@zombiecleo.bsky.social one of the best parts of a new Hermitcraft season is getting to watch your vids, and the unbridled joy and hilarity with which you tackle the early game. I still remember how you made me laugh starting S10, and this S11’s the same. Thank you for what you do and who you are!

Or buying β€œtechnical” outdoor clothing, which is a look, but not necessarily one everyone wants all the time.

I don’t regret my $500 goretex I bought 20 years ago, but the amount of times I want to wear bright red as someone who doesn’t like to draw attention…

Oof, the β€œnot patient with his own” resonates hard to the son of a silent generation Aussie, whose formative leads were fatherless during WWII. I watched the patience with which he explained and taught things to others (inc my own kids), yet I had to get Mum to teach me to drive πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

The amount of flack I’ve copped over the years for having never seen Harry Potter…finally I am seen! Thank you!

Jeebus Cam, what a way to take the mood down a peg on Friday night. Pocket plus original twitter was a match made in early internet heaven, and I *learned so much* during that time.

Fucking hell, looks like I’ve managed to live in a reality where I was taught it, didn’t realise it then wasn’t, and kiddos lucked into a school that taught it without us realising.

I will never tire of hearing people posting their reactions to Andor.

As a SW fan of ye olde days (when I hid it cos it was too nerdy in high school), it gives me life like little else to see people fall in love with the β€œnormal” people of that universe

β€œAnd so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”

Scoop: It appears as though the Victorian Liberals have accidentally given unprecedented insight into what data they collect on voters because of a wrongly configured email provider.

Fields include "Predicted Chinese", "Predicted Jewish" and more.

It is this goober’s 5th birthday today, and there is no way I will believe we’ve already had nearly 5 years together.

As she’s the goodest girl, she got treats, a new toy, and some sausage from human dinner for good measure. Oh and we’re away camping, so her life is heaven atm

Even better that the potato looks like he’s photoshopped in, because no woman would want to actually listen to what he says at the supermarket

this is a golden age for walking out of your lab with a USB key in your pocket getting on a plane and going to Luxembourg
