I always love it when I get the chance to check out these rather gorgeous tenement tiles on Victoria Road on Glasgow.

Beautiful tiles! Being victorian I wonder if the paint under the lacquer contains arsenic.

Voi pientä Siiriä. Syöjäsolu vei kaksi hammasta ja ne poistettiin. Nyt on surkea olo ja kuola valuu rinnuksia pitkin.

Poor little Siiri. Phagocytes destroyed two teeth and they were removed today. Now she feels miserable and drool is running down from her mouth.

I've run out of space on my YouTube watch later list. I guess I should watch some of them but I've created a watch soon playlist 😂

Looks like it, but YouTube has their calculations off by two some where in their code.

I

  1. Donned shorts and flip-flops for the first time this year. Croc ones and they were too uncomfortable. I popped in White Rose and they had a Nike pair. They are sooo comfy 😊

  2. Did a photo shoot at my friends studio. I brought costumes and hats for people to wear for my photo groups Funny Photos exhibition we are doing.

  3. Spent the rest of the day outside the pub with my friends in the sun.

If I was on the news covering the election results, I would simply stand up and shout "STOP! You've said all of the words. It's DONE!"

I just think at some point you have to recognise all of the words have been said and anything further would be devoid of meaning. From that point on, anyone that says 'deliver/ed/ing' should have to go to prison.

Last night I went to see Ex-Kraftwerk Wolfgang Flür perform. Peter Duggal was his warm up act. It was an amazing night with friends.

I stepped more than three times my daily step goal last night dancing!

I brought Wolfgang's Machine one album today and Peter's CD last night. The merchandise stand was cash only so I didn't have enough to get Wolfgang to sign one of his albums or t-shirts 😪

#today I

  1. Cleaned my bike, installed my bottle holder and phone stand. Then I had a little ride on it.

  2. Met up with good old friends for a few drinks and a pizza.

  3. Put out my new bird feeder on my tree and filled the window feeder with meal worms.

Hearing rumours that Brian Cox is going to be announced as the next Bond.

A bold choice, but one I support.

At last, a bond sporting a Roland SH-101 keytar. The Bond of our d:reams.

I got a CD from PDSA the other day. Played it in the car and thought the band sounded good with good ethos. Thought I might look for their other albums.

Then I gogoducked the band ☹️

Especially how he pretended to be the exact opposite. Reminds me of Jimmy Seville and his charity work cover.

I didn’t leave the house at all yesterday because my mood was so low, so didn’t clock up any miles for the Samaritans. Today I walked exactly 3 miles. 44 miles to go until I hit 70. It’s not too late to donate! https://www.gofundme.com/f/70-miles-in-march-for-samaritans?utm_medium=email&utm_source=product&utm_campaign=p_email%2B4803-donation-alert-

Nah, George's cool. He just wants to hang out, normally literally as he's a bit of a nudist is our George.

Well... this is disappointing.

Another lander that tipped over.

Each time I read / hear about these results - I think: Wow. Apollo was some scientific miracle. Slide rules. Very limited processors & switching.

If humans have lost the skills in 50-60 years... no wonder we can't figure out how humans of yore built the pyramids and more.

The difference being that the Eagle had a human pilot maybe explains it?

I picked up an old laptop a few weeks ago with a corrupt Windows install on it. I've decided to try Linux again.

I downloaded the @linuxmint ISO and ran through the verify process. I went off to burn the DVD, then I remembered my desktop has no DVD burner 🤦‍♂️

I've just brought a burner from ebay for £5.99. Hopefully getting it by Tuesday.

One of my local charity shows is selling The Birth Of A Nation on DVD 😱😵


The film was controversial even before its release, and it has remained so ever since; it has been called "the most controversial film ever made in the United States" and "the most reprehensibly racist film in Hollywood history"

@jake4480

I'm hoping the person who put the DVD out on the shelf doesnt know about the film either and didn't look too carefully at the box - it mentions the kkk on the front and there are stills of them in kkk uniform on the back cover 😱

This is terrifying. Police in the UK will be given the power to arrest people if they are wearing face coverings at specific demonstrations, the Home Office has said. Protesters who wear masks could face arrest, up to a month in jail, and a £1,000 fine.
