Technical author/carer, books (sf/f/h), astronomy, beer/homebrew, weirdness, Rush (the band) fan. #RejoinEU #MaskUp. No fascists or #AISlop. Banner picture is my book hoard. "Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see." Slave to my tsundoko.
He's filled his nappy with shit?
So, re-watching 'The Lost Boys'. Where are fun films like that in modern mainstream cinema?
TBF, he looks like #BorisJohnson. Although I'm sure that BJ isn't doubly incontinent.
Seriously, what is going on with Trumpโs rear end here? It looks like he has some sort of contraption back there
Contestants on #CDWM talking about auras and other pseudoscientic bullshit. This is why I could never compete in it. I'd just go batshit and storm out.
Laughing at Man. City being humiliated by the Gooners.
Obviously all this fascist #AISlop art from the #WhiteHouse isn't being directly approved by Trump. The bastards behind it need to be held to account, too. Nuremberg Trials for all!
Back when #BBCNews weren't fascist enablers.
BBCโs coverage of Reformโs welfare plans is frankly bizarre. Headlines in Ten, leading on some radio networks. Reform are not even the official opposition and the plans have less credibility than Count Binface. Will BBC News do the same for Lib Dem and Greens policy two years out from an election?
TBF, 'cli-fi' (urgh) has existed for decades. Most people are only catching up now. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/a...
โIt is not only a future certainty โ the disaster is already hereโ: why we need climate fiction
As wildfires rage across Europe and Britain swelters through its hottest summer on record, literary fiction has a vital role to play in capturing the severe consequences of climate crisis

Strong Palestine protest vibes here. Expect more of this stuff around the world. #AISlop www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
The first anti-AI protester to be jailed has a message for OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta: โRegain your humanityโ
Wynd Kaufman, 69, chained and locked the front doors of OpenAIโs headquarters last year with members of StopAI

Weird vibe in this edition of 'Couples #CDWM' with other contestants struggling with the trans couple. ๐
Have to say that I'm impressed by Danny O'Donoghue from The Script on #SundayBrunch talking about #AISlop, etc.
Ah, you've spoiled the magic. Actually, that's not really true, is it? Or, you could use non-toxic paint for him to add a pawprint. ๐พ
My cat doesn't actually sign cards to family and friends. I sign it for him because he can't actually write at all.
So... over a month after my CT scan for a potential cancer diagnosis and still no news. I'm either cool, or rotting beyond redemption. ๐คท
Genuinely confused about how anyone supports the royals these days. Yeah, lick those boots, peasants. #AbolishTheMonarchy
Ah, the royals fucking us over, yet again. #AbolishTheMonarchy www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
Royal estates rent out homes that fail to meet legal energy efficiency standards
Exclusive: More than 100 homes on King Charles and Prince Williamโs inherited estates have EPC ratings of F or G

Watching 'Supertramp Paris 1979'. Sorry, Tony.
A school friend and I saw Supertramp at Olympia in 1983, the same month that Bowie played MK Bowl. Sorry, Dave, but Supertramp rocked. ๐
Is there a bigger cunt in the world than #ElonMusk? Other than #DonaldTrump, #NigelFarage, etc.?
Never thought of myself as a Luddite (and, of course, the Luddites were much misunderstood), but... time to throw some digital sabots.
