I have pounded my breasts and shall beat my egg. I feel this recipe encourages violence against women 🤣

Geek. Reformed American in the UK. Love folk music, Terry Pratchett and all things sci-fi & fantasy. Dislike bigots and jerks - which is a venn diagram with a fair amount of crossover. I'm paid to do data marketing. Someone has to.
So despite the fact I cannot sing for toffee, I did a thing with @thelongestjohns.bsky.social - Randy Dandy Oh. I'm the deranged looking women at the top of this screenshot, between the woman with the blue headscarf and the guy with the tankard. Thank you all involved!
Before anyone panics, yes, FB is down (along, I believe, with Insta, but Whatsapp seems ok). This is your GenX public service announcement. #Facebookdown #Facebook etc
For anyone who cares - it isn't just you, #Facebook (along with Meta's other products) is indeed down. #Facebookdown #metadown downforeveryoneorjustme.com/facebook#rec...
Is Facebook down? Live status and problems past 24 hours
Live problems for Facebook. Error received? Down? Slow? Check what is going on.

Scarily appropriate. Guess what I'm doing today?
Have a break. Have a kitty cat. (My brother's ragdoll queen)
Look what I found in the wild @jayforeman.bsky.social @markcooperjones.bsky.social! At Quinns Bookshop, Market Harborough
The Third Sock "Mabel! I'm missing a sock! Again! That damned dryer!" Mabel sighed, and fed the third sock to Grdkoogh. The dryer god must be fed. #flashfiction #socks #microfiction
Getting triggy with it with Matt Parker, the stand up mathematician. Twas a great evening!
Today I watched the first two episodes of Small Prophets. It's lovely. But despite what Wiki says, it's definitely not a sit-com - at least not in the traditional sense.
This was in my spam folder. An offer you cannot refuse. Or ... something?!
This is very cool. I'm apparently an American progressive. Ish. I have so few followers and follow so few, it doesn't have much to work with for me. Where do you land?
I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail
Dear hair care bottle manufacturers and printers - please label your bottles in BIG LETTERS - SHAMPOO...or...CONDITIONER. Some of us require reading glasses which (funnily enough) we don't wear in the shower. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
OK, the D&D session with @timmaidment.com was a couple of days ago, but I do feel I should share this most excellent t-shirt Tim gave me for Christmas. He knows me so well.
Goodness I'm tired - a cold, bad napping habit and jetlag will do that to you, I guess.
Would you expect me to wear any other Christmas jumper?
You can't be British without reacting to the first snow of the season with amazement. It's as if we've never seen snow before. Thus ends today's weather update.
So this is what I did last night with @timmaidment.com - huge fun - and it was a joy to introduce an #ignobel virgin to that wonderful tradition. timmaidment.com/2025/11/01/a...
An Ig Nobel Night Out
After…a much longer break in writing than I intended, we’re back in the room. Life has just been very busy, and if nothing else it’s given material to write about down the road. H…

@jayforeman.bsky.social and @markcooperjones.bsky.social...my copy came but it's upside down. Can you come and fix it please?
