For those who don't know this story, which I first shared six years ago today....

This one time I got my days wrong at work and ended up alone in a room with my boss and the President of Ireland while I was on ketamine.

TO REMEMBER the 8 planets of the Solar System I use the mnemonic "After Dinner I Did A Great Big Shit." It's easy to remember, but unfortunately none of the initial letters of the words correspond to the names of a planet except 'S', and I can never remember the name of that one. J Brown, Edinburgh

The lovely cover of Where We Stand, Where We Fall. A mysterious moon in the sky over an icy world with a distant alien city.

My book Where We Stand, Where We fall is now up for pre-order. It's about the politics of Doctor Who, the themes the show keeps returning to over sixty years.

I mentioned this last week, but now there's a proper post about it, with a 30% discount code from the publisher: lmmyles.com/2025/11/26/b...

For me, holiday time=reading time. I don’t remember where I saw the signpost this marvellous book, but it feels a bit more likely that it was @bsky.app than @linkedin.com!

Thank you @mikecollins.bsky.social and @markchilds.bsky.social for firing up so many synapses!

‘It’s the only thing that works’: Jo Whiley, 60, shares her one motivation trick for reluctant runners You won't skip a run again...

Well I don't qualify for this (wrong sex) www.goodhousekeeping.com/uk/health/a7... But looks like a good idea. Only quibble is with "where you can choose Jo as one of the coaches". Ignore the word "can". Choose Jo. Doing the couch to 5k and having another reluctant runner as a coach really helps.

Hi Ant. You're very welcome. And this feedback is just the incentive we need to keep going with Book Two. That's taken a bit of a backseat to my Philosophy MA but there's just a month left of that @r3beccaf.bsky.social wrote about half the chapters too and @lizisabella.bsky.social pulled it together

Remember, everybody, it was bad and wrong to criticise the Democrats for actively supporting a genocide. When YOUR team is doing genocide you should just give it a thumbs up. Then you'll to get to gloat at the people who thought genocide was WRONG when it was YOUR team doing it.

Video. Bioarchaeologists bring 'vampire' back to life after 400 years Video. After 400 years, the face of a so-called “vampire” has been reconstructed by bioarchaeologists. It follows the discovery in 2023 of a man buried face down in Croatia; a Slavic folklore practice meant to prevent the dead from returning as mythical blood-thirsty demons.

Have to say burying someone face down to stop them from coming back from the dead is remarkably slack - no holy water, no stake, no reducing the body to ash. www.euronews.com/video/2026/0... although as my wife just pointed out, it worked. none of them ever came back to life.

At last - a term to describe the sort of people I feel deeply uneasy about - hobbylos.

Marvel Tarot 102 mm x 59 mm Well annoyingly this was supposed to have an LWB with it, but it was missing from my pack. I’m wondering if it was a bootleg version – I’ve wondered if I’d ac…

I try out the Marvel Tarot tarot117.wordpress.com/2026/03/25/m... and learn I don't know enough about comics for it to add anything for me, so invent my own Guardians of the Galaxy one and do the reading from that instead. #Marvel #Tarot #Cosmic

Someone was trying to take a portrait of their two fave Chickens, and this happened.

Hah - was going to add YBINYB - then saw you'd put it on the list. I did not know there was a sequel arriving. Will keep a lookout for it.

Egyptian Tarot These cards are quite small, 61 mm x 111 mm, and in monochrome. Well the blurb in the booklet (from US Games Systems, so written by Stuart R Kaplan) says they’re reproduced on a background th…

What really enhances the sense of being with others in a space is caring. And they don't understand that.

... because as a mode of being in it is determined by its fundamental structure, care." Mitda-Sein is Heidegger's 1953 word for copresence. The experience of copresence is one of the key drivers for engagement in metaverses. But while techbros create platforms that enhance that sense through tech -

So - working my way through my notes on "Being and Time" I came across this, which might explain why some metaverse platforms succeed and others don't. "the Mitda sein of others encountered within the world (could be taken) as concern. Being together with is taking care of things...

VWBPE 2026 KEYNOTE :: Mark Childs YouTube video by VWBPE

My keynote at #VWBPE last Saturday www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvKm... I'd recommend starting in at 16 mins, which is when i really started to get into my flow and making more sense. People that stuck it to that point did I think get a lot out of it.
