Is there a way to tell if an account here is genuine? In the past couple of days 2 accounts purporting to be Carlos Alcatraz have followed me on BlueSky.😳

@martinveart.bsky.social your bio on here is just excellent - although that is only to be expected of course 😊

I first saw this when I was 10 years old and have never forgotten how astonishing it is thebowesmuseum.org.uk/the-silver-s...

I love this cat statue from Iran! Please zoom in to see the fine textures and designs on the surface. Ca 1850 - 1900. collections.louvre.fr/en/ark:/5335...

It’s Tom Baker’s birthday. When I worked in a bookshop, he had a Soho launch party in a bar, for loads of booksellers, shift some memoirs, build goodwill. All these Gen X retail schlubs went along to meet actual Doctor Who. He was there, two pints in hand, in full effect. Didn’t disappoint. >>

Disappointing and disheartening to realise that it’s come to this ☹️

Newcomer to this space. Puzzled why I’m seeing so many posts written in German but it’s good to challenge the memory😊
