@octopus.energy we're going through the installation of a heatpump and my son and I found a pretty good use case for it.

Octopi created by rubbing coloured pencils against a paper sheet on top of our heat pump.

It could become a train, if we make it.

I bought this one once I moved to England. I had a similar one in Italian. I have mixed feelings about Metallic Love. I didn't like the story as much while I was reading it but something about it really stayed with me afterwards. I also really liked Red As Blood and a few others.

Will they ever learn? How do they not learn? Seriously? What is the motivation here, surely they can't be that stupid. Surely?

A low-quality picture of a kangaroo with a badly super-imposed human hand with an IPhone to make it look like it's looking at it. Badly drawn eyebrows make it look like it's furrowing its brows at the thing it's looking at on the phone.

Lal that to say: WTF.

I reckon they are at least partly recognising that a lot of women with brightly coloured hair wouldn't give them the time of day, as is proper.

Steve tweeted a picture of two women's hair, one with lovely rainbow tones, the other with black, auburn and blonde tones. He comments: "Unnatural hair colours in woman [sic] are a warning signal to stay away, Its [sic] an example Aposematism-the phenomenon of poisonous animals in nature advertising their toxicity and lethality.

@AcidManticore quotes him saying: "Exactly (smiley face) we are warding off predators, our mates actually like it."

I can cheat! Gemma, I choose you!

A cute white and ginger cat curled up in her cat tree. She drives engagement like crazy.

She beats me up regularly, ambushes me and keeps my cognitive functions in the right shape. A noble, selfless act.

But does he ever eat bamboo, and look cute while doing so? *Kawaii!*

: / I was lucky that our (planted by the previous owner) suffering cherry produced a new, taller, steonger cherry. We also planted a magnolia, a maple and a lilac. I don't know if they make things cooler yet, but I'm a tree succubus and I need them for brain energy.

A small, not-so-healthy cherry's bare branches is visible next to a much taller, more badass cherry.

The small one has been there for at least 18 years, the young one for 3 or 4 maximum. The young one is twice the height.

This is a cat picture checkpoint. Relinquish the most recent cat picture on your phone.

I am childish. But on a rubbish day, memes are my balm.

The Homer/Bart meme image. Homer has a hand on Bart's shoulder and smiles, with his index finger raised. The caption says: there is no 'chalant' yet.

I also have a ginger and white girl!

@greyalien.bsky.social I shouldn't, but I know I'll use this in Teams at work as a reaction image!

A screenshot from Forbidden Solitaire: a blue error screen with a sad emoticon reads "Thou hath ruined it." A monster with an eye in place of its mouth, no eyes in the sockets and a rather gnarly body shows. The monster has its arms raised in a sort of "what the hell?" pose.

There's also an element of insecurity/inability to be vulnerable: I used to make stories for my son - and he liked them. Were they "good"? I don't think so. Did I like doing it and did he love them and do I still have them? You bet.

A hand drawn picture of a child hugging a cat. A heart is also on the page. The text says:

"Ecco Micciolino! Gli do un abbraccio forte."

I was curious do I looked it up: it looks like it goes over the obi (the thing around the waist), so anything can be attached to it.

Photo of someone's waist. They are wearing a kimono and a dragon shaped 'netsuke' (a carved dragon in this case, that goes over the obi around their waist so something can be hung from it to be carried around).

My husband asked me "Are you testing yourself or their test?", I made the Anakin Amidala meme face at him (Anakin). This is accurate. I am Autistic Italian after all.

In fact: www.nhs.uk/vaccinations...

Screenshot from the NHS site:

Babies aged 6 to 11 months can have an early dose of the MMR or MMRV vaccine if:

they're travelling abroad to an area where there's a higher risk of catching measles
they've been in close contact with someone who has measles
there's an outbreak of measles

Speak to your GP if you think your baby might need an early dose of the MMRV or MMR vaccine.

@greenparty.org.uk hello, I visited the Gorton and Denton page and this is how it looks on my Android phone. I'll try and figure it out on desktop but can you look into it? donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk/parliamentar...

For something a bit less involved: I fond Loomis' pages of faces very fascinating. You could even have them in batches (maybe 3 of 4 faves each?) You can legally download his books for free or get them, they're great.

Pages from Loomis with some children drawings in pencil, making various expressions.

As for the floating faces: I'd reference how other artists solve this problem: manga artists are pretty good at this, they'll often tie the faces together by using a unifying element that frames them as well. Coming up with a decent composition also takes time. You guessed it: add that. : )

A few faces in pen and pencil. They are all tied together visually by a big fabric-like visual element.

And also picures of my cat, because I love her, so I spam.

Gemma beckoning me from the shelves. She's a gonger and white kitty.

Gemma's drawing me closer!

(The ginger and white cat from the previous picture, her paw appears to be dragging the camera closer.)

Help!

(The ginger and white cat looks very determined and her face is incredibly close to the camera.)

It is perhaps childish to reply with pictures, but this was me reading that:

A collage of a... I want to say dog? With hand holding a phone it's looking at with badly scrawned eyebrows.

I've been doing some visible mending. This was a big gash on my son's pyjama trousers - the fabric is really thin and hard to work with, but it was fun and he likes rainbows. #visibleMending

One leg of some kids pyjamas trousers: a rainbow coloured patch is visible on them.

No, famously they didn't turn it around at all.

A meme in 3 panels, with screenshots from the movie Titanic:

Top: Rose and JD Vance's face (sorry). Rose is looking slightly downwards. Vance looks his usual, but slightly forward, he probably already spotted the sofa. The subtitle says "I want you to draw me like one of your French girls".

Middle: close up of JD Vance's face (so, so sorry!), he looks focused. He has a twinkle in his eye.

Bottom: Rose lays, naked, as her mother made her, on a splendid sofa. A sofa of incomparable beauty. The embroidery, the finish of the wood, the elegance of the pillows to complement it. JD is just out of shot, but we can see he captured the sofa's likeness in a line drawing that faces the camera (and covers Rose's bits and bobs).

I did it wrong by adding feeds, salivating on sewing machines threads and posting pictures of my cat, once we got her. They'll ban me soon.
