I'll second that recommendation. Tiny Tina was quite correct in BL2: crumpets ARE crunk.

So yeah, there were puppets on #StarTrek last week. Worth noting, however, is that it ALSO had Rachael Harris and Joe Lo Truglio. Hell yeah! #Lucifer #Brooklyn99

So, my wife's birthday present was this, a trip to London to see Wicked. She massively enjoyed it, which was the point of the whole exercise. I enjoyed it far more than I was expecting to, which is much less important, but still nice.

The stage at the Apollo Theatre in London, with a fantastic dragon above it. We had good seats.

I know it's not finished and things may change, but this place they're building opposite the Tower - it's modelled on a pair of tits, yeah?

My girl Remi has been very lonely since Boo died, but now we have a mischief again - welcome Tilly and Ruby! Introductions have gone well and now they've moved in. There has been much bruxing, boggling and mutual grooming. #RatLife #PetRats

Almost exactly ten years since this absolute banger from @astrokatie.com

Katie Mack: Honestly climate change scares the heck out of me and it makes me so sad to see what we're losing because of it.

Gary P Jackson: Maybe you should learn some actual SCIENCE then, and stop listening to the criminals pushing the global warming SCAM!

Katie Mack: I dunno, man, I already went and got a PhD in astrophysics. Seems like more than that would be overkill at this point.

I have a great many memories of fighting and doing the commentary for the Legends jousters under that tree. Sad times.

Happy Neil Banging Out The Tunes Day! In honour of this 20th anniversary, here's my old boy Rubble from nine years ago, not that interested in a jam. (Accidental camera flash, hence the weird looking eyes.) #PetRats #RatSky

Very well said! Dr. Mae Jemison, real-life astronaut, said that she was inspired as a child by seeing Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura. I can't think of a better way of showing how much representation matters! (She went on to become the first astronaut to appear on Star Trek in a cameo on TNG.)

This is Boo, the incredible rat burglar. Anything she can physically move is fair game, and she can move quickly when she wants to. Her greatest skill is the swift theft and unwrapping of fortune cookies.

One of my Christmas presents was the Star Trek: Lower Decks card game, 'Buffer Time'. I'll admit I'm already three glasses of pinot grigio in before we opened the box, but it does seem to be taking a while to figure it out.

I wish I could claim the credit for it, but it's just an old tweet which has lived in my head for far longer than I would have thought.

Are you alright?

Boo decided to join us as the alarms went off this morning, which was nice of her. To do that, she somehow escaped the cage and made it upstairs. God knows how long she's had the run of the house. Prick. (Remi stayed at the cage. She's a good girl, at least!)
