while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.
OMG, that's Zen Master level trolling. 😆
Watching Jaws again for the first time in a while. Still a great film.
Did a Meyers Briggs test for work and it explained so much. That's why all I wanted to do in Tongiaki was sail, @kentmbeeson.bsky.social - it's my personality type. I'm just drawn that way! ENTP for the win.
Back after a bit... this is still
At the bottom of our road. ❤️
@greatbritishmenu.bsky.social y'all really need to look at your safeguarding practices. There were some serious odd imbalances this season. 🙁
I have clearly been away for far too long!
Back with a picture of a river meeting a sea to get attention & remind us all that resistance matters and solidarity is key.
He's up for an Oscar too (already won a BAFTA). We're all rooting for him.
The cinematographer of that film is a graduate of the uni where I work (Northumbria). :)
Visited a northern town today.
For those wondering why Trump is spouting Putin's talking points regarding Ukraine/Zelensky:
1) Trump is utterly in awe/thrall of Putin & has been for years
2) He's a fascist and feels an affinity with dictators & 'strong men'
3) He thinks Zelensky was mean to him & he has no emotional control
The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.
The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter.
Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.
Nothing is OK but the ocean will always be there.
This is nothing short of miraculous.
So $175k per person. Why not just buy them each a house? It would have been cheaper and kinder.
Moselele - the undisputed champions of the world (of ukulele songbooks).
Sh*tting h*ll that is awesome.
If you have already tabbed it out (or any CR song) I will post you chocolate!
I've seen the early results and they're wrong. Sophtware Slump all the way.
I suggested Chappell Roan's HOT TO GO to my local club. You'd think I had 2 heads at their response. I guess new to them is 1980s.
Every little helps.
Everything is insane so here's a picture of the ocean.
Nah the printer trying to get me a call from HR
Jerry Lawson invented the video game cartridge. He's the reason they stopped making pong consoles in the 1970s. If it weren't for him, the Atari 2600 and many others would literally NEVER exist at all.
If you want help processing our current reality through a fictional lens, I highly recommend @chriskempshall.bsky.social's The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire.
A history of the main Star Wars stories, written by an in-universe historian, focusing on the franchise's fascism & totalitarianism.
A morning at the sea is good for anyone engaging with this world. This is Cullercoats Bay. It's a 2 minute walk from ours.
Here's another photo. I started a stained glass making workshop. A bit more sunshine is always a good thing.
