Shoddy fae contrivance. Brambles and feathers and fragments of bone. A semi-seelie stand-in.

Not an author. Not an artist. Not an anything, really.

Given the chain that led directly from Gamergate, incel and manosphere culture to MAGA Nazism, you'll forgive me if I experience a reflexive negative judgment of you that I have to consciously suppress when you refer to people as "normies".

Oh my dear Neptune.

Not only is the man so helplessly bereft of dignity and decorum, so fragile and desperately conscious of his own abject inadequacy, that he's ordered a new class of ship named after himself, NOT ONLY THAT...

But it's a BATTLESHIP. 🤦‍♀️

If I'm asked why I, a Brit, talk as though America is my country, it's not entirely selfless.

It's because I'm a Brit. And where America goes, Britain follows. America goes to war, we follow. If America rolls over for dictatorship, so, soon enough, will we. Reform Ltd is our MAGA, Farage our Trump.

Also, gods... *bless* you, @classicfm.com for interrupting me while I'm wrapping presents to tell me I'm doing "last-minute present wrapping".

This isn't last-minute! It's not the 25th yet! 🎁🎄

"Though it's been said many times, many ways..."

I wouldn't. You say it any way other than the prescribed "Merry Christmas", and the CoNsErVaTivEs will lose their absolute porcelain *shit*.

I think LED headlights are a good analogy for society.

They're clearly massively too bright. They are solely for the benefit of the user, who gets everything in front of him floodlit for miles—but there is no consideration, no regard, no quarter given, to any other poor sucker on the road.

It's interesting how, on UK radio news this morning covering recent acts of piracy and murder committed by the US military against Venezuela, Venezuela's government was referred to as 'the regime', while America's own unaccountable authoritarianism was 'the administration'.

I don't understand though. Why didn't you give it to someone special in the first place?

And if you thought you were doing, and you got tears anyway, how are you going to know that the someone special you giving it to this time is indeed someone special?

I don't really care to hunt for Ben Solo. But for those who seem to have developed an interest, I wish them all the best.

See you know you're in trouble when Reddit asks you to select topics you're interested in, gives you a whole barrel of them, and you can't find it in you to give enough of a shit to click on any of them.

It's been a long time since Labour could be described as a left-wing party.

But it still startles me how quickly it's become so openly comfortable with "conservative" grifter rhetoric.
Yet another crap video from another Labour MP (Josh Simons) attacking me and "lefties."

Showing us exactly who they are.

They serve only power & weath.

2026 - the year of people power.

When you put something down on a shelf and it falls off, that's annoying.

But when it does a whole rigmarole of skittering around and bouncing off other stuff on the way down *just to be ostentatious about how annoying it's being*, honestly I want to just burn it. Burn it all in fire and wrath.

Seriously, error messages are just insufferable now.

"Something went wrong"

Really? What? We used to get codes at least. And then we could google them. And they usually meant something technical we couldn't understand, but at least you felt like the program wasn't *assuming* you were dumb as frak.

Fuck's sake, America. Just *hold* the fort. You don't have to hold it *down*.

Featured in today's sale of Bandai-Namco games on Steam is the perplexingly titled 'Tales of Arise', featuring an exceedingly implausible gun clearly built along traditional anime lines of 'bigger will always mean more impressive'.

One day my update will have downloaded.

I like the part where it says "This is a 3 Gb download" and then as it approaches 3 Gb it suddenly expands to 7.

That's hardly a lot these days - my connection's just aggravatingly slow this morning. But, has there ever been an honest progress bar?

No, #Blizzard. I am not going to prepurchase your new class, or your new world expansion, or your new anything, because pre-purchasing is bullshit. When there's an actual product to buy I'll consider buying it - though I imagine it'll be massively overpriced again. Maybe if there's a sale?

Good start, Bluesky.

I can control my feed, apparently, so I can spend my time on the things I want to see. Lovely.

So I choose #books, #movies, #videogames, #nature, #photography, i.a.

"Here's your Discover feed!" says Bluesky, and drops me into a swamp of politics and culture wars. 🙄
