Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 14hReally enjoyed Susan Calman's standup this evening. Highly recommended and, well, just good fun. She knows her audience :) 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Come back, Lucy. Late 1970s, UK children's TV (ITV, I think). The titles where Lucy has no face gave young me quite the creeps. 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Really enjoying The Comedy Bureau - learning about comedy is unsurprisingly fun! I'm doing it just through my ears, but this is also on YouTube. If you'd missed it, like I had, give it a look. Episode webpage: www.youtube.com/@The.Comedy.... Media file: episodes.captivate.fm/episode/00af...youtube.com 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 04/10/2026"They were asking for it.". Let's blame the victims, not the perpetrators. Smh 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I am truly torn here. #Halite is just so good and useful and not thought about as much as it deserves... But #cuprite is so pretty and interesting. 031
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Yes...it's largely traveling by footpath, which is odd. It's definitely not using proper roads 020
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I only know the bits by me, but there is a really random one that I'm pretty sure doesn't exist going from lepe to calshot before driving into the sea via a country house (Cadland Estate). (Very South coast, south of Southampton, west side of Southampton water) 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Nice shot. And really interesting road with cool angles/perspectives. 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 10/09/2026That's the sort of thing which would get me to vote for the fungus, #pyromorphite can claim nothing here. Vote #gypsum ;) 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 09/09/2026@smolrobots.bsky.social I get a little joy every time I run a tutorial and know my students will get to use these delightful bots. Thanks again for your artistry and for being you. 040
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 08/09/2026So glad I'm not the only one to actively tell myself what my partner is wearing and what to look for! (But just the aphantasia here, afaik, even if I do listen to "it's a superpower?!") 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Oh no! I know he'd mentioned he was considering it. Sad to hear it's properly ending. Such an amazing back catalogue, though. 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Oh wow! I've missed this. (Still a bit narked that bravo two Charlies wasn't, to my knowledge, broadcast outside of Wales - would've thrived, I think, on R4) 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I'm ridiculously slow and almost always need a hint or three... But it's still one of my favourite daily games. Heartily recommended to all 110
Reposted by ProfflesD. Haywick🍁⚒️🎨 @sedhead402.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Quartz has been a vital resource for human civilization for a couple of thousand years. Longer if you include cryptocrystalline varieties of SiO2 (cutting tools). Asagiite is like what? 4 years old? It can afford to wait a few years. Vote quartz. #mincup26 0448
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Oh wow. Id be proud to have taken that shot (and on film, too!) 090
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Team #azurite ... I mean I am always tempted by an underdog, but azurite is just so blue! 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Just checked into a premier inn... Windows open and two fans blowing on max with heavy air freshener in the air... Probably not a good sign. 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Normally you brighten my day: but ending on the devastating missing of the muffin?! Thanks so much for these ;) 130
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Maybe. But it again echoes: to combat bad guys with guns/glasses we just need more good guys with guns/glasses. I'm not as optimistic that this is the wise way forwards... It also would reward the creators of the glasses who profit from them. 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 19/08/2026The Australians did get it right, too. This is mainly a USA problem, tbh. 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 19/08/2026It's attempting solving a problem by increasing it. Can't help but think it's better to get rid of them. Same with guns, but then, that's pretty much what my country did after a school shooting in the 90s. 120
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Scary parallels with the perpetual usa solution to guns, being more guns. 111
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Oo nice. Subscribed. Can never have too many podcasts with Robin Ince. 110
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Hoping for clear skies for you. Mars is one of my favourite naked eye, night sky objects. 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I mean we have a lot of work to do as could've done much more... But renewables are a decent part of the mix in the UK at the mix. We're not where we should be, but it's not utterly hopeless 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 09/08/2026A31 closed. Vehicle fire. But it had set some of the surrounding heathland alight. Hopefully firefighters will contain it and everyone's ok 020
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Can't believe that's real with its correctly placed apostrophe! 010
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 01/08/2026I started with Pratchett with "dark side of the sun" and strata... But it's the Tiffany books I return to most often. They are magical and deeply human. His finest... Bar, perhaps, Nation. 0100

Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Memories of an episode of I'm sorry i haven't a clue, I think the Uxbridge dictionary section. "Theodolite", the rear lamp of The Goodies bicycle. 100
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 17/07/2026"Sharing a ‘Binface pledge card’ on socials, Alastair Campbell said these promises would exploit Farage’s weaknesses" Don't think officially adopted by binface: just recommended by Alistair Campbell on The Rest is Politics podcast. 000
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Ed, you ok probably know this, but for your followers who don't: those pledges were from Alistair Campbell and what he would advise binface to pledge from "The Rest is Politics" podcast. I don't think binface himself has actually pledged them 100

Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Was he realistically supposed to say no? Diplomatically, how would that have gone? 100
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 11/07/2026You just know some people will use this as evidence to suggest progressive people are "snowflakes". 020
Proffles @proffles.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Unpleasant take on the politically left-right difference. Ignores any correlation of becoming progressive and aware of injustice and ones own suffering. Empathy. 100
