The BBC needs overhauling but not like this. It's a very worrying situation.

He's bankrupted companies, trying to bankrupt the USA, hypocritically offended at being called out as a liar, screaming fake news, and trying to bleed a public service organisation dry. The BBC needs a huge overhaul but not like this. #donaldtrump #fakenews #grifter #suingbbc #bbc Image: Facebook

In a moment of idleness I wondered who cooked the meals and what or whom went into these meals. I'm loath to reread it until next Summer, ensuring maximum daylight is available whilst I enter the shadowy world within its pages. It's still a powerful but disturbing work. Image: Facebook

I live in the UK but celebrate this victory as I don't live in a silo. Events in the USA also affect the rest of the world. Sadly the usual racist and Islamaphobic trolls are coming out in response to this. Regardless, congratulations. #zohranmamdani #newyorkcity #usa #mayor #racism #islamophobia

A return to that chat with Anpu (Anubis) the ancient Egyptian God of the Death. Asar (Osiris) later took on that position. But Anpu will always occupy that role for me. #anubis #anpu #ancientegypt #death #life #reflections #initiations #becoming #illumination

A grifter par excellence. Who knew he was so multi-skilled? So many balls in the air, ah, wouldn't you love to kick em? Where does he find the time to do the jobs and spout his racist and fascist rhetoric? #ledbydonkeys #activists #nigelfarage #fascist #racist #ukpolitics #grifter #trumppwannabe

The world is still continuing to be as crazy as ever. So, taking a moment to ponder on life. I wrote this piece a few years in an imaginery conversation with the Great God of Death, Anubis. Plenty to reflect on here eh? #reflection #chaos #anubis #love #immortality #death #britishpolitics

I wonder where this state of Being will end up. Somewhere, someone, is always Becoming something else, someone else. As am I. Stasis is not an option in a Universe in constant flux and entropy. #reflection #lifegoals #introspection #gnosis #feral #being #knowledge (Image: Facebook)

I recall you in my dreams Mighty and ancient Fair Folk, Harbingers of ancient prophecies, And artificers of Time. Memory of you fluctuates, spirals Around me. I hear your songs yet cannot sing them. I sense you but cannot touch you. Speak and break this silence. Come. #SenseWrds131 #faery #writing

King Odysseus is a paradoxical figure. Perhaps an encapsulation of all that drives humanity in it's seach for self-insight, grief and longing for a return to a home that may be an idealistic dream. There is much to reflect in this (flawed) Hero's Journey.

We've survived, so a big hurrah is in order folks. Trickster Coyote brings illumination as well as an opportunity for change.

"A woman, aged 77, was arrested on suspicion of assault, racially aggravated public order and threats to kill." Utterly, utterly disgusting act. The hate speech spewed, and that's the only word that fits, is enabling people to act out in horrific ways. #hate #racist #assault #worcester #uk #baby

Erich Neumann describes the mysteries of rebirth as an initiation into union with the Great Nocturnal Mother. "You become a star in the night—a luminous infant glittering in her dark belly, a point of light sparkling on her nocturnal cloak."

Badenoch is the current leader of the Tories, who aren't in power and one hopes will never get back in power. Politics is filled with unhinged and dangerous people now. #kemibadenoch #conservativepartyuk #racism #ukice #migration #deportation

We're living in an angry world at the moment which isn't doing anything for our wellbeing and safety. I'm not a Buddhist but listen to this, and feel it does help. Anything that helps us bring compassion into our lives and offering to others is good. #buddhism #heartsutra youtu.be/xHYh76SoLSc?...

Time for art to soothe the spirit. A rather atmospheric offering.

Jane Goodall said she’d like to send off to another planet: Musk, Trump, Putin, Xi & Netanyahu. 🚀

Calm after the stormy weather yesterday. A welcome sight. Sometimes it feels like balance and inner calm are impossible goals to aspire to. Yet, our inner light still burns and we carry on buoyed up by hope. #Photography #landscape #northwales #sunset #innercalm #balance #musings #life #beauty

On the previous day I could only manage to take photos of the sky from inside the house. Standing outside in high winds wouldn't have been a good idea! It looked like a wound had opened up in the sky. A metaphor for our current world state? #Photography #landscape #northwales #storms

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life? #TwentyfiveFortyseven

It may be time to post this. "Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley, 6th Baronet, was a British aristocrat and politician who rose to fame during the 1920s and 1930s when, disillusioned with mainstream politics, he turned to fascism." (Wikipedia) #oswaldmosley #blackshirts #britishfascists #cablestreet #uk

Tommy Robinson (one of his many pseudonyms) should be behind bars. His violent agitation and rabid racism has gained supporters like Musk and now this. #tommyrobinson #racist #extremist #theboardofdeputiesofbritishjews (From Facebook)

Kate Jenkins' work certainly encourages smiles. Her work consist of pop art crochet, knit and embroidery creations. She is best known for her food focused work. Art and humour are a wonderful partnership! #art #crochet #knitting #embtodery #food #humour #katejenkins katejenkinsstudio.co.uk

bear appreciation post for the autumnal equinox ☀️🍂

View across the valley at 19:03 this evening. A welcome sight and bringing hope that the Light will never be vanquished. Fiat Lux! #photography #sunset #landscape #Light #spiritual

I'm rather fond of Highland cattle, which this individual isn't. We were staying in a bothy on a farm near an inland loch, and there were quite a few cattle wandering around. #photography #northuist #cow #westernisles #scotland #bothy #loch

A lovely portrait of Audrey Hepburn. I have to admit black and white photography (or even cinematography) excels at teasing out nuances that can elevate the project to great heights. Does this sound pretentious? Didn't mean it to. #b&wphotography #audreyhepburn #jackcardiff

Back again. I'm torn between deactivating my BSky account either long term or deleting it. I'll keep it open as there's a lot that's wothwhile here. Anyway, further Reform UK related news. I'm closing my Nationwide accounts now. Shocking state of affairs. #reformparty #nationwidebuildingsociety

I wish this was real... (Image: Facebook)

Has Melania joined witness protection?

Her fingers trailed over the box, repository of dark secrets and possible tragedy. Its silver key lay nestled in her left hand, warm and throbbing with life. Should she open the box and finally release the catalyst that would free her from stagnation? #SenseWrds119 #streamofconsciousness

As a former Londoner, British and World Citizen, I heartily applaud Daniel Lismore's words. Britain isn't perfect, nor is any other place in the world. One planet, one chance of survival but you racists and fascists aren't going to inherit it. (Screenshots: Facebook)

I need to inject a little light into my newsfeed. Ruin a song name by changing ONE letter. Mine would be: I Only Have Pyes for You

Literally Smells Like Teen Spirit

This is worrying for us in the UK. Tommy Robinson is also a particularly vile racist agitator like Musk. Yet our government continues to do nothing to tackle the rising tide of fascist and racist extremism encouraged by Musk, Tommy Robinson, Nigel Farage and others. #elonmusk #tommyrobinson

Musical interlude to dilute the counteract the ongoing horrible chaos in the world. I'd forgotten how good this track was. #bozscaggs #classictrack

Along Loch Lomond. I like the skies in Scotland, hence such shots. The journey continues to home. Simply Red's song "Home"came on the radio whilst we were driving on the road adjacent to the Loch. Made me smile. #lochlomond #scotland #journey #home #landscape #photography

Travelling through Glencoe and Rannoch Moor en route home to Wales. These photos don't illustrate the grandeur of both locations though. #photography #landscape #scotland #glencoe #rannochmoor #journey

Travelling through Skye. My partner was driving so I was able to take these photos. What a difference in the weather, beautiful and sunny. When we were staying in the Uists, Western Isles, there were numerous days of stormy weather. #skye #scotland #journeyhome #westernisles #photography

As Labour keeps haemorrhaging members the Green & Your Party continue to grow ...

Starmer suspended seven Labour MPs for refusing to vote to keep children poor – but Mandelson still has the whip...

An early morning start on the first ferry out. Will be very glad to get home to Wales. We have to get over Skye Bridge and then it's back on mainland Scotland. #ferryjourney #departure #westernisles #scotland #home #wales

#FolkyFriday 🦊 #PhantomFriday 👻 In Japanese folklore, the Kitsune no Yūrei—the ghost fox—haunts lonely roads & forest paths. These spectral foxes are said to appear on misty nights, their glowing tails flickering like lanterns, leading travelers astray or send eerie messages from the spirit world.

That's how people of colour feel now, including myself, seeing the replay of violent racist agitators attempting to plunge the UK into civil war. This, whilst our PM, Keir Starmer, considers it more important to host Trump and Herzog. FFS.

The Captain Kronos films were rather enjoyable. A good addition to the Dracula films.

Time to step back and chiil. #zero7 #mozez #chilled
