They look amazing but as my daughter would say, a bit ‘spenny’!

You are like the final scene in Raiders - every time I open Bluesky, here's some more original creative work you've created!

I occasionally end up over there when I’m sent a link and it’s still full of Edu folk, blindly ignoring ALL OF THE MASSIVE RED FLAGS because of their numbers.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

Even I couldn’t believe it. Until I was actually there, I was wondering if I had made a massive mistake with an artist’s name (which has happened before, to me!). ‘We watch the stars’ lives in my soul.

This is a victim of relatability. You see fish everywhere; on TV, on menus, fish and chips. Games Workshop has a very health but private niche. It’s just doesn’t get the eyeballs fish does, making it seem less valuable as a whole.

In this article, every single Pupil Progress meeting I ever sat in is perfectly described, even down to the ‘ingenious SLT solutions’ line which made me guffaw.

Today is #StomaAwarenessDay - here’s what I’ve learnt in the past nine weeks: - mine is called Sven (when he’s good). Getting him quite literally saved my life. - I have to wear a small bag almost all the time, as I have no control over my output.

Many thanks!

Same. In truth, the post surgery pain was far worse than the stoma by some magnitude!

Stephen Lockyer @mrlockyer.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Weirdly, no issue at all! I bought some cotton covers to make the crinkly sound quieter, but aside from that, fine!

- I’m not ashamed of it, and will always happily answer questions about any aspect of having one, especially since the knowledge I had about them was a mix of myth and ignorance. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!

- Again, it saved my life. I do hate it, but my friends and family have been amazingly supportive. This has made having one so much easier. - some friends didn’t know what to say, so said nothing. This is not a good sign as a friend. Grow a pair and send a text.

- Because I have no control over my output, I never know when I need to change my bags, so I always have a change kit on me (not a problem, love a bag). - The surgery had a massive impact on me mentally, which I’m still struggling with (but it’s getting better). I’m v anxious about public toilets.

- The bags are about the size of a crisp packet, and are changed a few times a day. - They are practically invisible, don’t smell and are pretty quiet 99% of the time. - Having a stoma has ruined my deep sea diving career, but nothing else is off! I can run, cycle, hike, climb and have sex.

I am going to test it out again. Some different variables (ran earlier, alcohol) to play with. It would be a shame but it’s not insurmountable.

Sad times. First time post-surgery for a curry. Seems like the last time for me too. Spicy food and Sven the #stoma do NOT get on!
