TIPTOES the Miserable Bastard
A vintage Ladybird book called Tiptoes the Mischievous Kitten. The cover is yellow and has an illustration of a fuzzy black cat with yellow bow tied around its neck and an evil expression, loitering with intent next to a flowerpot on a windowsill.

soup! (pls ignore the other stuff. I’m putting up a cabinet)
A bowl of lentil soup and a roll on a red heart-shaped plate. The table beneath is glass and there’s a drill and various other messy stuff in the background.

Woke up this morning and thought: It is time. Time for Soup
 A big cast iron pot on the hob. It has the ingredients for soup in it (leeks, lentils, carrots) but it isn’t cooked yet so it is pre-soup.

What in the name of Christ could this possibly be about
A facebook group called Archers Appreciation Society. The image is of a man and a woman. The woman is in a hospital bed and is holding a baby. The baby is wearing a flat cap, holding a plucked chicken and a glass bottle of cider. A speech bubble above his head reads ‘Wanna buy a placenta?’

bonus dog and cow pic
A big white cow staring at my fluffy white dog. The dog is pretending she doesn’t see the cow because they’re too big for her to process, so she’s just quietly dissociating

That’s where it will fall flat, because you can’t make statements like this and then fail to understand why people aren’t voting for you. It’s because they have eyes and ears. You cannot spin a huge story about how progressive you are and then completely fail to back that up with anything tangible
"Let's not be embarrassed about that, that's what we are," she said. "We lift children out of poverty, we take the difficult decisions in order to do that. I think at times we've been a bit worried about the reaction rather than just being clear about why we're doing that."

Look at my beautiful new book
My hand holding a book called Hookland Fragments, by David Southwell. The cover is matte and jet black and the lettering is white. There is a white-on-black illustration of a bear on its hind legs, throwing up bones into a starlit sky.

Pic shows a lovely cute wee red panda on his back on the operating table, totally unconscious with his tongue hanging out and paws akimbo. There are wires and tubes everywhere and two medical staff are standing over him. Text says ‘Edinburgh Zoo's red panda Bruce recovers after getting tooth removed.’

Happy Gorbals Vampire Day (that I’ve just made up) to all who celebrate 🦇
A poster for the Citizens Theatre, Glasgow. There’s a comic book-style illustration of a group of children in 1950s-style school uniforms, with shorts. They’re scowling, facing outwards, defensively, and are holding sharpened sticks. Behind them is a moonlit church.

The car one actually looks familiar! Not paying £26.95 to find out, though, unfortunately

When I was wee I got a bunch of books from my older cousin and one of them was called the Joe annual. There was a story in it called ‘The Snow Spook’ that scared me senseless and I’m still scared thinking about it now
Ebay listing for a Joe annual. The cover is pink and white and has an illustration of people in a line of cars and lorries. Text says ‘The Joe Annual 1969 Alison Prince Joan Hickson BBC TV series’

More AI slop that’s also pretty stinky, in my view
Facebook post from behatted fool George Galloway. He’s posted an AI image of Ed Sheeran sitting on the ground, busking, with an open guitar case in front of him. The case has a cardboard sign that says ‘please give generously’. Ed Sheeran’s hair is red and has sidelocks in the style often worn by Orthodox Jewish men.

Old tweet from a BBC person in 2016. Pic is of Tom Arthur MSP, a youngish white guy with brown hair and an oddly short tie. Tweet says:

The National Autistic Society have just definitively stated that autism is genetic. Glad to hear this but I’m not delighted by the forces at work that meant this urgently had to be clarified.
Facebook post: 

National Autistic Society Scotland
We can now say definitively that autism is genetic.
For a long time, we have only been able to say that this was likely, but now we have looked at all the evidence and the answer is clear: autism is genetic.
autism-matters

Purple graphic with text reads:
Autism is genetic.
You're born autistic and you're autistic for life.
Most people are autistic because of genes they got from their parents.
