I accidentally pressed something on my phone keyboard and it's just called me a wanker.

Text white on grey says "Enable one handed mode?

One handed mode shrinks down your keyboard to let you type with one hand"

Because everything always needs hype, even a world cup semi final. In case you're wondering why this is bigger than 2018; or 1990 it's because if the political back story with Argentina, which we simply don't have with Croatia or.... Germany.

Headline, white on black reads "England's biggest match since 1966 as Three Lions close in on immortality" below which is a photo of about seven England footballers in their white outfits, celebrating

a cover for the book 'Explorers of the New Century' by Magnus Mills. It's white, with a small blue boat, the author's name in sort of pale brown and the book title in the same blue as the boat.

Frankly that's just rude.

Imagine getting nagged by your shitty OS to backup stuff when it's basically a marketing scam. What do you say to this, windows?

Infantino is going to keep expanding the world cup until Italy qualify.

A headline, white on black reads "Infantino opens door to 64 team world cup".

There's a photo of infantino, a hairless rat faced human in a dark suit with his arms out. He looks a bit like if Ricky Gervais has serious radiation sickness.

It's half fucking four in the morning.

Here's a little stone dinosaur that my friend got me from Devon. To be friends with my Swanage seal

The person who chose this photo knew what they were doing.

A photo of Erling Haarland, a very white blonde man in a pale blue top is stood next to Jordan Pickford, a white ginger man in orange. They're both looking down at something. Presumably, as the headline to the right is, "will Haaland edge Pickford again?" that they're looking down at Pickford's penis.

I can't possibly understand what went awry with Brazil's attacking tactics today. Also I love that I can't screenshot media players any more, in case I pirate something frame by frame.

A photograph of a TV screen showing a football pitch. One Brazilian is standing about doing nothing near the side of the pitch. One Brazilian (Vini Jr) is driving with the ball towards goal. There are seven Norwegians in red, not including the goalkeeper, between Vini and goal.

Fucking hell, I hadn't gotten round to removing Firefox off my phone. Until now. Fuck your Ai wank,Mozilla.

Firefox offering me an Ai summary, quite possibly even accidentally.

Excuse the photos taken through glass in JPEG. Needs must.

a goldfinch, small in the centre right of the frame, wings wide and splayed, is taking off to the right, from leafy green branches. The background is blurred greens and red brick

Breakfast and lunch sorted.

It's not even November. But here it is again. Guy Fawkes wanted to kill the Protestant monarch so there could be a Catholic monarch. He was a bootlicker and a papist as opposed to just a bootlicker. He wasn't right about anything. Except maybe the hat. That's quite dashing.

Guy "Guido" Fawkes in a decidedly upstairs looking stone room with parliament about a mile away through the open door.

He's a white man with long brown curly hair, a pointy beard and moustache combination and a particularly bold pink jerking and broad brimmed pointy hat combination, topped with white gloves and lace collar and a crimson cape.

He's doing something suspicious with a barrel

In much less curmudgeonly news, I just heard the word fisticuffs for the first time in a decade and it made me think of patenting an accessory. Obviously it would need to be adjustable.

Embracing my ageing years, I bought half moon glasses. Quiet in the library.

Especially your tower fans. Do not click the picture if you're sensitive to mucky fans.

Horizontally a very dusty tower fan is lying down with the side taken off. Which is above to the right. In the top left is a magnetic tray with chilli peppers in.

At the bottom, accidentally are my bare toes. Sorry about that.

In times of strife and division, it's not where your ancestors are from or what you look like that's important, if you can accept the beans on toast, you're English in my eyes (derogatory).

Honestly, fine. Easy to install (assuming you know how to change your boot order in BIOS), was quick, is pretty intuitive. It's installed on hardware old enough that the OS isn't delighted, so I tested it with an old game, on Steam, with an extra launcher. Works great.

We don’t usually see each other’s headers. Here’s mine

A sad but beautiful looking face of a statue on a grave, the sunlight catching its face in a way that emphasises the sad eyes. Half the background is pale blue, half is blurry trees.

They do look very different to the ones I saw, presumably American design. I think many were Kevin Long.

A black and white ink drawing of a big robot mech thing. It's good big flared legs and popeye arms and a lot less pointy and curved bits than the Japanese ones above

Fascinating flower behaviour. They do this every day. Full bloom at 10am and shut up tight by 2pm.

The view out of a window of a paved patio and a patch of wild garden. Some yellow flowers are tall and bright.

Big day for chemtrails. Best to stay indoors.

The sun is seeing over the rooftops lighting up crisscrossing vapour trails from aircraft into gold against a pale blue sky

I foolishly went out Monday. For an hour. And I went very wonky.

Tony Blair coming in to give a rare intervention on how he thinks the UK should be run.

on the left is a green themed painting of a skeleton in armour and a very long pointy crown, ragged armour and lots of ethereal green whooshing bits. On the right, a photo of a warhammer miniature of a grinning skeleton in a ridiculous tiered headdress, massive shouldered purple gown carrying a skull topped staff made of skulls.

Both are Nagash.

Americans are failing to understand the word secret, I fear.

Really? Is that a special Sunday thing? Seems like there's no parliament, it's nice weather for a walk to the park, and there's potential football excitement. Lots of chemtrails though...

I don't know how happy you are with your bank. But my mutual building society has just given me money again.
