Very happy to be able to share with you all that Schrodinger's Cat Burglar is in the Cat Awareness Feline Sale in a little under a week! Thanks to the @devcatsgames.bsky.social for organizing the sale :) #indiegames #catsofbluesky

What's that? THREE new indie games to check out? Lego to build? What a Sunday morning! Grab a cuppa, get cosy, and let's try and wake up a bit? www.twitch.tv/ambershee

I wonder if they realised that was already her job

Demos! Graphics! Music! Livecoding! A tutorial session and a glitched-out movie night! If you're onsite at #emfcamp (I am not, alas) go and look as these people have a gosh-darned demoscene planetarium dome. How cool is that?

@field-fx.party · 3w ago

Demoparty in a field time is here! I hope you're all either locked on Workshop 2 at #emfcamp or twitch.tv/FieldFxDemo this weekend! field-fx.party/index.php?pa... for the detailed... uh, schedule. #demoscene

Congratulations to the government on saving 2700 jobs by nationalising British Steel. Now, about the 18,000 university jobs lost in the last 18 months, with more coming…

80s: Japan is the future 90s, 00s: Japan in dying country typified by stagnant incomes, xenophobia and toxic, sexless nerd culture Now: oh, that WAS the future

the actual suicide of the West will be combining a rapidly aging population with hostility to migrants. however we must give credit to East Asia, especially Japan, for pioneering this model.

does anyone wanna fund my indie game? it’s called Keep All Of My Colleagues Gainfully Employed. it’s an ARG where you keep all of my colleagues gainfully employed. we’re workshopping the name

Really important investigation showing that the Govt's and Palantir's claims fall apart when they're subjected to scrutiny. And NHSE knows the numbers don't add up: "Over the course of four days of calls and emails, NHS England did not respond to any of the questions we sent them about the data".

Andrew Kersley@andrewkersley.bsky.social · last mo.

Chelsea and Westminster is the poster child for Palantir – the first hospital to use its tech. It claims to have cut waiting lists there by 183,000. But when I investigated for @londonermag.bsky.social, I found evidence that wasn't true. Now MPs are calling for an inquiry. Read my full expose:

Hey Bayeux Tapestry fans have I made the platform game for you? I’m sure someone else will have done this before but well now I have too… bayeuxgo.live

the fact of our mainstream politicians and media simply allowing this stuff, sometimes even defending, even valorising it, makes me feel we are all living in hell

Hope Common Ground (including the good folks at Curio and Flow Records) can be back with us soon but drinks and books sounds like an excellent combo (err, as long as one is not applied directly to the other. That's a less good combo in my experience)

Oxford Clarion@oxfordclarion.bsky.social · last mo.

First-rate beer and secondhand books will come together on Friday when Curio bookshop begins a series of weekly pop-ups at the Lamb & Flag. The bookshop is temporarily 'on hiatus' while its usual home, Common Ground on Little Clarendon Street, changes management. www.instagram.com/p/DZ7QDtuDLPT/

Climate emergency cancels Reform's "cancel the climate emergency" meeting - council members were due to vote on Thurs on a Reform motion to rescind the climate emergency.

The Oxford Union offers a horrible illustration of what happens to political institutions when the only currency they recognise is attention and outrage.

What an end of an era for the Oxford music scene. Thanks for everything over the decades, Ronan and all at Nightshift mag.

For the 12 people on here and the three who might care, June's Nightshift is online now at nightshiftmag.co.uk/2026/jun.pdf Last one, may feature teary-eyed nostalgia.

Good news! Some recent research shows that we are good to go, kitten-sized-ants-wise www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Oxygen supply through the tracheolar–muscle system does not constrain insect gigantism - Nature

New evidence suggests that diffusive oxygen transport through the tracheolar–muscle system is not the limiting factor on insect body size.

Well. you can't say FIFA doesn't know how to Dallas properly. They came to town and immediately destroyed a beloved downtown mural painted in 1999 by a revered artist. www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm...

The last time I was turned down for Arts Council funding, they sent me a model application for a project to demonstrate what they were ideally looking for. The model application was by me a year earlier. And was also turned down.

One does not simply make a cat game

got something in my eye...

I'm sick of living in a dying kingdom where the things that once ensured prosperity are all failing but nobody can imagine what comes after so we're forced into burning through the dregs of whatever's left just to keep the lights on. I'm going to go play Dark Souls 3.

this is an amazing noise but probably best not to try at home, kids (there are no kids and indeed nobody reading my account so I am really just telling myself that)

Rev. Poppy Haze 𓅋@poppyhaze.bsky.social · 3mo ago

found this guy on Tiktok who has discovered carpenter's speed squares make an insanely satisfying noise when you bounce them off tires or wood, called @lostcoastedc on there

Hopefully people will realise "if you don't vote for us we'll build a concentration camp in your area" is a fucking insane thing to say and shove Reform firmly in the bin. Fucks sake. In fact that absolutely deserves the deer. 🦌

If you’re trans & born before 2000, when asked who you are you can legit answer: “Do not ask me for a single title, I have crossed millennia under different names and worn more than one form besides. Revered by some and feared by many, I am remembered differently in each age that survives me.”

I tested this for fun to see if it was regional - Crumbl is a US company and doesn't exist in Germany. It still "corrected" my search term and the entire first page of results was for the brand - even though the nearest store is 6000km away.

in case you were wondering what stage of capitalism we're at, google search is now treating the word "crumble" as a misspelling of the cookie brand crumbl
