This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Before they started making ejection seats, Martin Baker experimented with what I can only call the "Yeet Seat"...
Concept drawings for a Martin  Baker Swinging Arm pilot ejection device.   It shows in four steps how the plane's canopy would jettison and then a long arm in the tail of the aircraft would fling the pilot up and over the plane to be able to parachute to safety...

St Lucy’s goggly eyes can’t believe it either.
We are looking at a close up of an oil painting of St Lucy. She is holding a pewter cake stand with two eye balls on it. They are surprised as anyone that they are on a cake stand.

We are looking at a close up of an oil painting of St Lucy. She is looking up to the stormy heavens with a melancholy look. She is wearing a pink robe with a brown shawl and her brown hair is tied up with a plait.

Ugh, we have one of those in our town as well. They went with a heavy biker and beard theme. The point that both (along with a skull) are part of the shop logo. Honestly, they look like they could also offer oil changes or posing as partner/spouse for a queer friend in social scenes as well...

UBI is a floor. It's a dividend. It's not about replacing jobs. It's about making sure everyone has a non-zero floor to stand on and never fall beneath, and it makes sure that everyone benefits from productivity growth. And it is about enabling everyone to *choose* what they work on, paid or not.

Maybe It Will Happen Today @today-maybe.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
An illustration done mostly with digital colored pencils. Ok, so we have a wooden coffin in the classic top-heavy hexagon shape. The coffin is propped up at an angle on nothing against a background of gray-blue paint splatters as a spooky sheet ghost rises out of it. Although it’s not a real sheet as it’s translucent and there’s nothing inside of it except a gape-mouthed green skull in the approximate head position within the sheet. The ghost is wearing a big. floppy, black witch’s hat and there’s a little brown bat hanging down from the wide brim. The ghost’s arms are extended holding a jack o’ lantern with a one-toothed frowny face carved into it. Popping out of the jack o’ lantern is a a black cat with green eyes balancing the cap of the pumpkin on his head. And on the stem of the pumpkin cap is a very serious-looking brown speckled owl. A series of spooky speech balloons is chained together around all this , each balloon containing one word and associating back tot he spooks and creatures named in the reverse order listed. The lettering in the balloons is red and drippy and reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."
