Stormy skies today.

I really enjoyed 'Project Hail Mary' the film (I liked the book as well).

There is a lot of love for Brother Laser Printers out there (deservedly, in my experience).

B1 bombers flying over Swindon yesterday, quite possibly stuffed with cruise missiles.

Proud to say that I managed a mathematical heckle at a science comedy night.

Breaking news: man who could end world hunger and make serious roads into contesting climate change but instead chooses to make porn-AI accessible and cheerlead for fascists can’t work out why he’s not happy. 🧐

Opened the TripAdvisor app on my phone to see it was logged in with someone else's profile!

Sing like no one is listening. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like nobody’s watching. Email like you are going to be included in the Epstein files.

Say what you will about Hitler, at least he knew which countries he was invading.

My PADI Open Water certfication card looks rather faded. PADI want $56 for an electronic version to add to my phone! I don't think so.

"And we now have María on the line who would like to swap a Nobel Peace Prize for the presidency of Venezuela..."

So to be clear we have actually reached the point where NATO states are deploying tripwire forces to deter *another NATO state* from invading *another NATO state.* I struggle to communicate the strategic and just regular insanity of this moment.

Last year, London recorded just 97 homicides, a record-low rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people. Lower than Paris, New York and Berlin. Don't believe all the BS about 'no go zones'.

It was rather careless of the USA to put so much of their oil reserves under Venezuelea.

Maybe the Nazis were just playing the long game?

My garden Robin, waiting to be fed.

Bandit at 12 o'clock.

Pigeons are not my favourite animal, but they are beautiful in their own way.

Urban deer.

A (rather unwell looking) fox in our garden, this morning.

I have said this before, I will say this again: arming the Ukrainians to defend themselves is the best bang-for-buck in defense spending in decades. Give Ukraine munitions and they will reliably put those explosives on America's enemies. Just not on Trump's enemies and thus the problem.

Looking at my water bills since 2007, the cost of a m^3 of water has gone from £0.99 to £2.47 (249%) and waste water has gone from £0.48 to £1.54 (320%). Inflation went up 70% in the same period. Thames Water is taking the piss in more ways than one & the government is letting them get away with it.

Is the evil ash queen in 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' quite hot? Asking for a friend.

Hopefully we have seen the last of Jake Paul's boxing career. But I doubt it. I suspect a broken jaw isn't enough to stop his desparate need for attention.

More shots with new lens.

Our local Red Kite, Keith. Taken with my new 180-600 lens.

Sad that the BBC spends so much effort pandering to the people who are determined to destroy it. Infinite Monkey Cage won't be the same without @robinince.bsky.social .

if you’re wondering what TV & radio would look like without the bbc if the right had its way, picture the state of our privatised rivers & seas, but instead it’s raw sewage pumped into your telly & speakers

'Bugonia' is definately not your average hollywood fare. Worth seeing if you like your dark comedy more dark than comedy.
