I've done My Week: Donald Trump (again) for tomorrow. My first draft genuinely had a joke about Trump thinking there were penguins in Greenland but I took it out because it seemed too stupid.

Gave the Postie a bit of a fright today when I came to the door in a state of undress. To be honest, I’m not really sure what shocked him most; the way I looked, or the fact I knew where he lived.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Why say “coordinated assaults” when “carefully Orca-strated” was right there.
North Atlantic #Orca appear to be expanding from harassing #yachts to going after #commercialvessels

Much copied (the photo I took is still being used by others), plus I don’t have my original tweet from 2013 due to killing off my old Twitter account, but I was the originator of ‘who ya gonna call?’. I even have a badge to prove it!

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

For Italians who liked the looks of the Matra Rancho but not its price-tag, Turin-based coachbuilder Coriasco had the answer: the practical Fiat 127-based Farm, with all those key Rancho styling cues. This (sadly rather colour-faded) brochure is from around 1980. #weirdcarbs

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.
