Morning All!

So, I hear Switzerland won, but Ukraine and Israel won the public vote in thus supporting my view that most people harbour at least one unforgivably awful and ignorant opinion that, were I to know it, would make me go right off them 😡

Most European countries are looking at least as fucked up as the UK these days

@Greenseer Fuck sake. I hope all the people I asked to unfollow me if they were watching it did so.
The more attention you pay to international news from their individual national press, the more you realise that it's merely a matter of to what degree each country is fucked up.

If they're worried enough to start lobbying against you, I'd say Palestine Action were at the "fight" stage. And they're not quitting ✊ 🇵🇸

Well that didn't take too long:

'sources' are now saying that Natalie Elphicke did not so much experience a political conversion as storm out of the Tory party having twice been refused Ministerial posts.

And, more explicitly Tories seem to be happy to say that it was her conduct in trying to excuse her husband's conviction for sexual assault (for which she has belatedly apologised).

No surprise the Tories want to depict her as tainted... & perhaps no surprise Streeting is defending her!

@ChrisMayLA6 Euch. When is this "every day it gets worse and more sordid" going to stop? 😩

Breakfast ordered. I'm disinclined to go for the cheese Omelette, just glancing at the menu photo is off-putting, so it's croissants with jam and a milky coffee.

@FiveSeventeen Sound decision. Hope it was yum - or as yum as train food is capable of being.

'The Ministry of Ungentlemenly Warfare', new film, started out well and fell away, based on a true story from WW2. Like The Sea Wolves, boys own adventure stuff, 4/10, featuring Henry Cavill and Alan Ritchson.

@Roadwarrior29 Dark Matter: first ten minutes a bit meh, which I let pass because character establishing, then "woah!" Interludes of mild nonsense, but the "woah!" is worth it. V. disappointed with Jennifer Connolly, who's usually great.

I for one am glad she's back...because that quote below is my life for the last five years; the world in microcosm:

"You admit you're scared. You admit you don't know what to do. You stop. You listen. You look for answers. You come up with a plan. You abandon your previous assumptions about reality. You adjust to the new reality in front of you."

@MostlyTato Same, except for about eight years. Thankfully over now.

@MostlyTato Indeed. It teaches resilience and, when you get through it, a different perspective on life and your own character.

Did Flash Gordon really save every one of us?

I know Freddie claims he did. As much as I love Freddie he also claims to be a champion and I never saw him compete in anything. Not as reliable a source as we assume. This could be fake news.

@TCMuffin Enjoy! I still haven't got round to watching that yet. I'm starting Dark Matter.
Have a tippety top evening honey x

@TCMuffin It's been lurking on my hard drive for a couple of weeks - I haven't got round to it yet. Keep getting distracted by newer, shinier series 🤣

fkamiah17,
@fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

@TCMuffin I've heard that from a few people on here - I'm an inveterate binge-watcher, so it might make the playlist next week while it's raining ... have you seen Foundation?

@TCMuffin Picked it up on spec but it's still on the ever-expanding list - looks good mind!

I love scavenging the back alleys. I found this! Its a mini trash can, based on the sort of thing we actually put rubbish in when I was young. It had mould inside, so I'm assuming it may have been meant to be for kitchen scraps outside. One of the handles was broken so that was fixed. No idea what to use it for, but its cool.

fkamiah17,
@fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

@MostlyTato Idea - you could half fill it with soil, plant some wildflowers (for the bees), and put a pole with a t-bar (an old spade handle, maybe?) in the middle to hang bird feeders off. You could even attach the lid to the top to make it a bird bath ...

fkamiah17,
@fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

@MostlyTato You can never have too many feeders, bird baths or wildflowers 🥰

fkamiah17,
@fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

@MostlyTato 🤣
Tbh at least three of my feeders have been camouflaged by rampant honeysuckle and clematis - bird still seem to find them though!

Anyway, I'm off to watch the first episodes of Dark Matter until it gets dark enough to (hopefully) see the aurora again.

The woodland bank is looking lush at this time of year. I'm kind of proud of this little wasteland area that has become such a variety of green and flowers.

fkamiah17,
@fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

@MostlyTato Wow, that's fantastic! Got back from my wandering to find all sorts of things blooming in the garden so, now I've finally got round to setting up my camera (only 3 years late!), I'll post some pictures either tomorrow or Monday.
Seriously though - good work 👍

A couple of pictures from the camp in the Brandenburg Forest, where activists are trying to stop a Tesla factory.
Edit: Here's another one, from when they stormed the factory yesterday.
Double edit: an article too

@ecadre Dunno about backfiring - to real people, for sure. For the media and politicians - not so much.

Daily today is NOT a pic of last night’s aurora (seen it all amazing with the naked eye when a kid in Sutherland anyway, no, not sulking because I missed it, why would you think that). It’s a pic of the estuary, with bonus Not My Labrador refusing to come out. Again.
