Discworld QOTD, from Wyrd Sisters

“The night was as black as the inside of a cat. It was the kind of night, you could believe, on which the gods moved men as though they were pawns on the chessboard of fate. In the middle of the elemental storm a fire gleamed among the dripping furze bushes like the madness in a weasel’s eye. It illuminated three hunched figures. As the cauldron bubbled an eldritch voice shrieked: ‘When shall we three meet again?’ There was a pause. Finally another voice said in far more ordinary tones: ‘Well I can do next Tuesday.’"

Incredible, despite all the slander the TERFs through at Trans people, in reality its the TERFs who don’t understand the word ‘no’ and consent

Exactly- so they shouldn’t keep voting for Labour and get behind a party that provides an actual alternative.

Glad we agree that Labour voters (ex or otherwise) by continuing to vote for the Red Tories are splitting the vote or more accurately throwing their vote away to the benefit of reform.

Well if they’re ex Labour voters, sure they will understand the need to unite behind the better alternative and not split the vote by throwing it away on Labour

Was supposed to launch my online store with a special edition of my trademark series this year, but with tariffs causing US packages to be pulped and the Canada Post strike looks like the store will be postponed 😞

I promise I didnt just tease then forget about this. 2026 lets hope ✌️

Think it’s time for Labour voters to get with the programme and stop splitting the vote

new anti-smoking yokai spotted in Osaka?🤔

Sarah McAnulty, Ph.D. @sarahmackattack.bsky.social · 9h

Yeah no I get it. I like. Totally get it.

Ok um. This is a 8.5x11 inch piece of paper taped to the wall that says no smoking, so far so good. But then there’s a person whose head is a peeled orange (yes it does have a nose thank you for asking), and it’s holding a slice of orange. Its body is a person. Under the person says fine 1000 yen Osaka city

Thanks Chris! I should be used to the process by now, with the amount of job applications I’ve historically done, but every damn time still gets me 😅

Two beautiful young woman stand in what looks like the bathroom of a gothic club. The walls are red with a lattice pattern over them, with black accents to the doors and mirror frames. The floor is also black tile as are the sinks.

On the left we see a beautiful woman with short black hair, green eyes and black lips holding up a black phone to take a selfie with. She wears a black choker, as well as a black jacket, a black top with sheer parts, black trousers and black high heel shoes with a red sole. She also wears a gothic belt and harneses on her legs. On her cheek we can see the faint outline of pink lipstick suggesting she's been kissed there recently.

On the right we see the exact opposite of the woman on the left. With long flowing strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes, this young woman looks completely out of place here. She wears a sparkly short pink party dress, as well as a nice pink handbag and tall sparkly boots with a red sole. She wears a little heart shaped harness on her leg as well as gold jewellery on her wrists and neck. On her cheeck we see the faint outline of black lipstick, suggesting she's been kissed recently as well.

An arrogant looking young woman sits on an antique looking throne. Behind her is a set of dark red velvet curtains and windowed doors, the doors looking out over the city of Los Angeles, which is set against a starry sky. A grey rug sits underneath the throne, which is made of dark wood and black leather cushions.

The woman herself has dark skin and black hair that sit in a bob. She has brown eyes and brown lips which sit in a devious smile. On her wrists she has a number of gold bangles, one of which is inset with rubies and on her hands she has long black finger nails.

She also wears a white turtle neck with a gold chain around her neck. On her legs she wears ankara trousers with an incredible African pattern on them and white high heel snake skin boots.

In the top left hand corner, there is a number of words. They read "Lights and Sound; The Movie Magazine" as well as "Issa Mbaye; In Conversation with the woman taking over Hollywood"

#vampireenjoyers

A line up of characters against a simple white background. The words "Ray Tracing: Guardian of the Renderverse" are written on the left hand side, with "Character Height Chart" and "From left to right; Ray Tracing, Crash Render, Chroma Ciara" being on the right.

On the left we have a rad little dude with blonde hair dressed in a backwards cap, sunglasses, a blue t-shirt, a black denim waistcoat, jorts and converse.

In the middle we have a big angry dude with a red mohawk, red glasses, a red t-shirt, a black denim waistcoat, black jeans and boots.

On the right we have a cool little dudette with her brown hair up in piftails, round sunglasses, green earrings, a black leather jacket, a green dress and boots.

#oc #ocsky

A line up of characters stand against a purple background covered in cartoon bats, crosses and skulls, the words meet the counsellors up in the left hand corner. they are all dressed in camp counsellor uniforms which consist of a black t-shirt, black shorts, wristbands, tall socks and converse.

From left to right we have:

A mysterious and short young woman with dark red hair up in a ponytail and a whistle around her neck. A tall buff dark skinned werewolf with dreads up in a pony tail. A cute plus sized vampire woman with a bat nose and bat ears as well as assorted jewellery and slap bracelets. A chill looking gill man with blonde hair up in a bun and wearing a sweat band. A shy looking Frankenstein woman with long hair and stitches all over her skin, as well as a bolt in the side of her head. A relaxed looking mummy guy covered in bandages with wave shoulder length hair. A sweet looking chubby ooze girl with gloopy hair covering her eye. A stern looking invisible man wearing a hat and sunglasses to help show where his face is.

Wish these headlines were written with an ounce of context and awareness informing them.

Like, “Desperate LLM Technologist Looks To Avoid Industry Bubble Burst By Promising Sad, Lonely ‘Erotic’ Feature Update” was sitting right there, and yet.
