Can't sing, can't dance, can handle a sword a little.

Bought a pair of trashed Vivobarefoot Ra shoes off eBay for £20, spent a half hour bringing them back to life and am very pleased with the result.

At some point I’ll get around to getting them resoled, but for now they are good to wear.

This Labour government is proudly centrist, which is why it feels like the Cameronian Tories are back in power. People voted for change and instead got Osbourne Austerity V2.0.

Thank you, thank you, thank you @naomialderman.bsky.social for saving the end of the world - this is such brilliant and good news!

Not what I hoped for when Labour won the election…

If the King were to stop providing for him he’d most likely go the way of his great uncle Edward and follow the money all the way to become a media personality in Putin’s Russia and an even greater embarrassment to The Firm.

Sounds like I missed quite the day yesterday while I was travelling home from Spain. Hope you’re doing well today and that you can feel that this is a safe space.

Oh, and have a random photo of a Spanish mere cat because why not.

Especially the chap lugging the massively heavy Wireless Set No. 38…

Got to walk on an actual #RomanRoad today, which was nice…

I’m guessing this is modern (Victorian?) and possibly linked to mineral rights rather then being ancient but, hey, it’s still a stone and is still standing! #StandingStoneSunday

One of those days when it feels like we live at the end of the world, and not just over the water from Bristol! #Wales

I love the sound a pulse rifle makes - the exciting, staccato sound of futility!

Catachan.

Definitely a garden world!

The British Army leaving all their tanks, artillery and motor transport behind in 1940 meant that *everything* had to be improvised for the Home Guard and Regular Army so (see the terrifying Blacker Bombard) it became fashionable to mock them.

I miss imperial guard jump pack assault platoons - fun but useless!

I *really* miss beastmen assault platoons.

I just miss platoons.
