Watership Down is the classic British kid trauma, but mine is a bit unusual - I don't think my dad really understood the concept of books that were too scary for children, so I got read it as a bedtime story!!

I move that these curious and monumental wind turbine parts are the most successful public artwork in Edinburgh in many a year.

Feeling directly addressed today.

centrists and liberals prefer fascists to leftists, who knew

Well, one out of two isn't bad.

Remembering the ancient ways

I mean, I can be stupid on ten hours of sleep, but, yes mother Ursula 🫡

😢

My world, my Earth is a ruin. A planet spoiled by the human species. We multiplied and fought and gobbled until there was nothing left, and then we died. We controlled neither appetite nor violence; we did not adapt. We destroyed ourselves. But we destroyed the world first.

We're at a point where there are no cheap options to retreat to and no price points that guarantee quality. Every run-down studio is $1400, every fast food meal is $17, every luxury condo has peel-n-stick tiles, every $300 pair of boots falls apart. Endless expensive mediocrity.

He had grown up in a country run by politicians who sent the pilots to man the bombers to kill the babies to make the world safe for children to grow up in.

tell you what lads, maybe getting ourselves off gas and oil wasn't such a bad idea after all

You will not regret scrolling up for the rest of this thread about the sheer audacity of cats to walk into houses they don't live in and swan around like they own the place Honestly, excellent cat behaviour 💯

when they said there'd be bread and circuses, they should have specified that the bread would cost 200% more than it did four years ago and the circuses are only available on your least favourite streaming network for $19.99/month

Sitting on a little regional Italian train, reading Murderbot with CHVRCHES in my ears as little hilltop Tuscan towns roll by, and feeling pretty fucking serene I tell you

When you fuck up so badly that the Ribble Valley goes, Christ, even we aren't that Tory.

strange women lying in ponds distributing swords actually sounds like a pretty decent alternative right now

Aaaargh. Dear Saltsea Chronicles, if you're going to have a narrative video game, have a bloody resolution!!

Boy, Steam, it would be kinda nice if the LGBTQ tag wasn't 40% crass porn games.

Still enjoying Saltsea Chronicles, but my god that card game is a chore. I don't know if I'm just bad at it or the AI partner is intentionally stupid, but it's like Bridge if Bridge came with random card values and a penalty for winning too much.

Flu update: spent my energy spoons for today going into town to buy a shirt and tie for the funeral on Thursday that at this rate I will not be going to 🙃

Flu update: slept 12 hours last night, left the house today for the first time since Tuesday, and made it alllll the way to the Tesco at the end of the road. Then had to make dinner at breakneck speed before the last of my energy drained away. Going to be a fun weekend 🙃
