A magnificent selection of illustrated imps

I was looking for photo resource of "imps" the other week and found an incredible image from 1796, with some superb "tag yourself" opportunities for you and your friends. If this gets three likes and one re-post, I'm done with this place.

Getting into trouble with who? This self censorship seems daft

What is a 'good trouble' arrest? Google only brings up a tv show.

Dress for the job you want (cabaret singer and table-side magician in a mid-range casino and entertainment venue in Vegas) not the job you have (manager of Ecuadorean football team Barcelona SC)

Totally disagree, more concerned about 'bants' than football

Thank you to Steve Edwards ( @flyingcelery.bsky.social‬ ) for today's #foxoftheday !

Flowering season getting underway for large-flowered butterwort, one of Ireland's anomalous Lusitanian group: southern European species found here too, but nowhere in between.

Butterwort is also carnivorous, catching and slowly digesting small insects in its sticky leaves.

Pretty cool, overall!! 🌍

A juvenile brown bear pauses mid-stride among late Summer wildflowers and grasses. One of the flowers is almost as tall as the bear and its blossoms brush the side of the bear's neck as it passes through the vegetation, which is still lush, but browning a bit with the coming Autumn.

A juvenile #coastal #brown #bear quietly pads through late #Alaskan #Summer #wildflowers -- built for strength, yet often observed in such calm moments.🌼🐻🌼

The Cat With The Pearl Earring.

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

The red squirrels are settling in beautifully 🐿️

This spring we reintroduced more #RedSquirrels to woodlands on the Glenelg peninsula. Our Red Squirrel Reintroduction Project is giving them a helping hand to expand to areas of their former range🌲

📷 Thanks to volunteer Tam McLucas for the footage

For 34 years, volunteers from all walks of life have travelled from far and wide to help restore Scotland’s spectacular #CaledonianForest. 🌲

People are at the heart of #rewilding - thank you for giving your time, energy and passion to help create a more hopeful, nature-rich future for all.💚

Pope Francis made his final public appearance on Easter Sunday, a day before his death.

Too weak to give his full traditional Easter message, the 88-year-old briefly appeared on St Peter’s Basilica balcony to greet the crowd.

Is he panicking? Pushing this very hard.

Really striking plumage, thanks for sharing.

That was a dreadful 5 minutes!

Not that many from neighbours though. Certainly nothing like what visits the US

Is there any other democracy that accepts killers as readily as the US? Luigi and Kyle Rittenhouse both treated as heros

Seems very unfair, he has the clubs best interests at heart.

Finally, a real unpopular opinion

Yeah, that comment can be read a few ways & none of them good.

I missed it, what did he say?

Opinion | Elon Musk's antisemitism is a national security risk Musk’s control over vital national security infrastructure is of more concern than what happens on X.

As advertisers pull buys from X over Musk's endorsement of racist and antisemitic consouracy theories, I ask what it would take for the military to no longer be in business with a Musk-owned space launch company www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
