If a screenwriter put this in a movie or TV show, everyone would say that the symbolism was outrageously on the nose. Cannot believe this is real life

When I woke up this morning I had no idea one of the highlights of my day would be @rahulkohli13.bsky.social coining the phrase "pallette Nurgle" but here we are I guess

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?

Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.

It undermines police and the law.

Also, the military industrial complex is absolutely bananas

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Ok this Warhammer painting thing is fun as hell. Anyone want me to paint their army for them? I just want to paint and buying enough for myself would be... Uh... Financially unwise

If you're on the fence about having kids, just remember there is nothing that can compare with snuggling a tiny little cuddly bundle as it absent mindedly and repeatedly heel kicks you in the crotch

Yo @rahulkohli13.bsky.social , I know you're all about the 4k fidelity, but how about some love for this retro set mockup?

Hooray, it's new @dennisetaylor.bsky.social and @realrayporter.bsky.social audiobook day!

Thanks chaps, that's the soundtrack to today's work sorted

Help! I've been convinced to get into Warhammer and I'm really enjoying it! What do I do?! Someone save me!!!

If you enjoy unexpected dark humour, I present, for your consideration:

My wife, reading a book to the baby that has buttons to play ocean animal sounds in a sing song voice:

"What can you hear under the sea? You can hear Titan Imploding!"

Never been more proud of her

Jeremy Bowen's long, measured, objective, but ultimately entirely clear and conclusive essay on Israeli war crimes. As Jonathan Sumption puts it:

"These things make genocide the most plausible explanation for what is now happening."

I hope everyone who has got a shiny new Switch 2 is having lots of fun with it.

I'm jealous. What's annoying is I wasn't fussed at all until other people have the shiny new toy and now I want one.

I shall console (ha) myself by watching Predator: Killer of Killers instead

Well that's my "I'm working but really I'm watching something" sorted for tomorrow morning

The one day I don't check Blue sky, and when I spent a large portion of it doing my tax return, there's a demo for the game I'm most excited about. Typical

Currently editing the next episode of 5 Random Questions, and putting himself on the hot seat is @drewtoynbee.com. Can't wait to share it with you - some pithy conversation, but also some personal takeaways.

Just adding to the many reasons I love doing this show. ❤️

I'm sleep deprived and a bit delirious, so I'm going to do a very un-British thing and publicly thank @foldablehuman.bsky.social and @mikeyface.bsky.social for providing me with my YouTube comfort viewing playlist while I work today.

If you don't know them, watch them. If you do, watch them again
