My message to my bladder as I sit down for a 3 hour movie.

“Listen. Farage is in there. Don’t mention the 5 million quid. I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it alright.”
Blazed through the previous book I was reading, largely thanks to last week's heatwave closing the school for half the week, so straight onto another newish title. #NewBookDay #SydneyJShields
Im curious, is #Zuckerberg trying to suck up to #Trump more than usual lately? Noticed a sudden rise of republican and 'official' white house accounts suddenly being pushed onto my facebook feed, despite regularly using the 'see less of this' option on these types of account.
Rewatched #Superman last night on prep, and currently sat down ready to see #Supergirl on the big screen.
Been house-sitting for a few days, looking after my folks cat. Went onto #youtube, which wasnt connected to any profiles, and it was interesting to see that its no differant to facebook in pushing hate content to try and increase engagement. The amount of recommendations I saw for grifters,
Got a few days away from home, doing a little pet-sitting for the parents, and its the perfect timing for a new book to read. #NewBookDay #LaurieGilmore
Saw #BirdPhotography was trending, so figured I'd share these shots I got of a #GreatSpottedWoodpecker a couple of years ago when walking along the canals in my area. Was complete chance, as it was coming back and forth to feed chicks, whose chirping helped me find the spot it was hanging around.
So quite a few titles catching my eye during #StateOfPlay including more than a few surprises. (Even though it's not a series I got into, I didn't think we'd ever see a new Stunt Driver game!) Going to be a few busy months soon for gamers, going by the announced dates. My poor wallet is shaking.
Done with a trilogy thats been on my shelf for a while, so swapping over to some newer titles again. #NewBookDay #AliHazelwood
Had a day out at the games expo, now preparing for an evening of music at #BirminghamSymphonyHall Tonight, its 'movies and games in concert', so im not sure what to expect in terms of the tracks they'll choose.
Already too warm for playing games this morning, so going to find somewhere cooler, preferably with air con, and spend some time reading the final book of the Scythe trilogy. #NewBookDay #NealShusterman
Exactly this. Unsurprising the double standards and excuses people have to make, simply because grown men and women are able to enjoy things they are desperate for everyone to hate, in spite of how often they are just as vocal and critical about the issues with Disney.

Finally decided to request my first commission for one of my D&D characters. With thanks to @fannd.bsky.social for drawing this piece of Melna, my half-orc ranger. #DND #ArtCommission
Just had my commission done by Fannd, great communication and she did a great job translating my notes and references into a full piece. Looking forward to future works!
fannd ✧ on hiatus@fannd.bsky.social · 3mo agoCome to me for a commission — I'll draw your character in the best possible light 🖤
Got through a number of newer books, taking a break to read a trilogy that has been sat waiting on my shelves for a few years. #NewBookDay #NealShusterman
Another day, another book. Curious to see where things will go after the first book caught my attention. #NewBookDay #SaaraEl-Arifi
Lol, ai bro pushes obvious lie to whine about people with brains he refuses to listen to.
Corey Atad@coreyatad.com · 4mo agomade this point before, and it’s one the fanatical anti-AI luddites on Bluesky should reckon with
Taking a break from reading through the old backlog to read a few recent sequels to stories ive enjoyed. #NewBookDay #HannahNicoleMaehrer
Time to finally read The Shepards Crown, some 10 years after I bought it. When the news came out about Terry's death, it stopped me from reading his books for so long, because I wasn't ready to accept this was the end of the Discworld series. #NewBookDay #TerryPratchett
Seeing 'MJF Tribute' trending, and having a sudden panic, thinking "What's happened to Michael?" Thankfully not about Michael J Fox, but talking about wrestler MJF and his recent PPV match.
