Far be it from the Doomers to pour burning petrol on boiling oil but maybe the fixing people might want to get a move on? Unless of course that’s just not possible? For obvious but boring reasons.

Ian is a man for the savage harvest. You won’t get him trugging around Versailles like some latter day Paddy Antoinette.

Never went back to the gaudy wildflowers. More subdued in the abandoned orchard.

Before and after in my old wildflower meadow. From about 20 years ago.

As a music lover I believe I am entitled to an explanation and an apology from every musician, singer, and drummer who is over 27.

Trump soon to declare Hormuz Strait an American state. This after the US defeated Iran very badly. In other news, President Trump is still the leader of the Free World.

Has Andy Burnham announced grand plans to do something mildly innocuous yet? Maybe it’s too warm? Does he need a holiday?

Surely the answer to doomscrolling is hopescrolling? Come on all you hopeful people! Tell us why we’re wrong. Amaze us with your dazzling intelligence and your ready wit. Or stay silent about your hope and pour scorn on those for whom you have no other answer.

Everybody is welcome to the VOID’s all new Extinction Jamboree and Hoedown although it is MAN only. But don’t worry if you’re not a Moody Angry Nihilust, you will be soon. Strictly no dancing. Just hard staring and indifference. Music by The Country Boys of Doom.

Some archaeology sits on the landscape while some is the landscape like these Sweathouses I found in Leitrim.

Ian’s position as Astronomer Royal to the Void is under review after he told fellow members to watch the eclipse by holding two magnifying glasses in front of their eyes.

In a stunning move in the Middle East, the US, the Houthis and the Iranians have all agreed to stop asking each other to not bomb ships. A special Memorandum of Confusion just issued has agreed terms by which all sides can bomb all ships, no questions asked. More as we get it.

All you need to know about the eclipse - the moon is small but the sun is far away.

Believing in climate change is optional. Believing in wildfires, droughts and famine is kinda compulsory. Enjoy your belief system, whatever it may be.

Rezaee: 'IRAN’s message is clear: the Strait of Hormuz will not reopen until the U.S. ends the war and blockade, releases Iran’s frozen assets, and agrees to a region-wide ceasefire, including in Lebanon and Gaza. Until all conditions are met, the Strait will remain closed.'

I’m not saying anything but strikes me there was no climate warming when we were sacrificing children on the altars. And I say this as someone who doesn’t like children. What’s that you say? The world is our altar? Cool! We done good.

Just listening to MSM earnestly discussing the very widespread drought in Britain before seamlessly moving to a series of talking heads telling us how vital North Sea drilling was to the economy. WASF. (We Are So Falling about laughing)

Went out to see The Druid’s altar. Irelands fourth largest megalithic site. A confusion of clabber and gutters and shrubberies. Not a single sign. Magical.

In fairness to the business sector and their politicians and media, they probably never imagined it would be this easy to herd the sheep into the abattoir. It will probably become a bit harder as extinction reveals itself through the open door but that’s when their police and army earn their keep.

Lake Mead is moving from its fake water level to its normal water level. Should it ever drop below normal it will be most likely because too many people are washing their faces with water before driving out to see all the shiny new Data Centres.
