A sky

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

If a movie is not directed by Shane Black, can it even be called a Christmas movie?

Daisy, Daisy, give me your Hüsker Dü

Introduce tourself with 5 animals you've seen in the wild: gull squirrel fox (in the street near the bins counts as 'in the wild', right?) crow pigeon

Less of a sunset, more of a moonrise

The sky was very bright

I am now playing cluesbysam.com because @ailbhe.ossifrage.net introduced me to it.

sometimes I see a post and a person is having a little complain, indulging in a little moan. And sometimes I feel like I have a precise answer that might be helpful but the moan does not have a request for answers/advice on it. So I don't. but it's hard! So I'm having a little moan about that

Caught a rainbow today

Sunset

Sunset, with a touch of pink

Hey boy, are you the mines of Moria, because I want to say friend and enter

all these "post yourself from a previous era" posts seem to be just photos of people when they were younger? where's all the past lives and/or immortality reveals?

excuse me while I burn down the entirety of France for making my Monin syrup unbearable (they put the artificial sweetener in it)

has anyone shown this to their mp btw

But if I make a cup of tea, I'll have to wash a mug, or instruct the dishwasher to wash mugs

The space elevator project was funded by the world's billionaires, who were offered exclusive luxury tickets on the first ride up into space. After the launch, the project announced a second funding round, to start looking into the feasibility and advisability of installing a "down" button.

I just read a story by Derek Des Anges and really enjoyed it: 'In the Trenches', which was scary and funny and sad and had mermaids. From the short story collection, 'Our Chives of Shame'

I am making soup

I think the opposite of imposter syndrome would be Lady Catherine de Bourgh syndrome: "If I had ever learnt, I should have been a great proficient". The assumption that one would be great, if one tried

Got brighter as I was looking at it

I recommend Derek's books, he's a good writer and they are good books

This evening's sunset

today I am angry at every decision maker at Fentiman. Why does the rose lemonade have steviol glycosides in it? It used to not.

Thinking about the book, The Next Big One by @derekdesanges.bsky.social and how it's full of hope and spite and contains a man who is not a kpop idol, he just looks like that

I made some zhoug today

Evri day (a neat row of several packages delivered to my building today, for several different flats. All left next to the lift)

Want to send the gp a note that just says 'please help' and not have to explain what's wrong

Well, if it’s 4 July, it must be... YES! 136th anniversary of 15-year-old messenger Charles Swinscow being questioning for theft. Which would have been a very dull anniversary, had he not confessed to doing ‘favours’ for gentlemen, revealing a scandal that reached Queen Victoria’s grandson...

I forgot the robot hermit crab but I remember the skating catgirl

I've got a joke about Penelope but I keep having to rework it

I want somebody to bake me a fruit salad rainbow cake, with each tier a different flavour as well as a different colour

Happy Pride Month! I'm here, I'm queer, I'm trans, I'm broke, why not give me your money in exchange for my queer & trans books [which also have like plots and stuff, I promise]? derekdesanges.itch.io
