Slightly frustrating to not know enough to apply for particular jobs, but I know too much to apply for apprenticeships that would lead to those jobs. This must be what not having a way into the industry for people mid-career looks like.

I’ll keep my three Affinity apps running as long as I can - they have been pretty anti subscription in the past, but tech companies can clearly turn.

It's not our regular week for Hunter but:

we haven't played in a while,

the players are ready,

it's spooky season.


So we are going to play Hunter the Reckoning at 11:30pm GMT, 7:30pm EDT on www.twitch.tv/talesofmytha...

Don’t give these people benefit of the doubt. This racist rant isn’t an accident. Or ‘speaking out of turn’.

It’s designed to fill our airwaves with people debating ‘if’ non white skin is a problem. Not Reform.

Diversity isn’t the issue, hatred is. Don’t indulge it, vote for it or tolerate it.

Taylor Swift... you are ruining my life.

We are playing @huckleberryrpg.com again! Come watch and join the giveaway =) #TTRPGs #Horror #WyrdWest #ActualPlay twitch.tv/TalesOfMythA...

Snickers bar and a metal whistle

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

I'm not sure when it happened but the British Library Sound and Moving Image catalogue is available to search again - even if you can't access the digital content remotely at the moment.

I think I lost track of Buffy due to scheduling and Highers, but I caught up later via DVD.

I definitely remember some Scottish-specific stuff on Ceefax and ITV Teletext in the mid 90s - because when I visited relatives in Grampian theirs was notably different.

I also remember this. I'm not sure why they couldn't localise subtitles…

I'd not heard of her before - is she more or less The Daily Express in human form?

#ttrpg #actualplay #castingcall

That was supposed to sort by date, but apparently the URL doesn't do that.

I swear the James Rodger snow-warning clickbait start earlier each year.

2013: Evangelicals: "We're going to use feminist sounding language to separate the T from the LGB, to ultimately ban abortion."

2014: UK 'GC' groups spring up overnight, with anon donations.

10 years of anti-trans activism.

2025: The British Press: "OMG, evangelicals are trying to ban abortion!"

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit

Burglar says asking occupants for use permission would 'kill' the housebreaking industry.

I'd bet that's a name that came from a large-language model.

I keep telling them: direct your complaints to the labour party. "reform would be worse" isn't an argument when trans people, migrants etc. are already getting reform policies thrown at them by labour.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

You did good work on this one.

Huckleberry Opening music for a Twitch stream of this weird/ wyrd west TTRPG game

I also did some music for this: soundcloud.com/lavaita/huck...

I'll be one of the players on this - it should be a fun time! #TTRPG #ActualPlay

StealthMountain was fairly exclusively about sneaky peaks and sneak peaks. Maybe someone else had a bot for pedal / peddle?

Sometimes I miss accounts like StealthMountain on the oldsite which would call people out for saying "sneak peak" instead of "sneak peek."

Happy birthday to the only TV show to predict that in the future some people would communicate using only reaction memes
