I’ll open at 8pm-there’ll be just 30 of each calendar design in this print run 🌿

That was fun! I've lived in 41 different homes in 66 years, and stayed in many more, so lots of red and orange in my map. Thank you @levparikian.bsky.social for writing about National Biscuit Day, and for this! Link to fun map game here: levparikian.substack.com/p/six-things...

My Etsy shop's now open for a v. limited print run of half calendars of my tiny posy & botanical photos. I design my photos using recent neuroscientific research so that looking at them alleviates stress & lift mood. Each calendar=6 very high quality frameable prints: www.etsy.com/uk/shop/silv...

brb going to visit this page and only this page for the rest of my natural life

Ok, but if the dishwasher is wrong, that’s fair, right?

tbpottery.co.uk is at the Island Centre in St Ives until 4pm, along with several other makers, all local to SW Cornwall. Beautiful and functional pottery.🏺 RTs always appreciated by these little local artists

Hey, Unbound authors: did you get this copy of the statement of creditors?

I'll be opening my Etsy at 8pm for 1/2 calendars (July-Dec) of my tiny posy & botanical photos. I design my images using recent research so that looking at them alters brain biochemistry to alleviate anxiety 1 calendar=6 frameable prints I ship anywhere; small print run www.etsy.com/uk/shop/silv...

If you want a crowd funded indie press that actually gives money to authors, check out Space Wizard Science Fantasy. The year I published my short story with them, they exceeded their Kickstarter and immediately *increased* the payout to anthology contributors.

Remember: if your #Pride event does not require respirators, it is inaccessible— not to mention, frankly dangerous as hell with this current disease soup y’all are breathing freely without masks. A LOT of queer folks are disabled and high risk. Stop leaving us behind.

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

Hopefully a massive class action lawsuit that cleans up the publishing industry once & for all. I remember @bootstrapcook.bsky.social being totally ripped off a few years back too.

I’d like to have my disappointment that he’s still not Northern Irish, or indeed ginger noted. And I’m hoping that Cameron Chapman is in everyone’s future Dr wish list. The boy can fence

Just got smallest boy to watch the Dr Who finale, absolute roller coaster for him. He is sad to see 15 go, was delighted 13 got to visit, and was told he was allowed a sectioned swear at the end and he exercised that right very enthusiastically. He’s looking forward to see what’s next.

I'm just putting this out there for the youtubers among you: if I see AI Art in the thumbnail, I instantly click "do not recommend this channel"

The IPP scandal was described as “a stain on our justice system” by the last Justice Secretary “an egregious miscarriage of justice & psychological torture” by UN rapporteur for torture & likely breaches Article 3 of the HRA & it’s happening RIGHT NOW thecriminaljusticeblog.com/2025/05/28/c...

Really enjoying this punchy, brisk expose: if you want to know why the (news) media is so shit and why media studies/ criticism should be taught in schools, look no further. Mic Wright names names (those dreadful columnists) and, unusually, admits his own complicity

The latest confected transphobia in The Times…😣 It’s written by Sanchez Manning - the OG trans-hostile “churnalist” 🙄 She lost her job at the Daily Mail and now pitches any piece of transphobic tat she can scrape together to the editors of the transphobic-for-profit UK media! 😖

To whom it may have been concerning…

Since we are talking about cool things one might enjoy — if you’re not playing BLUE PRINCE, please do. Deeply compelling roguelikeish puzzle game. Like if MYST had better puzzles and internal logic. (Fans of STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS will find some similar puzzles vibes too, I think.)

Today's AI overview ::head desk:: The thing with being search engine is that you can offload liability for wrong answers onto content creators. But when you created product GIVING the answers, it opens you up to liability. I am REALLY EXCITED for the day when the class action lawsuits hit
