Wonderful to see the word 'yampy' in use. Not heard it for a while.

Here are my top 10 dog sneezes!

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Alright. I see I have a bunch of new followers. Not sure why, but welcome! I'm an engineer, writer and editor. Mostly in that order. I've written 3 books - 1 novel and 2 short story collections. Check them out! I post random shit about writing, science, scuba diving, and other assorted nonsenses.

Happy one year anniversary to this banger tweet that got so ridiculously blown out of proportion that it got us 70k wishlists in like a day

Staff thing this afternoon. Bets on how quickly the military precision of the agenda fails.

Morning sky

Morning The Bluesky. Sorry, false alarm. It's actually The Raptor, not The Rapture. Bit of crossed wires cock up there. Still, be careful with the giant birds of prey out there this morning.

guys we finally have an idea for Halloween costume for Plaguey D

Sometimes I wonder what the point of it all is.

Hamble has come to haunt your dreams tonight. #Playschool

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Monday evening Midsomer Murders with a young Orlando Bloom dying to a pitchfork. It's funny to gear Barnaby's exasperation as ge stumbles across another Midsomer village murder.

It's the first day of astronomical autumn. 🍂 The apple tree. Ink on Saunders Waterford HP. A piece I did back in 2014 as a sample for Crabtree & Evelyn on an apple wassail theme. In the event, C&E decided on a different direction and I didn't get the gig (boo). Still, I got an artwork out of it.

I got this with a small rug I ordered to use when fettling guitars.

A fourth purple dachshund has been found. I'm now not even sure it's not me doing it at this point.

Hugely looking forward to performing in this beautiful wonderland of a bookshop in CHESTER next Sunday Robinince.com

Does anyone have a good recipe for pickling gherkins? First time growing and never pickled anything before (though know about sterilising etc as have made jam). Thank you!

In the relatively undisturbed countryside outside Paris, Henri Biva depicts the river in the early morning, focusing on strong light effects and foliage detail (Morning at Villeneuve l’Etang: From Waters Edge, 1905)

If you are on LinkedIn, there is a new setting you might want to be aware of.

That is just annoying. That contributed nothing to the conversation and was just a pointless vocalization to make the humans comfortable.
