Time the last antibiotic and some pain relief. Headache from hell. Glad it’s almost over.

@dashingdarbs.bsky.social It’s taken my days to spot this on my feed but I’ve been watching for it to share with you - Daily Rothno. I love them.
The Daily Rothno is a garage wall in Islington

A colleague works in climate adaptation and environmental sustainability … and uses AI to get work done quickly.

It baffles me. That shit uses so much water & energy. Their use of it is helping fuel the very problem they’re working to combat.

Seeing so many who think the US will be fine once the 🍊 🤡 is gone by whatever means.

Yeah nah! The white supremacy ‘Christian’ Fascist shit is wide spread & the country’s ugly underbelly is emboldened.

Whether he’s ring leader or puppet, it’s your fellow countrymen too.

Sabrina loves the fairly rare days when I work from home. I work at my art desk & there’s a small cuddly rug which is her spot.

Doing small collage also shows me what I don’t like as much. This was fun to do but isn’t really me…it’s just too busy.

I’ve been doing a lot of small collages, thinking about the colours, shapes and layouts that feel right to me.

BREAKING: Trump just hit a new low. He mocked President Biden with a fake cough while Biden is battling cancer, leaving the room in stunned silence.

This wasn’t humor, it was cruelty. This is who MAGA defends. We stand for decency, empathy, and democracy.

Watching an art video. The artist was explaining their system for putting their crayons back in their tin, in order, at the end of each art session.

I, uh, yeah of course I do that 😬

Oh lord. Sometimes Alan’s years of being a bachelor show at mealtime.

Left over broccoli & cauli in cheese sauce. Cold pickled pork we were given. A leftover sausage & leftover rissole, reheated. Spicy packet noodles. In a bowl…

I’m grateful he normally cooks but sometimes it’s a bit random 😂
