The more you know. Yesterday marked the 130th consecutive day of record global sea-surface temperatures, with yesterday's temperature 0.21°C warmer than the previous record for October 9th, set way back in 2023. The Climate Casino is taking the OVER on total 2027 fuckery.

Breakfast beer, hero of my youth!
Gentleman with beard reaching down to his Converse hi-tops. Wears baseball cap labelled "USA" and a tattoo on his fore arm. Clutching an empty beer bottle.
Done for "Poets Ranked by Beard Weight" by Gilbert Alter Gilbert, pubbed by Skyhorse. The latter pays on time and the former is a brilliant comic writer and fellow devotee of the divine Alberto Savinio.
This book is lunatic in a way that most books I've illustrated always are, but even MORE.

The Kimono Gallery @roger1952.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
The garment features a striking composition of bold vertical stripes in deep burgundy and cream, overlaid with scattered circular medallions containing stylized ume (plum blossom) motifs rendered in subtle tonal variations. Taisho period (1912-1926), Japan
This elegant kinsha (fine crepe) kimono from the Taishō period exemplifies the sophisticated balance between traditional motifs and modern production techniques that characterized Japanese textile design during this era of cultural refinement and international engagement. The garment features a striking composition of bold vertical stripes in deep burgundy and cream, overlaid with scattered circular medallions containing stylized ume (plum blossom) motifs rendered in subtle tonal variations. The integration of shippou (interlocking circles) patterning within the medallions adds layers of symbolic meaning, as this ancient Buddhist motif represents the interconnectedness of all things and the harmony of the universe.

The artistic approach demonstrates the period's embrace of geometric clarity and streamlined aesthetics, reflecting the influence of Art Deco and other international design movements that were beginning to permeate Japanese decorative arts. The silkscreened application of these traditional motifs represents a significant technological advancement, allowing for precise registration and consistent reproduction while maintaining the visual richness of hand-painted designs. The plum blossom symbolism carries its traditional associations with perseverance and hope.

Shot in Budapest, the commercial drew on early European cinema, Gothic film and folklore. Jonathan Burley was the copywriter, with Enda McCallion directing. The film also drew influence from Lewis Carroll and “Jabberwocky”.
