Landlords whining about how lots of people hate them has become a thing just lately. I have 2 tips for landlords who are feeling aggrieved:

1. Dry your eyes on the piles of money that you have made pricing people out of the housing market.

2. Stop being a landlord.

If you see somebody stealing food, no you didn't.

He’s right

Shoplifting is justified for Brits living in poverty, says Green Party's new hard-left leader Zack Polanski - and he says he would do it himself if he was poor

Bought a 3D printer in the Amazon sale thingy*, because I could afford it and I've always wanted one, mainly for printing spare parts for broken toys. Currently printing some replacement limbs for an incomplete Dalek figure. Overjoyed at how simple this is to use!

A chance encounter

illustration inspired by the Scandinavian fairytale, "Bride of the Lindworm". A prince in the form of a lindworm perches on a moss-covered rock and peers curiously at a shepherdess from across a dark pond. The woman reaches toward him. The scene is set in a dark forest.

“I’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick”

Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism.

What do you do with a lot of cheap banners hanging from motorway bridges once you’ve torn them down?

For comparison, ‘MORBIUS’ opened to $17.3M.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

Ah, Zia Yusuf. Proudly flying the Reform colours because he is absolutely certain that those leopards don't even *like* faces.

You're not a nobody. You are fierce. You are strong. You are a survivor. And you are one of my favourite things about BlueSky.

One day, I hope to return to Scotland and get hideously drunk in a pub with you whilst putting the world to rights. ❤️
