[looks at everything labour have done recently, looks at the state of the legal system, looks at recent court rulings on trans issues] ... Is it really that startling? Really the only surprise to me is that the percentage isn't higher
Latest · 23 October 2025 Survey shows 91% of trans people distrust labour YouGov poll reveals a startling lack of trust in Labour, judges, the police and legal system

Initial thoughts on Bye Sweet Carole from playing a bit last night.
- Hot damn this game is beautiful. The animation & storytelling is reminiscent of Don Bluth's more iconic work & is mostly fluid
- the controls can be a little finicky but overall the movement isn't bad
- the plot is intriguing

There's nothing that brightens my day quite like a weird little guy and to have, at 21:00 on a day when I left work early due to illness, have received my @rossydoesdrawings.bsky.social Kickstarter reward has really given me some pep. Look at these wonderful little goobers!

This is Minty, my self care tamagotchi. I'm not very good at taking care of myself unless someone else is reliant on my doing so. I'm working on that in therapy, but in the meantime, this little goober makes sure I eat, take my meds etc. each day. Because if I don't, they don't get any exercise 1/2

Monster Care Sim calling me out for my online shopping habits
a huge array of differently sized shipping boxes are stacked in a haphazard mostly toppled pyramid outside of a shop. They spill out into the road and some defy gravity as they're wedged against other boxes

I don't know why there's a little penguin in the chicken dipper freezer at my local Asda, but it's fun to make up stories as to how they got there...
A small plush penguin toy sits on the 2nd from top shelf of an enclosed freezer in Asda. It is surrounded on all sides by various Birdseye chicken products

for anyone wondering - here's what my first attempt looked like
A blue radial patterned bowl with 14 takoyaki (japanese octopus balls) in. Drizzled on top is a generous helping of Bulldog Sauce and Kewpie Mayo as well as some seaweed powder and bonito flakes. Many of the takoyaki are visibly malformed (not spherical) and 2 of them are very clearly burned on the visible side

It's a really important day in nerd culture today so I'm wearing a thematically appropriate shirt.... What? It's the anniversary of Pigmon's death today... Oh! Yeah, I suppose Silksong is dropping today too...

An Orgynizer guest card for HobbyTan. Traits are Furry, Energetic, Creative, Playful, Safeword is Mothman. There is then a list of requests that form the logic for the level's puzzle which are as follows: - I'm drawn to all things smooth - Activities are underestimated, I would definitely be down for something planned - vetoing chit-chatting if it's in the library. - If this is pineapple pizza again... - Need a guest with exactly 3 traits. below that in a different colour, there is text relating to the cameo: A cameo granted through The Trevor Project donation.

I'm Tan, I'm primarily a pixel artist and mini painter, but I like to dabble in all sorts :)

17. Favourite antagonist.
This was VERY tough but at the end of the day there was only one right choice. An antagonist that I love to hate so much that it was a part of my personality for a while... Zote the (not so) mighty from Hollow Knight.

Thanks to @jocat.net and @makeship.bsky.social I am now a cute little cat boy (but also we're in the middle of a heatwave so now I've tried it on, it's going on the hook until the sun stops trying to kill me)

15. Game I'm plating right now
Tiny Garden by @aonorte.com - a lovely little compact doll gardening puzzle game that I backed on kickstarter - it's been perfect post-work wind down material for me (I've just cleared the garden ready for my next puzzle, hance no plants)
