My god, it's been 10 years and I still don't have an ending for this fucking short story.

I am calling for a ban on the word 'vibes' by basically everybody until we have had a chance to properly study its effects

I have been a fan of @liamjhogan.bsky.social's stories for a while now so really excited to start reading his new collection from @northodoxpress.bsky.social

THIS IS SHOCKING - the financial links between MPs and the private healthcare sector. We have just completed research showing that... MPs received more than £2.7m in donations from individuals and companies directly or indirectly connected to the private healthcare sector between 2023 and 2025 🚨

2025 is the year I start giving up on books that aren't worth my time rather than sticking it out, starting with this inexplicably popular urban fantasy novel. Begone!

Was told by a colleague I look like Elon Musk, so that's my day/week/month ruined

Still getting used to posting on BlueSky with any degree of regularity but here is Tony Bell's brilliant performance of my @liarsleague.bsky.social story about alchemy and some slightly more 'base' things. I am really proud of how this one turned out! youtu.be/dWbMYNL8TVg?...

I still have to go on Twitter/X for work and I absolutely despise it. Just immediately get hit with a load of far-right crap every time.

Great fun rehearsing LITTLE MAN with author @rhystimson.bsky.social & actor Tony Bell. If you like creepy, funny, oddly poignant stories involving frogs, alchemists & knob gags this is your niche choice. See it live THIS TUE 8 Oct at The Phoenix W1. £5 tix here: www.liarsleague.com/liars_league...

Come along to Liars League on 8 Oct for some spooky stories, including my tale of alchemy and artificial life! It may or may not be a bit gross.

Used ChatGPT today to transcribe text from an image of an archive article. Although superficially great, it has just randomly changed wording or rewritten sentences entirely in places, in two instances totally inverting the meaning. Do people understand how fallible this software is?

I know I can just ignore it, but I find Kindle's 'achievements' system to be really annoying. We don't need to gamify everything. I can just enjoy reading for reading's sake

My Fitbit thinks I was mountain biking while I was watching PJ Harvey and it won't be told otherwise

My son is watching a lot of Horrible Histories at the moment and as a result I keep absent-mindedly singing 'chatty Death, chatty Death' when out and about. Getting some weird looks.

Have uninstalled Twitter. Enough is enough.

Email from Avanti reminding me I will be travelling with them tomorrow is more of a threat than a promise

Anyone know of an easy way of transferring accounts I follow on Twitter/X to here or is doing it manually the only way to go? Kind of sick of Musk
