Of course!
Have you ever seen the British comedy sci-fi show #RedDwarf?
The "Cat" character there perfectly represents the preening and self-obsessed nature of cats (but also, at times, the friendship 😀)

So what is it?

Over the weekend, I began each day by hosting a #RedDwarf panel at #WalesComicCon with #ChrisBarrie and the bonkers brilliant #DannyJohnJules . Occasionally, when he takes a breath, I’ve even been known to get a few answers out of Danny! But Cats pretty much do what they want, when they want;)

An impossible Jupiter-sized gas giant, TOI-5205b, the first exoplanet of its kind with an atmosphere containing far fewer heavy elements than similarly sized objects, as well as its own host red dwarf star - TOI-5205, discovered in data from NASA’s alien planet-hunting Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
Kanodia described TOI-5205b’s orbit of its host stars as a “pea going around a lemon” as opposed to Jupiter’s orbit of the Sun, which is like a “pea going around a grapefruit.”
Carnegie's Shubham Kanodia quoted in 2023:
TOI-5205b’s existence stretches what we know about the disks in which these planets are born. In the beginning, if there isn’t enough rocky material in the disk to form the initial core, then one cannot form a gas giant planet.
And at the end, if the disk evaporates away before the massive core is formed, then one cannot form a gas giant planet. And yet TOI-5205b formed despite these guardrails. Based on our nominal current understanding of planet formation, TOI-5205b should not exist; it is a “forbidden” planet.

Our classic Who journey sees us following the 2nd Doctor through The War Games. A great story with twists, turns & surprises, smooth exposition, & relatively diverse casting for the time.
One of many enjoyments to be had watching early Who is spotting actors you already know from elsewhere.
Here, we have General Smythe, played by Noel Coleman, who'd later play the Cat Priest in Red Dwarf's Season 1 episode Waiting For God.
We're watching the serialised b&w version, but I see there's also a colourised, feature-lengthed arrangement that we probably won't skip.

My first thought on seeing this was, "It's a garbage scow!"

I can remember watching this as it aired and recording it onto VHS.
It is surprising how often it is an #earworm
It's a classic

Got a loaf of bread last night. Only a few slices eaten this morning.
Partner came home from picking up a few things this morning with another loaf, crumpets AND rolls, for three days.
I feel like Talkie Toaster got to him.

Might not be what you meant, but I couldn't help but think of this clip of the Red Dwarf character Arnold Rimmer following the removal of all his pent-up anger... -

I have made it through series 8 of #RedDwarf in my re-watch. Although technically now into *watching* as I stopped after series 7 originally.
It was… quite terrible.
Pretty bloody awful in fact.
But I am determined so now “Back to Earth” and then onto the Dave era, for which I have a bit more hope. -
@SonofaGeorge @LilahTovMoon Think Dave Lister got that figured out eventually, if memory serves...

In the first ever episode of Red Dwarf, Captain Hollister has to deliver the eulogy at the funeral of Flight Coordinator George MacIntyre: “We're all gathered here today to pay our last respects to George MacIntyre. George was an excellent officer and as good of a friend as anyone could ever hope to have. And he'll be missed more deeply and more completely than he could ever know. And now I commend his ashes to the stars he loves so much.”

Sad news for the geek community in general but specifically for Dwarfers. Just days after announcing that a new Red Dwarf novel will be published in July, the co-author of that book and the co-creator of Red Dwarf has passed away.

I, Robot is on the telly and it's such a load of crap. I know Will is supposed to be a bit jerky because he changes his opinion on robots, but he's kind of a jerk.
Also, it bores me with all this: dewy-eyed robots and they got feelings too! It's just stupid.
I prefer to watch Kryten and Holly on Red Dwarf who both have emotions and it's ridiculous but who cares? And Kryten grows by learning the worst of human behaviour.
I mean, if you do robot-with-feelings, at least make it enjoyable to watch.

I only made it through 9 books in 2025. Not my best, but not my worst.

This week's article looks at the rocky launch of sitcom Red Dwarf and learns a lesson. Just as Jaws wasn't about a shark, Red Dwarf isn't really about space at all.

I'm a politics ignoramous, heck I try not to discuss contemporary politics, for it would drive me to distraction, but (if it isn't old news to you) I have a feeling you may enjoy reading about the third wave experiment!https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_Wave_(experiment)
It mayyy be too close to the bone though.
Still, at least some kids got a very, very elegant education at a cost many many orders of magnitude below that which the Hitlerjugend paid for theirs.
(I've intentionally omitted some pertinent hashtags because I don't want to upregulate them in any system in any way).
If it isn't too soon to joke about such things, here's a gif of Arnold Rimmer trying to tell his CO he's invented a new salute (always a red flag when someone tries to do that, I reckon). Er... If it is too soon to ridicule such things, come back to this post in a few years and hopefully it'll be funny then...

Re-post from MinCup past:
The non-detection of #perovskite in non-stars shows that it's there.Cool red dwarf stars have deep absorption bands from TIO gas in their atmospheres. In yet cooler brown dwarfs those bands have disappeared: opaque perovsite dust has condensed, making the titanium invisible.

I cannot read the word "Smeg" in this article without imagining it being said by Kryten on Red Dwarf : P

Very much enjoyed #mickey17 nothing like the face slap of #parasite but very much invoking all the feelings I had when first watching #brazil or #twelvemonkeys 😎
Bizarrely though at one point I wondered whether to expect a cameo from David Lister and the rest of the #reddwarf crew 🤷

All of these"#AI" prompts. They're in the search engines, my #iphone with #apple_intelligence, etc. Mostly, it's useless and boring.
I can't help but think it's like #talkietoaster from #Reddwarf: Do you want AI? How about if it was a bagel? How about if it was a waffle?

New Worms Red Dwarf level!
