I'm at a meeting where people keep talking about feedback, and I'm having a hard time not going "EEEEEEEYOOOOWWWWWW" in imitation of guitar feedback. I really don't think I'm cut out for adulthood. How do I opt out?

Figuring out how to make my solo ttrpg work and thinking an inventory based system like Backpack Heroes is gonna be my way. Inventerry, the bag mimic really is a fun little weirdo.

My first ever 2" carving! This is Jinjin the cave troll. The goblins think she's their prisoner. She doesn't speak goblin and is just following these funny green guys because they're good at finding things for her to smash and/or eat. I'm sure that'll turn out fine. #whittling #troll #woodcarving

We've just been given access to Copilot at work! I had a look at the GitHub help page and there are all kinds of exciting options: Copilot in your IDE, Copilot in the CLI, Copilot in GitHub Mobile... Unfortunately they're missing the one option I wanted, "Copilot in the Bin Where it Belongs" #noai

This is not even close to being finished, but the face made me giggle childishly 😂

Marry a science teacher and NEVER BE BORED AGAIN. The frozen snake food had some dry ice packets in the box 😁

I can't be the only one looking at all the fuss and memes about how Gen Z uses language, and thinking "pfft, Molesworth was doing that 70 years before it was cool as any fule no chiz chiz". Just me? 😁 #molesworth

It's World Pangolin Day! I'm very fond of pangolins, as you can see from my logo (created by @emilyjaneart.bsky.social), and there's a bit of a story as to why. So, in honour of this fine animal, let me tell you the tale of how I almost didn't get to be a software developer because of a pangolin.

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

If you see this, post something purple. I'm not sure this fine chap counts but he's the most purple carving I have on hand. He was supposed to be a nutcracker, but it went a bit wrong, so I decided to make him a squid instead. My friends call him "the nutkraken" 🤣 #whittling #squid (well kinda)
