a piece of brisket at the start of cooking in a smoker

Xmas 2024 brisket, your time has finally arrived! We couldn't host Xmas last year because my partner and I had COVID. Froze the brisket, but now it's time to cook!

So, USA domestic terrorism.

Does traumatising children by violently kidnapping their parents right in front of them, increase or decrease the chances of those kids becoming a terrorist in later life?

"Don of Finland back at it again". Fucking hell Excalibur I've already coughed wine into my sinuses once tonight, I really don't want to do it again. 🤼 #wrestlesky #AEWDynamite

Jet engine shortages threaten AI data center expansion as wait times stretch into 2030 — the rush to power AI buildout continues Wait times for mobile gas turbines stretch into the 2030s as hyperscalers race to buy every jet engine they can find.

What a cursed combination of words

YouTube video by KEXP Snapped Ankles - I Want My Minutes Back (Live on KEXP)

After hearing @snappedankles.bsky.social in a few playlists and listening to more I finally remembered to see what they were like live.

Even better than I'd imagined.

Dropped my trusty Galaxy Tab at just the wrong angle a couple of weeks ago and shattered the screen. $200 to replace it!

Yeah, nah. Hello new Lenovo Tab One. Not a huge list to choose from Android tablets with 8" screen, but this'll do the trick.

Pretty chuffed to receive Lifetime Membership from Sydney Roller Derby League. 14 years since we attended our first bout & over 10 years since we joined SRDL.

I've gotten a lot and given a lot to #rollerderby. Worth every second. Sure, there's been yucky bits. More good bits though! ♥️ 🛼 #derbysky

Remember our mantra:

Don't Engage, Just Block.

Fascists in 2024: Ah ha ha!! Run to Bluesky, you pussies! Twitter is OURS now.

Fascists in 2025: it appears I have misunderstood how much I need attention

Aurora was so bright the ground turned green

Yeah this will go totally fine.

look at these weirdos from the US Govt. Cowardly, low testosterone, low intelligence WEIRDOS.

what a telling sign of weakness that these fed agencies join bsky a day before what is likely to be the largest No Kings rally yet. they're scared and they know bluesky has the juice.

Thank you. Unfortunately, we don't have access to treatments like this where I live.

Someone not me needs to write a comic history of the Spirit of Tasmania

Ratchet, a tabby cat, is very relaxed at the vet, in this photo he's nearly asleep on the examination table

Ratchet, who likes to sit on things, has a weird blood cancer that is terminal. Vet can provide treatments that maintain/improve his quality of life until the end arrives. For now, Ratchet is still Ratcheting. Including being VERY relaxed about vet visits. #cat #cats #catsky

It’s a start. Keep making phone calls to keep partisan politics out of airport safety PSAs.

My boss: so how's our fourth quarter looking?

Me, the sales manager at the company that makes inflatable frog suits: well, you're never going to believe this, but

No folders. No clutter. Everything is just a swipe away. #Android #Pixel8

Screenshot of a Pixel 8 home screen. The wallpaper is the planet Earth, at the top of screen is a search bar. Then a clock, and at the bottom a row of app logos.

Look at this. Single page, gesture and search driven. I should have been using this a loooong time ago it's so much better. #Android #Pixel8

ohhh airlines we never see in Sydney, and a few more aircraft types too. Laos fly C909's, I don't know if anyone operates Comac planes to Sydney, but I DO know that I've never seen a C909 before. FUN.

every fucking time

Since Bluesky moderation seems to be keen to hide moderation lists for “harassment” , maybe we should all report this list that’s calling people racist against AI

Neil Gaiman was accused of being a rapist, and the defense his lawyers chose was to get the case bounced to another jurisdiction where judgements against him would be smaller and harder to get. They *could* have chosen to defend on the merits but decided not to for some reason.

For some reason.

You're looking at a large yellow gold beast, AKA a kiwi cheese scone, sitting on a white stoneware plate. It dominates the plate and the small bowl featuring two hefty triangles of butter next to it. If you were to lift this scone, you would feel its heft. This scone sees cheese and says give me more! You know that if you tapped the top of this scone it would make an ominous hollow sound that, if you know your cheese scones, promises a delicious crunchy top with a soft interior. Also on this table, admiring this scone is a yellow tea cup sitting on a blue saucer. A frankly inferior looking stainless steel teapot and milk jug containing just enough brew to wash down the scone. Elsewhere on the table is a comedic book from 1936 about Gardening and my notebook that I was using to jot spotted notes. It's brown covered and nondescript, unlike the scone of might. Which is easy to descript. It is majestic.

BEHOLD the majesty of the Kiwi cheese scone. This scone isn't here for a fancy tea. This scone has come to rumble. This scone demands MORE butter. This scone has OPINIONS about jam. This scone is three square meals and elevenses. This scone has HEFT.
You do not eat this scone. You experience it.
