been a PowerPoint.

In an era filled with tech dipshits who never developed emotionally past the age of 13 & use their wealth to become odious monsters ...

... listen to Steve Wozniak.

Just played (and won!) my first game of Warhammer. My brave Iron Jaws kicked some Chaos Dwarf butt 🧡

Entitled to lower bills.

Entitled to a liveable planet.

Entitled to make hope normal again.

Know your entitlement. Know our collective power.

The reason the headline is "doom!" is because when you see what's already been done, you see that we can do more,
which means things can get better,
which means rich people's "it's over, no stopping this, might as well let us do what we want" manipulation might stop working. Can't have that.

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

Project Hanuman is here. I hope you'll take a look as I think it's a pretty good space opera - no hero's journey here - this is about community, how we build back better and, of course, mind bending space battles in sentient ships.

Also, on the subject of women not liking science fiction, you can bite me. Mary Shelly invented the genre, and women have ALWAYS been here.

Every year I forget how overstimulating fireworks night is for me and how terrifying it is for the dogs. I also forget that it lasts all week.
