I do love me some blatant fascism. And so history repeats itself.
An article screenshot from The Daily Telegraph with the headline: Reform to ban councils from flying 'woke' flags" and subtext: "Only Union Flag and St. George's Cross may be displayed in 10 councils controlled by party". The image underneath shows the LGBTQIA+ flags hanging like bunting across a Georgian looking street.

Okay buddy but what if I need my luck? Is it a mandatory condition of entry? I mean chances are if you got this swanky floor mosaic in your house you've already had PLENTY OF LUCK!
A posh floor mosaic in an entrance hallway which reads "Grüss Gott.tritt ein. Bring Glück hinein." In an Old English font which roughly translates to "Hello, come in and bring luck."

Out on some jobs before Christmas and found the new addition to the back streets of Ambleside. RIP Riley.
A bronze statue of a cat sat on a garden wall. The plaque, which is on a stone next to the statue with a small planter on it on Millans Park, Ambleside, reads: "LIFE of RILEY (2011-2024): A much loved feral cat whom lived here in this garden. "RILEY - loved ratting and pigeon fancier. This statue commemorates her life of freedom and joy she brought into our lives and will never be forgotten. "With grateful thanks to all who gave to this artwork and to her creator internationally renowned Lakes artist and sculptor David Cemmick."

How did Funko get the Astro Bot figure so wrong? It's the perfect figure for the style and they just phoned it in. Wrong colour, no blue, eyes look off. The YouTooz one actually looks like him at least. Sorry rant over.
#Astrobot #Funko #Youtooz #ASTRO
The Funko Pop figure of Astro Bot in a flying pose accept he is all silver with no blue markings. Just the blue feet, cape and antenna. His eyes are too low. The YouTooz version of Astrobot with the proper white colour and blue markings. He has a proper cape and his eyes have maintained the "YouTooz" expression whilst looking like him still.

A group called the Yarn Bombers knitted/crocheted a 7ft Santa on a surfboard and put him on the weir in Hawes town center.
As well as the description suggests the 7 foot Santa clause on a surf board is also wearing red shorts instead of long trousers and some black sunglasses like the cool guy he is. He is suspended above the water by a wire crossing the beck.

Trying to do some owed work for people and I've had to make a cat trap since Jet is being the ultimate needy queen.
An all black female cat with light green eyes curled up on a woolly black rug with pink and white paw prints and hearts. The rig is on the edge of a computer desk and in the background you can see the edge of the PC, the computer mouse and a desk lamp.

Halò à Dùn Èideann!
I snuck some pictures from my job today. I haven't seen the sun in so long 😭

A shot of Edinburgh looking South East over the old town and the Scott Monument. The side of a Ferris wheel from the Christmas markets can be seen on the right side Edinburgh looking West up Princes Street from up high. The Castle is silhouetted against the low sun and the setting up of the Christmas markets can be seen below.

Google is locking any questions which asks how to get rid of the AI Overview Dumpster Shite. There is literally no way to get rid of it on Android. We should not be forced into this.
A Google help page screenshot of a question asking "I tried the "labs" option to disable Al overview in google search results. But "AI overview" keeps appearing at the top of search lists. I don't want to see this at all. Can I disable it completely? Or break it? Or convince google to stop making me use it?" There is a icon below saying this question is locked and replying has been disabled. A button below says 50 other people have the same question. It was posted July 11th 2024.

9 years since I won the village art competition by fleecing the council into thinking this was a religious homage and absolutely, definitely nothing to do with the Assassin's Creed brain rot teenage me had.
A fine line pen drawing of an eagle and a horse with a rug on its back with the templar cross both in opposing poses with a desert background and just a hint of the temple of Solomon on the left with the text "Nothing is true, Everything is permitted" and "Not to us lord, not to us but to your name give the glory"

I have caught a horrific viral sickness which is making me shake and my limbs are all achy and sore. This picture has never been so accurate (art by @/themeekwarrior.bsky.social)

No dad nooooo.
(Talking about Pixel phones for context)
A WhatsApp conversation between me and my dad. Me: Yeah I've been happy with my 7 Pro. The last one I had was a 5 and was just terrible but they seem to have sorted it out. Dad: The videos I was watching said they had ironed out the problems with the 7. 🤞 Me: I've not really come across many problems with the 7. The 5 used to freeze up it was like it couldn't handle it's own operating system Dad: There is more AI on the 8 Me: That's not a good thing

Found this weird liminal space in a blocked off unit of a shopping centre before Christmas. Even the lighting is weird.

We just found out that if you play the song Ca Plane Pour Moi (you'll know it when you hear it) Our young Husky Fenrir howls along with the awoo-ooo-ooo part. I wish I could post a video it's so funny
Our Siberian Husky Fenrir tied to a gate. He is grey with a white face and chest and black markings.
