Is “the left are focused on fighting liberals and each other” better?

Kerala has some incredible pork dishes.

An Edward Gorey drawing showing a morose looking black bird on a branch. He (and this feels very much like a he) is pointing downwards with one scraggly wing, and looking straight ahead with debt-filled eyes. His beak is long and sharp, like winter on the Great Plains. He is pointing with his right wing, but this means he is pointing to your left. Your wicked, sinister side. This is no accident. The Bird makes no such mistakes. But he is talking, and the text tells us that he is saying, "Beware of this and that." Honestly, you feel his message in your bones.

Some days I just feel like this Edward Gorey bird gets it.

I mean I was expecting her to like it, tentatively at first, then more, but she dived right in. I think I’ve probably been boring her to tears for a long time.

It went well straight off the bat. Which I wasn’t expecting at all.

Right. Back from settling mum in what we hope is her new home. Hugely comforted and cheered by the professionalism and loving kindness of the staff. I left her sitting down to dinner with three other residents and I swear they were talking about men.

This is just a bunch of werewolves trying desperately to pass.

Van Dyck’s painting of Venetia on her deathbed is one of the most powerful expressions of grief ever rendered. Kenelm wanted her portrayed just as she was. To come across the painting in Dulwich Gallery is to be confronted by the absolute starkness of loss.

THE APOCALYPSE IS SEXY NOW JO

Perhaps if politics could be conducted as ANYTHING other than following the most insane nihilists on 8chan or wherever, this shit might happen less.

oh just a thought if your plan for overthrowing the Iranian government depends on the Iranian public rising up, you likely shouldn't have defunded the American government run news agency that speaks in Farsi.

Crying man: “Feel like shit, just want HUGH GAITSKELL back"

You stopped seeing white dog shit around the same time you stopped seeing proper binmen.

Now, I don't want to jump to conclusions...

A handicap blue and white painted sign on the asphalt of a parking space. The symbols are meant to be a pregnant women and a baby stroller, but it doesn't look like that. It looks like pac man being killed with scissors next to a dancer

Nip across to ithaca if you can. It’s lovely.

Oh yes. If you could get your mitts on some Cypriot loukaniko sausage, that would also be good with this setup

One of my favourite paintings, by one of the most fascinating painters.

I think it’s hardwired into the DNA. That and minced onions.

So true. It’s when you discover that ‘doing your best’ really means something.

True. With a talent for ignoring that, certainly in my case.

It does help.

I probably can (for a bit) but there won't be much left!

Thanks my friend!

Just got to get through tomorrow….

Thanks! 🤞indeed!

Love it in savoury dishes, hate it in sweet ones. It’s the Greek thing, I suppose.
