I wonder how many more “once in a lifetime” weather events I’m going to experience in my lifetime?

Love the first character voted for! With every non-TB character to pick from, of course we collected decided Amnesiac was the best

As a newer member of the respiratorally inhibited crew, I’m proud of recognising this morning’s cough as asthmatic, certainly triggered by the cold weather.

This is such a lovely thread to catch up on with your coffee/while waiting for the windscreen to defrost

Enter the year that you turned 10 into the GIF bar to see what was popular back then

Happy New Year Halflings! We’re already making moves, with our own @jeremycobb1.bsky.social giving @theguardian.com a breakdown of the implications of the changes in new D&D rule sets! Yee - and dare we say it - haw!3 www.theguardian.com/games/2025/j...

It’s over 1,000km from Berlin to Paris There’s now a direct daytime train between them, that takes 8 hours and costs just €59. Leave at 10am, arrive 6pm. And… it’s just 1% the carbon emissions of the equivalent flight www.euronews.com/travel/2024/...

If you don’t know about sheet garters yet, get on it!

Aha, it’s that time of year again to tell those of you who enjoy The Traitors to check out Blood On The Clocktower, a social deduction game like no other that has definitely not been my hyper-fixation for nearly 2 years now 🙂‍↔️

The Traitors is back on our tellies tonight, and though it remains the nation's darling, Social Deduction games can get stale, fast. Especially this one. Here's a 🧵of ten ways Studio Lambert could freshen the format...

Me: check out this new instrument, you play it by waving your hands around! My theremin: OOOOOoooo

If anyone is playing Clocktower to see in the new year, I’ve made a script just for you!
