A horse-drawn carriage comes unexpectedly towards me on a Dartmoor bridleway.
FFS, lost my concentration on a walk again and mistakenly took the path that said "1825" instead of the one that said "2025".

South-west Scotland. Who'er. Skilled at the art of falling apart. Running up that hill. Left my demons at the door. Memories are uncertain friends. Knock me down with a feather...

I'm really rather obsessed with Henry Moore's WW2 artwork of Londoners sheltering in Tube stations during the Blitz.

King Charles III should lead our troops into battle against the Russians. He has a smashing uniform and lots and lots of experience. I'm sure the soldiers would be delighted to be led by a man with as many medals as he has.
The "Warrior Mounds", situated in a field between The Ridgeway and Churn Hill (South of Blewbury). These are part of a wider, ancient, and rich archaeological landscape of the Berkshire Downs. This was taken today, picture aligned with the field itself.
This is really funππππ
It's 1970, and those filthbuckets over at Blue Peter are still enjoying the swinging sixties. Peter has poof fun and Val jerks around.
No more moving on. These people need to pay for what they did. If not here then send them to another country to judge them and to imprison them. We need discipline again. Especially for the pathologically corrupt.

The reason the middle-class media has not reported Hannah Spencer being attacked by right-wing transphobes is that it needs to preserve the nice, coffeee-round-the-kitchen-table, middle-class view of transphobia, not the thuggish fascist reality.

If youβre roughly my age, itβs wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
This is Steve, youtube channel (edge of the matrix) Steve was part of the group of mostly men who chased Hannah Spenser yesterday. You can see in the footage that as he runs up behind Hannah Spencer he pushes his way in front of her and for a split second he stops and by doing so, stops Hannah Spencer in her tracks. He got within a foot of her. This was a clear case of Intimidation! This guy was the ringleader and needs to be challenged on this. We want his full name and address and if possible, his workplace, if he works, unlikely as spends most of his time as a transphobic billboard. If you see him on the street, hold him to account.
This is one of the anti-trans cultist men who harrassed Hannah Spenser yesterday. Thanks to UK 161 news
The concept of Joanna Cherry's memoir having an impact on the Scottish election.........her deluluism is unparalleled.

Relieved that no serious injuries have been reported after the devastating fire in Glasgow.
My thanks to the emergency services and partners for their hard work overnight.
We will support Glasgowβs recovery and work to get the city centre up and running as quickly as possible.
The Tories oversaw the degradation of UK gas storage capacity - 2010 to 2017.
Thatcher privatised the gas and oil industry - 1982 to 1986.
Thatcher closed the collieries - 1986 to 1991.
This woman is an idiot - 1960 to 2026
CHILDREN OF THE STONES (1977): ITV's landmark folk horror serial for children, and it's every bit as mature, dense, and scary as anything for adults. Happy day!
On the left: a black and white photo of protesters burning a US flag. On the right: text that reads βI was a prisoner in Iran. Iβve seen the US meddle in the region for decades. Washingtonβs real aim in the Middle East is control, not liberation.β
In 1953, the CIA overthrew Iranβs democratically elected prime minister to protect Western oil interests. Over 70 years later, those same power dynamics continue to shape the Middle East. https://thewalrus.ca/i-was-a-prisoner-in-iran-ive-seen-the-us-meddle-in-the-region-for-decades/

In January 871, on a cold day like below, it is entirely possible that a huge Danish army surged up this track or valley to be met by two enormous West Saxon armies. The valley would have turned red. Kingstanding Hill, South Oxfordshire.
The Llanelli & Mynydd Mawr Railway is a fascinating piece of Welsh history. From an 1802 horse-drawn tramway to a vital coal artery, they now do vital work preserving the industrial & diesel side of our rail heritage. Every generation is worth saving! π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώπ

Night aerial shot of the aftermath of the fire showing a destroyed historic building that immediately abuts the large Glasgow Central station (behind), that appears to have been spared.
This photo clearly shows both how devastating the fire was, and how close to total disaster it was for Glasgow Central station.
