Come and join me in celebrating an incredible achievement: I've just rolled up not one but two sleeping bags in such a way that they fit their, well, bags on the first try. Two! No un-/re-rolling! Mind. Blown. Drinks are on me.

Most preposterous thing happened in class today, or how to emotionally break a millennial in one sentence: randomly bringing up Indiana Jones (as you do) and a student chimes in with "Sorry, I don't watch western movies."

Say what you will about public transportation in Berlin (and there's a lot to be said...) but the lady they sent to retrieve my AirPod case was a heaven-sent daredevil, boldly jumping onto the tracks, exclaiming "who wants to wait on day as fucking hot as today for them to figure out the signals?"

This was just another one of those days where you leave the house and something immediately feels wrong, but you can't quite put your finger on it. Strange. On an unrelated note: I just realized I've been wearing my boxershorts the wrong way 'round all day. #NeedMoreSleep #GoodNight

Listen, just give me a good old shambling army of the dead, yeah?

Listen, I love everything this book has to offer and I'm sure so will you, but what I'd love more than this? For "Shores of the Silver Thrum" to become a book just like this, so, uhmn... Make this one as successful as it deserves to be, yeah? And lest I forget: Do you seek him?

Less than an hour to wait for this - grab those tickets now and join the premiere of Earworm to fill that Alan Wake shaped hole in your heart (or just to listen to something I suspect will be pretty darn good, your choice).

And only days ahead of a certain @shadowsatthedoor.bsky.social premiere that'll certainly worm it's way into our ears by having dear professor Troughton aka @davidault.bsky.social rap? Coincidence? A trend? Supernatural shenanigans? Either way, I'm here for it!

What strange accolades to be mentioned in the same breath as @thelaurentucker.bsky.social @maryhellscream.bsky.social and @megaran.com for a rap battle about... going to the toilet?! I'll take it. By God, I'll take it! Also, the rest of the album [expletive] slaps! 🔥🎶🎮🎶🔥

Jepp, that sounds like a Travis thing to do.
Bored, are we? Done answering all those emails? 😂

In a cruel twist of fate it turned out that "the" comic shop went out of business last year. Went and watched death of a unicorn instead to make the trip worthwhile. Can't complain. Now all I have to do is find a new source of those colourful pages...

Sounds like you got the "make good choices" down, nice! Also reminded me that I haven't been to "the comic shop" in... THREE YEARS?!? Right, that's it, where are my shoes?

I'll be having whatever that alldayandnightingale in front of my bedroom windows is having, please.

That mixing engineer deserves a raise (in levels of footstep track)!

Are you tired of all the horror (adjacent) stuff I've popped up in over the past year or so? Well, do I have a treat for... oh. Oh... So, this is kinda awkward, but... Head on over to @redracula.bsky.social for the public release of a certain lil' short story, maybe? open.spotify.com/episode/1rk4...

10yo me: wow, you're pushing 40 now. Your taste must be well refined and your humour as poignant as a telephone book!

Current me: Yes. Also, I discovered this song today and giggled uncontrollably for a handful of minutes.

PS5 rest mode here to scream "hold my beer"; paused a game, put the PlayStation in rest mode only to return 15 min later to find the exact same scenario. Only when the game started did I realize that it had been force quit without saving those last 1½ hrs of open world exploration. 🤷

So, apparently my NatGeo subscription now comes with a complimentary stat boost? Maybe now I can finally avoid all those crit reading fails?!

Florian Seidler @crawshay.bsky.social · Mar 14

Uhmn, yes, please?

Fellow human users of the Bluesky network: it has landed! The outrageously good @darkdicepod.bsky.social Album I had the inconceivable pleasure of helping create alongside names far greater than mine (that would easily burst Bsky's character count) is yours to listen to anywhere you like now. Enjoy.

Sorry Severance, it's not you, it's only that this Friday belongs to The Gorge - gotta know what @crobertcargill.bsky.social has been up to (while I patiently await Dreams and Shadows #3 😉).
