My only New Year's Resolution (I don't tend to do them): run this #Mothership #TTRPG module, which is truly awesome and a rare example of real cosmic horror plus hard sci-fi. The content warning (CW) says it all.

I just stumbled across this fake name and identity generator (it's for fun, not felony) and it's really impressive-- www.fakenamegenerator.com

A very good animated story about werewolf-vampires, to round out your 2025.

2026, Year of the Horse

A colour sketch of a monstrous, muscular horse in left side view. It has crushed the head of the 2025 year of the snake under its left front hoof in a splash of blood, and the snake is wound about its hindleg. The brown and black horse has a spectral, demonic skull in red, and a black unicorn horn, and a red fiery mane. Chinese characters say Year of the Horse (I am guessing) and 2026.

This shit needs to be burned to the ground, as any kind of response to stunts and marches the resurgent far right. “The largest fascist mobilisation since before WWII” is an emergency. Anyone who reacts like this is pandering and seeking their approval.

Then on BBC Breakfast on Tuesday, home secretary Cooper seemed to take it even further.
She said: "We actually have Union Jack bunting on our garden shed at the moment, I've got St George's flags, I've got St George's bunting, I've got the Yorkshire Rose bunting as well, I've got Union Jack flags and tablecloths... we've got the lot."

Prime minister Keir Starmer told BBC Radio 5
Live that he is "very encouraging of flags", saying they are "patriotic" and a "great symbol of a nation".
•
He said. "I'm the leader of the Labour Party who put the Union Jack on our Labour Party membership cards. I always sit in front of a Union Jack, and l've been doing it for years.
"It attracted a lot of comment when I started doing it and in our flat - which is upstairs from here - we've got the St George's flag in our flat."

Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.

Majority of Gen Z swipe left on dating people with opposite political views

I just want to celebrate that, as 2025 ends, I have coauthored a paper about crocs with a Jésus, and I look forward to publishing it in 2026 with our scientific lord and saviour.
