Currently drinking endless cups of tea in my library while reading Garth’s new novel to get ready for Thursday night

This morning I crushed two tabs in a mortar and pestle just to approximate the former fizzyness

@birmo.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 11:27 PM

Almost certainly. Plus, they got rid of the foil paper wrapping. I hate them so much

@birmo.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 11:26 PM

Yeah, but under no circumstances should we support Ukraine militarily, right Dave?

Some billionaire chud changed the formula for Berocca, and now they don’t fizz as much, and I hate late stage capitalism

I read the whole piece. Didn’t make me angry, but it did confuse me as to how somebody with your analytic skills could fail to see that supporting Musk’s platform inevitably helps Musk in his project to promote the fascist takeover of your country. Even if your timeline has been cleaned up.

Trump: Zelenskyy better damn well stop blowing up Russian refineries. Zelenskyy: Blows up Russian data centres. Trump: No not like that damn it!

I tried to understand that feeling you get when your love of a cute animal video turns to sick realisation you're watching AI slop.

📖 As I’m currently reading @birmo.bsky.social “The Cruel Stars”, when I saw @genericitis.bsky.social mention “The Javan War” prequel story I immediately went and looked it up for myself.

So now I’m reading an intro. to Subby Hardy and other characters 🤗

I wonder if yo could crowdfund a drone strike simply to clean up your timeline?

You may go to the tuck shop while I deal with these other children

@birmo.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 5:23 AM

All of your bookshelves could be like this if you really loved me.

That fat Tim Winton is taking up a lot of space

@birmo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 7:51 PM

Deep, defeated sigh.

@birmo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 7:27 PM

But my book and you will get a cheque for $5000. In a few weeks. After the royalties.
