A book with a dark grey cover entitled 1001 nights in time & space: folktales rescued from around the whoniverse, by Steve Coles and Paul Magrs. The cover is illustrated with pale grey drawings of villains from Doctor Who, Sutekh the dog, a Zygon, the Kandyman and the Morbius creature

Thank you @paulmagrs.bsky.social and @stevecolewriter.bsky.social for this wonderful book. Stories that show us the familiar from a new perspective, remind us to look at life through others' eyes, and that entertain and move, with fabulous illustrations. May there always be stories and storytellers!

So cool. And sadly, too far away from me!

Congratulations... and very cool!! If only I lived nearby!

Go get 'im, Adelita.

Oooooohh! 😍

It's uncanny. 😆

I was just made aware that this exists.

No thoughts just Mifune

Oh, they're funny!

YouTube video by BABYMETAL BABYMETAL - METAL KINGDOM (OFFICIAL)

I was just watching this one. It has a nice epic feel to it. And I like all the fox statues on the stage.
youtu.be/ALznpaBWUTo?...

I saw the fox mask on the one guy at the beginning of the video. You know it's cool when there's a kitsune reference.

No, but I am now! I like this! (Trying to get around all the Starbucks ads to look at their other videos.)
Yeah, I can definitely see them being the Japanese branch of the world demon hunting society.

It even made me look for other K-Pop that I might like! 😆 Now I have a playlist of my favorite ones. (There's different genres and some I like better than others.)

It's SO good. I was reluctant to watch it at first, because I can't get through most animated musicals aimed mostly towards kids. For some reason, they try my patience. But this hooked me in immediately: great animation and design, great songs, excellent, hopeful story. Fantastic characters.

Yep!! I have the soundtrack, I ordered a plush tiger...

Yes, I will be 62 in about a week or so. Not too old for toys, as I keep telling myself. ☺️

😍😍 OMG I love these.

However, they're only available as pre-orders for NEXT autumn, 2026.

Was wearing my Harris/Walz 2024 shirt yesterday around the apartment. Nostalgia. Oddly comforting, for some reason.

It was only a year ago. Instead, it feels like decades have gone by.

Long, slow, infuriating decades.

Sardines are GOOD.

What's going on under there? Hmmm.

More perimeter guarding with cow-snake in tow.

She will play keep away with it too. I need to be fast to grab it.

It's actually a piece of palm tree that fell off. 😁

She is a very good girl. 😁

The vet said sardines would be good for her hips. Shepherds often have hip problems when they get older, but she seems fine so far!

The squeaker no longer functions. 😁

After sardines, GSD licks chops.

Our security dog Chanel at work this morning, guarding the perimeter.

Playing with her cow/snake(?) squeaky toy, which she presents to me when I come out to see her.

I gave her some sardines as a treat, hence the chop-licking.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

Oh, I hope so.

Me wanting to sleep v my brain

I relate so much to this.
