On the upside (?) I know my people well enough to say that the more he pushes this, the LESS likely the committee is to actually give it to him (he has a chance, but judging by the news, there I'd guess a zero chance of the ceasefire holding sadly AND no way he'll stay focused)

Johnson: "Together with my friend Speaker Ohana of the Israeli Knesset we're going to rally speakers and presidents of parliaments around the world so we will jointly nominate President Donald J Trump for next year's Nobel Prize. No one has ever deserved that prize more & that is an objective fact."

Every single genre, especially "literary" fiction 😌

Writers should bring back titling chapters like they're mini summaries of what I'm about to read ie chapter 2 wherein our hero meets a gentle lady, kisses a troll and considers marrying a sinister tavern owner to escape troublesome family matters

“Farm workers follow where the spinner has passed and collect the potatoes in shallow baskets.
Picking up potatoes is back-aching work”
Writer: EL Grant Watson
Artist: CF Tunnicliffe

On a misty day in autumn, a group of mainly women follow a tractor to gather potatoes. The figures are hunched over and you can almost feel the back pain.

Day 11: COZY 🛋️

#SuperBatober #Inktober #inktober2025

SUPERBATOBER 11: COZY -- Ah! A nice and lazy, rainy weekend. Good for hanging out on a couch, a purring cat to your right, a cup of tea to your left, and a good book resting in your blanket wrapped lap. That's how Batgirl is spending it! I wonder if Supergirl, half on the floor completely passed out, minds that her friend is taking up half the couch to do so. Judging by her snoring, probably not.

In the series he appears to be a gay doctor/medical person of some kind who invites his boyfriend to dinner with dad and pregnant sister. This is way more interesting

Read the latest Wisting book earlier today and now watching season 5 of the TV series, which is really hammering home the amusing fact that there are 19 books and I know everything about Line - the girl twin - & fuckall about -Thomas - the boy twin except I think he's an army pilot in the books.

I'll take it.

Gotta have hope darling @hopeinthenight.bsky.social · 5d

I hope this year's peace prize will once again go to a random organisation I've never heard of that's been consistently making the world just a little better for decades doing whatever it is they do.

I am getting gay vibes off of these random family member of victim and baby police officer in these eps of random Swedish crime show, which goes excellently with the definitely lesbian teen girl couple who fight sooooo hard for each other in this.

Bringing this back bc it's the only thing I think of when I see the posts about fandom/AI/relationship with AI. It's not a 1 - 1 but it's definitely relevant

Weekend continues with Sayaka Murata's Vanishing World which I'm pleased to inform continues the tradition of being increasingly more brainbreakingly repulsive & very readable. It has a world where its normal to love fictional people. It also has a solution for male pregnancy I haven't read before.
