Professional geek, amateur guitarist. Toots 92.7% cat. I have a pet dragon called Brian in my attic. He/him.

Profile picture is me and the lady known as Darling Wife, in a pub, both looking down at the camera.

Header is a small black cat with a fluffy white belly curled up on her side with her paws held at slightly odd angles so we can see her belly. Her eyes are open and seem to be looking at something towards the bottom of the image, which we can't see.

This is Niffler. She was cross because she wasn't allowed to sleep on our bed last night (because we were driving early this morning and she makes it hard to sleep) so she was watching me play Last Epoch.

Feelin' Festive Mastodon-style

boogies

Also, time for one final call for the project for the season. If you have a pet you'd like to see in a Santa hat post a photo in the replies and I'll festive them up as best I can over the next couple of days 🐱 🐶 🎅

Looping drawn animation. A cloud against a teal backdrop. On the cloud are one mastodon in the centre, the logo to my things.uk instance, and four simple figures dressed in red. They are all dancing. Thy are all wearing Santa hats. They are having a fine old time.

The curious incident of the Afghanistan war crimes statutory inquiry being set up

It may becoming obvious why the government set up this inquiry rather than its usual tactics of denial or derision or deflection of serious allegations

@davidallengreen "it may becoming" 🙂

Youngest child has his driving test today. Which a) makes me feel old and b) is extra stressful because he's unexpectedly having to do it in Darling Wife's car because his instructor's car has a bit of a cracked in the windscreen...

So the car park people have rejected our appeal (quelle surprise). But in their rejection letter they've said "you were parked longer than 180 minutes". And this is true, but they've also included in the same letter a picture of the sign that says parking is for up to 5 hours.

To the ombudsman we go...

Niffler wants to know why we've waited until today to take the decorations down.

Is there any way to get (official) Aziraphale and Crowley socks that doesn't cost £320? Are they the same as these? https://www.lookhuman.com/design/377708-crowley-and-aziraphale/sock

First 5k under 30 minutes in a couple of years. Not super consistent on lap pace but I'll take it.

@girlonthenet so I bought one using that link, hope you get the credit!

Does anybody know where I can get genuine Gibson parts (specifically bridge/pickup covers/tuning pegs) for an LP Custom Red Wine?

The local guitar shop is struggling to get them and I'm not convinced the ones I can find online are actually genuine; I was hoping to sell it and buy something a bit more appropriate for someone that only plays at home but the metal parts are quite corroded and polishing is not going to cut it...

I have Russ Abbot's "Atmosphere" stuck in my head. Just the one line of it that I can remember...

Is this for the Internet again human?

Why yes, I am very cute.

Did you just pspsps at me, human?

Apparently she disapproves of something outside.

@chrisgn@mstdn.social avatar

I don't think this will work properly, human. You should do it in COBOL or something instead.

@chrisgn@mstdn.social avatar

I think we need to discuss your performance in the treats department, human.

Excellent loaf posture there though.

On the one hand I need to get up and do some work.

On the other, I really don't want to.

What do you mean "not allowed on the dining table?" Does not compute.

@chrisgn@mstdn.social avatar

Goodnight folks

chrisgn, to Cats
@chrisgn@mstdn.social avatar

Why yes, I am perfectly comfortable. Good day to you, sir.

So when are you getting this weather sorted, human?

chrisgn, to Cats
@chrisgn@mstdn.social avatar

We missed because we were watching Justin Hawkins riding again live (which was very entertaining).

So here's Niffler this morning.
