I’m looking forward to a time when countries around the world aren’t drowning in the news and trickle down result of US Wars, US Tariffs, and US Pedophilia.
We would much rather watch them compete in hot dog eating competitions or laugh at their plastic surgeries, and leave us be. -Sen. Beakly

It is much easier to confess your sins in the dark, than to acknowledge them in the light; to make it up with a god you don't see, than with a man whom you do.. Teach a man to do right, to love justice, to revere truth. So be virtuous, not because a god would reward or punish him hereafter, but because it is right; and as every act brings its own reward or its own punishment, it would best promote his interest by promoting the welfare of society.' Ernestine Rose. Activist and humanist. Humanists uk
For over 130 years, women in the humanist movement have been a radical voice for progress. This #WomensHistoryMonth we celebrate all brave the women who risked everything speaking up for humanism or challenging the influence of religion in society. 🧵
Pizza with figs, prosciutto, Gorgonzola, bocconcini and sage - before cooking.
Pizza with figs, prosciutto, Gorgonzola, bocconcini and sage - after cooking.
The neighbours had to pick their figs early, because of the unseasonal rain. So we were gifted some. Popped down the shops for some prosciutto and Gorgonzola.... and this is the result, courtesy of my partner 😋

Sultan Mohammed. Kayumars' Court. Miniature, detail. "Shahnameh" by Ferdowsi. 1525-1535. Geneva, Collection of Sadruddin Aga Khan.

There's 'mixed marshal arts' on the TV in the pub. Just looks like two drunks fighting in the pub to me.
Sensational 😍
OMG!!!!
For all but the Wiltshire one, you'll need to be lucky with the weather!
Photo of the beach at Currarong NSW
#CoastSnapCurrarong
Black thongs (flip-flops, jandals) on grass. The inner lining has shrunk and the thongs are now curled up and no longer fit me!
Walked back from the beach in my thongs. Left them in the tent porch to dry and they've curled up and died! I never knew they could shrink like this.
Yeah, but we've now got to ride the motorbikes back in the rain... 😞
You'll just have to have lots of cooling blue cheese sauce, that's all!
MotoGP and Superbikes have always been much more exciting!
At the coast and it's humid as hell (I'm a Canberran). If you live here, do you ever get used to it????
An intricate octopus cut from a single piece of paper
Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda hand-cut this life-sized octopus from one sheet of paper. Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.
🧵Spotted On Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A small human (3?) is gifted a plushie lizard toy.
He carefully puts it on the ground.
And waits...
Hmm... no movement.
He gives Plushie Lizard a poke.
Hmm... Still no movement.
Biting his lip, he says solemnly. "Dad, my lizard might be broken." (1)
Alleged sighting
Look after yourself x
Fishers spin-the-wheel meat raffle went fine in the Currarong Bowlo today. But their pizza kitchen's till system went AWOL after they ran out of buzzers.... there were angry words.... and unclaimed pizzas at 8:30pm 😲 🍕
Relax and enjoy the beers 🍻 Fingers crossed things look up for you soon 🤞🍀
