Hey there! I thought I would never meet the one person who like the ending..

It’s good to know that you exist in real life. Or do you?

If we can add Street Fighter characters to Streets of Rage on an MD cart, then we most certainly can achieve this...surely.

The demand might not be as big, but I know there has to be a way to get this to happen.

Attention Modders!

One for all the Mega Drive 3 button fans!

I know this is a long shot, but it's a shot worth taking.

In case you're wondering...

it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans.

And nobody has been fired...

Don't stop talking about SignalGate

Which is why billionaires should not exist. By law. The excess should go back to the people who made it possible. The dividend Alaskans get, because of the oil in Alaska, belongs to all the citizens of Alaska. As citizens of the world we all deserve a billionaire dividend for making them possible!

The market for slightly shouty middle aged men in cycling media is saturated. Imagine how much better it could be with more female voices?

At least 50 journalists in the press room at Gent-Wevelgem and I am the only woman. How is this STILL the case? It's 2025, I have so many female colleagues, women who have been apparently paving the way for YEARS, but it's just not changing

Mitch McConnell is a heartless bastard who will rot in hell. He corrupted our Supreme Court and gave tRump a boost to set him on the path to where he is. So he’s no hero. He is less than a zero.

I certainly enjoyed reading this. Perhaps there are lessons to be learned on this side of the Atlantic?

Sorry Magic and Taxes is late today. To make up for it, this is my favourite one I've drawn yet.

Maria holds her wand aloft. Beams of light spread from her wand as it extends. She says "it's time... to clean the patio." And then she uses the magic from her wand to blow the leaves away and then wash the patio down. Her cat says "you shouldn't really use magic for chores." Maria retorts "as you're a cat, you shouldn't really talk."

YoungOnes charges gig workers 4.8% of their earnings to be paid in one minute or 2.9% to be paid in three days. If they decline, they typically have to wait 30 days. Previously the workers were paid in three days, without a charge www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Still can't ride currently, so no new content for a while now. Time to raid the archives for some favourite riding selfies to get things started on the new platform.

Fish-eye low angle image in high contrast black and white of a mountain biker riding through an autumnal woodland. Black and white image of a mountain biker riding off a wooden ramp. The image is shot from below, giving an unusual viewpoint and creating an abstract background from the woodland trees around the rider. Wide angle black and white image of a mountain biker dropping in to a steep chute surrounded by trees. Black and white image of a mountain biker riding off a small drop in some woodland. The rider is facing directly towards the camera, making a strong silhouette against the lighter sky showing through the trees.

I’m fed up with people pointing out all the mistakes in my poetry so I’ve written them this poem; it’s called ‘Pedant’s’.
Pedant’s   Foot soldiers in the War on Error, They’re here to save us from ourselves, With Fowler’s Modern English Usage (first edition, nineteen twelve).   They scrutinise each word we write For typos, gaffes, et cetera, Correcting all the dumb mistakes To make our grammar betterer.   They sigh and tut and tell us off For the rules we have forsaken And chart this nation’s steep decline By the care we should of taken.   Custodians of the King’s English, They merely serve to keep it pure And restrict, they hope, the ignorant To three mistakes or less.   And in doing so, they hold no fear they will deprive a thing of life: for it’s not important what is said, what matters is that its right.   Brian Bilton

Worth travelling across the old Severn Bridge to see this wonderful Gallipoli relic in Chepstow. Commemorates the Victoria Cross action of local man, Able Seaman Bill Williams R.F.R. during the River Clyde landings at V Beach, Seddul Bahr.

Frisbee Frisbee whizzing through the air, above our heads, over the sand, into the water, onto the waves, out to sea. You cried a lot that day. Frisbee was a lovely dog. Brian Bilston

Today’s poem is called ‘Roles’.
Roles    He never got to play  the part of Joseph;  he was one of those kids  who no one noticed.    The type barely seen and more rarely heard, not a Herod or Innkeeper, no Second Shepherd. He never got to wear  the crown of a king  or the wings of an angel (no one knew he could sing).    No, instead he would be Brown Cow Number Four, A Rock or A Bauble, The Stable Door.    And now – forty years on –   it still made him wince,  for it seemed that his life  hadn’t changed that much since.  Brian Bilston
