There used to be a time I enjoyed reading the Guardian. When the writing was quality. Not full of stories like this, led into by ignorant straplines and cheeky chappy xenophobia. Communication, understanding, exchanges of ideas, culture and emotion. All are “proper” excuses to be multilingual.

Will’s flint napping videos are always fascinating. youtu.be/qE8LWIb7Ci4?...

Done in response to pressure from the pro-Israel lobby. Then the museum lied about having done “audience testing”, the results of which they said were that the term “Palestinian” was no longer meaningful. All lies. That last part, imho, is particularly disgusting. youtube.com/shorts/r9lec...

Likely just more Israeli, Mossad false-flag chit-chat. Can’t have the demonisation of Iran lose momentum.

The name’s Go. LeGO. youtu.be/1VNXLUpdm0M?...

A load of potatoes from our veg patch in Fukushima just dropped. These little ones are gorgeous. Coated in miso, garlic and butter. With a pinch of sea salt.

“For security purposes.” Right. Like that loose reasoning won’t be abused. www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/07...

Better late than never, for US politicians waking up to these monstrous, genocidal Zionists. Their racism and their settler colonialist apartheid state. youtu.be/R2NYa2veU-s?...

Ha.

Hayabusa/Komachi Shinkansen passing through Koriyama just before our ride pulled in. Successful shoot. Last chapter of what has been a year-long series of shoots for the JNTO. Sometime in October there’ll be a blog post from me all about it. With lots of photos. Have a great weekend. Luv&peace ❤️🙏🏻

Shooting at a cucumber farm out near Mt. Bandai, Aizu, Fukushima. And inside the greenhouses. Yeah. Lovely. 35C outside. Dread to think what it was in the greenhouse. My brain was boiling.

More Meta wonderfulness. As much as leaving the platform three or more years ago cost me in visibility as a photographer, I’ve no regrets at all. Zuckerberg is a dreadful human being. Meta is a disease. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Ban this shit. Now.

Third prefecture of today. Now in Fukushima. Lunch soon. Two parts of today’s shoot left. More around Bandai tomorrow then we’re done. Back to Tokyo by about 10pm tomorrow night. Hot now. Gonna be a sweaty and tough second half of the day.

Meta are vile. Zuckerberg is a vile person. Quite typical of the broligarchy running our world. We all’s deserve better. As soon as user safety on Meta platforms threatens ad revenue, it’s abandoned. This is a powerful and potentially distressing video. Be advised. youtu.be/6-y726qvZ6Q?...

They couldn’t stop them writing. So they closed their bank account.

Backing up data and sifting through the archives. Pulled a few out for you. Wishing you a lovely evening. I’ve made spaghetti bolognaise and we have Joe, Minami and baby Emma over for an early dinner. Off to Aomori in the morning.

These people are monsters.

Nice day for printing Some new vibes gifts and a couple I sold but didn’t have the inventory. Also a new concept the remaining 2” of paper after I cut for final image are coated and made into $2 random contact strip book marks

I see “lose a game of football to a country and shit all over that country’s food” is theme du jour on here. Grow up, please.

Now on set. Shooting starts soon. And it’s Drum Machine O’Clock.

Good morning. On the train, on my way to meet the crew for today’s shoot. Tired. But there’s 45mins drive to the location after we meet. That’s 45mins nap time. 😴 Morning train tunes. Have a great day. Luv&peace ❤️🙏🏻 music.youtube.com/watch?v=kW8S...

Been shooting in Hayama today, since about 8.30am. Almost home. Out the house at 6am tomorrow. Shooting in Tokyo. Here’s a couple of shots from Kochi last week. Have a great evening, all.

A random selection of pencil drawings for sale. All are either £200 or less. I’d humbly suggest that these are criminally good value for money, but I’m not sure it’s my place to say so. #F1 #WEC #GT3 #Aviation #pleaseRP

Something groovy for you. Night night. Up at 5am-ish tomorrow for a shoot. #music youtu.be/meZdFl9RWN4?...

“Israel has installed 23 cranes mounted with remotely-operated machine guns in Gaza to shoot civilians, including at least two children, according to reports from human rights groups,” youtube.com/post/UgkxBGr...

There are 572 footballers playing in the World Cup. So far, in the course of their genocide, Israel has killed 567 Palestinian footballers. youtube.com/post/Ugkxi-2...

Even with Iran war Oil Shock high energy costs Japan govt prioritizes fossil fuels: coal, oil, gas & nuclear instead of investing more in clean energy: solar, wind & geothermal @japantimes.co.jp but article needs to make important connections for readers.. www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/07...

My poor head is spinning Creative bursts are exhausting in the midst of the constant fight with clouds I managed to run into the ravine and harvest some wildflowers to contact print with some of the remaining pages. It’s really not my bag and sun late in the day is hard to come by but I made it.

Pretty happy with today’s printing this shot was taken last week with my Rollieflex The building is No. 1 Thelma Ave. One of 9 Addresses Sold to developers now in the process of Building a proposed Luxury Condominium project called ONE Thelma

Back home from Shikoku. Back out on the tourism shoot in Kanagawa and Tokyo on Sunday and Monday. Wednesday off to Aomori and Fukushima. Thrown my laundry in the machine. Gonna get some lunch and have a slow afternoon.

Trump and Musk gave these people a death sentence. If you’re engaged in anything that supports either of them, you are complicit.

Even before the earthquakes, aid groups estimate nearly 8 million people in Venezuela were already in need of urgent humanitarian support. The World Food Programme is appealing for $50 million to provide food assistance to some 500,000 people in Venezuela over the next three months.

Good morning. Driving from Ehime, where we were shooting yesterday. Over to the Shimanto River in Kochi. Two locations to shoot today. Flying back to Tokyo tomorrow. Saturday off. Then it’s Hayama, Tokyo, Aomori & Fukushima. Morning tunes: music.youtube.com/watch?v=2t3d...

Heading to Shikoku today. To do a summer themed shoot. Ha. Yay.

Verbal interventions. Ha. Like, what? “Hey, Dollar-san, get your frikkin shit together!”

Ai is a cult.

Wow, that was truly amazing, the Strawberry Full Moon rising over Ely Cathedral this evening. Seen from Little Downham outside of Ely, Cambridgeshire 😍🌝 I didn’t think it was going to shine through the clouds, but it certainly did 🙏🏻🥰 #Fullmoon #strawberrymoon #ElyCathedral #amazing #Wonderful

Man, I hate the phrase “history will not look fondly on…..” There is literally less history of the human race due to the actions, lies and greed of the people Reich is referring to here. We don’t have time for history to judge these people. They need judgement now, so we can do something.
