Can't believe I've only just discovered this photo of David Sylvian.
Black and white photo of David Sylvian from circa summer 2025. He's wearing round sunglasses, a hat and a dark jacket, with a white t-shirt that reads "PROTECT THE DOLLS".

Look, I'm not saying that "David Bowie - The Shel Talmy Recordings" album isn't absolutely marketed to someone like me but I've started seeing people say that it's the *only* period of his career that they like and.. what??

Incredible birthday card I made for my Scottish grandma in which I made sure to diss my English grandma for being English... and couldn't even remember what the flag looked like
Child's drawing in which some grandmas are drawn emblazoned in Scottish and (incorrect) English flags respectively. Text reads: "there's not a better grandma than you" followed by a crossed out English grandma labelled "no way" and a Scottish grandma labelled "yahoo".

Two panel comic. In the first panel, three women stand together. One says, "go for it!" Text reads: beautiful, cool lesbians are watching.

In the second panel, a fourth woman presses her hands to the side of her head and closes her eyes. Text reads: for them, I must succeed.

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica. 
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica. 
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

I really enjoy how the characters just do things that no real person would ever do because that's the best way to advance the plot. Excellent writing.

Never forget that time Sam Neill gave a quote about murder that was so beautifully kabonkers, we all assumed it was a Clickhole bit initially

SAM NEILL

GENERAL JOHN MACARTHUR

If you were to commit a murder,

how would you do it?

It's got to be big! No slipping

something into someones drink, that's just

pathetic. I'd use a steamroller, just leave a

stain on the road. There's probably a couple

of people I'd put under a steamroller,

but I won't say who they are, otherwise

when they see a steamroller coming

their way they'll be on full alert. And

steamrollers don't go very fast...

ANOTHER frustrating take. TERFDOM in the UK didn't succeed cos 'they' were more successful than 'us' at 'reaching the people who matter'. They were more successful by BEING the people who matter. Bigotry positioned with entrenched power vs trans people holding no power.

The British state is rewriting history and dismantling our legal system to protect a genocidal apartheid state.
Today the Court of Appeal upheld the Labour government’s proscription of Palestine Action by saying they aren’t a peaceful civil disobedience group like the suffragettes and that Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest weapons manufacturer, is "a company pursuing a lawful business."

The suffragettes bombed the Chancellor's house, planted a bomb outside the Bank of England, burned down churches and train stations, and smashed up art galleries.

Palestine Action destroyed drones used to kill Palestinians because Elbit's “lawful business” is arming a genocide.

The British state is rewriting history and dismantling our legal system to protect a genocidal apartheid state.
