I've said it before and I'll say it again. If you go to a gig and talk through any song you should be in The Hague, terrible people.

Jaime Hernandez’s quite beautiful cover to 1984’s Love & Rockets #5, with the colour scheme used for the later second printing.

This might be the absolute greatest reply we have ever received. Thank you, Cookie Monster 📕🍪💙

I was 11/12 when this album came out or I was given it (sorry @ipswichjon.bsky.social & @perlalaloca.bsky.social ) - it still means so fucking much to me. It gave me a moral compass that hasn’t wavered since open.spotify.com/track/7HXkny...

Second walk of the day was along the River Tees to see High Force and Low Force #Waterfalls followed by a little trot to check my eyesight at Barnard Castle.

These ones left

Newark Castle, #Newark #Nottinghamshire #Reflections #Cloudscape #Bluesky

Two lovely walks today, first a different route and a climb up to St John's Tower through Bradgate Park and then along the River Soar.

Remains of the Knights Templar settlement and a WWII bunker on my walk around Temple Bruer.

Morning walk around #Rhodes Old Town.

Sunrise over #Rhodes

Lovely walk to the southern most point and Prasonisi #Lighthouse that sadly looks battered and uncared for.

A moment to admire headscarves in the life and work of Shirley Hughes. First image is from Dogger; second and third are photos of her in the mid 60’s. We think of Shirley as immensely stylish in later life, in her pink coat and wonderful hats, but how about as a young mum herself? You can decide!

A #pharology walk this morning. First up, New Brighton #Lighthouse

Lovely walk around Torside, Vale House and Bottoms Reservoir on the #PeakDistrict on my way to Chester.

Had a mooch in the just-ploughed field next door, and found this lovely pie crust edged piece from a late 17th-early 18th century large flat slipware plate, which joins treasures of similar date found in the garden. Love those trailed, combed patterns. #archaeology #fieldwalking #mudlarking #pottery

Threatening to impeach judges who check your power is proof you need judges checking your power.

The coastal ruins of Felin Gafnan mill, Porth y Pistyll, north Anglesey/Ynys Môn at sunset tonight - a really special place

It's #WomensHistoryMonth 🎉 As usual, I'll be sharing ordinary women's stories. I like writing about these women. They didn't do anything the world would deem spectacular. They were just everyday people going about their lives. Surviving the way they knew best. #History

Celebrate International Women's Day by interrupting men with your unsolicited opinions and taking credit for their work. If they get upset about it, be sure to tell them that they sound hysterical and should smile more.

It's #InternationalWomensDay! The forensic scientist Frances Glessner Lee created real crime scene dioramas to train homicide investigators in the 1940s/50s. She was troubled that patrolmen and detectives rarely knew how to secure a scene, or identify key evidence in a forensic investigation.

Lovely morning walk along the coast from #Sheringham to visit the #Lighthouse at #Cromer

Just over a year ago the Russian opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, died in prison in Russia. We wrote and demoed this song in the last few days and dedicate it to his memory and his cause. Neil and Chris x #PetText #navalny #freerussia #slavaukraini

Frosty #morning walk.

#SpotTheScammer @newman13.bsky.social, exclusively following women, word salad bio. I recognise the man in the bio pics, but can't trace him, sadly.

#SpotTheScammer @regina1985.bsky.social, using a pic of a woman claiming to be a prostitute; this account appears to be posting AI generated comments. R & B

#SpotTheScammer @africana55.bsky.social "Joe" is replying to posts with irrelevant comments, stating he's lost everything. This is an attempt to get people to feel sorry for him and a precursor to asking for money. Don't fall for it. R & B

#SpotTheScammer @ecarilin5.bsky.social bio: WELCOME TO EXCELSIOR CONFIDENTIAL SERVICES Something very wrong with this account. None of the links in the Linktree work apart from Telegram and email. I recommend blocking.

My god look at that

Happy #SixOnSaturday sky-folk, six pics from in and around my garden this windy wintery week (see alt text for details). 🌱📷 #Gardening

#SpotTheScammer @sharonjohnson099.bsky.social "Alex S John" claims to be a God fearing 🚩 and honest 🚩 man in the US military 🚩. Name in the handle is "Sharon Johnson", which is a head-scratcher. Pics are stolen and in prolific use by romance scammers. www.fake-scam.info/index.php?ac...
