It was layer upon layer of jokes. Reminded me of the Naked Gun in a way. Loved it

I commissioned that baby. Very proud of it. @davelambert84.bsky.social didn’t you direct it?

I’m on page 418. It’s pretty special

Don’t know whether any of the little group following me have read #TheBookThief by Markus Zusak

A neighbour gave it to me

I’d been going through Japanese authors - Murakami, Ishiguro, Kawaguchi - and this
broke the pattern. Ten pages a night. It’s extraordinary

Watched #Wicked

Such a brilliant, funny, inventive film

Didn’t expect it to be so emotional

Monday night and the cinema in Solihull was packed

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande are both incredible

Heard a nice piece today

Bluebird by Alexis Ffrench (two Fs)

Bit similar to the theme tune from Transparent

In the spirit of nice Bluesky sharing, and I imagine people know this but even if one person hears it for the first time it’s a win - Shostakovich 2nd piano concerto second movement.

Half way through #Yellowstone season 1.

Reminds me of a horse riding holiday I took on my own with my two sons, then 15 and 13 in Colorado. All big vistas, eagles and humming birds.

Did white water rafting. In Denver got upgraded to the hotel penthouse that had two kitchens and a grand piano

@dieworkwear.bsky.social is one of the reasons I’m on social media. Love his posts

derek guy @dieworkwear.bsky.social · Nov 24

The Washington Post reports that Michael Anton and Sebastian Gorka had a falling out over who should receive credit for writing Trump's speeches. This is incorrect. In this thread, I will tell you the real reason why Anton dislikes Gorka. 🧵

Tweet says: Last year, Anton wrote about his strained relationship with Gorka, which in Anton’s account stemmed from Gorka irritating senior White House staff by exaggerating his own role in writing a speech Trump delivered in his first term. Anton said he was charged with clarifying to the media that Gorka did not draft the speech, an act that culminated in Gorka calling Anton a “coward” and scolding him in a Fox News green room, according to his account.

Anton did not immediately respond to a request for comment, while Gorka told The Post: “I don’t comment to the fake failing news."

Anton expected to be in contention for other administration jobs

I love painting so much.

It's my only pleasure.

That and upsetting my local art society.

A bad painting of a person, possibly a woman, wearing a yellow sweater, with dark brown hair and piercing eyes (the woman, not the sweater).

Still one of the best cats I've ever painted.

A delightful and sweet painting of a black cat.

No popularity contest, no magic wish. Just two clouds ofloneliness converging in a clap of thunderlight,
a starlit dream to cradle us till next winter.
