Back home in Wales but with a bit of my heart left behind in Ireland - if the wee English fella can be a Derry girl, I can be too.

@CSharpWords on the Bird App and most other places too.

I just feel like sharing that the LEGO Indiana Jones Lost Tomb set has a mechanism for shooting snakes through holes in the walls.

This is why mock-ups are important.

@VallescuraRule I loved it, almost all of it. And wouldn't mind rewatching it either.

@chebe A large piece of my heart is always on .ie! But I'd feel like a bit of a fraud there these days.

@detachedspork @Sharr0w @chebe I know a lot of people on wandering.shop but since I'm not an author I've been hesitant to ask for an invite for that instance...

While I love to post pics of red pandas, I think it's important that we remember that binturongs also exist, smell like popcorn, and look like they just slept in a ditch after a week long bender.

One thing I've noticed is that people who say "we'll cross that bridge when we come to it" in meetings, tend to be the most surprised when they come to the bridge.

Keep writing your weird stories, people. Keep pursuing your superniche critical essays. Keep penning your oddball comics and your wiseass plays. Keep producing work that makes us ask, "What the Hell did I just read?!" 😀 You can wow us! I know you can!

Partially blind guy here with an #a11y PSA:

I'm seing a trend away from "Text Size" sliders or old fashioned font dialogs and towards a few set choices "Default", "Large","Larger", etc.

This is a HUGE step backwards. Your 'larger' is *never* large enough for my crazy busted eyeballs when I'm using my 34" monitor.

If you must do this, please be sure to add "Largest" and even "ZOMG ARE YOU SERIOUS LARGE" options. Some of us REALLY need them, even if it seems insane to you.
