Such beautiful late summer weather in London. Absolutely GIGANTIC lobster roll and Pumpkinhead cravings rn

On a green lawn, a big tree is in the centre, with a sizeable trunk and reaching branches with green foliage. A wooden bench is just too one side. Grass as far as the eye can see, and more trees at the borders.

The Leaser Dead had some full on belly laugh moments, often in fraught action scenes, which made it a distracting bedtime read.

Morning. 🖼️ Cormorant, Ohara Koson.

The image is a Japanese woodblock print titled "Red Mask Cormorant on Rock" by Ohara Koson (1877-1945), a prominent artist of the shin-hanga movement. The artwork features a large, dark-feathered cormorant standing on a rocky outcrop, with its wings partially spread, possibly in the act of drying them or preparing for flight. The bird is rendered with detailed plumage and a distinctive long, pointed yellow beak. Waves break against the rocks it stands upon. In the background there are birds in flight in the distance.

People did the same thing with activities as well, like 'I'm having a better meal/day/walk than you' Kind of disgusting that people can't find joy or satisfaction in anything *unless* they shit on others at the same time.

We saw #Weapons last weekend. Apart from seeing the trailer at the cinema last month I deliberately saw/read nothing about this film. Loved it. Especially the narrative structure. Scary and funny. #horror

Indeed. I had a checklist of 10 items after my first marriage ended and having read LOTR was one of those items.

Hey, USA, here’s the leader of Health and Human Services, allowing parasitic lampreys to bite his arms, presumably to let the bad humours out and make him healthier than a normal human. We’ll all soon be issued personal lampreys instead of health care. www.dailymail.co.uk

It's absolutely horrible weather. I was so happy to get a single grey, cooler, damp day for my birthday a week back. #blessed I keep looking at the forecast hoping it will just STOP being hot.

Emma Victory @emmavictory.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

It didn't feel long to me. Also, the performances are all so good that you don't even really notice that at the time. It could feel like different bits of stories... But I personally didn't have a problem with that. I went in with low expectations.

Off on an adventure, on a sunny Friday. Getting on a train but not to work. 😊

Green leaves on branches viewed from below. Blue sky with a white cloud can be seen between the branches.

A green and white train is pulling into a platform. There are trees and blue sky overhead. On the platform there is a white lamp post and a white fence. The display board in the distance is blank.
