Feeling a bit cough and sneezy today which for some reason my brain is telling me is because it's not light enough. Don't know where it got this idea from. Real or a brain short-circuit?

I don’t think Trump and his people are capable of engineering β€œdistractions,” I think the mind-numbing chaos we see every day is straightforwardly the result of giving the dumbest, cruelest, most corrupt, most selfish people of a generation near-unmitigated power

My hairdresser and friend opened her business last week. Tonight it burned to the ground. This is devastating.

I’ve set up a fundraiser. If you haven’t done anything for international women’s day yet, here’s a chance to support a women-run business in need: www.paypal.com/pools/c/9nhn...

Sad news for the voters of Clacton who were hoping Farage would be able to bend the POTUS’ ear about fortnightly bin collections.

Green sea crashing onto a grey rock (granite?) groyne. One side of it is shingle, the other more sea. Low clouds in the sky.

Oh yes I appreciate that journalists need to be paid; I’m thinking more of ad-farm type news sites which are more likely than not written by GenAI.

As I've said before, NOBODY WINS when an alleged news site uses these ad-farm tactics. Users lose, advertisers lose (as people tricked into clicking on an ad are going to develop antipathy towards the product), and the owners of the site lose as people are going to stop visiting.

I still get astomnished by the brazen bare-faced cheek of websites which make themselves unusable with ads trying to shame users with a "We see you're using an ad blocker" pop-up.

The phrase "Sharp-dressed Skeleton" popped into my head. Which basically just means a person just after they've had a bath or shower.

Daylight saving has already started in the US which means they're catching up with us. New York's already at 10.25am, you can almost see it in the rear view mirror. Step on it!

It's hard to believe Tony Blair has absolutely no idea how toxic his opinion is. Maximum self-delusion.

Window of a second hand store in St Leopards with a guitar next to a music stand with the music for a song called β€œDoes she love me (yes or no)” by Art Noel & Don Pelosi with very 1930s artwork. There is a small China ornament of possibly a pig in front of the window outside the shop.

I don't know why but I have recently started to notice people's eyeballs in TV dramas. Specificially where they're looking when there's a close up. They seem to dart about all over the place. It's most distracting.

Ginger cat sitting on a wooden table back to use but looking over his shoulder at camera. He is next to an old fashioned phone. In front of him is a sash window opened a crack, most of which is covered by a green Venetian blind.
