This week, I'm going to get way out of my comfort zone and promote the hell out of my podcast. I'm so proud of the work we are doing, and I want as many people as possible to know it exists. So I'll begin here: wilwheaton.net/podcast/

It’s Storytime with Wil Wheaton

You may recognize Wil Wheaton’s name from his acting work in television shows like The Big Bang Theory, Leverage, and Star Trek: The Next Generation, or 1985’s timeless classic, Stand B…

THREAD. My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments. I've collected his work here...

🕯️How fantastic to see the Candlelighters Supportive Care Research Centre, led by our very own @drbobphillips.bsky.social, putting patients at the heart of research; improving the experience and outcomes of children undergoing cancer treatment. Read more here: www.york.ac.uk/news-and-eve...

Damn. RIP the absolute titan of British acting that was Prunella Scales. I wrote this Fawlty Towers short story a while back as a tribute to her performance in it. Shared in her memory.

What would you call the amazing bobbly bits of this hairstyle… poll in the comments to count via “likes”?

3 persistent symptoms, 3 GP visits or 3 weeks of unexplained symptoms? We want #HealthcareProfessionals to consider: 'Could it be cancer?' #ChildCancerSmart Dissemination Lead, @drbobphillips.bsky.social, explains more about our evidence-based approach. 🔗 bit.ly/4lno0Kh

I still don't understand how ostensible experts are saying we're only a few years away from true AGI (or even superintelligence). Analytical AI/ML is ultimately just statistical modeling and analysis, and generative AI is just auto-correct amped up a bunch.

Today, we’re launching #ChildCancerSmart alongside campaign ambassador @dramirkhangp.bsky.social - an evidence-based public and professional awareness campaign to improve #EarlyDiagnosis of cancer in children and teenagers aged up to 18 🩵🎗️ Find out more at cclg.org.uk/childcancers...

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

Before Capture Mateo felt sad whenever he saw a charity shop. He hated that people cared about other things but that no-one cared enough to try to help save his sister. Through Capture Mateo feels as though he can make a difference. He feels less sad because he knows others care.
