I love this piece by Charles Radtke in Mortise & Tenon magazine — Radtke told Glenn Adamson that he used as many different kinds of joints as possible, both to challenge himself and “to communicate the handmade quality of his work”…

Old Athens : am I blue #Athens #UrbanPhotography #windowsOfAthens

Groenplaats (2025) photograph by Anne Billson

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

Kind of crazy that evidence is mounting that the world is run by a group of rapists, pedophiles, and men convinced of women’s inmate natural inferiority, and the pundit class is trying to convince us that the real social crisis is that men are victimized and lonely because women have too many jobs.

This is one of my favourite Ms. Aikaterini Marias. #Athens #UrbanPhotography #StreetArt #MariaCallas

There’s no polite way to ask someone to stop posting artificially generated images, is there? “I love what you have to say, please no slop“ is still intrusive and controlling. I’m going to have to put up with it or unfollow someone whose other posts I will miss.

yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

We’re screwed.

Now I know I can live my best life in Athens.

Let me just add: If Nick Sousanis, who draws the most intricate and detailed works of the intellect I have ever seen on the page, can write descriptive alt text, you can bloody well describe your snapshots.

well, no aurora visible here, but I think my drawings of how stars work in this chapter touch on part of why it happens... bsky.app/profile/nsou...

Ruins of Athens: Kountouriotika #Athens #UrbanPhotography

“There were no political or religious motivations. They were rich people who went there for fun and personal satisfaction. We are talking about people who love guns who perhaps go to shooting ranges or on safari in Africa.” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

In a significantly weirder case, "Sleeping Lady with Black Vase" is a 1928 oil painting by Róbert Berény. It was lost in WWII, and considered looted by the Nazis and likely destroyed afterwards in the chaos... until someone recognized it as set dressing in the movie "Stuart Little." Yes, really.

Looks like Sarah Kendzior’s suspension isn’t an error. I don’t know Sarah, but I’ve followed her on and off for like 15 years and this is very surprising to me. I’m not big on assuming the worst based on partial information but this feels bad.

I’d like to know, too. In what way did Sarah Kendzior violate the terms of use here, please? @bsky.support? #SarahKendzior

I know who isn't!

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF! Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!

Creative pals, we need you! A group of us are running an auction to raise funds for the Emergency Response Rooms in Sudan. Sudanese people are dealing with the worst humanitarian crisis since records began. Can you donate mentoring/art/signed books etc? SIGN UP HERE: www.sudancoup.com/auction

Nice work, timeline.

Thunder, rain on the island. Mournful squawk of damp peacocks. Trees in the forest rejoice.

Say it with me: Tea Party of the Left That is what this moment calls for: A loud, uncompromising, ideological faction that exists solely as opposition to the other side and pushes their own side toward hardline policy positions.

The BBC simply is not a robust, independent institution. Those who clap and cheer at these resignations are only having a short-term fillip - for this capitulation indicates a less-than-healthy wider polity.

Abstract #Athens #UrbanPhotography #StraightFromTheCamera

One of the most important lessons one can learn about negotiation is that, whenever you're dealing with someone you know is not trustworthy (or who has no honor or integrity), never exchange a real commitment for a promise of future action on their part Always make your action contingent on theirs

Hey kids, we are a small Irish family business. We make lovely things by hand. Could you buy something so we can pay for our Christmas packaging? Thanks a mill. #Boycottamazon #shoplocal slated.ie Reposts would be fabulous. #SLATED

Never used it, never looked at it, never will. I turn off AI results in browsers and everything else whenever I can.

I’ll put it more simply: my first (and best) aerobatic flight instructor looked me in the eye before our first lesson and said: “remember, airplanes really like the ground. They really really like the ground.”

Real question bc there’s clearly a media culture thing here that I am not getting: Why are we not seeing citations to Sarah Kendzior, who has been on this exact beat for years? What is it about her and/or her work that has made it acceptable to ignore her?

"the question was being answered by a rackety storm ploughing towards the sage and the boys. What formed through the ploughing, before Rama, was a normal sized woman but with eyes gobbing fire, with fangs dribbling molten. All of it hung on an old mama bereft of her boys and husband. Good grief!"

i love making indian food and opening my container of asafoetida and remembering that all over the world wherever people have used it they've named it some version of "the devil's shit"
