I'm a quiet #UK #socialist who likes #words, #beer, #art, #football, #books, #Spain and #nature. I like talking about those things, not talking at all, and chuckling at things that sound mucky.
If I do owt wrong, tell me. If I do owt right, for god's sake don't tell me: I am not equipped for praise.

Yet again, #SWFC looking anything but a rock-bottom team. Cannot praise this group enough. If literally all of them had fooked off long ago, no-one could've blamed them. But here we are, relegation a certainty, giving the second-placed team a bit of a towsing.

Cleve Jones gave a riveting, rousing speech at San Francisco's No Kings rally yesterday, and he's graciously allowing me to publish it. He began: "The pronouns I use the most are the ones probably understood the least by those in the White House today. They are WE, US and OURS."

This is the first guest essay at Meditations in an Emergency. I'm proud to bring you yesterday's speech by the great Cleve Jones, who has for nearly half a century been a key organizer for the global ...

My #TradescantiaAlbiflora is flowering! Very pretty!

Does this mean I'm a greenfingered genius, or that the plant is dying and wants to have one last reproductive hurrah?

#houseplants

A tradescantia plant with variegated green and purple lanceolate leaves. The stripes look purpler (yes, that is a word) on the underside of the leaves when backlit from the bathroom window, while those on the upper surface and reflecting light are almost white. It also has flowers: small, three-petalled cups of lavender with white bristles and yellow anthers. Some are still in purple buds, others have browned out. It's all very pretty. (Not shown: the long stretches of stem with no leaves or dead leaves.)

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

I think I might have to pitch an innings or two. Which end of a baseball do I hold to bowl a googly?

Azul Buho @azulbuho.bsky.social · 11d

Was it 6am here in the UK when those beautiful #Mariners finally won? Because I feel like someone who very intelligently and not at all stupidly stayed up while 6am watching baseball.

(And all for the reward of getting thrapped in straight sets by Toronto.)

As a sad loner, I *never* go out on a Friday night. But this bar isnt packed, has a nice vibe, and they're playing Britpop (just had a burst of Sleeper tracks - get in!), so I'm making an exception tonight.

A bar. On the back wall are shelves of spirits and pictures of musicians. Some people sit at the bar. On the table in the foreground there's a bottle with a candle in it, a pint of cider, a book ('Why can't I just enjoy things?' by Pierre Novellie), a notebook, and a pen.
