The Guardian's cartoon today. Particularly like the parts left over... #Starmer #Burnham

I-Keir kit to make a Prime Minister showing an Andy Burnham mannequin with a heart and a spine next to him with a box of parts and a vo8ce off saying "These parts were left over from last time!"
To bottom right is a pair of hands holding an instruction leaflet with a numbered figure of Keir Starmer headed I-Keir Assembly Instructions.

My bookshelf, a mix of paperback and hardcover which annoyingly don'talign perfectly:

I went to an exhibition of her work in Nottingham a few years ago. It was really moving and blew me away.

We must reclaim our institutions from the Ornithology fanatics before it's too late

There's always a quote... #SuellaBraverman #ReformUK

Daily Mail headline over a picture of Nigel Farage, dated 12 July 2025. It says:

Reform warns it wouldn't take Liz Truss or Suella Braverman if they decided to leave the Tories amid concerns they would damage the party’s image".

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention saying it like it is... #Trump #ICE #Fascism #USPolitics

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents murdered 37-year-old U.S. citizen Alex Pretti today in Minneapolis. This is the third U.S. citizen ICE has killed this year.

ICE and Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) are loyal agents of Nazis and white supremacists within the Republican Party. They are behaving as enemies both of the Constitution and of the American people and they must be treated as such.

The United States is at a crossroads: Either the American people are able to wrest power from the current fascist leaders or those leaders will continue to radicalize, using violence and terror to dismantle democracy and commit even greater mass atrocities.

History is clear about this.

The American people are currently fighting alone in their battle for freedom and liberty. The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention admires their courage and expresses solidarity.

We urge the U.S.’s powerful institutions, including the National Guard and the military, to uphold their Constitutional oath and come to the aid of the people immediately

Saying the quiet part out loud.... #AI #Microsoft

PCGamer headline: "Microsoft CEO warns that we must 'do something useful' with AI or they'll lose 'social permission' to burn electricity on it"

Subhed: "Workers should learn AI skills and companies should use it because it's a 'cognitive amplifier,' claims Satya Nadella."

A Green Party colleague just shared this graphic from Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. It sums up Israel's genocide in Gaza in appalling and concise detail. #Israel #Gaza #Genocide

Graphic of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, densely populated with facts, figures and illustrations of deaths, injuries and effects.

In Brighton, England. #Palestine

Huge black and white billboard shows two prisons with watchtowers, one with a union flag and the other with an Israeli flag. Text reads:

Merry Catmas from Mr Copper, who would like to inform you that his Christmas Dinner ISNT THERE! #CatsOfBluesky #Catmas #MerryChristmas

Ooh, great pressie! I can scrub it off my wishlist.

It's pouring with rain outside this #Caturday (Mr Copper has been chanting obscenities through the catflap all morning) so I have actually written all my Christmas cards (yes, I know!) He's now given up and retired gracelessly to the sofa. #Catmas

Ginger and white tabby cat curled up grumpily on a white fleecy blanket.

Mr Copper was rescued from a life on the streets too. He says Hi, Jim.

Mr Copper appears to be Jim's alter ego, so also the best cat ever.

Another one using pheasant feathers and link to exhibition here: www.lakesidearts.org.uk/exhibition/k...

Contorted swirls of interlocking, knotted, snakelike figure all clothed in pheasant feathers in various shades of buff to brown. It is on a black plinth under a Victorian style glass dome

I went to an exhibition by the sculptor Kate MccGwire at Lakeside Arts in Nottingham. She uses ethically sourced feathers to make the most amazing artwork. This is using pheasant feathers. My photo doesn't do it justice.

Large rectangular swirling artwork in tones of rust, cream and pink, using different pheasant feathers.

He went out in the gale force wind for a wee, hurled himself back in through the catflap screaming obscenities, and is now chuntering away to himself on the sofa. He is not impressed by #StormAmy. #Caturday

Mr Copper agrees. He has taken to swearing at the radio.

No other media will say this. #Israel #Genocide #Starmer #UKPolitics

I'll never forgive her for helping Ruth Smeeth to stitch up Marc Wadsworth. Here they are with Luciana Berger cosplaying the 3 witches from Macbeth.
