We're hiring! We're looking for a Writer and Narrative Designer to join the Fallen London team at a senior or mid level. This position is permanent, remote, and full time, which for us means 35 hours a week. #GamesJobs
Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

In the bluesky posting system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the shitlibs who post AI content and support Gavin Newsom, and the shitposters who offend them. These are their posts. SKEET SKEET

Bluesky as a university dormitory: you wander the halls overhearing snippets of ridiculous conversations, some folks are studying, some watching sports, tankies are tanking, foodies are fooding. People up past their bedtimes. Sometimes, you overhear a truly great joke. Everyone is procrastinating.

I have received news of a perfectly named cafe located on the waterfront of Nova Scotia's capital, if you know what I mean
"Broken Man cafe" sign on a big plate glass window, through which one can see cafe tables and chairs and backs of people's heads. In the distance, a sign indicates that this is Pier 22 on the Halifax waterfront

This makes sense to me not only because of its generosity, but because she was a great understander of the intricacy of the relationship between mind and body and self-image and external image, and of the primacy of *deciding for yourself* and being at peace above all else.

These two are the same insect, 26 minutes apart. The picture on the left is the regular appearance. The one on the right is what the insect looks like after it is scared and produces a chemical that spreads between its body and its elytra. 🌿🌱 #beetle #insect
A side by side composite image of a beetle. The image on the left shows a gold beetle with some reddish iridescence. The one on the right looks blue with a gold spot in the middle. These are tortoise beetles so they have clear elytra that extend well beyond the shape of its body like a helmet.
