DEATH climbed down off the pale horse, sand, grit & concrete pattering on the floor. WAR grunted "Well we knew it was soon, but not fully Har-Magedon yet, just the Beast stirring" DEATH sighed "I just find it all so pointless, they all come to me anyway, why rush?" FAMINE burped "Dubai chocolate!"

uhhh oh my god

Spring has sprung. I got a sunburnt head outside a cafe enjoying affogato too. The world may be unraveling. Old men cling to power by killing young men women & children. Some places offer timeless respite. I cannot change what's happening. Doom scrolling is dangerous. Sunshine coffee & ice-cream?

The rich are now clearly in full control. Benefits to us? None. The trickle down from the actions they take are bodily fluids. Ours. Sex rings & wars fought. We are victims in both. Political parties? A made up fiction. They are all from the old money network, the political party, a front.

The Epstein Wars. History shows us that the early 2026 attack on other countries, whilst Americans slept both figuratively & actually, began the Forever Wars. Arguably these had been underway between America & the rest of the world for decades. Israel needed chaos to cement it's power. Har Megiddo.

THIS.

The face of the News anchor on Sky now. The weight of the world. News is full of war. Before, during & after war. What's left for humanity? A graveyard. Filled by old rich power hungry maniacs with you & your family. They already have so much. Better to rule in hell than serve in heaven? Kneel.

UK staff withdrawn from Tel Aviv & Tehran? The Epstein papers, after the Clinton's, have only one obvious person to question. So what will Trump do? War of course. Bonus? Can put off elections. President until he dies. King for life. The deaths? He won't care. 'Losers' is his view of the military.

Sky News don't seem as excited as the rest of us. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Npvw...

I’m in my edit for my Emmerdale episodes at the moment and feeling like a pig in shit (for want of a better phrase)… it’s where the magic is made! You also get found out if you haven’t managed to capture everything you need. 😬 So far so good! 🤞

No surprises, surely? Candidate is arrogant charmless TV presenter & hates everything: lose. Campaign is entitled technocracy + smearing left-liberalism: lose. Candidate is local & can make OK speech about how a good job should lead to a good life: win. Normal politics is trying to be born.

just stumbled upon an antique shop named 'the past & the curious' which

Death, the final frontier. This is the policy outcome of the Trump administration. His five year mission, to explore strange idiotic policies, to seek out new stashes of money & new methods of corruption. KIRK "I need to duck next time" SPOCK "Illogical captain, the orange glows visible from space"

I’m not hiking for the cardio; I’m hiking for the tiny miracles. I’m obsessed with the tiny signs of hope hidden on the trail, like the first flowers of early spring. In a loud world, these small, persistent cycles are where I find my peace. #SlowHiking #NatureMiracles #SpringFlowers

DEATH yawned "SOTU? As an anaesthetic it worked well but STFU was my reaction" WAR smiled "He's good for business but I just cannot understand how so many are give total power to an escaped dementia patient" The pale horse snorted "Don't fret, we will be on the road again soon it's apocalypse time"

A reminder that white nationalism isn't just abhorrent, it's stupid.

Diary of a Middle Aged Karateka: "Side kicks don't work" is something you hear a lot. It is not correct. Don 'The Dragon' Wilson made a whole career out of a devastating lead leg side kick, and he is not an exception. "Side kicks don't work" = "I don't want to put in the work to hone them."

Light. It's not just white here. It's gold, it's soft, it caresses. It reveals centuries in stone. Impossible blues of sea & sky. So many sandal feet & souls. In armies & empires long gone. But they left marks. Around every corner & bay. It draws a million eyes. Holiday not war. To share the light.

Enter the Dragon! On TV now. That film changed my whole life. From teaching a few students in angry white pyjamas in draughty church halls. To three classes of 50 each in every conceivable venue. I recall seeing it at the ABC Ardwick. No longer having to go to Chinatown at 2 am. A film of note.

I’ve just been denied entry to the Caves of Moria

UK citizen? Dual passport holder? You are going to be discriminated against if you try & enter the UK. You also need a £100 UK passport as well. Or pay a £600 fee to prove your entitled to come home! Why? How dare you be a citizen of the world. Oddly I am fine. I am a dual UK/Eire passport holder. ☘️

DEATH sighed "Another assassination attempt, it makes me weep, how many more before they get him?" WAR grinned "Well you still got a customer & your best hope for future deaths is still in play" DEATH looked out over the world "I know, it's just a waiting game" FAMINE picked up a phone "Takeaway?"

ITV News. "Searches continue for a fourth day in Windsor properties & nothing is off the table' Not impressed. I feel whatever they find on the table should be the first thing they look at! Amateurs. 🤔🤣

Brilliant 🤣

Time Travel? Of course it exists. We keep seeing travellers from the future trying to assassinate Trump & save humanity. Hitler was too far down stream. So far they keep failing. Those they send survived the apocalypse but are not capable assassins. But sooner or later one will finally get through.

$130 billion tariff windfall for Corporate America. The people who paid it? Nada. He is now doing it again. Rinse & repeat. Rinsed a whole country.

Just sometimes I think I'm doing Hookland right.

sending a river boat to sea might actually be the single dumbest thing this admin has ever done and I say that knowing who this admin is

This one hits hard.

A doorway to summer. Slow opening buds. Crops fed by storms now passed. Golden stones warm to the touch. Sea on the near horizon. Blue sky adding to its depth. Blue. Green. Pink. The soft touch of nature. On my slow walk. It lifts me up. In a world of confusion. This is real & unchanging. Dreaming.

DEATH picked up the phone "Yes? It is me. Trump? Not yet. Why? Not my decision, but the longer he is alive the more customers I get, so no rush from me" He put the phone back in the charger. WAR grunted "He needs to speed things up, I am bored" DEATH looked at the world "Patience, it's inevitable"

Court: Fuck you and your tariffs. Trump: Fuck you, Court. I appointed you. Court: ... Trump: DISGRACE TO THE NATION Court: ... Trump: 10% TARIFFS FOR EVERYONE Economists: ... Trump: Did I say 10%? I mean 15% He's going down over this.

Tha' storms passed Tha' stones remain Tha' walls didna last Tha' views tha' same Tha' sun beats daan Tha blue on blue dazzles Tha' fishermen frown Tha' cracked Luzzo hulls Scattered nets n planks Cracked concrete blocks All help with thanks This thousand natural shocks Life goes on Gozo works as one

A tariff “refund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

He left us 24 years ago today. Never forgotten, mate. 🙌 x

DEATH heard the alarm "Trumps tariffs triggered a blood pressure warning, a journey I am looking forward to!" WAR looked "Will he threaten you, bribe you, claim god told him to do it?" The pale horse lifted its tail & joined the conversation. "Splat" "A steaming pile of shit? Seems fair" Mount up.

Prior to the early 1920s, with the discovery of insulin by scientists Banting, Best, and McLeod, anyone who got type 1 diabetes died fairly soon afterwards. Someone I love has type 1 diabetes. Thank goodness for medical research!

War, huh,yeah, what is it good for, absolutely nothing 🎸🎸🥁 Except keeping pedophiles out of the news & courts. War means tears to thousands of mothers eyes. Some leaders don't care as long as they spend these final few short months in power & enjoying the dying of the light. As for god's judgement?

WAR sighed "Kings & queens have always been above the law, I get the divine right of kings rule, but times have changed!" DEATH chuckled "Well, this one's only an ex-prince" FAMINE chewed a pheasant leg "I love royal banquets" DEATH laughed "Famine was never invited, I remember 'let them eat cake'"

WAR pressed the TV remote "Another one bites the dust, these email things are quite the weapon!" FAMINE laughed "Royalty! Centuries of protection, if you ignore the poisonings & murders" WAR glanced over the papers "Well, lots of names here that may be next, I only know which ones I get to visit!"
