Been looking for this.
Back in the day I scored a ticket to an Amanda Palmer show, was absolutely floored when he showed up mid-act, completely unannounced. He was one of my favourite writers, a friend to Sir Terry Pratchett (RIP) , and on top of that, someone who seemed like a genuine force for good in the world. I remember that show made my year, I felt so incredibly lucky, like finding a bike under the tree when you’re 4.
Then Good Omens happened, then Sandman, and I was just genuinely happy to see him getting the accolades and recognition.
Not mincing words here, once the allegations started floating up, I felt so angry and personally betrayed. For every book or show recommendation, for every conversation where I brought him up as one of my personal heroes. I was almost in mourning, I realise that now, and I’m pretty sure my cynicism levelled up as a direct consequence of that experience.
Fast forward to last week or so, where my RSS feed pings with an article from his blog, the first since the scandal began. He’s pointing to a journalist investigation that seems to say the whole thing was a hatchet job. He tries to explain, and this being Neil, the words line up and do his bidding. And I want to fucking believe him, I do. But I can’t.
The absolute worst thing? In spite of everything, I hope he’s really telling the truth. How does that make any fucking sense?


Here’s a virtual hug from a stranger. May the road ahead be smoother and more fulfilling, mate.

Is this Bialetti’s redneck cousin or what?


Whenever I see dates like this I do the math in my head almost on reflex.
Man, dad died at 43, that must have been heartbreaking. Makes me wonder about the story behind the author.


I’m surprised he wasn’t replaced by Alexa.
Inside of you there are two wolves. Yesterday and Today.
Dropkick my Murphys?


If engineers ruled the world, this would be the everyday news.


On topic: I’m in the same boat as you. My phone still works and has a decent battery life, so I don’t see the point of upgrading. I don’t game on my phone, well, nothing resource intensive anyway, and setting up a new one to my liking is a pain.
The other criterion for me is whether the phone still gets security updates. Once those stop, it’s time to look around. That may mean a new phone, but for Pixels you also gave Graphene OS as a possibility.


Bit off topic, but do yourself a favour, take a wooden toothpick and gently remove the lint from the USB-C port. You can thank me later.
INB4 this will be shut down later this year when they find out 90+% of traffic is driven by horny teens bypassing age verification to watch porn.
