French onion ramen, an absurdly rude recipe from Tim Anderson's Vegan JapanEasy. We swapped out spinach, cabbage and bamboo shoots for what we had to hand - rocket, green beans and carrot. Also kept in the mushrooms from making the dashi. Marvellous with a glass of red. #WhatVegansEat

The power of visualisation. What jumped out at me was that almost all of these cities are in the same band of latitude - only London and Lagos are outliers. Which immediately suggest climate factors underlying cities being able to support large numbers of people. 📊

Hookland otters (Lutra Lutra Hooklandii) love to feast on white water lilies and enjoy the psychotropic properties of the plants. If you are lucky you may spot an otter chewing on the white flowers, dreaming and floating in the Field of Prophecy, in the waters of the Restal Wastesn 🤍🐾🌀

My latest design - the Three Hares Tam, based on a window in Paderborn cathedral. Pattern is on Ravelry if anyone fancies it.🧶 #knitting #dreihasenfenster #threehares #hares #shareyourknits #knittersofbluesky www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

In the cathedral in Paderborn, Germany, there is a window known as the Dreihasenfenster (three hares window). It is cunningly designed so that the hares each have two ears, but there are only three ears in total.

As soon as I saw the window I knew that one day I’d turn that motif into a tam. Friends… that day has come. Welcome to the Three Hares Tam pattern!

Photo shows the crown of the tam (beret) with the three hares pattern.

Giving my pencils a workout. Positions of songs at the top of Dutch Radio 2's Top 2000 over time. 📊 Colours are related to release date: purples 60s, black/blues 70s, oranges/reds newer. Also the bright orange one just happens to be the only Dutch language song here.

A hand drawn line graph plotting positions of the following songs in the Top 2000: Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California, Child in Time, Stairway to Heaven, Paradise by the Dashboard Light, Imagine, A Whiter Shade of Pale, Fix You, Roller Coaster, Piano Man, Avond. These eleven songs make up almost all of the top 5 positions over the 26 editions of the Top 2000 to date. Bohemian Rhapsody was #1 all but 5 times.
