A great trail #run tonight, with some great people happy global running day everyone

Garmin just informed me that it's global #running day, it's also #trailrun Wednesday, so that's a happy coincidence, and I do enjoy collecting the badges I also discovered that my trail runs were buggering around with my V02 max scoring, because I wasn't using the trail run option...

Know your #gay (British) History David Shenton, Cartoonist, Knitter, Artist. Davis has been a political and social cartoonist since the 70's, often touching on gay life and politics though the eyes of Stanley. I first came across his work in the Gay News and The Pink Paper back in the late 80s.

I had planned to fag it up every day in June, but when it came to it I couldn't be bothered. Then I saw these pieces that I made a few years ago in my work room, they've been there so long that I forget about them. Happy #pride from this old #gay

It's the 1st of June, so that means it's time to drag out my favourite video. Happy #Pride month to those that celebrate

Welcome to the Enshittocene, AI slop is already ruining what was the pitiful remains of the internet, after algorithms told us what to read and think, then fascist bots dominate posts and bots comment in reply.

#Parkrun Happy with my time, I should have slowed my pace in the first km, but felt good, so I let my body set the pace, plus I need to get in more high intensity aerobic runs. Post turnaround vert wasn't as tough as usual, but the old hips were feeling it a bit more, still average pace is good.

Dear Mr de Worde I found a humourously shaped vegetable in my fingerling potatoes, I hope this submission is suitable for the Ankh Morpork Times. Yours Mr Wintler

#Runsday Wednesday, a new (to me) trail in Victoria Park, #truro. #rushsky #run

I love this so much #Dogs are the best people

Ugh Helen, you are the worst. Your date (hate that word) slags off your friend, who cares enough about you to get his husband to eat at the next table to rescue you if needed, and laugh and you ignore it because why? You couldn't say, "oh that's my friend, my cousins husband" Vile #TheArchers

I see that someone discovered what I was doing with my action men in the early 80's

Rhododendron canadense, aka Canada rosebay My absolute favourite sign of spring

No crown? "it wasn’t the wearing of the hats that counted so much as having one to wear. Every trade, every craft had its hat. That’s why kings had hats. Take the crown off a king and all you had was someone good at having a weak chin and waving to people. Hats had power. Hats were important.

Monday evening #running was a change up from our usual trail and only about 4km from my home, the group wanted to walk today after their weekend relay run (Cabot Trail relay), so I ran to the trail from home, walked and chatted with my group, and then ran home. Local wildlife put on a good show too

Media literacy is incredibly important TL/DR Sheeran was once homeless, wants a fence and gate on his house to stop the paparazzi harassing him and his neighbours, the media who benefit from paparazzi intrusion report on it as him being a hypocrite and wanting an "Anti-homeless" fence.

Good old Nova Scotia weather today for #Parkrun, cold and damp to start, warm and Blackfly'y at the end. (note Blackfly on m'nose and neck). New #Goodr sunnies were awesome, didn't bounce or slip. Great time too. 10s faster than last week, so well on my way to reclaiming my 26m pr, which is nice.

She's been "sat" like this for a few minutes now

Sacha Coward has it right @sachacoward.bsky.social I'm old enough to remember all the arguments against gay rights and marriage equality
