Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music

Several dozen folks did

Some even dubbed music over the original clip.

I haven't been able to get this out of my head.

So I give you

A Bluesky exclusive:

Reservoir Ducks

🐣 🪶

Two firefighters resting, sitting on the plinth of the "Citizen Firefighter" statue.

Quite an image on the BBC live page (www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd...; no photographer credited).

Sounds as if they've saved the station and the hotel, and more importantly, without loss of life.

Citizens; heroes.

Cats, bats and I can't decide between sloths and corvids.

He needs to learn to blend in his foundation better.

the whole purpose of the post-menopausal woman is to prevent the rise of generative AI

For International Woman’s Day, a thread.

ALL Women must stand together on International Women's Day Graphic image of women's outlines in different colours like watercolour.

On International Women’s Day, we reflect on the importance of solidarity between women🩷

For over a decade, the conversation around trans rights has been used to divide women who would otherwise stand together. This weakens our ability to challenge the real sources of inequality, misogyny & violence

I found Dutch fairly easy to learn but nigh on impossible to speak!

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Five pigeons squabble over crumbs on the pavement.

And I shared my pasty with my new mates.

Daffodils!

#BlossomWatch starting for 2026!

The fact that there is a Markwayne and a John Wayne implies the existence of a Matthewwayne and a Lukewayne.

It's not that AI is useless.

It's that AI is useful like asbestos was useful.

Andrew Tate's twatty video only starts making any sense when you use different music

We need more of this stuff right now. Absolutely perfect sport!

I did think that, but there are a lot of tree roots, which has kind of put me off digging too deep!

Putin: 73 years old
Trump: 79 years old
Netanyahu: 76 years old
Narendra Modi: 75 years old
Xi Jinping: 72 years old
Khamenei: 86 years old

The planet is run by elderly narcissists who think the world can't go on without them and have started a world war to prove themselves right.

Said space in garden, currently containing a pile of plant pots and a dead Christmas tree.

The same space.

I need ideas for the far end of my garden. It's a space about 8ft x 10ft and it's just becoming a dumping ground. It's behind the greenhouse and compost heap, so a bit cut off from the rest of the garden, and very shaded by a huge cherry tree. Any ideas welcome!

The process that led to the Holocaust didn't start with killing people.

First it made them non-people.

Then it killed them.

I sadly saw neither Daleks not rude stuff!

Another street art style mural of trains.

A selection of photos of graffiti on walls.

Nathan also has an exhibition in the art gallery, including a history of the graffiti scene in the city

A mural of a street scene in black and white painted on the end of a building

A mural of a street scene taken from a water colour painted on the end of a building

And these two are great.

A mural of a cow wearing a bowler hat with a glass of milk

A mural of a cow wearing a flat cap with a pint of beer.

My personal favourite.

Well, the rain mainly held off and the sun even briefly popped out. Really interesting walk with the artists, Nathan Murdoch and Tony Nero, along with Toby Wood from the Civic Society. Helping to brighten our drab streets.

It has also just occurred to me that I really hadn't paid much attention to that building before, but it is rather grand.

Statue of a man looking skyward with arms outstretched. The sky is grey. He is on top of a white stone building.

Gormley dude sharing my frustration that it is raining yet again!

Anyway, off on a walking tour of the street art in town with the artists. Should be fun... and damp...

Huge congratulations!

A candles stand in front of a stone column with the arches of the cathedral nave in the background

For an atheist I do seem to spend a lot of time in this cathedral...

Anyway, starting my week off work with a candle lit tour.

INDEPENDENT Playgrounds would become 'crack dens' if Greens were in power, policing minister says

I’m sorry, I know it’s a minor point, but crack dens are traditionally indoor establishments. What the scaremongering Labour minister is describing here is a crack paddock.
