Hi @bsky.app

Just wondering when you will ban this account for clearly breaking your "no threatening people with death" rule.

I really enjoy Parisian graffiti! From the bear ubiquitous space invaders, to pretty little stencils like this adorable kitty cat!

Murder is bad.

But this prick was a fascist, a racist and a Christian Nationalist. He was probably a sociopath, having said empathy was a "made up, new age term". He called the civil rights ovement a "mistake". And the BBC are sanitising his hate filled rhetoric.

So Michael Deane- one of Northern Ireland's leading chefs is a racist dirtbag.

Don't eat at Deanes. There are a lot of better, cheaper, less racist restaurants around Belfast.

For those not getting the reference, JD Vance's South Park character is a take on Tattoo from Fantasy Island.

If you STILL support Israel's genocide, murder, starvation and collective punishment of innocent Gazan citizens you're either:
•a sociopath;
•so unbelievable gullible and dumb you will believe any of Israel's blatant lies;
•an evil, genocidal fuck.

Fuck Netanyahu, fuck the IDF, and fuck you.

Odious grifter Jordan Peterson takes his lobster obsession to a new level and tries to BECOME a lobster through sheer force of will.

Jokes aside, this does not look like a person who is well- physically or mentally.

The world's loneliest dweeb, who is so insecure, he pays people to cheat at video games for him.

With his poor gender affirming surgery and his botched penis enlargement you could almost feel sorry for Musk, if he wasn't a Nazi, a liar, a cheat, a con man and a drug addled fuckwit.
Allegedly.

The Monarchists didn't like this one at all. Which made it funnier.

Still very proud of this. It annoyed a lot of Monarchists, who got offended because Philip was old. They really wanted me to know that actually this wasn't funny (it was) and Philip looked nothing like Peter Cushing (he did).

This painting in the Doge's Palace, Venice. It's a painting of hell by Herri met de Bles, a follower of Hieronymous Bosch and I found it mesmerising. So much so I had to get a canvas of it for my home office.

Personally, I love the look of the Enterprise-A (and obvs the original refit), Constitution II class.

Second would be the Enterprise-E, Sovereign class followed by the G, Constitution III class.

Viruses are small. Like, really really tiny.

If a cold virus was actually as large as my perfect replica in the image below (accurate in every detail, except for the eyes. And the fur. And the colour) the equivalent person would be about 9000km tall, with nostrils about 50km wide.

As I've been commenting about books and authors, I thought I'd show our cosy little library at home, which is probably my favourite room in the house.
