Mood:
A warning sign. A blue triangle, containing a yellow triangle and stylised whirlpool, into which a red figure is disappearing.

The longer you spend trying to alt-text this, the worse it gets...
A man works on the steeply-pitched slate roof of a three-storey stone house. He clings to a metal ladder laid across the roof at what seems a precarious oblique angle, anchored by a colleague. This second man stands atop another metal ladder set on yet another ladder, which is balanced horizontally across the apex of a pitched roof two storeys below and held in place cantilever-fashion by a single rope at one end. The men have used two more ladders just to reach this rickety construction. The whole assembly looks ready to collapse in a heartbeat.

Jeg fikk studere sovjetiske militærkart over Skottland som var bedre og mer detaljerte enn de skotske fra samme periode

Finner du byene Longniddry, Haddington og Prestonpans?
Detaljert kartutsnitt over East Lothian i Skottland. All teksten er i kyrillisk skrift.

Without downloading any new pictures, where are you mentally?
A red handfish. A small, round, warty fish with bony fins and an expression of deep disgruntlement.

Obviously this is brilliant, but but given the chance I would have gone with a red-and-white Tintin rocket like at Brussels Airport
A model of the iconic moon rocket from Herge's Adventures of Tintin. It stands in the gleaming white terminal of Brussels Airport between Duty Free and a branch of Victoria's Secret.

Refloof med bilde du ville brukt som albumcover.

Obscure coldwave trio's long-lost acoustic session
Et par småvridde, rustne jernstolper i et øde landskap. Skotske fjell med smeltende snø forsvinner i en disig horisont.

That is pretty much how I spent the weekend of Covid lockdown that I would otherwise have spent at Sjock festival.
A music festival poster listing band names which were generated by a neural net. They include "Earth Stench", "Mongrel Hurler" and "The Wafflemaster's Nethersword"

Kind Hearts and Coronets

I'm told people have made films since, but I've never needed to see any of them

Post your favourite #DoctorWho. Wrong answers only.
John Cooper Clarke sitting astride a turned-backward chair. He is rake-thin in a dark suit, with dark glasses and long wispy hair.

A dog in the snow, labelled "I go into the cinema, 10pm Sunday evening". He looks askance at an approaching football, labelled "unexpected phone call from the boss"

Post your Queen
Poison Ivy Rorschach of the Cramps. She wears a spangly minidress, a great big Gretsch guitar and an expression that says she's had enough of your bullshit.

Uten å laste ned nye bilder, hvilken energi går du inn i 2025 med?
A telescope fish, a creature of the deep sea, that copes with the darkness and crushing pressure by consisting mostly of eyes and teeth. This one looks like they just arrived at the remote holiday cottage to discover it's burned to the ground and the remains have been colonised by poisonous snakes.

Went for a longish walk today and this was the best photo I got.

Yes, it's in colour. #landscape
A ploughed field disappearing into dense mist. A few bare trees and a telegraph pole are barely perceptible. All is grey.

Robert Mitchum in Thunder Road. He stands next to a car with hands raised while men in hats frisk him for weapons. A cigarette dangles from his lip. He cannot believe you expect him to go through this shit yet again.

Dere skal sikkert ha sett det, men jeg blir aldri lei av Clive sitt intervju med DWM

Skal man si "mild fiendtlighet"?
A full-page interview. Clive Swift speaks to Doctor Who Magazine, who seem to have caught him at a bad time
