Tom Cox has a way with words. I recommend his book "Everything Will Swallow You"! (But check out his Account first for free International shipping and dont give money to Jeff)
Tom Cox@dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · last yr.Isn’t it amazing the way life can seem too short, and intrinsically magical, yet at the same time feel like a long, uphill road, potholed with fuckwits?

This so cool! Not only am i a sucker for a good book Deal, but fragments (old bindings) are a treasure.
never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.

JKR and her new org apparently helped get the new Amnesty International report on how TERF organizations destroy lives taken down from their site. Well, guess what? The Streisand Effect is real. Here's the entire report in a thread. Read it. Share it.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 2mo agoAmnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
I love Folklore (the original fantasy genre) and it is fascinating how many times the trans homies Pop up. Here, in an unkrainian folktale. Thread broke, but bellow is the lovely D&D-style retelling/Translation.
Aurelia Verity @aureliaverity.bsky.social · 2mo agoA girl named Olena is born into a poor family. She and her two brothers are very close. When they become of age brothers are conscripted into the king’s army and taken away. Olena misses them so much she cuts off her hair, puts on men’s clothing and volunteers for the army to try and find them.
Zank yu for travelink wiz Deutsche Bahn. Long gone is the efficient punctuality of german rail from the 90s. It was murdered by decades of austerity measures. Thanks, CDU! My train was canceled at the last Minute. Happily, that freed me up to look for an alternative and jump on sth. Fester.
TGIF ! We made it. I got off work early, to collect the 4th book of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series from the post Shop. I got a platter of chicken, a bottle of red, and strawberry ice cream. It's gonna be 🔥

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines
Man, my inner sci-fi nerd is at the sci-fi Buffet just stuffing his face this year. These are all great, btw, but come with the following warning: -May cause Addi(c)tion -Part of a series of 5 or more books Please check TBR pile before purchase. Titles in the Alt text. 😁🖖

Shannon Stamey@wsstamey.bsky.social · 3mo ago@thewordshaker.bsky.social I’m sorry this sketch has taken so long, but it’s finally done. I’ll add some extras for the wait and get it in the mail Monday. Thanks a ton for your patience and support. I hope you like it. Oil, pencil and marker on Canson toned paper. 11”x14”.
Hello. The moment you gate educational videos behind a paywall, a massive wall of bureaucracy goes up. Teachers have to beg administrators for budgets, companies have to wine-and-dine school boards, millions of students get locked out, and people get forced into using material they don't like.
Matt Dinniman isnt on BSky, so let me shout it into the void: I am on book 2 of his Dungeon Crawler Carl series, and i catch myself saving up smoke Breaks. This is so i can extend Lunch break by 10 minutes and read more. In Accounting culture, this is known as "a good sign your book ROCKS". 🤓🖖
Yeah, April Fools sucks, but at least we got dropped a fresh Invincible episode. (Check ALT text) #NoSpoilers I think @gailsimone.bsky.social was right - the personal life is super important to our POV on a superhero. And #Invincible excells at that! Happy trails!
well but have you considered that one time people on bluesky were very rude about a journalist who is my friend?
Hi! I don't think Toho has a bsky so I'll post it - my first commissioned work for all the official Godzilla channels and I handmade everything that isn't a toy. Enjoy xo
Das ist super spannend. Und John Hodgson nun mein Held. (Fußnoten, nix is besser als ellenlange Fußnoten. Screw endnotes.)
John Bull@garius.bsky.social · 3y agoIf you ask someone today to name the builder of Hadrian's Wall, they would give you a funny look. But historical memory is odd, and right up to the 1800s we forgot who built it. Until in 1840 John Hodgson, an obscure Northumbrian clergyman, published the LONGEST footnote in history... 1/22
