Cultural omnivore. Located outside the bourgeois hive mind. The Arts are depictions of the soul which mechanics, mathematics or any empirical measure fails to gauge. Besides that edge, I'm convinced that the human epic pivots on right and wrong.
I've a thing about doorways. Shall add yours to my hoard on file. Beautiful workmanship!
This post reminded me of a photo I took of a mix of weeds and vines that grew naturally on the side of a house. All a composition needs is a plain background and decent light of course. #NaturePhotography #FlowerPhotography

I don't understand why some people hate pigeons. They're great at enlivening in urban spaces. The lower panel shows Woody the wood pigeon in our garden. He is practically a pet.
There's something about the #Gothic don't you think?#Architecture
Eh?? This was in a public WC right next to the toilet. Why would an alarm kick off in the first place?? Double why if it can be stopped!?😕
Ely Cathedral nestles in and rises from the supple contours of the English countryside. It is a thing of wonder (my words and my awe) which took 100 years to build. #Architecture #NaturePhotography
@visuallywired.bsky.social I always miss #Caturday. Looks like this weekend will be no different. Phoebe had to learn that our affection extends to garden visitors. This wood pigeon is practically a pet.
This is a genuine word for word transcript of a recent Trump monologue. Once again I need a laugh and cry combined emoji...and for Trump's karma to finish the job!!! As you can see, the deconstruction has already started.
Look at Trump's abuse of the poor and see exactly how Farage's Reform would proceed! Behold how Trump uses his position to enrich himself, his penchant for Putin and his train crash economy exploding the 'trickle down' myth, and realise that birds (even vultures) of a feather flock together.
Since Rump threw his considerable weight onto the world cup pitch, one wonders about the end game. Imagine: Someone else wins. Rump calls up the Jan6 thugs to run riot. Yells of 'The games were rigged' ring out. The loudest barking wins the argument. Fifa gives Rump another peace prize.😕
I pride myself on a good breadth of vocabulary. Still I had to look up 'odium', here used against bluesky. In fact it perfectly describes avid X users and also the dominant vibe of the Torygraph gutter press. ps we're not a version of the bot-riddled X twitter X! Format, maybe but with integrity.
They made America great again. Great at unintended particulars, you decide. The following is by Oliver Kornetzke. The reality is that the US is no longer a good country let alone great. That's what happens when the power of money-worship and the indulgence of consumerism outpaces soul values.
The leaders of the UK's 2 biggest right wing parties were due at a London global warming denying, £$ over science jamboree. Funded by Trump donors and fossil fuel vested interests, the intended summit on 'non' #ClimateChange- related rising temperatures, was cancelled bc of the searing heat! 😅😞
A bit of Friday trivia for you: One of the richest men (of yore) was asked a question. Judging by the obsessive greed we witness, the answer is as true for squillionaires today. The question was - 'how much money is enough'?? The answer - 'always a little more'! #TaxTheRichSaveTheWorld
Rump is on his way out. Now to expose the ambitious sycophants behind the throne, those who fed his warped ego, legitimised his foul deeds, turned blind eyes to his thievery, nepotism and paedo sins and have designs on the crown.
Great pic but please don't join those on social media I call the titi girls!
One bullet point from the bottom spells the future of any Authoritarian, Autocratic or Dictatorial govt. Question - if the hard Reich Republicans continue Rump's legacy, how long before dissenters are imprisoned and murdered just like in Iran, Russia and China? Bc that's what happens 100% of t time!
I hope that at least savvy US bluesky users realize that 1 - t Maga liars are manipulating their own base by scaremongering about UK and 2 - that their megalomaniacal intent is to sow division and discord in Europe so as to destroy t democracy they detest and 3 - As Putin, they aim to destroy t EU.
My parents' vibe but still pretty cool. Thanks for lending a soundtrack to my bluesky scrolling!
Let's get 1 thing straight! Musk,Vance & Thiel are fascists. When #DementiaDon is gone, worse will follow unless a push-back crushes pathological racism, misogyny, lies & t megalomaniacal agenda of t Nazi network. Women are 50% of humanity. Must rally while we have the vote bc w/o us, all is lost!
@visuallywired.bsky.social No thank you. I am neuro diverse enough.
