So Mozart wrote his 34th symphony for the occasion of visiting Prague, but he didn’t write his 41st symphony for visiting Jupiter

And in fact, as far as we know, he never even made it as far as low geosynchronous orbit

Kinda makes you think

Well THAT just now was so Australian I would like tea and Tim Tams to go with the barely repressed anger

These boots are made for walkin’

One of these days, these boots

@eredien Here's a formal recipe;

but this isn't in fact what I did - there's an Ottolenghi recipe for okra, and it's kind of similar, so I cooked up the okra, then added a batch of spices, storebought tomato sauce and a little vegetable stock to make a fairly thick soup.

People keep saying to stop Doomscrolling but idk if it were actually Doomscrolling it’d look more like this

From a DM to someone I know, over on Bluesky;

I'm not entirely sure how much I want to transition or whether occasionally getting rid of my body hair, use she/her pronouns, and wear skirts is enough. What I know for a fact; I'm never especially stoked about maleness, it's usually a fairly neutral description, but I HATE feeling like it's this role which I HAVE TO PERFORM because it's very important to someone ELSE that I perform it. You can see how recent events would be really stomping on that variety of dysphoria really hard.

... then I realized that's my baggage about childhood, adulthood in general. Who I AM doesn't matter, it's what I HAVE TO DO for some loud pushy ass adult who's decided what's mandatory now.

@Charlotte it's not about pastries?

@kurgarru sooooo at the beginning of the year you introduced me to the song, and as of today I found a surf guitar cover

TIRED: Orks are like The Hulk in being green muscly dudes punching stuff

WIRED: The Grinch is like The Hulk in being green dudes who like animals but would just like people to stop annoying them

INSPIRED: Orks are like The Grinch in being green dudes zipping around in structurally dubious red vehicles

Literally the second time this 40K lore video starting with “time to childproof the kitchen and stairs, here come the Emperor’s Children” prompts listening to

when you consider how completely un-fun being a Space Marine sounds* it's amazing they don't lose more Astartes to Slaanesh especially

* with the exception of the Space Wolves, who are definitely the fun chapter

@aeva *clicks*

@aeva which one is "I busted ass on adult things and I'm sure I'll have spoons again in a few hours which will then be depleted to near-zero by work tomorrow."

then I said [we live in] the sort of dark cyberpunk future where if you want LEDs on your translucent PVC raincoat, it's a monthly subscription service
