Writes romance and horror. Sometimes combines the two in a horrible romance. Gluten-free. May contain nuts. No DMs, please, because the UK has determined I'm not adult enough to read them.

THREAD. A collection of photographs of excellent sheep I have met on walks.

You will find the captions to each photo in the alt text.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Grim completionist streak continues with final season of Vikings. Couldn't give a shit about Ivar's new psycho Russian friends, but at least Steven Berkoff has shown up like the final boss of scenery chewing.

Probably can't be healthy for a man of nearly 80 to spend all weekend screaming apoplectically into the void, but oh well.

A post by Zarah Sultana of 'Your Party', that uses a generated image with the words 'Your Party, County Durham Launch', surrounded by nine simple, flat images of images in silhouette with single colour backgrounds, presumably intended to represent Durham, four of which are a man with a weirdly long pick-axe, one is a building, two are gantries of some kind – for a coal mine? – and one is some kind of floating lamp. I will expand on this in the thread.

Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in.

Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

I know, right? They're not exactly making a great case for why they shouldn't be consigned to the dustbin of political history.

Still driving myself slowly insane with furry dice, I'm afraid. It's a sickness at this point.

I wonder what mood Phantom of the Opera signifies? AFAIK Memory from Cats is his 'needs a nap and a juice box' music.

I don't think it's unreasonable to report an ad for CoPilot as misleading, is it? After all, they're trying to sell me a thing they claim is useful, and I happen to know is the complete fucking opposite of that.

It's not that I WON'T write about politicians. It's just that whenever I do they tend to get eaten.

Had no idea Jeff 'Road to Jonestown' Guinn had written about Waco. Great news, because the last book on the subject I tried to read stuck in my mind for all the wrong reasons. And also because of a Goodreads reviewer named Candice who said the author 'writes like a chode.'

Sorry, no. She's too gross for me. I prefer my eldritch abominations with tentacles. And her creepy hair extensions freak me out.

This is possibly the most fucked thing I've ever seen but also the bit at the end where the grandmother is straight up being tricked into providing training content for the app feels particularly revealing.

The nuclear codes were 1234.
The Louvre security password was Louvre.
Elite sex-conspirators list their names and crimes in emails and birthday cards to one another.

At least Dan Brown had the church disguise its dark secrets by jumbling the letters up and doing mirror writing and lemon juice.

You had to like smoking anywhere. I have only the faintest memories of the 70s but I do remember it being heavily nicotine stained. I lived beneath a layer of cigarette smoke that hovered at adult nostril height at all times. And there were candles, because the power was always going out.

It's not new but it recently hit me again, that one big thing transphobes are, is wreckers. They're wrecking progressive movements. I'm reading Judith Butler's "Who's Afraid Of Gender" right now and it's really good on this

Panel from Watchmen with a skeleton near a base guarded by military officers. In the foreground is a partially muscled skeleton screaming, it is Dr. Manhattan having to reform himself into the human body and it’s a wee bit painful. This panel in the comic is after Nov 10th with a circulatory system walking through a kitchen. The narration says β€˜November 14th, a partially muscled skeleton stands by a perimeter fence and screams for 30 seconds before vanishing…
