www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... RIP Tony Head

Same - my first thought was of Jay. What a good bloke Tony Head was.

never a bad time to remind everyone that Farscape exists and is free to watch and is easily one of the top five space shows ever made. Has been described as "one American astronaut's introduction to the Australian kink scene, with muppets" and that's only like 1/5th of it but I got a character limit

I've been living in a hotel since mid-2024, and I've finally found an apartment if I can come up with $2500 up front for the deposit + first month's rent.

Funny how the “right” accent means you get to stay.

It's not the 1940s where we couldn't see what was happening in other countries, the world can see the prejudice happening and they are voting with their feet. www.youtube.com/watch?si=mLW...

Most wholesome warmup sketch today ... #blessed

Today I have mostly been to the beach.

It's a magical sort of evening, where the sky tells stories across the wood. (It's chuffing cold)

Some speedy ones off my phone before bed, for further information on the above.

@suzvoy.myatproto.social just put something in the post to you. Should arrive by end of the week!

She's being a bit dramatic this morning. Sudden, brilliant green spikes and then gone again before you can blink, only to reappear moments later over a different mountain

Big dog having a big dream (but with tiny boofs because he doesn't actually know how to bark properly - turning the sound on will improve your day)

Acceptable sort of Friday 8am dog walk

Just to be clear, life up here is hard. The day/night cycle is broken, the water is toxic, the power supply is fractious, the snow is aggressive, the bears are huge, housing is at crisis point and the hospital is under equipped. It's also fucking magical and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Back in my stride and there is literally nothing you can do to stop me, don't waste your time trying 😂

Quiet morning wander. Just me, the dogs and the sky

A very strange part of the world, underneath a very strange part of the sky 🍃

Rotten apples don’t fall far from the tree.

I have had very, very little sleep 😂 Sneaky preview, quick processing in Snapseed only

lmao

Saw a food influencer say with a straight face she discovered a little known ingredient that can zhuzh up any food from soups to noodles. This secrect ingredient? Gochujang It's like when they "discovered" Mt. Everest

Been playing down at the beach

My feelings as a human in 2025:

I'm still living in a hotel and struggling to cover bills, and I could use any help that I can get. Donations are appreciated so much, but even just sharing this post to get more eyes on it is very helpful as well. #HelpSky #MutualAidRequest cash.app/$Settiai paypal.me/poicelle venmo.com/u/Settiai

Absurd. (Unedited photo straight from the webcam at lns-spitsbergen.kystnor.no )

Welcome back to the 'don't look now but the sky's doing weird shit' part of the year

Are you looking for a sign to run away and live in the Arctic wilderness? Because it's that time of year again where there are so, so many signs.

This could be a long and rambling thread. Be patient with me. I bought an old mahogany bureau on Ebay. I didn't really want a bureau as we're meant to be downsizing, but it was a beautiful piece & obviously very old. Google lens suggests the brass chased handles are Queen Anne. That's 1702-1714 😯

Msn, I wish I could cancel a Disney+ subscription in protest, but I never signed up for it in the first place on account knowing their moral bankruptcy ab arche and not trusting them with an inch of my data. So all I can do is badmouth them on an obscure social media account. Boooo!!! :P

Some throwbacks to my very first dark season up here. We're a couple of weeks out from aurora season now and I am so excited I am basically vibrating

The Saga Farmann has moored up on the north side of the Thames next to London Bridge, will head into St Katherine Docks tomorrow at 4:30pm and be there until Sunday, and will be open to visitors.

Sooo I was at a coffee shop and the girl in line behind me decided to ask if I’d heard about Jesus. In the United States. In 2025. “I have heard the sales pitch, yes,” I said. “I’m happy with my current religious services provider and not looking to make a switch.”

Oh what a surprise.

🥵🥵🥵😭😭😭

This whole thread is why I wear a mask. Imagine being the reason this granddad could no longer talk to his family? Could no longer play with them, spend time with them? COVID is airborne, you are infectious before you show symptoms. Wear a mask, it's not rocket science. It's community care

She was a second-year agriculture student when the Taliban barred women from attending university, and could see her career plans disappearing before her eyes. If she couldn’t get a job, she decided, she would set up on her own. Read more: rukhshana.com/en/how-a-you...
