Southern expat living in sunny Manchester - quite liked the ending of Game of Thrones. Posts in a personal capacity because I can't afford to outsource it.
Happy Winter Solstice. The sun has risen in Manchester (We're told).

Bring on those Solstice bells!

Of all the AI fun that's been brought upon us my favourite is:

"Sign in and enable Co-Pilot"

Options:
"Register and signup"
"Maybe later"

... that "maybe" .. how about a firm, hard "NO THANKS".

Never been a big Peanuts fan but the more I learn about Schultz the more I like it.

If you're heading for work this morning and thinking it's effing dark... just 5 more days until the Winter Solstice 🌄📆.

🌞Brighter days are ahead folks. Hold on!

Right Bluesky your experience is required. If I have an Ikea delivery and they've given a 4 hour window with a tracker that is supposed to show a live update but hasn't updated... will I be safe doing the school pickup?

As in - I'm guessing I'm near the back of the queue still?

Just plugged the printer into the new laptop.

Install the drivers and printed a page successfully.

2025 lads. You've finally done it.

Walk to school this morning involved thinking up alternatives to "wetter than an otters pocket".

"Wetter than a fish's sausage roll" was the best we came up with?

Me yesterday:
Need a day off coffee - it's really upsetting my stomach, tomorrow, no coffee.

Me today:
One pint mug full won't hurt - the body just needs training.

The lesser spotted Manchester winter sun.

Finally got out of a long running meeting to see it before it goes again.

Blimey we've needed a forecast like this for a few weeks now.

I'm late to the gym, never usually come at 3pm. There's a lot of school kids

They are exercising in their uniforms...I want one of them to mouth off at me so I can come back with "alright RFK Jr. junior".

Proof the emails for Christmas get earlier and earlier each year...

The Bridgewater Hall have just emailed me about an event... NEXT CHRISTMAS.

If you need me I'll just be outside putting heavy things on the top of the skip the builders have helpfully left during a storm full of random loose things.

Second time in a week my Windows 11 start her completely fails to load.

It's becoming an unusable OS..

The BBC spent years trying to make a programme out of the lottery. Similar vibes
Does anyone who is not directly involved in World Cup draws enjoy the parts of World Cup draws that are not the actual draw. Who tunes into these things thinking "I really hope this lasts a lot longer than necessary, with a load of musical acts, stilted speeches and self-regarding short films"

Netherlands and Spain have just withdrew from Eurovision.

Spain are one of the "big five" so that's some cash that's gone there too. 👀

Spain just have if my Spanish is up to scratch.

Just thinking about Parkrun on the weekend when a guy cut me up and on the back of his t-shirt was written "Respect my run, give me space".

OK bud - I will take note of giving you space. You can have plenty.
