The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed. There was a shimmer - a demon appeared. "Curious. What ritual is this?" "I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!" "I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.

I don’t need to go into space, it’s none of my business. I’m a big Earth guy, I can’t get enough of her work. Daffodils! Are you kidding me? Bison! Miraculous. Sending a slinky down the stairs? Incredible. Mariachi music? Yes, please.

Really enjoying this today - new Ironrat. Fuzzy, sludgy, doom. Meets my mood nicely. #metalsky

This is a bit grim. We create a nice new public open space at Haymarket - then these vultures sweep in to stuff advertising into the eyes of people using our new space. There will be no peace left.

Needed to blow the Christmas cobwebs away. Walk in the countryside with Gatecreeper on my headphones for company did the trick. Can recommend. (Dark Superstition is a great album). #metalsky

Just finished listening to Service Model by @aptshadow.bsky.social on @librofm.bsky.social Enjoyed this immensely. Issac Asimov’s logic meets Douglas Adam’s wit with a compelling ethical and moral twist. Also excellent narration, which can really make an audio book.

Re: mendacious politician covering his behaviour by claiming to be "spectrummy..." This is why certain fictional depictions of autism irritate me, because they build a model of "treating people like shit = great genius and neurodivergent". There is a lot of neurodivergence in....

People SERIOUSLY need to stop using neurodivergence as an excuse for being a cunt. It's grotesque.
