Experiment successful.

The cast of TV sitcom Cheers, Cliff, Coach, Carla, Sam, Diane and Norm, but they're all been quickly faceswapped with Cher's face. The title above reads 'Chers'.

A miniature diorama depicting "then" from Majora's Mask. They resemble purple aliens with golden claws and teardrop shaped heads, very similar to the beloved flatwoods monster.

Kitty: “The first day I met her, she said: ‘I’m a radical feminist lesbian farmer’. I thought: What would Jill Archer do?” #TheArchers #AmbridgeAntiques #VictoriaWood

RIP #PatriciaRoutledge

Patricia Routledge as Kitty, from 'Victoria Wood As Seen on TV' (1985-1987). The actual line is: “The first day I met her, she said: ‘I’m a radical feminist lesbian’. I thought: What would the Queen Mum do?”

Happy International Lesbian Day

I am being a bit greedy this year and going on a date with three international lesbians this week. But remember, if you cannot find free range international lesbians, store bought is fine.

I have stickered my stickers all over my old laptop!

Mainly stickers from @fenrisgames.com and #Nerdling with a couple from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social a few random ones and the REBEL stickers I designed.

The black plastic lid of a laptop covered in stickers sourced from various hobby-related people on BlueSky with a clear anti-fascist, pro-queer vibe.

Star Trek Corrupted Captions @startrekcc.bsky.social · 1d

Made this last year, but I wasn't on Bluesky last year so as far as you know this is new!

Top panel: Dr. Bashir is standing in Sisko's office speaking. "I'm worried about Jake. He's been increasingly agitated lately, talking to himself, and I just found this PADD he's been writing his novel on."

Middle panel: We see a close-up of the PADD in Sisko's hands. The sentence "All work and no play makes Jake a dull boy" is repeated the entire way down the screen.

Bottom panel: Sisko looks up from the PADD. "Sisko to security! I want a team to room 237 of the Habitat Ring immediately."
