Colourful graffiti-style paiting of indigenous Americans, with the world "fearless" on the wall of a building in Merchant City Glasgow, with a Pride rainbow painted pavement in front.

Giant pink-hued painting of a young woman holding a cocktail on the wall of a building in Merchant City Glasgow.

The front facia of the Glasgow Museum of Modern Art, with the statue of the Duke of Wellington on his horse in front of it, complete with the obligatory traffic cone on the Duke's head.

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical adventures. These soon multiplied. Significantly.

After much nagging, he has had some postcards printed of this brilliant series:

Genuinely, deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the great Drew Struzan. He was a giant and a genius. You may not have heard his name, but I guarantee you have seen his incredible movie posters. RIP, lovely man.

Absolutely f**king not.

I wonder what excuse he'll give this time for his behaviour?

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

These stolen valour scumbags piss me off more than any other kind of catfish. 🤬

There's no low that's too low for him.

Adie ⚒️ @r2dtoots.bsky.social · 1d

Oh, Diane. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And don't forget the casual misogyny.

Are you replying to that person I blocked last night? I'm guessing they called you a coward, too? Even though you served your (and their) country with courage they, presumably, can only dream of. It sounds like they're a warrior only of the keyboard variety, and best ignored.

Stolen valour wanker catfishing women? Reported.

I have family in Rogers Park, and I'm terrified for them.

I can't be arsed to look. 😄

As Jim Morrison said, people are strange.

It seems that Dawn, who I've been following (and who followed me) from my first day on Bluesky, has blocked me.

I suppose being blocked by someone who finds homophobic fascists lovable isn't much of a loss. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Not sure if she is, but I do know she campaigned alongside his granddaughter, Rachele Mussolini.

I fell down a rabbit hole looking into her when she was elected. Whatever else she is, lovable isn't one of them.

Adie ⚒️ @r2dtoots.bsky.social · 1d

Really? She's a far-right homophobe and transphobe, and has often been described as a fascist.
