Now that the anger has subsided and I’ve come to terms with this new Liquid Glass UI, and how naff my once pristine phone is now, I’m really just in awe at the person who got this through what I presume is an insanely rigorous, top heavy approvals process at Apple. The fucking balls on them.

Shout out to @davidnsteer.bsky.social for helping me realise Apple is just helping me use my phone less by making it unenjoyable to perform even basic functions.

No further feedback.

I wouldn’t have guessed that a redesign of the aesthetic of the iPhone interface is what makes me look at Android seriously, but here we are.

It will basically depend on if I can transfer my Puzzle and Dragons save.

This covers one that was new to me, Endowed Progress.

Gotta stay up to date with the ways we're being manipulated to ensure our time is being spent doing the things we value.

An abomination.

You cannot be in both camps, Andy! You have to pick a side! This is like werewolves vs vampires.

Lunchtime climbing is the shit. In and out in an hour. Knackered.

Since I started, my sciatica has disappeared, even though when I'm not climbing, I'm basically at my desk. I thought it was a stretching thing, but it turns out it was a strength thing.

It's obviously a highland coo or a wee dancer. Or anything pure magic.

He has a Japanese skin, a Mexican skin, a pizza oven skin (not even a deep fryer), and no actually Scottish skin. C'mon. There's so many available options. Right at the top of the my list - a wee dancer.

Playing Ash in Brawl Stars and feel simultaneously so seen and so offended at the same time.

Any character that opens up a battle shouting "I'm so manky!" is an immediate main for any self-respecting Scot.

Not only is that a lie, but you already did it.

I can only pray that is Assassin's Creed Revelations on the left.

Seems like someone's been neglecting their children's training. They won't make it through the Last Starfighter test unless you start them early.

Did you play any split screen? I still play the first one, almost exclusively split screen, and performance is pretty dire on Switch 1. Switch 2 still struggles a bit when the screen fills up :(

Is it a work post? Yes. Does that make this game any less awesome? No.

Although I can barely confirm what I had for dinner yesterday, I will say this is 100% true.

How does Ball X Pit have so many systems and dependencies and complexity and yet is still so simple and brilliant and I LOVE KENNY SUN (and friends).

I was so looking forward to being able to skip this one. Honestly, there was no need for them to try now, after all this time.

Wowsers, this is a tremendous effort. Thank you, @yaustar.bsky.social

I live in a world where someone telling me they put me on their Asana board makes my day more than getting checked out at a bar.

At least, I assume it made my day more. Only one of these things has happened in the last decade.

This is serious business.

Looks like I'm into litrpg now. Can I *be* any sexier?

FAO @mckelvie.bsky.social I guess.

Nice evasion of the question, YOU OBVIOUS VILLAIN.

You don't really know that we only have one life to live. What if you have to relive this horror over and over, in many lives across many universes, each one presenting a new camera default that you hate, but everyone else inexplicably finds fine?

What have you done to deserve this fate?

My stories from the UK side include opening for Guns N Roses, and murdering (in a bad way) Warpigs in front of Tommy Iommi. We should write a book.

Hello darkness my old friend.

Just cut my first tik tok video. Told my wife I was going to become a content creator and she laughed disrespectfully hard.
