Coffee. The biggest ad campaign of my teenage years seriously suggested that instant coffee was something that sophisticated urbanites offered their neighbours in the hope of getting them into bed.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Hey guys! I'm Burke, he's Hare, and before we get into today's unboxing video, we just wanna talk a little about today's sponsor, Surfshark

Literally just learned this now at Bristol's MShed museum. This must be what the nursery rhyme Pop Goes the Weasel is about.

we are keeping tabs of what Andy Burnham says vs what Andy Burnham actually does www.ft.com/content/4371...

In what is probably my most niche thought I have had in a while, if Meat Loaf's "Objects in the Rear View Mirror" had a verse set in the endless autumn, what would it be about? His first job that allowed him to buy movie tickets for all his mates? @wulfboyraff.bsky.social any thoughts?

Hey remember when Nanowrimo said "sure why not" to allowing AI slop in their process and then immediately died after 20 years of operation oh, no reason, was just thinkin' about it

I recommend this gem. There's not enough creative games about doing weird stuff by combining magical runes out there. Just this and Magicka really. Well, maybe Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem, but the options were much more limited there.

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."

@theabigailthorn.bsky.social gratz on being named the People's Champion by Amnesty International! I trust that means that when we are challenged to a duel, you will step in? But for real, it's a huge achievement and you deserve every bit of it. Thank you for helping to educate millions.

i often think about this review

I'm trying to give indie TTRPGs some love on Polygon but it's tough because they don't do the sort of traffic as D&D stories. But one of the best part of my job is talking to game developers about their passion for the hobby. Here's a piece on Nimble: www.polygon.com/nimble-dunge...

Outstanding. A triumph for liberty and against unrestrained state power. The government should be ashamed of having to be forced into this position. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

www.smbc-comics.com/comic/socrates @smbccomics.bsky.social nails it. I would like to see @theabigailthorn.bsky.social give a take not on what philosophers would think of modern society, but on what effect modern society would have on the works of the philosophers. Was Kant red-, or black-pilled?

@bonniepatterson.bsky.social probably super cheeky of me to do this, but as you're the narrative designer for a game I would love a chance to audition to voice on it. I can send reels if you're open to it? Sorry to try to network off the back of shitposting on Andy's thread

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... interesting article. I'm not a neuro sci guy, I'm a climate sci guy but I am an actor of a sort. Really interesting that from a brain-activity perspective acting appears to relate more to turning off the self, and less to adding traits to the self.

Nine years to the day since Graham Linehan foresaw his own fate.

Aristotle: humans are the rational animal. Humans: lol okay buddy, we'll see about that.

@tomgrossi.bsky.social I'm a Packers fan, in the UK, and new to football. Is it okay to cheer for a divisional rival? I feel like the Bears, Lions, and Vikings are OUR rivals. Other teams shouldn't be allowed to beat them. The Bears may suck, but we should be proud of them tonight. NFC North 4eva

On Sunday, the Packers once again played down to the level of their competition. However, their superstar pass rusher made sure it didn't cost them a win. For @theleap.bsky.social: the Micah Parsons effect https://www.theleap.football/p/the-micah-parsons-effect

🔴NEW🔴 Thread 🧵 @bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12
