Still too much but fab start

Had to take some people to hospital in Kidderminster earlier this week. With an hour to spend I thought I'd have a drive around. From the traffic lights I spied this canal boat moored up alongside Sainsbury's. So I had to take a look. #Canal #Boat #Kidderminster #Worcestershire #Photography

They don't exist any more, so there's no danger of giving them money. But if you buy any of the remaining Unbound books by ex-Unbound authors, the authors get nothing. A company called OOINYA is selling them on Amazon, and should be avoided.

Fuck yeah Let’s right that wrong

Aurora last night in South Shropshire. Even to the South at one point! Shame the clouds got in the way a bit. #Aurora #Shropshire #NorthernLights #NightPhotography #Photography #Astrophotography

I've been experimenting with particle effects to make decent looking fire, water, and snow without crashing your browser. That led to making something that looked like a fuse, and I though "I should use climate data" Honestly, I think this one worked out well. Love any feedback. Source in comments

Palantir was a warning sign. Keir Starmer choosing to hand our data and security to US tech companies is an outrageous failure of judgment. All in the name of "investment." What about national security?

"I don't think Nigel is the bloke that you want to have running your kids schools or running your local hospital or trust, your savings, your pension, your small business too." I couldn't agree more Robert...

That day, when, trying to edit a Photo of Brown Clee Hill in Shropshire with an amazing cloud behind it, I clicked on the wrong button and created Armageddon! 😱😀 Can't remember what the editing package was, but I don't use it now! #Shropshire #BrownClee #CleeHills #EditFailure #Armageddon

Tried taking a photo of the moon with the phone at 9am a couple of weeks back, not hugely successful with the phone camera zoomed to its 5 year old limit. Got photo bombed by a magpie that apparently beat the 'Merkins back to the moon. 😀

THIS!!!!!!!!!! 👇 #Farage wants to make life difficult for you & your family. He wants you to give him & his cronies MORE of your money, just don't ever become sick, unemployed or old. Just WHY are you voting for an old #Racist??

President Trump, "We're freezing all welfare payments going to illegal immigrants" - except they don't get any welfare payments Sounds like Reform UK who make the same claim, knowing that that isn't the case

"All of the reductions in carbon emissions we’ve achieved through sustainable sources and electric vehicles will be reversed by the inexorable rise and insatiable appetite of AI."

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Seven Select Committee Chairs have written jointly to the Prime Minister calling for an explicit ban on cryptocurrency donations in the forthcoming Elections Bill. This is not an argument about digital assets. It is an argument about democratic integrity.

X / Twitter should be banned over the whole #deepfakes issue anyway - but for a US congresswoman to threaten to sanction us if we do is all the more reason to do it. The US bullying and threats need to be stood up to. www.lbc.co.uk/article/us-c...

Still don't appear to be able to get a car off the drive since Storm Goretti! So here's a bit of snow from a few years back at Wenlock Priory when I used to live about half a mile away. #Shropshire #Photo #Photography #Snow #History #MuchWenlock

Laila Cunningham vs Michael Gove If you still think Reform UK is any different from the Tories... STOP CHEWING BATTERIES!

Farage wants to bring Trump’s death squads to the streets of Britain. Together, we will stop him. www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news...

PEOPLE - THE MAJORITY - WANT BREXIT UNDONE. STARMER WILL HAVE NONE OF IT! Why? Because he’s frightened of the minority. It makes no sense. He’s frightened of Farage whose Achilles heel is Brexit. It makes no sense. #Labour

Farage is a foot soldier in Trump’s oil war He’s been importing the president’s oil agenda architects open.substack.com/pub/writesbr...

Britain left the EU because people told us we had greater security and financial relationships with the USA. Happy now?

Their Social Media presence is as fake as the polls about their support.

As the New Year takes hold, it's more important than ever that we don't just stand alongside our trans family and friends. We need to be the shield they can rest behind as parts of this world makes their lives so very bloody difficult. 🏳️‍⚧️🫂🏳️‍⚧️

I just found out that our stuff is being sold on Amazon - WITHOUT our consent or any ability to opt out bc Amazon is just scraping artist’s websites and putting our shit in their search results. Again, without our permission.

THIS is one of the easiest ways to take action against Palantir EVER!! All done with a click & I urge you to do the same Thank you @goodlawproject.bsky.social notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...

How does Moscow view Donald Trump at the end of 2025? One Russian paper today: “The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World…he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold to be destroyed…” #ReadingRussia youtu.be/7EwZNk6KgHU

NEW: last night, the US govt launched an assault on the ‘global censorship industrial complex’, aka European tech researchers/campaigners. It’s a deeply chilling move & speaks as to why we need international solidarity more than ever. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

The people in my record collection just seem to get fewer and fewer... RIP Chris Rea.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Happy St Lucy's day! soundcloud.com/policedoghog...

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault. This has been in the press for 2 days. The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it… And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh look. They’ve actually drawn a diagram for all the people stupid enough to need a bloody diagram.

Nice to see that little Nigel is being consistent, isn't it? How the hell did we end up with a vicious anti-Semite, and Russian sympathiser (whose right-hand man pleaded guilty to accepting Russian bribes) as a serious contender for government? What are we doing in this place? 🤮

It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says: "The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order." That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories. How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?

Some might say, hacking billboards is noble work. 😉

So a former 𝗨𝗞𝗜𝗣 and 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁 party MEP, named in a series of WhatsApp messages between an alleged "pawn" of the main security agency in Vladimir Putin's Russia and disgraced former MEP Nathan Gill, now appears to be living in a 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝘂 in 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲. Hmm. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
