New friend joined us for lunch at the ISAS canteen! This is the “Comet Interceptor” mission in Lego! The mission has a mothership developed by ESA and two small probes, one by ESA and one by JAXA. The plan is to take images from a bunch of angles of a long period comet (from the Oort Cloud, baby!).

Oh also if you're in Tunbridge Wells there are two signed copies of the paperback of The Red Scholar's Wake. (Which I honestly wasn't expecting to still see on the shelves, and facing forward at that!) Cc @gillianredfearn.bsky.social @gollancz.bsky.social

There are old jokes about, when you walk into an empty room, saying "Computer, End Simulation" or "I know you're listening!". But just now upon entering a new space I found myself calling "Hey Google, are you listening? Alexa, are you there?" and truly, this world we built for ourselves is haunted

Happy Pride Month to everyone else who is also chronically ill and high risk and unable to participate in Pride Month festivities because folks won't mask. I see you. Your love is still valid. And to everyone else who can safely attend events this month, please mask up.

Summer is coming (even if the nice weather has just left), and so might be the next covid wave. Whether you're continuing to mask or want to come back to it, we can help you out with masks to try, places to source them, or help if you're ill! Message us or email [email protected]
