Humans, not content with ruining their own planet, manage to find a way to dump their unwanted trash on their nearest celestial body. #Moon

On my way, Clacton.

Game on, Nige.

One of the best games I’ve ever played. I’ve happily spent hundreds of hours avoiding wolves and bears while trying not to freeze or starve to death. I simply cannot recommend it highly enough.

I made a thing: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=157... I'm pretty new to coding so it's not very polished but it's something. #pico8

Reform schools

Braverman's new world

Democracy in Kent is under attack from a Reform administration that is clearly terrified of scrutiny. They are moving to quiet the opposition while prioritising songs and prayers over policy discussion. It is a bizarre and anti-democratic shift for our county. 🧵 1/6

Our Father Who art in heaven,
Donald be thy Name.
Thy madness come,
Thy Will be done,
In Iran & not in heaven. Give us this day your daily dread.
And forgive us our trespasses
As you trespass against us. 
And lead us not into Epstein, 
But deliver us lots of evil. Amen.🙏🏻

Just finished Episode 5 of #TheLongDark. WOW! All I can say is thank you so much @raphlife.bsky.social and @hinterland.bsky.social for the many many hours of entertainment you have given me. #TLD is an absolute masterpiece and I can't wait to see what you guys have in store for the future.

South East Water have been rubbish for ages but this just takes the biscuit. Beleaguered water company throws bottles into skip www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Bottles of water thrown away by South East Water in Tonbridge

South East Water says the water was from bottled water stations or returned by customers.

Today could quite possibly be the best day of my life. (I tore the plastic film lid off one of those foil tray oven bake ready meals in one piece.)

One of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time: www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ja...

Melania review – Trump film is a gilded trash remake of The Zone of Interest

Dispiriting, deadly and unrevealing – there is a decent documentary to be made about the former model from Slovenia, but this one is unredeemable

This. Faversham is the best of British.

Otto English@ottoenglish.bsky.social · 11mo ago

Measured, sensible, and much welcomed statement from Faversham Town Council on the idiocy of the moronic flag pandemic.

I noticed a few flags on lampposts and poorly drawn lines on road markings. Then I heard that a bunch of people are apparently coming here for an angry walk tomorrow morning because they’re scared of unaccompanied children who’d like to live in Britain. #faversham tinyurl.com/pu8at5yv

The GPS test has always been about using a number to quantify something more akin to an art so that politicians can claim they have improved something because the number went up. Often y6 writing is now devoid of any character entirely because of this, yet ticks all the boxes to meet ‘age expected’

Linden Kemkaran - the new Reform leader of Kent County Council. 😳 Just a different shade of blue? A somewhat questionable appointment in my humble opinion.

Tory candidate shared tweet claiming Muslims have 'nasty culture'

Get ready for the squarest year of our lifetimes! 2025 = 45² and we don’t get 46² until the year 2116. AND, as a 1980 birth, I’ll get to turn 45 during the square year. I’ve been looking forward to this since when I still had hair. youtu.be/99stb2mzspI?...

Why 1980 was a great year to be born... but 2184 will be better

I’m very slowly building a polyphonic synthesiser cobbled together from various schematics I’ve stumbled across online. Working on just one voice for now. DCO is based on the Juno 106. Got the VCA working with the ADSR today. Needs plenty of tweaking but feels good to accomplish something. #synthdiy

Well this is refreshing. Long may it continue.
