A guilty interest of mine is AI slop, particularly Italian Brainrot and those cat (and now fruit) dramatic stories. The former feels like a contemporary expression of Commedia dell'arte, with a collection of recurring characters and their interwoven relationships. Reading into it too much?

The Cat Bus from My Neighbour Totoro.

When I close my eyes on the morning commute, this is how I imagine I'm getting into town πŸ˜‰

Watching "My Neighbour Totoro" which is exactly what's needed. Such a calm opening, but afraid to have silence and linger on frames. Perfect antidote to stress, anxiety and all the accompanying emotions of the personal and global.

A photo of a skylight in the Arndale Shopping Centre, central Manchester.  A blue sky interrupted by lines of the panelled glass, and the Arndale building towering above.

Calvin and Hobbes strip by Bill Waterson. 
Calvin and Hobbes playing in a sandbox 
Hobbes: Do you have an idea for your project yet?
Calvin: No,  I'm waiting for inspiration. You can't just turn creativity on like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood. 
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last minute panic.

Today's mood is brought to you by Bill Waterson (Calvin and Hobbes) - this has been my MO since primary school ;-)

Deceptively nice day - spring includes rain and we often forget that. "Beautiful day, spring must finally be here." Really? Do you think rebirth is docile?

Homemade sign,  cream background and red paint reading "Make love not war"

We're sorting boxes at home, and found this sign gifted to me after protesting the Labour Party Conference in 2006. Feels significant that it's come back into my life just now.

My love to everyone in fear today, those facing the loss of loved ones, the loss of certainty, the loss of safety. Today we will light our chalice as a sign of hope that those deep values of humanity - care, kindness, support - may carry on as we face the challenge of a change world.

"Skinner out of touch" meme - first panel Skinner is thinking "Are my racist policies unpopular with the general public?" Second panel he thinks "No,  it must be woke progressives, sectarianism and Islamists"

@christian4burys.bsky.social care to comment? The lesson Keir should learn is to actually listen to people. I hope you're able to (I'd appreciate a chance to talk with you about SEND support and Phillipson's white paper)

Happy for the Gorton and Denton result, esp if it helps shift Labour's position to the left. I hope this will help communities pushing back against Reform, and shed light on their divisive rhetoric and policies. Ultimately, I hope Hannah can fulfil her promise of listening to her constituents.

As I noted in my opening Swingometer profile of the seat this result - Green win over Reform with Labour third - is the nightmare scenario for the incumbent government. They have fallen into the electoral Valley of Death. Rejected in the centre. Rejected on the right. And now rejected on the left
