I swear to god I just heard a Korok laugh.

A bucolic green valley in Switzerland. It looks like something from Breath of the Wild.

Yeah, okay, fair play Switzerland.

A view from a grassy rooftop garden looking down over the Lauterbrunnen valley in Switzerland. My feet are just poking in at the bottom of the frame.

Don’t mind me, just doing some holiday research.

The cover of the book “Asterix In Switzerland”. Asterix and Obelix are hiding in a safe with the door ajar. Gold coins surround them, Asterix is sniffing a white flower, Obelix has a wheel of cheese.

Yes, as soon as I got it home I went straight to Moopsy. #LowerDecks

I call this “Self portrait, with science”

A brick wall in bright sunlight. Casting two shadows are a colander showing multiple crescents of the partial solar eclipse, and my head.

New book smell… breathe it in… (Thanks to my wonderful local bookshop @caper.fun)

Two books sitting on a table side by side. On the left The Art Of Star Wars Andor, on the right Scriptnotes, a book about screenwriting.

An upcoming Laika release is always cause for excitement, so getting this unexpected extra in my @empiremagazine.bsky.social subs delivery has made my day.

Heading back to Oxford after an excellent time at #WebDayOut, catching up with old friends, making new ones, and lots of brain food.

A piano painted in Pride colours, adorned with stars and hearts. It has a sign saying “Play Me” across the top, but the lid is padlocked. It’s giving a real mixed messages vibe.

Any conference in Brighton should start with a bracing seafront walk. And today was very bracing! #WebDayOut

Thank you Brighton and #FFConf, a great time was had as always.

When one is in Vancouver one must do the Fringe pilgrimage.

Leaving a little joy in the codebase for future me.

A python test that checks for invalid system languages. It's checking for the Star Wars languages Ghor and Shyriiwook.

Hello Leeds, lovely to be back. I don’t think I’ve ever had to pack sunscreen for @heypresents.com before.

Leeds Post Office Square, surrounded by buildings. The sky is a deep blue with wispy clouds. People are milling about enjoying the sun.

Good work Wikipedia editor. A+, no notes.

The Wikipedia page for Pogonophobia, the fear of beards. The illustrative image is of Friedrich Engels sporting a large beard, and the caption reads "Friedrich Engels; a man with a big beard"

I love the random crisp flavours that turn up in my local corner shop.

Is it really a screening of Hundreds Of Beavers if an actual beaver doesn’t sit in front of you?

The view from the third row of the Ultimate Picture Palace cinema. In the background is the screen, just in front is a guy in a yellow beanie, and someone in a giant beaver costume.

Productive visit to my local bookshop. That’s my weekend sorted. Thank you @ryannorth.ca @kierongillen.bsky.social @stephaniehans.bsky.social @claytoncowles.bsky.social for putting lovely things into the world.

@ryannorth.ca @chrisfenoglio.bsky.social Warp Your Own Way was a big hit at the comic book club this month. I thought you’d like to see a couple of photos of all the bookmarks, and re-reading at the table 😊

Oh cool! #uksnow OX4 6/10. Really didn’t think it was going to make it this far south today. It’s big boots and coat weather!

Two black garden chairs and a small table sit in front of a hedge. Everything is covered in a dusting of snow. Out of focus flakes can be seen falling into frame.

This is a great run down of the why and how. Plus it comes with an excellent how-to graphic. www.perkins.org/resource/how...

An infographic explaining that good alt text is about identifying the subject, their expression (if applicable), the situation, and any interesting features. It is illustrated by a photo of a capybara with a lemon on its head.

It’s Sunday evening, I have a bit of a wine buzz on. Must be time for the second Evolution of Horror homework assignment.

Doing my homework before next week’s Evolution of Horror episode. I forgot how much I love this film. /cc @mikemuncer.bsky.social

The view from my sofa, my feet are at the bottom of the frame, resting on my coffee table, the TV on the wall shows a scene from Deep Blue Sea.

If you don’t hear from me this weekend it’s all @ryannorth.ca and @chrisfenoglio.bsky.social’s fault.

A copy of the Lower Decks “Warp Your Own Way” book by Ryan North and Chris Fenoglio is sitting on a table. Last month’s Empire film magazine is trying to get into shot at the top of the frame. It’s probably jealous.

Look, I'm not saying I'm *not* curious…

A blurb for a book called “Zombies Versus Aliens Versus Vampires Versus Dinosaurs” By Jeff Abugov

'"A chaotic, full-throttle parody that's as smart as it is slimy" (Kirkus Reviews): When an alien race shows up on Earth's doorstep hell-bent on destroying humanity, hordes of fearsome creatures rise from their hiding places to join the fray! An entertaining sci-fi read.’

Well, seen as everyone else is posting theirs (How has it only been just under a year and a half? Feels like we’ve all experienced a couple of lifetimes already)
