Why aren't Advent-style calendars for January a thing? If there was ever a month that needs a little door to open every day with a chocolate inside, it's the 97 days of January πŸ˜’

I keep expecting a cut to a scene of Lynch arriving in the red room 😞

If there's anything I hope young creatives take from David Lynch, it's to reject the modern IP-driven impulse to explicitly explain and cleanly categorize the logic behind every single event and decision inside and outside of a story at least some of the time.

Watching Blur on TOTP2 1997 and I've remembered why 18yo me was obsessed with Damon Albarn πŸ₯΅ 😍

Best chrimbo card ever, thanks @joshrchards.bsky.social πŸ˜πŸ˜‚

This could be my autobiography.. if I ever actually wrote one

What are we gonna do when bluesky wants to make money? πŸ˜•

Come on Daily Mail. Classic sandwishes are boring. You can't beat a Hamnesty International or an LGBLT. (@mrjamesob.bsky.social)

Elon Musk’s Grok saying that Elon Musk is the worst spreader of misinformation has to be one of the best news stories of the year πŸ˜„ fortune.com/2024/11/14/g...

Bluesky will attract bad actors, it's not immune. The good news is you don't have to block them one by one, Bluesky has moderation lists managed by others (or even you) to help you mass block accounts as they turn up. All you need to do is visit the list, hit subscribe, then choose block or mute.

- Then tell me, future boy, who's President of the United States in 2025? - Donald Trump - Donald Trump? The RAPIST? Who's the attorney general? Matt Gaetz?

Guys I'm not calling them skeets. Get fucked πŸ˜‚ if Twitter has given up on the word tweet then it's ours now

Given the news about trump's government appointments, anyone who thought a Republican vote would 'end the genocide' is going to look a bit silly. A rabid Fox News host as defence secretary?!

I've just had a (some) mince pie(s) with maple syrup (the proper stuff) drizzled on and let me tell you, I shan't ever be able to go back. #MapleSyrup needs to join cinnamon, ginger, etc as part of the standard Christmas flavour profile 🀀
