Been a while since I was on here and I see it's been invaded by MAGA shitstains and government departments.

Stop acting like a 14 year old 4Channer. Also, delete your bio, don't use words you can't understand

Screenshot of the Homeland Security's bluesky bio. The words "with honor and integrity" are highlighted in pink, because they obviously don't know the meaning of those words.

Hey Department of DEFENCE, what's the matter, your echo chamber getting boring over on twitter?

Happy 10th Anniversary to one of the most successful, widely used tweets ever.

Screenshot of the tweet posted by twitter user Cavalorn which reads 'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party.'

If any UK Hello Kitty Island Adventure players are wondering why the Wheat field DLC isn't showing up, apparently it's release is around 3-4pm #HelloKitty #Switch

The living room is chaos right now with boxes being packed up ready for the 18 y/o to go off to uni.

I'm now convinced that despite it being one of their biggest selling games ever, Nintendo hates Animal Crossing. I have gifted money put aside for a Switch 2, & I'm not getting one until a new Animal Crossing is out. At this rate I'll have to spend the money on something else.

Things I never thought I'd hear myself say:

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is a far superior game to Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
It's way, WAY better, with far more gameplay.

Dear #audiobook producers, if the main character is British, don't employ an American narrator whose attempt at a British accent is absolutely appalling. It makes the listener struggle to enjoy the book.

After the disaster of the book arriving yesterday with the cover totally ripped and hanging on for dear life, the replacement copy has just arrived. Can't wait to finally read it in it's purest form - a physical book! #HellsBells #ForWhomTheBelleTolls

I really really want a new #AnimalCrossing game announced in tomorrow's #NintendoDirect for the #Switch2, but I don't think we'll get it until next year at the earliest 😢.

The pain on her face is like a punch to the soul.

I just want 5 mins alone with her mother to give her a more tangible punch.

NEW 🧵 Is human intelligence starting to decline?

Recent results from major international tests show that the average person’s capacity to process information, use reasoning and solve novel problems has been falling since around the mid 2010s

What should we make of this?

Happy Pi Day everyone, though it feels like this day is really just for countries that use the bizarre month-followed-by-day format (I'm looking at you, US) that allows them to write today's date as 3.14

Last night I watched a pirated movie. On a scale of 1-10 I'd have to give it 3.14159265359

That alt text should read left hand. My hands aren't weird.
