The gatehouse at Bolton Percy dates back to the late 15th/early 16th century albeit with later alterations and restoration. Tucked away by the former Crown pub it once led to a courtyard with a medieval barn and rectory buildings. Photos © Gordon Hatton (cc-by-sa/2.0) Geograph

Have a thing i liked so much i took a picture of it. I love this plant… whatever it might be… Japanese art vibes

Lovely red plant popping out of a heather coloured flattish round pot, surrounded by dead leaves and a nice mini-mountain point y rock on some outdoo steps

I find it baffling how little impact the existence of the Undertaker, a literal walking corpse, has had on science and religion

Um... Walmart has alocasia listed for sale and look at these fake ass photos directly in their app. Criminal

A clearly fake image of a green elephant ear plant with many leaves that are so big they tower over the house and are bigger than the SUV in the driveway.

#Etchtober Day 8

Today's prompt: "Meeple Terror Portland," requested by @mikevanderveen.bsky.social. A terrifying image of our war-ravaged city. And you thought the inflatable frog was bad.

Pocket Etch-a-Sketch drawing: A giant meeple steps over a building, while three cops in riot gear look up in horror at the bottom of its descending foot.

I, not a lawyer, read all the way through this, and then down into the comments, and I do believe they all made a case that *this* is a glorious waste of time & real lawyers will be making bank off of litigating against the product.

My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com
p.s. My new book of science cartoons 'Physics for Cats' is out this week. Details at www.tomgauld.com

Panel 1
A figure stands at a lectern
"This image illustrates my theory that, presented with a sufficient quantity of intricate formulae, overcomplicated diagrams and impenetrable acronyms, an audience will agree with almost anything."
The screen is completely packed with such things

Panel 2,3,4,5.
Four audience members say enthusiastically: "My thoughts exactly!", "Hear, hear!", "I quite agree!" and "Excellent point!"

me: fandom is so weird you get super invested in the doings of these other people who don't even care about your opinion most of the time and your entire day is based on whether they did good or feel bad and then you have to feel the same way
