The irony is rich.

Strange how these two images, completely uncropped or adjusted, taken hours apart, seem to fit together perfectly to make another reality. 😳

A semaphore signal in the foreground, with the (relatively) modern signal box and another signal in the background at Chapel-en-le-Frith in the Peak District.

My favourite first-time viewings in November:

Tornado 
I’m Still Here
Flow
Sorry, Baby
Train Dreams
Sorcerer 
Oil Lamps

My favourite first-time viewings in November: Tornado I’m Still Here Flow Sorry, Baby Train Dreams Sorcerer Oil Lamps

An awful lot of rewatching old (and recent) favourites in November but these were my favourite first time viewings in the month (plus the Rupert Davies TV adaptations of Maigret on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social )

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

Rear view of a silver Porsche 911 parked at night, its body and rear window covered in rain droplets that shimmer and bead in the light, creating a sparkling effect against the darkness.

Caught this Porsche glistening in the rain — every droplet like starlight.

A young woman with long purple hair styled with a jeweled tiara sits dramatically on a wide marble staircase inside an ornate historic building. She wears pointed elf ears, a flowing black gothic dress with lace sleeves, and platform boots decorated with stars and studs. Her posture is languid, leaning back with her arms extended across the steps, evoking a sense of otherworldly presence. The staircase is grand, framed with gold-painted railings and intricate detailing, contrasting the fantasy-inspired character with opulent architecture. The lighting is warm and theatrical, highlighting her pale skin, violet hair, and the dark textures of her outfit, giving the impression of a fantasy elf caught in a moment of stillness within a palatial setting.

Nighttime view of the Woolloomooloo boardwalk in Sydney. Wooden planks lead into the distance under a row of tall street lamps glowing with warm yellow light. Reflections from the lights spill onto the harbour water at right, where boats are faintly visible. On the left, a low building with illuminated windows and wall sconces runs along the boardwalk. The sky above is deep and cloudy, with faint hints of blue and purple. The overall mood is calm, quiet, and atmospheric.

After dinner in Woolloomooloo in '23 — quiet boardwalk, soft glow of the lamps, and the harbour at rest. Taken with iPhone 11

A cosplayer dressed as the Joker stands against a dark backdrop. They wear a long purple coat over a green vest and patterned tie, with purple pinstripe trousers and leather gloves. Their face is painted with white makeup, dark blackened eyes, and a red smeared grin, evoking Heath Ledger’s Joker from The Dark Knight.

The Joker walked into Comic-Con Sydney with chilling precision—purple coat sharp, grin unsettling, presence unforgettable.

While I appreciate @bsky.app @support.bsky.team for giving nude art a home on social media - CAN WE PLEASE, for the love of all things holy, address the erroneous tagging of artistic nude images as “Adult Content: Explicit Sexual Images”

A narrow Brisbane laneway covered in vivid graffiti and murals. On the left wall, a green sign with a yellow arrow reads “THIS WAY,” pointing toward the Brew Café and Wine Bar visible at the far end. The right wall bursts with gold, pink, and blue street art, leading to a mural of a woman’s face at the end of the lane.

A splash of colour down Lower Burnett Lane, Brisbane CBD — street art, neon, and the promise of coffee (or a drink) at the end.

Somehow I know I’ll dreaming of the light all day!

English actress Ellen Terry. This photo looks amazingly modern but was taken 161 years ago (in 1864). Ellen Terry went on to have a distinguished acting career and passed away in 1928. (Photo by Julia Margaret Cameron).

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

A paddle steamer named Lady Douglas floats near a white timber building on stilts at the water’s edge in Port Douglas. Behind them, layered blue mountain ranges rise beneath a bank of white clouds, with reflections in the calm shallows.

Lady Douglas steams slowly past a pier in Port Douglas this morning. The Daintree ranges in the background.
