Eli (like a lie online)

I wanna lie on top of my girlfriend and curl up like a cat but no, I gotta 'go to work' and 'do laundry' and 'not crush her'

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?"

Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.

Congratulations and good luck 🩷

Having a heck of time reading a paper about HS (Heparan Sulfate) and not mentally filling it in as Horne Section each time

Figure 1 Pollen from the pp2ab’αβ double knockout mutant dispersed poorly. (A–B) Pollen grains from Col-0 (A) and pp2ab’αβ (B) anthers by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). (C–F) A dehiscent anther from Col-0 (C, E) and pp2ab’αβ (D, F) before (C–D) and after (E–F) pollen shed. (G–I) A close-up view of a Col-0 pollen grain (G), showing a clear reticulate texture, and a large (H) and a cluster of small (I) pollen grains from pp2ab’αβ displaying a glossy surface by SEM. The star marks the sticky remnants of the tapetum and the arrows mark tectum breakage. (J) The percentage of sticky remnant (SR)-containing pollen grains. The total number of examined pollen grains is shown within the bar, and the percentage of SR-containing pollen grains is shown at the top of the bars. (K–L) The stigma and dehiscent anthers from Col-0 (K) and pp2ab’αβ (L). The red arrow marks the pollinated stigma and the shrunken papilla cells. The white arrow marks the non-pollinated stigma and the erect papilla cells

Well, look who abandoned his principles on his first day of having real world responsibility.

Alex and Greg in their taskmaster thrones, Alex is eating out of Greg's hand. Alex is labelled me, Greg is labelled Taskmaster and the hand is labelled outtakes

Love me some short little outtakes to nibble out of the generous Taskmaster hand

Listening to the Wallis Island sound track is all fun and games until you're crying on the train because things *change* and you can never go back

That was, so fast

Maybe firetrucks and ambulances should be smaller, and the bike lanes bigger so they can both use them

Twelve's the worst number, one short for each Horne child having one

I'm imagining Alex skateboarding and I'm imagining him doing it poorly and pitifully and falling down

The wonky scuffed look is part of it 🛶

Screenshot of two tweets from @longliveAlexH. The first 7:27AM reads: "Still feel stiff after Dodgeball. Could this be the beginning of the end?" The second from 8:35AM reads "No, it's all fine. Just had a cup of tea and am feeling back to normal. Pretty confident I'll make it to the end of April at least.

For USA folks, the pre-order from Blackwells blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro... saved me approximately one million dollars in shipping.

I've written a book that comes out on July 3rd. It took me ages and I'm really proud of it (and glad it's finally finished). It's meant for kids but if you like summer holidays, grandparents, beaches and, ideally, stones, I hope you'll like it too. It's called The Last Pebble.

Watch faster Herbie,nuts coming!
(I say like I wasn't watching season 17 as it came out, randomly interspersed with catching up on the show)

A digital painting of Greg Davies as Saturn as depicted in “Saturn Devouring His Son” by Goya. Instead of eating he is kissing the top of Alex Horne’s head. He is naked except for pink boxers with white hearts. Greg is wearing his black glasses.

And here was Vol. 3 of my Greg-ified paintings: “Taskmaster Smooching His Assistant” inspired by Goya’s “Saturn Devouring His Son.” Also features @alexhorne.bsky.social !

Watching Alex watch Ardal wash a mannequin’s hair in a cement mixer — an immediate shot of serotonin straight to the brain

A digital painting of Greg Davies as the Taskmaster in the style of “Grand Odalisque” by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres. He reclines on a blue velvet chaise with his back to the viewer, looking over his shoulder. He’s holding a peacock feather fan in his right hand with a scarf wrapped around his head. Behind him are blue patterned drapes. He wears his signature black glasses.

ok ok I had meant to post vol. 2&3 first but I just finished number 4 and I’m genuinely so thrilled my god — here is “Greg Odalisque”

A digital painting of Greg Davies and Alex Horne in the style of Grant Woods’ painting “American Gothic”. It depicts Greg Davies as the farmer, holding a pitchfork with a rubber duck speared onto it. On his right is Alex Horne, dressed as the farmer’s wife with a pineapple brooch. They stand in front of the Taskmaster house.

Since my account here is brand spanking new I gotta repost everything🤡
I started this ongoing series of “Greg-ified” classic paintings, inspired by the @taskmaster.tv paintings. The first one I did: “Horneian Gothic” which features @alexhorne.bsky.social !!

A black and white illustration inspired by rubber hose animation of The Horne Section. The six men are in various poses, holding their instruments on a stage under a spotlight. The text above them says “The Horne Section”

I’ve been experimenting with Rubber Hose style lately and who’s more cartoon-coded than @alexhorne.bsky.social and @thehornesection.bsky.social ??
Which version do you like more?
