DEATH sighed "Anthony Head, I don't set the timings, sometimes I wish I did, loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Giles" WAR grunted "I admit it, my guilty pleasure" FAMINE raised a half eaton crumpet "I salute him, I found his career joyous" DEATH patted the pale horse "We had a nice chat with Sarah"

WAR threw a knife at the dartboard "Bullseye! I never miss, it's too easy" FAMINE grunted "Hunger, greed humans natural state I am not challenged either" CONQUEST pocketed the knife "Yup, greed too" DEATH sighed "To resist evil to change that's the point they come to me anyway" The pale horse farted

Doom scrolling? Stop here for a while. Gozo heals. Relax. Take a breath. It goes on with or without you. Worry won't change it. Leave it for a day. Mela.....

It is a crime!

The sun does not sink here. It drops with a sizzle into the sea. Dusk is seconds. It just goes granting relief from its scorching rays. But the heat? It lingers. Gozo. Xlendi. Summers.

America. A country in constant mourning. Not for its war dead but its gun dead. The number keeps growing along with the number of guns on the streets. Unlike a war in a far flung land (fought with missiles & drones) war at home is fought with guns & Americans flesh & blood. There is no peace deal.

DEATH climbed down off the pale horse groaning "Doing this for centuries & it does not get any easier" WAR swung a sword "It's boring, drones are taking the fun out of my work, I just sit here pressing buttons" FAMINE waved a taco "Well pestilence is back at last" DEATH smiled "Apocalypse now?"

Entrance? Exit? Explore Gozo? Chill by the pool? BBQ? Wolt or Bolt delivery of takeaway? Your choice here. Chill.....

There's a new ruler in the world of Arabian fitness drinks. The Protein Sheikh. 🐢💨

Netanyahu cannot let peace occur because then he will be prosecuted for his crimes.

It's crazy how we have both the World Cup and America 250 this year and almost no one cares about them because the administration has wholly sucked the joy out of even momentous national events

Another cartoonist telling it like it is! #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks

105 years ago, Klanners massacred and bombed Tulsa OK. To learn so late in life about Tulsa, and Juneteenth, and all the other horrors Black Americans endured has infuriated me. My 70-some years have been spent learning truths and unlearning lies. My grandchildren will know. Goddamn, America!

Inertia the American way Nod & agree with all they say Blind to the evil Deaf to the lies Loss of free will No matter who dies Money is the root they water Ethics the branch they prune War & Weapons of slaughter Playing the same old tune Attack is only self defence To those in the situation room

WAR smiled "I love a good football match, the skill, tactics, chess in mud, sweat & tears" FAMINE pulled up a chair & opened a bag of Doritos "Closest thing to war I suppose, very satisfying" DEATH grunted "I prefer real warfare, it gets me more business" WAR leant back "Arsenal, my sort of team!"

Technology is our triumph & our danger. This was a blood red moon. My camera phone disagreed. Our eyes process images. Our brains process images. All that you see is all you'll ever be? Not necessarily. Perception. Schrodingers cat. Both on & off & faster than light. String theory. Imagineer it?

Saturday on Gozo. Election day. So it's time to party. Win or lose. So get some scenery where it's quiet. Relax.

Slow Horses- Any episode. Dark Side of the Moon - all the way through. Sunset at Gozo Sunset Stay - Any evening. The world still makes no sense - but life does now so let's dream of tomorrow. But with a steady eye & heart. gozosunsetstay.com

At the end of the day, Trumpism will collapse because they are stupid and thick

ANTIFA… Peaceful folks sticking up for the constitution and the right to “Due Process” for “All Persons” exactly like the constitution says. History will remember the indisputable fact that protesters are mostly American patriots and ICE is the criminal organization violating the constitution.

"Anomaly, the new word for utter disaster it seems for US space program' DEATH twirled a toy rocket in bony fingers "The race to see the face of god, or corruption got a new outlet?" WAR smiled "I only like rockets when they are missiles blowing stuff up" FAMINE laughed "A private sector speciality"

A distant thud followed by faint screaming then DEATH strode onto the room "Home shopping, finally got Amazon to deliver" WAR rattled a sabre "What are you possibly going to buy from them that we want?" FAMINE grinned "Takeaways & led lights for the Pale Horse?" DEATH laughed "Amazon workers souls"

WAR swearing at the screen "Drones, fuc*ing hate them give me a warhorse & blood stained sword, this has no honour" FAMINE grunted "It's like the fuc*ing food, pretend flavours, water & chemicals, I miss chicken" WAR stood "Fuc*ing censorship, fuc*, I blame Trump" DEATH smiled "He's a cu*t leader"

Buddy of mine recently bought a guy’s collection of 35,000 marbles he dug out of ghost town dumps in New Mexico over a lifetime. After sorting, here are the glow in the dark ones doped with uranium

DEATH blew a bubble "I am bored, I have been hovering over him for months, he's doing gods work to hasten Har Megiddo but in such a stupid way" WAR popped a bubble "I know, peace talks whilst firing missiles, is it a war or a cease fire, I get whiplash" FAMINE stirred some bubble tea "Jam tomorrow?"

Today I examined why Europe's Christian Democrats continue to parrot Trump and the tech bros in saying the EU should not regulate AI, even as the Pope says a failure to regulate would put humanity in danger.

DEATH glided over to the window on hell "I preferred earlier centuries, I know I was omniscient but I don't wallow in knowledge like they do now, I believe they call it doom scrolling?" WAR guiltily put down the phone "It's research I am keeping an eye on conflicts" FAMINE grunted "Good recipes too"

DEATH slammed down the phone "Royal Mail has been unable to deliver your parcel, then asking I log onto a web site?" WAR sighed "Spam call quality has declined significantly over the last year, they do not convince" FAMINE smiled " Easier ways to steal now?" DEATH logged on "You want my details?"💀💩

WAR put down the screen "I'm going to sue, negotiating peace but firing missiles at each other, they are giving me a bad name!" DEATH sighed "What's in a name, they are led by a lunatic who has no idea what day it is & thinks he's the chosen one" FAMINE waved a taco "They claim I am a just a diet"

WAR slammed down the drone control "In & out of hospital, dropping bombs & holding peace talks, I am waiting for Har Megiddo & he's playing games" DEATH sighed "I keep hovering but they keep dragging him back no idea why as he does not even know what day it is anymore" FAMINE smiled "Judgement Day?"

Hanta virus Ebola Virus. COVID Virus Is it us? Gaia waking? Humanity Virus? War Virus? Global warming fuss. Magic V science. MAGA cultists. Woke as the enemy. Fascism as a friend. Hate the other. Burn the books. Kill the comics. Enslave women again. Children as commodities. Ethics rejected.

FBI spent our tax dollars collecting this voluminous file on Epstein/other rich guys and never did a thing with the information?

History? It's repaired & refurbished but never forgotten here. Ghajnseilem. I dare you to pronounce it. Hint. The first 4 letters are silent. Why? It's Gozo, they are resting.

Passwords. Code numbers. Secret question. Text messages. At 72 I am stressed by the lengths I have to go to online to do anything. My brain hurts. It's getting worse with the more apps I explore. Scams are sophisticated too. I operate in 2 countries. Several phones. Personal & business. 🤯💩 It hurts

Spiral staircase. A nod to the past. Wooden beams. History preserved. Gozosunsetstay.com The relaxed way To spend a day Or three

Dining + Living + View. Gozo has it all. Don't even need to go out. But that would be a waste of your precious time. Time passes slower here. Maybe later. But for now? Read & Chill. Maybe float in the pool. Drink in that view. Sink onto the silence. Order a takeaway? Film? 😴 gozosunsetstay.com

Dawn was nice too. The valley at the back gives stunning views. But the distant sea from the roof terrace over the farmers fields is equally photogenic. Today it delivered. Summer sun baking the golden stones & fields. Ghajn Dhamma. Spring of Damma. An underground spring here. gozosunsetstay.com

A Salt Pans walk in the hot sun. Sometimes the scenery I live in takes my breath away. Nature. The artist. Humanity. The audience. Centuries of salt traders knew this place at the crossroads of empires. Gozo. A jewel in the Mediterranean.

America. Guns. Oddly no one seems to look at the number of people with mental health issues who turn up shooting in public places & consider the danger guns pose. Another shooting outside the White House. Of course that's more ammunition for 'Fort Ballroom' in the shrinking mind of Trump. Guns kill.

Generational Wealth. A phrase I heard today about the only way to do more than survive in America. It gave me pause. America was seen as the land of opportunity, where you could start with nothing & make you & your family a life of plenty. What changed? How have those at the top locked out the rest?

I’m finally home from my French hell. ‘In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance, my head is bloody, but unbowed.’ Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. 🙌

If redistricting wasn’t about racism, someone please explain to me why only black communities were redistricted and white districts were left alone?

So you're telling me that if I went to the capitol and beat the hell out of some police officers with an American flag, and then built a guillotine and threatened to hang the Vice-President, and then wiped shit on the capitol walls during my visit, I may be entitled to compensation? Fuck!

@reecedinsdale.bsky.social while you are drinking in the chateau bottled sunshine in the south of France! I am toiling under a Gozo sun. Retirement & blogs were not enough. June 2026. The launch of gozo sun set stay. Stone built 4 bedroom 4 bathroom cliff edge farmhouse & private pool. Wish me luck!

Gozo. Rabat. Recently (1887) renamed Victoria. Narrow old stone house lined alleys under a deep blue sky. Time matters little here. The Gigantia Temple ruins are 5500 years old. So a century or two? A blink of the eye. Under the gaze of the fortified Citadel built in the 1500s. On a bronze age fort.

Local artists metal butterflies added to the farmhouse today. Stunning brightly painted colours. Had to have them in the rooms of our holiday let farmhouse. The artist's grandfather created the statue opposite down in the valley. A moving link across generations in Gozo. share.google/fPAvtZvWgVaR...
