Always a little awkward making small talk with the farrier while he’s working my hooves.
“You want the winter shoes?” he asks.

One of my favorite fun facts is why the TMNT are named after artists (it’s because the type of turtle they are is a “painted turtle”). I told my nephew about this and he immediately replied that there should be a Bob Ross turtle. So rather than explain the renaissance movement to him, I-

The German police brutally assault an Irish woman protesting against Israel's genocide.
The German state is a disgrace.
It committed genocide against the Jewish people - far from its only genocide.
It forced Palestinians to pay the price, viciously silencing anyone who objects

I have been made very aware that perhaps the least commercially sensible move an author can make in this day and age - particularly a writer unpaid by his ex-publisher - is to write a collection of short stories so of late I've been devoting my time to writing a collection of short stories.

Off socials, but had to come back to pay tribute to these two. Can’t think of many others who have given me as much joy and delight as them. Two bona fide geniuses, who despite troubled personal lives, were sonic revolutionaries, fearlessly forging new paths as others scoffed. Immortal.

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

Please RT: I was run over by a taxi on the north junction of London Bridge (in front of the Wolseley City) around 5.45pm this evening. Knocked off my bike.
There were a lot of witnesses. If you saw it, please get in touch.
