Look at the little buggers!
Blue sky with a few clouds and by far the dominant feature at least a dozen contrails from wide bodied jets. 😬

If you see this post a picture of a robot.
Picture of a washing machine. It is white.

Alas no welding mask here but a co-op tea foil bag does at a pinch.
Slightly fuzzy photo of the sun with a portion eclipsed by the moon.

Two overlapping circles; one labelled 'social media', the other 'Nazi propaganda' with 'X' in the intersection. Label is according to Grok.

The Heathrow effect, planes playing naughts and crosses in the sky.

I lost a lot of love for him after reading this bit. So 'there's an injustice in it' but he went ahead and did it anyway. And he has a couple of, I imagine, pretty well paid jobs already.
Excerpt from an interview with Alexander Armstrong who has Jay published a children's book. 'You think, vainly, "Oh no, my book is different, this is not me cashing in on my daytime TV fame, this is a much more considered and artistic endeavour." ... But there's no two ways about it. It's a monstrous cash-in. Obviously I think the book is a work of great creative endeavour, but you automatically get shunted to the front of the queue. You get interest from publishers that no other first-time writer gets, and you gobble up all the oxygen around the time of release. And the position in bookshops. There's an injustice there.'

Good morning
A cloudy, pale pink sky over low houses the roofs of which are covered with frost.

Tim White and Chris Foss sold me a lot of books back in the day. It was a long time ago though and I can't give examples.
Possibly this more recently 😅

It's been a while dark chocolate and Stilton but your time has come again!
A plate with a baked potato, a chopping board with a wedge of Stilton, some dark chocolate (85%) and a half full tin of baked beans. Cheese greater in the background.

Happy memories of this one too
A sleek looking golden flier hovering next to a rocky outcrop. A gullwing hatch is open, the bottom half forming steps. Someone inside is offering a hand to the two steriotypical sf women in scanty clothing who stand on the outcrop. All set against a backdrop of out of focus purple grey jungle and a yellow orange sky.

The last lot ran out so I made some more, and Garabaldis too
A cooling rack with 9 scones and an irregularly shaped sheet which is unseparated Garabaldi biscuits.

Morning
Dawn. Trees and houses form a black foreground with the cloudless sky shading from orange at the lower left through pinks to a deep purple at the top.

There was an English equivalent to Goldberg called Heath Robinson.
A Heath Robinson comic illustration of a precarious platform attached to the upper story, external wall of a house. The platform is cluttered with household paraphernalia and a man sits in an easy chair smoking a pipe. Household life continues with a maid at a window and a woman stepping onto the platform with a tea tray. A crib hangs below the platform and above is a clothes line suspended on balloons. Everything is controlled by strings, a common feature in Robinson illustrations.

Somebody at the Telegraph wants a gong and thinks the best way to get one a lot of brown nosing.
Cover of the Daily Telegraph features with a photo of the junior Windsor family and the headline 'A smile in the face of adversity. How the Royal family battled through 2024'
