Well you should've tied them down better.
A sign in a shop, locally printed in a default word processor font on A4 paper saying “helium balloons are now upstairs”, stuck partially over a more corporate official-looking sign (red and yellow, parts of words that might be “for latest offers" visible) which has “boyesstores” in the corner, then a Facebook logo

18.45 HI-DE-HAIKUS
Behind sharp banter
Ted's loneliness echoes loud
A clown with no cheer

Peggy watches them dance
Yellow coats full of glory
Her dreams slip further

Between dance sets, hush
Barry jokes to hid the ache
Yvonne smiles, then sighs

Knobbly knees parade
Spike narrates to empty seats
Applause is long gone

Xylophone taps soft,
Gladys strikes notes to no-one
Silence hums along

It was curtain up on Friday so I can post pics of the last thing I worked on again. This one is on a smaller stage than most of the others but might have been the most intense build yet for *reasons*

Very odd not to be part of fit up of a build I’ve had a big hand in next week. But it’s also massive relief, it was bad enough putting it together the first time kinda glad I don’t have to take it down and put it back up a couple of rooms over.

Don't worry too much if you did badly in your A-levels, things could always be worse. For example you could have done badly in your A-levels and also have to drink beer from Jeremy Clarkson's brewery.

Always hilarious to me that the true story of JK Rowling's harrowing and #relatable story of writing while unemployed was actually "she was fired from Amnesty International (!!) for writing her dumb novel on company time" m.economictimes.com/magazines/pa...
A Failed Stint At Amnesty International
After graduating in French & Classics from Exter University in 1986, Rowling worked for a while at Amnesty International, doing translation work. However, she found the job tedious and spent a lot of her time, writing stories on the computer “when no one was looking!”

@playstation.com I’ve owned every PlayStation since the original. Most generations I’ve owned multiple consoles. I’ve been staunchly team PS in the the Xbox vs PlayStation wars for nearly 30 years. Going digital only means I’ll never buy another Sony console. I want to own my games not a license.

Tamonten @tamonten.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
Well, PlayStation moving digital only from 2028 probably means the PS5 is my last Sony console, which is a shame as I’ve been firmly camp PS (despite owning Xboxes too) since the original while at uni. :( #PlayStation

Thought of another fun exercise everyone can try: turn Bouba and Kiki (of the Bouba/Kiki Effect) into characters that fit your own tastes and interests
Characters Bouba and Kiki posing heroically. Bouba is round and soft and she wields a mace, and Kiki is sharp and angular and wields a sword.
