Watson episode 2 has all the snap the first one didn’t. Some really fun, sparky dialogue

The absolute worst thing that will happen is you’ll get some brain space for the next awesome thing. Every outcome of this is great. Go enthuse about a book.

Case in point; I finished the first collection of the Ram V scripted New Gods! LOVED it! Feels like the first time I got the characters!
FWIW: Mention books you like or you think others might like. You never know what'll happen:

I saw The Sad Bastard Cookbook here so I mentioned it on Masto (in a "in case you need this" sense). It kinda went viral (1K shares). It jumped to a high ranking on Amazon and then they got media attention.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

I am, no joke, literally always saying this, but Dragon Age: Origins. It kicked off the DA series and has incredible story and amazing characters, but old graphics, stability issues and outdated gameplay mechanics make it nigh inaccessible to new players.
I would like to know! 🤓👾

As someone who loves to bake, it was sad when I left teaching because I could no longer give my baking to fellow teachers. Now though I can give stuff to my partner to take to astronauts and that is also very good indeed.
At a cake cutting ceremony for their mission, an astronaut shouted me out for my baked goods. A highlight of my life.
What is the best compliment you ever received? Putting aside whether or not you believed it.

For those who enjoy ebooks on Kindle, it seems that 'Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire' is *massively* discounted today down to $1.99 in the US and £7.99 in the UK. Which feels like a pretty good deal really.

Did I announce this with a pun?

Of course I did.
I'm a BAFTA Breakthrough 2025!

I'm honoured to be amongst such an incredible cohort, and for BAFTA to recognise my work on Old Skies!

As a disabled, female, performer-writer in games, I am so proud to show what we can do, and with BAFTA's support the sky's the limit!

I really hate asking this, esp before the holiday, but I’m having an emergency. My filling broke and I have a painful abscess that needs immediate care. I don’t have dental insurance and could really use a hand. I’m so sorry to ask. I can barely eat or sleep. #mutualaid

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...

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

Everyone, give

If you like those Super Eyepatch Wolf videos, I made a game booklet and OST for a fake survival horror videogame called Soul Cemetery that's also a solo ttrpg. So go get it on itch or my store.
