Vote JLR, a podcast host for Europe!

It's like eurovision, only less problematic, and the costumes are...actually on par to be honest!
This is hilarious. I am one of two people nominated for best host, and the other person is Louis Theroux. It's done by public vote. Vote for me! We can do this!
Congratulations to @jlukeroberts.bsky.social, who has been nominated for Best Podcast Host at the Lovie Awards (the European version of the Webbys). He is up against Louis Theroux so we think he has a good chance! You can help JLR by voting here:

"Vietnamese Degraded Fat Boy Cook-off" seemed like it would be misleadingly concise in my safety engineering notes, but search engines successfully pointed me to the 1967 USS Forrestal Fire.

This auto DJ function just tried to crossfade from microtonal hyperpop into slow indie rock and...well, I appreciate the effort 😅

The latest batch of AI generated bluesky accounts, that I block as soon as they follow me, appear to be very similar blends of
- vaguely meditative/zen stuff
- woah nature is pretty
- deep dives into economic and political policy at the drop of a hat

Who are they imitating??

I had a bad dream last night that I ended up with a daily telegraph subscription, and didn't know how to responsibly dispose of it without anyone knowing.

We do produce some real mercenary shitbags of journalists in the UK.
However much you hate British media, it is not enough

We helped a friend run some cultural workshops at the Hyper Japan festival a while back, but couldn't participate while helping, so today we got to paint our own festival masks as thanks 😊

I may have ended up a bit luchador. Not complaining 😛

I love Big Walk, I really really do, I just can't play it for long in one sitting because I get so physically anxious with flashbacks to trying to keep track of cub scouts or summer camp kids when I was younger 🥲

Here's hoping I can overcome that a little as we play it more!

Our wonderful dog continues to be *far worse* than random chance when playing "guess which hand the cocktail sausage is in".

We're not sure what signals she's picking up from us but it took her more than a dozen guesses to get two sausages.

(out of two hands in total, to be clear)

Super proud today, I finally managed to not totally screw @drkuro.bsky.social over when paired with him on the evil team in a social deduction game 😁

I have ruined *so many* games for him in the past (and indeed any other evil compatriots)

I started replaying Yoku's Island Express yesterday, so I can only say that this delivery person needs pinball physics and a charming soundtrack 👍🏽

weirdly tempted to get the new Rhythm Paradise for Windows 98

Thanks Amazon? 😅

Rhythm Heaven has some throwback vibes but it doesn't go that far!

The 13th annual international Gender Census 2026 is now open until at least 13th August 2026!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

We tried watching Godspell and oh gods my days running a gospel choir are haunting me

Jesus has massive Jacob Collier energy and it is confusing.

Been playing more rhythm doctor

I love a game that's unafraid to make me cry too much to see the screen properly 'cause I should be able to play off of pure audio cues damnit 😅

In the recent People Make Games video about Jerry Gretzinger, @itsquinns.bsky.social described Jerry's densely annotated rulebook as carrying intense arcane weight.

@annasmithspark.bsky.social's care and effort here give me a similar vibe and I can't wait to borrow it for a deep swim in the lore 😊
Last year, @aptshadow.bsky.social said that A Sword of Bronze and Ashes by @annasmithspark.bsky.social was a book that felt like it lived beyond the pages. I won an auction for an annotated copy in support of @cymerafestival.co.uk

Today it arrived and was clearly made with a huge amount of love.

Jim Al-Khalili is one of the loveliest science communicators, I got to meet him back when I was at school, and I am very excited for his latest endeavour!

Wishing furries were real rn so I could be one

(London's heading for 38°C today)
WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE

I'M A FURRY

WITH A FURSUIT

AND A COOLING VEST AND COLLAR TO WEAR WITH THAT FURSUIT

IT IS PROBABLY NOT ILLEGAL TO WEAR THESE WHEN NOT FURSUITING

My Wikipedia app just manifested a "for you" page...

I've never used tiktok for a *reason*, I have ADHD, Wikipedia is addictive enough already!

Thankfully it's empty and I hope it stays that way 😅

Anyway, tl;dr: my brain works. It works really well. It does amazing things.

It is the context of the world I live in which makes me disabled.

Context makes Disability.

And trying to make my brain be a good student or employee is like making a falcon run a footrace.

Season 31 made me cry, in an excellent way, in under ten minutes.

An hour later it has left me sitting quietly, mentally tilled like fertile soil.

I don't want to spoil anything but I need to buy the dev several drinks and chat jovially about narrative expression through game mechanics.

Play. It.
