Come down
Get off your fucking cross
We need the fucking space to nail the next fool martyr
To ascend you must die
You must be crucified
For our sins and our lies
Goodbye

I hate Discord, I've tried to mute everything, and still, I have 154 notifications!
I wish there were a better way of knowing things rather than having to search a 1,000 channels etc.

Just got the Backerkit email, but...
To us in the UK, May 2025 is in the past.
I do wish all folks around the world would use dates like: 5th December 2025, or December 5th 2025. Still, I filled it in.
Game on.

First time ever in my life, I thought about leaving the UK and living elsewhere.
Of course, with my family being 75% Irish, I could easily move there - the trick is working, living and the family wanting to also go.

I'm watching that Midwinter of the Spirit on Netflix.
It's not very good. Has great promise, but I think one of the problems - the main actor, I find that I'm expecting her to say something based on her role in Motherland (sorry to typecast someone).
Is shall finish it though, I'm like that.

So in the last 24 hours, it seems:
Missus is feeling a bit better
Panic at the Disco is being played at Number 10
Panic at the Disco is being played at The Home Office
The weather is very weatherly
But more importantly, the red light has come on for the tea bag level. I need to brave said weather!

It's too early for a Saturday, but my youngest and I were to travel to Birmingham for the Uni open day.
However, my other angel is in bed poorly. She spent a lot of Thursday in A&E and isn't any better. Hopefully, bed rest will aid her.
So my youngest has cancelled her day to look after her mum.

@pcgamer.com Good respect to you folks in the latest mag. Using Queen song titles as section titles was great to see and read.

This has irked me since I saw it, and I have to ask something.
For me, Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind is about Aliens VISITING the Earth and mankind wanting to communicate with them.
Nothing about an Invasion at all, where do they get these ideas on the BBC?

It's amazing isn't it, what happens in 24 hours!
I'm back from the dentist - it wasn't as bad as expected.
Our PM looks like there's trouble brewing
The MoJ is putting £10m into AI to stop releasing prisoners early (I'll do it for £2m with no AI)
Trump feels he's obligated to sue the BBC
Crumbs!

Was good to get the old Dragonbane sheet out tonight, a gentle game of eating Muffin's to offset my Baker's fear of what was in that place under the mound.
@fenrisgames.com cheers fella for running it with what's going on with Oz.

Crumbs, when I lived in Peterborough, I used to live in Fletton, it was then a quiet area, a little posh in places, but quiet.
I still visit as a good mate lives there.
I hope it's all safe today.
