These are the icy mountains of Pluto. It took 9 years to get these magnificent images… and 4.8 billion kilometers.

A neighbor was taken to a care facility, and her little tortoiseshell kitty was left behind. I can't take her in but I've been feeding her and giving her water every day. No one in the neighbor's family can take her in. Is there anyone in the Inland Empire area that could foster or adopt her?

This year, a prayer for presence with this #birddivination from the field bunting, still one of my favorites. As always, find it as a solo print and part of the deck of 100, along with the story and process behind them, at almanacofirds.org

Wondering how big the coyote is...

I am pretty sure that this man was rooting for the side that just fucked up the penalty they won. Serves him right for being a rude twat.

Sitting on a train with a fellow watching a football match on his phone, sound all the way up and no headphones. I'm trying to decide which orifice I'd most like to insert the phone into.

I'm thinking about how many of these are so big on busting out the rainbows when it's Pride season.

‘I wonder if the sap is stirring yet, If wintry birds are dreaming of a mate,        If frozen snowdrops feel as yet the sun And crocus fires are kindling one by one: Sing robin, sing: I still am sore in doubt concerning Spring’ ~ Christina Rossetti. 🖼️ William Bell Scott

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.

A joke for the history buffs: Germany’s satirical newspaper @der-postillon.com titles: “Vienna Academy of the Arts offers Trump admission as a student — They don’t want to get blamed again“

I assume they’re all narrated by Brian Blessed.

I doubt I will ever see a more inspired bit of upcycling.

hey train perverts wanna see the shinkansen cloaca

I got busy this week so I didn’t get to my Greenlandic artist of the day. It is Anne-Birthe Hove who prolifically worked as a graphic designer and printer at the Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. Her art interrogated the Greenlandic landscape. 1/3

Today I learned that there's a kind of fish called a Cisco, and I feel like there's an amazing pun aching to be made.

Honestly, if people don't think it's important that some things are true and some things are untrue, and that we absolutely have to be able to differentiate between true things and untrue things, I don't know what to say to them. We simply do not have any common ground to work on.

I would definitely buy a plant from this man.

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead. It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut. No regrets. Can't defeat fascism without joy.

There are gloves. And then there are GLOVES! These beautifully madly extravagant gloves in verdant velvet are pure #Schiaparelli, early #1950s and utterly de trop #madparisfr #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I just learned something today. When you win a Nobel Prize, you can also order up to 3 duplicate gold-plated Nobel medals, so you could donate one to your alma mater or wherever, or display one in your office without needing a lot of extra security. That's quite interesting, isn't it?

I wrote this short story about an obsession. With food and rice. And perfection. I like it. You might like it as well, who knows. chrisbulow.uk/2026/01/a-fa...

Sitting down is one lousy substitute for lying down.

SHELVED BY GENRE awakens far below the Misty Mountains, and with riddles and talking eagles and exploding pine cones, the hosts continue their discussion of THE HOBBIT! Also, we learn so much about what Tolkien thought of airplanes. rangedtouch.com/2026/01/16/t...

Hats off to whoever did this (and the beautiful model).

WOW! This late Roman blue glass cup made an epic 12,000 km journey! Made in the eastern Mediterranean, it was excavated from the Cheonmachong Tomb, a royal tomb of the ancient Silla Kingdom in Korea! 🤯 Early AD 500s. Gyeongju National Museum, South Korea. 📷 by me #FindsFriday #Archaeology

I remember the sheer weirdness the first time I played The Who Sell Out on YouTube and experienced a fake ad being interrupted by a real ad.

You should get this book and read it. It's REALLY good.

"we were dinosaurs, don't you forget it"

the only ADHD advice that anyone needs is: don't sit down, never sit down, sitting down is what gets you

I don't want to dwell on this too much because it's pretty pointless, however if you are going to post a wall of text in my replies, at least share the link where people can watch my latest feature film, The Whip, which received three stars from The Guardian youtu.be/vboUAIibXPo?...

This might well become a thread. I am calling it 'Bloody Hell, Aren't Doors On Old Walls Fucking Brilliant?'

My answer: yes, the recast Nobel medals were the same medals, BUT ONLY because the Nobel laureates survived the war and were able to get them back. So there was continuity of possession too. If either man had died, the recast medal wouldn't have been "the same" because it had never been "his".

Look, I know everybody loves making fun of Teh Unseasoned White People, but it's honestly more like this. "Now that we've *got* the recipe, is there really any reason for them to stay?"

The thing I most wish I'd thought of, apart form the irregular plural 'beeves wellington'.
