Coffee bags, one is Tom of Finland with a Tom of Finland image on it. The other is Moomin with a Moomin leaning on a blueberry. More details: in the photograph of two "Art Roast" coffee bags on the shelf of a store with prices in euros. One of the bags is large and black and says HEAVY DUTY dark roast coffee beans, exclusive blend by Robert [I can't read it, it's in script]. The other is blue and says Blueberry coffee.

ah yes, the two genders

This striking black silk hikizuri (a trailing-skirt kimono worn by geisha) from the Taishō period (1912–1926) features a powerful and "luminous" composition centered around a magnificent hawk (taka). The bird of prey is rendered with extraordinary precision using the yuzen resist-painting technique, with its feathers meticulously articulated through fine embroidery to convey both strength and grace. The hawk is depicted in a dynamic diving pose, its talons outstretched as it descends toward a churning sea of stylized blue and white waves that crash against jagged, moss-covered rocks at the hem. To the left, silver-toned pine needles (matsu) emerge from the darkness, their sharp, needle-like details providing a textural contrast to the soft white down of the hawk’s underbelly. The high-contrast palette of deep black, crisp white, and cool blues, accented by subtle gold embroidery on the hawk's eyes and claws, creates a dramatic and commanding garment that symbolizes bravery and noble vision.

That so many gags in Shakespeare are references to 16th C lost media is a sobering thought. Imagine being so popular the greatest playwrights of your day are memeing on you, then 500 years later the only surviving reference to your work is a dick joke in a play where an elf tries to fuck a donkey.

Especially good after six weeks of being sick! 🎉

A night of laughing, delicious late breakfast, went for a walk in the sun with Bébé and saw seals (!), now it’s time for cake. A very good 24 hours🎉

Yaaaay! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Both disappointed and surprised none of my libraries have audiobook versions of Martha Wells’ Raksura series?

The sun finally came out here after two solid weeks of rain and fog (not a metaphor)

Happy happy birthday friends!! 💖🎉

🎉🎉🎉🎉

I love this for you

I hope he’s feeling better soon!

I’ve been doing the babiest of agility with Bébé the last few weeks and he loves it so much!

Every day he’s just ecstatic about it, big full body wags and bouncing and gleeful!

This morning he started putting himself through one of the exercises when my back was turned, he’s so pure 🥹

Hoooooo boy

The Hidden Shadow 烽火燃梅香 is finally going to drop (28th Feb). I wrote about it in my article @artreview.bsky.social as part of the female-written assassin-turned-nüxia (lady knight) trend that harks back to wuxia's origins (link below). #cdrama 1/

It’s Bébé

He was so cuddly and cute this morning after keeping me up half the night 😻 (funky alt-text to deter search results, sorry)
