Extinct cryptid

Fuck gravity, marry momentum, kill inertia.

It's a great day to unfollow @file770.bsky.social, which has become a Nazi bar.

Having a bad mental health day but research shows that making something can alter brain biochemistry for the better, so l’ve made a cabinet of curiosities/small museum in a tiny antique Cadbury’s cocoa powder tin. This DEFINITELY helped ✔️

Hope you're allowed more time with the living than the dead.

You’ll notice it’s the Cheesecake Factory comparison and not the one to Saddam that set him off

If Americans need our little southern recipe for how to defeat fascism it goes like this: - Put people in the streets by standing for popular demands (wages, healthcare, public services) - Do not engage with fascists online - Do not succumb to doomsayers or media-driven narratives - Be happy

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

Well, I did the thing. Not because I was super excited by so many of my choices, but because voting is like taking the bus: it’s about choosing how close you can get to your preferred destination.

What it will eventually come to is that I'll nail my art to trees in our village and send out co-ordinates via blackbirds.

Heidi Wong's Halloween costume (instagram) is as the Shimmer from the Annihilation movie, with a purse using my novel. Really clever, looks good affixed to the purse.

Very much how I feel about AI “But in general, take my advice, when you meet anything that is going to be Human and isn't yet, or used to be Human once and isn't now, or ought to be Human and isn't, you keep your eyes on it and feel for your hatchet." - C. S. Lewis

Balloon releasers seem to think they never come down. In the Fens we often see them in drainage dykes like this one. Not a diy recovery: banks are 3m tall and a slip means you're in +2m of water. The drainage board had to send a team to remove it as it was big enough to block a sluice or culvert.

When i was a kid, we didn’t even have umami. We could only taste 4 things.

There's an endless autumn in me, scenting my thoughts like campfire smoke.

As we approach the midterms, remember that the Alt National Park Service is a merch sales operation claiming without evidence to be a group of federal employees, and is not a genuine source of news about elections of any kind. Please get your election info from a local, reputable source.

I just backed Maybe It Will Happen Today: The 2027 Calendar! on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/miw...

When I say "I've got friends in low places" I am referring to my parasocial relationship with yeti crabs that live near deep-sea thermal vents. No we haven't actually met but they mean a lot to me ok

According to Etsy, I have not listed one of these in over 2 years! Been busy. Price is the same as in 2024. #sciart artologica.etsy.com/listing/4600...

We have to think about collapsing Trump poll numbers and Rs turning on him the same way we'd think about finally being able to corner a rabid raccoon in your garage. Good news: he's out of options. Bad news: he's a rabid raccoon.

You’d be surprised how far you get analysing current politics with just “greed and conquest are cool guy shit and caring about others is gay and woke“

To just spell it out, the Kickstarter for a MIWHT calendar (plus also stickers and prints) is going live on Thursday morning. There will be special pricing for the first 24 hours, so push on the 'notify me' thing. And tell everyone you know who wants good things to happen.

If you gave a nickel to a crow that crow would have made more, by billions, than Anthropic

Was just called a muckraker. What is this 1906? Related, I pray to God AOL email accounts are never disabled because they always alert me that pure joy has arrived.

I think it’s a sampling bias thing, if you’re poly and it’s working out fine you don’t need to get your magazine editor friends to publish your article about how it’s all working out fine

<silently screaming>

Pray for us all. Monday’s regularly scheduled programming was paused to see Ken Russell’s “The Devils”, and my soul was delivered. ~Drawing included as an unholy offering to the Gods of cinema.

do you denounce the sultans of swing

why do men want to give women who aren't interested in them tips on becoming hotter? then you'd want to fuck me and I still wouldn't want to fuck you. surely that's not an experience your life is currently lacking

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you

Billionaires get mad at things that can't be bought, like talent. Surely they should be able to write books and perform music and have mathematical insights just as well as the talented -- they're rich! If we let them dismiss and devalue real talent, we're going to pay a big price.

So… um… all artists/creators need to delete our Instagram & FBs by the 30th????

I have to use ChatGPT at work and the first thing I did was stop it from referring to itself in the 1st person. I think it's a big part of why, the more I use it, the less impressive it is. Because I'm not being slowly suckered into thinking it's my friend. It's just a tool. One that often sucks.

I don’t like self-appointed messiahs Nokes. They summon my inner rage in a particular form. Whether they are neon vortex messiahs, blood tide messiahs, stone circle messiahs - they are always the worst type of pisspuffin. I wish we could skip to the crucifixion stage. - #DICallaghan

Make-up covered the cuts for the wedding day but everyone was shook up.

RFK is personally responsible for a measles outbreak killing American kids. Stephen Miller has killed more undocumented people than we will know until his tribunal. Pete Hegseth is nerfing anyone in a skiff within 95 miles of Cuba. They get away with it because they are committed to the performance.

I quit on day 3 at the Readers Digest mail sorting factory. Day 2, I wore earbuds, because the machines were too loud for conversation but the job was mind-numbing. The next day I was told I wasn’t allowed to wear earbuds, so I quit. (It was so long ago, I believe I was playing tapes on a Walkman.)
