I don't think he's got the right complexion of a tan suit.

My washing machine has an app, but I've never used it. I just put clothes in it and turn it on.

Part of CRYPT is that even if Y is yellow it means it's probably the fifth letter, as most 5 letter words with Y end in Y.

Also I always start with CRYPT because, and this might seem counterintuitive, but it has no vowels but a lot of common consonants. If that doesn't get any hits I flip to AUDIO for the opposite reason. Usually pretty easy from there

A drag king, who is a trans man, was recently telling me about he's planning a 12th Doctor show.

I know a lesbian who does a Magic/D&D group called Magic the GAYthering.

The last time I did a Magic draft there plenty of queer people. I played against a bi guy who flirts with me., (It was the LotR set and I drafted Orcs)

I used to do the Quick Crossword in a newspaper I don't read anymore regularly and I got to know the initials of the compilers and their taste in word play.

I didn't get today's Connections and they were all so obtuse. As a friend put it, sometimes Connections can be things like "what you might find in a bakery in regional Minnesota"

They should do an adaption of Fevre Dream. It's not a long novel and it could be fit into a single one-shot season.

And that sometimes a gun is more effective than a sternly worded letter.

So Neon Genesis Evangelion but with less giant monsters?

That someone who can misunderstand Tolkien has atrocious grooming like that is, well, not surprising

It's always time to look at Uber prices when Nagash arrives.

I've been into my local sex shop and said "my video tapes are filthy" and the person there knew what I was after.

I'm always amazed at the lengths USA (well, GOP) governments go to make voting difficult. It's so easy to vote in Australia.

Remember his fixation on the expired doge meme?

I'm in Australia and never actively studied USA history and I think I've casually picked up more than most Americans.

That's the core of it. It's not that he's attracted to men or women (or boys or girls). They're just people he can rape.

So..who's the bride and who's the groom?

William @whirringsoftly.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

I replace my phone often but have used the prepaid recycling bag. I give them to friends/family or keep them around as an emergency spare. Seems I have been doing it right.

It has been commented that Trump will only make "a deal" if he's the only person who benefits.

How exactly do you enforce an asexual?

I've never read his books but I've always been put off by Serious Young Men performatively reading them in public, often apparently whilst waiting for a date to arrive.
