If you'd like something even more dangerous, our archive is so old that we don't use these fancy modern rolling stacks. Ours are attached to a motorised chain that runs the length of the room. This means sometimes they like to move by themselves just a little, enough to keep you on edge.

There's a heartwarming story, in @seamas.bsky.social ' best-selling memoir "Did Ye Hear Mammy Died?" (available in all good, and many mediocre, bookshops) where Séamas is forgotten at Mass, and we only realised we'd lost him because we'd also lost another sibling, who we returned to collect.

Here’s the latest stop motion animation from my Tiny Angry Witch team. (I’m the writer, I can’t take credit for the animating!) It’s one of our longest, and it nearly drove us all mad, but we’re really proud of getting it made! 1 x Tiny Angry Witch 1 x broom No AI

And now a discussion and conversion chart for linear measurement. Here the key measure is a Thorburn, which is 64.2 m (70'8.5") long, named for Paul Thorburn's world record successful penalty kick for Wales v Scotland in 1986

Here's another conversion chart: 1 Wales = 20,782 km2 1 Kilowales = 20,782,000 km2 1 Megawales = 20,782,000,000 km2 The world has only 510,072,000 km2 surface area in total (land and sea) which is about 24.5 Kilowales, so the Megawales is really only used for planetary science

This is why they wouldn't let me into the history club: I did not have the spreadsheet prowess to sort all those hundreds of thousands of facts properly.

"History involves sorting and organizing hundreds of thousands of facts" I remain astounded by how loud and wrong people are about what history actually is.

Drawing something on the table and ‘bringing it to life’. A sketchy sketch, a fun idea. Maybe return to it with more time / detail, but I’m happy with it as it is… Yes, it’s a real subject, someone may guess the aircraft type, and if they’re clever, the kit, too. #drawingaugust #drawingaugust2026

Dreamt that I bought a t-shirt for the first day of classes that says “Maybe WE are the Sea Peoples” and honestly need to make this happen.

The islanders are now using ChatGPT to tell them which beaches they can use to avoid the shark, but obviously chat keeps being wrong and they keep getting eaten The shark wins, the end
