Personally, I'd never heard of Birmingham before this show.

Hey Gang! The incredible people at @distributeaid.org are putting together kits providing desperately needed supplies for trans people across the country. Me and 19 others have bundled some outstanding games together to raise money for this incredibly necessary project! itch.io/b/2889/hrt-h...

Rare!?! I see dozens of them every year. Here's a photo from a couple of weeks ago.

Can anyone look at this graphic and say that we do not urgently need rewilding on a massive scale?

Let’s see what motivates this guy to join DOG…oh

Political figures sharing AI-generated nonsense to support their spurious agendas should be censured. This “lorry” has: • Twenty wheels. • No door in the cab. • No trailer coupling. • A really weird tractor graphic.

From yesterday's Times Diary. A gem.

Not Newgrange but AI slop - it's actually FAR more impressive in reality. It's not a mush of mashed potato with some spinach on top, like a bad prop from a deleted scene in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind"

Turkeys announce strategic partnership with Christmas.

Prime Minister Chamberlain gave bits of Czechoslovakia to Hitler in 1938. The Czech government was not in the room. Hitler went and took the rest of it anyway. Peace in our time? You can never make a deal with murderous dictators.

It was called Gulf of Mexico for a reason. Mexico En 1794. #HistoryMatters

The Expanse S1E1

Going through old boxes, found this gem, still sealed. Anyone interested in taking it off my hands? #WarhammerCommunity #Warhammer #ToW #TheOldWorld

I don't appreciate being mocked, Sharon. #Caturday

I may be stuck in hospital for the next couple of days but unfortunately bills can't be paused so here I am to tell you about my ongoing sale where everything is 50% off. Or you can grab the whole shebang for £125. itch.io/s/147071/f-m...

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

I played the Traveller RPG a bit in the 80s and enjoyed the comic strip in White Dwarf (83-86). I recently found that all the episodes are online here - www.2000ad.org/markus/trave...

Can AI save Rioja’s next vintage?

SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS: Write books warning against a thing for sixty years THING: *Happens* MEDIA AND POLITICIANS: How could anyone possibly have foreseen this?

Happy Birthday sweet girl ❤️ *sniff*

Bought a book of old car sales brochures and had no idea Reliant were so filthy

Excellent. Next I'm listening to "The Conjure-Man Dies: A Harlem Mystery" by Rudolph Fisher (read by JD Jackson, John Chancer) on xigxag linkto.xigxag.co.uk/links/5ZTJ

For those unfamiliar: 5-6C is probably the end of human life. Not in a "we'll have really bad wars and be really poor and not get to live in nice houses" way (that's 3-4C), but in the sense of "the seas may very likely no longer sustain to the plankton that make most of the oxygen we breathe" way.

Fancy battling a horde of zombies in a tavern? I’m running a Shaun of the Dead style #DnD death match as @concretecow.bsky.social are holding a games day in Milton Keynes Games, stalls, fun, frolicking & a charity raffle for Alzheimer’s Research Why not just come along?
