Managed to point a telescope at the Sun, during a quieter moment this morning. Had planned to hitch a camera for a direct photo rather than this projection effort, but the seeing went off soon after. 🔭 1/2

Nottingham university looking quite nice today

Looking over the lake to one of the buildings of Nottingham university (no idea what it is!) past two Chinese dragon statues. Two orange autumnal trees frame the building.

Rather than just sit on my kap, our cat has developed the habit of sticking his arse in my face for minutes at a time while he pads away with his toe spikes.

It’s true. We are publishing a mini-collection by this talented writer. Normally we publish stories singly, in pairs. If that makes sense. Something made us break that pattern.

Neuroscientist Dr Susan Barry has just been asked a very odd question: “Do you think you can imagine what it's like to see the world with 2 eyes?” Her reply: “Yes, of course. I'm a college professor, I teach about it in class. I think I know exactly what it is I'm missing.” She's dead wrong. 1/

Interesting morning commute. Once a week I get up at 5am and drive to Manchester. Takes about 1hr 50. Today I got 3 miles from work and got stuck in a 3.5 hour standstill, then got stuck in an endless crawl through Sale. Turned around and came home. 7 hour commute to my own house.

Been watching progs from BBC4 Collections. There's some great documentaries in there from the past 60+ years. Social history in every frame. Eg. Cities of Europe, London: We Live by the River: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00s8qlf via @bbciplayer

They're calling me 'the British David Sedaris', which is lovely but a crucial differences between us is that a ticket to see him will cost you £60 whereas a ticket to see me at @chorltonbookfest.bsky.social on 16/9 will cost you a max of £6. So, you can afford to see us both. Link below. #booksky

Every time I read this bio of Richard D James it sets my teeth on edge: Richard D James, best known as Aphex Twin, is far and away one of the most celebrated and influential electronic musicians of all time. How can you be "far and away" "one of the most"?
