Came home from pub trivia where we not only won overall, but also won two jugs of beer. Sat down to finish some work I needed to get done and my wife asked, in a tone like I had just sat behind the wheel: "whoa, are you okay to write?"

Married in a prison, party in the gallery. It was very Us.

I love a fossil that tells a story, and this one is a doozy www.sciencealert.com/epic-turduck...

Epic 'Turducken' Fossil Reveals Ancient Sea Monsters Devouring Each Other

Making a turducken – stuffing a chicken inside a duck, then stuffing that inside a turkey – seems like a recent Thanksgiving tradition, but paleontologists in Australia may have found the dinosaur-era...

Aww can I just do it anyway? Is it weird I find this stuff kinda fun?

A big bucket of popcorn, beer, and a shuffled playlist of 176 golden era Looney Tunes shorts on the projector in the loft makes for a solid Sunday night

New from me: T. rex hatchlings may have been smaller than cats and born by the dozen, according to new research. www.sciencealert.com/neglected-mu...

Jurassic Park was wrong.

Sam Neill is the rare celebrity death that brought me to actual tears. I watched Jurassic Park so many times as a kid he felt, as cliche as it sounds, like a father figure. More recently seeing him pop up on my social feeds, talking to animals, was a much needed balm. vt.tiktok.com/ZSX2bmKhC/

This knock-off Lego feels in very poor taste. I kinda love it.

Well that sure was the 4th or 5th best Toy Story

Larry David has such a unique brand of yelling that I can tell my wife is watching his new show from upstairs with my headphones on.

Loving this wedded bliss thing, which I assume means "the relief about not having to plan and organise a wedding anymore."

I'm not used to saying "wife" yet, but we've got plenty of time to practice.

For someone who's a ball of anxiety at the best of times, I'm surprising myself at how not nervous I am today, on my... wedding day? That can't be right

I vote we implement a new money system based on lives in Mario. Once you hit 99 (million dollars), every dollar you get over that just vanishes into the void (or goes to Luigi, who can't get past this level with only 2 lives)

You can buy cinema popcorn then take it home and watch a movie and they can't stop you

Sometimes you just have to cover the hard-hitting science news www.sciencealert.com/it-turns-out...

It Turns Out Birds Masturbate Too, And Evolution May Explain Why

Birds do it, all right.

There probably aren't many jobs where "do bees masturbate?" is a legitimate thing to Google during the work day

Okay there was more to Backrooms than I expected (which I guess is thematically fitting). Between that and Obsession we're eating good for low budget horror lately.

I've never been happier to be sick than 3 weeks before my wedding. That's some proactive thinking, body, let's get this out of the way now

I am at my bucks and 11pm drunk at 7:30pm

Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen was a weirdly reassuring watch a month out from my own wedding. Like, ok for all our stress it won't go THAT bad

It takes some back-snapping SEO gymnastics to describe The Lego Movie this way.

Found this in my grandfather's wardrobe. Are you guys aware of this?

Spending my Saturday at a kid's book conference. I honestly don't know much about this world but desperately want to be part of it. Pitching to a publisher this afternoon! #KidLitVic2026

My partner and I did a ring-making class today, and made each other's wedding bands.

any advice from writers for when you desperately need to start writing something but you can't because you're terrified of it being terrible

Oh man. I haven't been this excited for a movie since the "Great Simpsons Movie Countdown of 2006-2007"

I hardly ever see science news reach outside my little bubble, so it's been real nice to see everyone getting behind the story of NASA slingshotting a crew in a little tin can around the Moon and back safely. youtube.com/shorts/iWQWO...

I've just been made aware that planning a wedding involves a lot of planning. Are people aware of this
