This has just led me on a trip exploring the @specnext.com as I dabble my way into the retro scene and revisit my childhood.

I was just pondering.
I’m an old-school album-oriented guy - full album, all at once, played start-finish. So I like the mass title/cover/pre-order line-up.
But nowadays it’s all about the single - multiple sets of hypewagon to remind us along the way to the final release.
Which way do you lean?

“Please contact us and provide some delivery details!” they ask when the street name sign is literally in my hedge at the front of my house 🤦♂️

Hold the line! Hold!! HOLD!!! 🚪
Defo do a cover reveal, maybe with those partially ripped page teases we sometimes get in advance of the full reveal. They’re a lot of fun. Cover hype 🤩

My last band wrapped my “Judge Dredd Megazine” issue into a bit of a round pipe. I very promptly tore the band off so I could straighten out the magazine 🤓 No curve in my comic books, thank you very much.

Any risk of them thinking you’re a bit odd for handing back a ball of rubber bands? 😅
I’ve actually been using the bands to gather up aluminium poles (used for garden infrastructure) in Winter when I store stuff in the garage. They don’t keep well out in the cold so a steady supply helps me out.

I use that one a lot, but I’ve not figured out if I can combine with another e.g. “from:username to:me bla” (or mentions:me). I’m often trying to find something I know somebody told me, but it’s long since lost in my notifications
Adding a useful reference for anybody else that happens to see this:

Hype! 🤩
I can go to 🛌 now, over & out! 🫡 (11:36pm as I type from my outdoor picnic bench as it’s too warm inside here too).

As much as I use my device to access the Intertubes, I’m not a reader (or gamer really) on it. Only when I absolutely cannot avoid it.
I downloaded loads of those Reactor Magazines to my Kindle, but they just vanish into that digital debris depository.
Leaning Tower needed reinforcement this week!

Same re. “Dayworld”! In fact, more details here 👇
I rarely dip into classic SFF so most of my haulage/reading does tend towards the more recent, you’re not wrong.

🔖 I have just completed “The Triton Run” by @paulsedwards.bsky.social!
We all have our niche sub-genre interests and this ✅ so many of mine. I wanted on that second flight of the Skydancer so much 🤗
Everything is going to be okay, as I’m already looking forward to 📗

Maybe they’ll have other favourite words, such as ‘the’! 😜

This just reminded me that I’ve seen a few crochet book blankets, such as this epic thread by @jackireads.bsky.social.

The heat has definitely helped speed things along this year.
The top three pictures are from plants growing outside, uncovered. Bottom two are under glass which I keep as wide open as possible because 🥵

I was incredibly late getting my Marigolds going 🤦♂️ and they’re not quite well developed enough to survive in the heat of the GH 🥵 so I’m a bit behind there. Something I’ll fix for next year.
I hadn’t realised Nasturtiums were an alternative. I planted mine out in the flower beds 🤦♂️🤦♂️ 😆

I reckon I must have had it for a great many years - decades even. Might have come from a Cargo Homeshop, back in the day. I’m still using a plate set that I got from them, and that is definitely over a quarter century old now.
Yellow is my favourite colour, so expect to see it a lot 🥰

I think you may be utilising my personal stash of them, though to be fair I lack the special power that is needed to make them work for me 🦸
