Reminds me of an avian version of Hancock from FFXIV! :)
A blonde-haired, pale skinned man of indeterminate age wearing traditional Japanese Kimono, Hakama, Obi and Haori in various hues of blue and black. A pair of small, red-mirrored, round sunglasses cover his eyes, and he is reaching out in a gesture of welcome. He is standing on grass, with a blockwork path running horizontally behind him and there is the trunk of a tree in the distance to the left, on the opposite side of the path. This is Hancock, from FFXIV.

Reluctant sale:

Sterling silver, art-deco style, fox Christmas tree ornament. It was a limited edition piece from Braybrook & Britten in 2023 and features a coronation hallmark. It has never been opened and comes with original invoices and receipts. Ask for more details due to space.

We got some little pieces of stained & leaded glass in Cambridge a couple of weekends ago. Today is the first time there's been a bit of sun to show them off!
A swallow made up of opaque white and smoked glass, with a tiny yellow beak and red throat. She hangs from a ribbon attached to a hook on my kitchen window. The view outside is in mild bokeh, featuring trees, grass and a cloudy sky. A happy little bat made up of various hues of purple glass, held together with antiqued black leading. He hangs from a ribbon attached to a hook on my kitchen window. To keep with the spooky aesthetic, a spider has gone nuts with some webs on the outside of the window. The sun is lighting them in just the right way for them to be visible. The view outside is in mild bokeh, featuring trees, grass and a cloudy sky.

I've noticed a really niche, geeky, sad & typically me continuity error in DS9.

Vic's microphone is wrong! He's using a Shure SM58; released in '66 to poor sales - 145 worldwide in 1st year. Vic's club is set in... 1962! Vic would be using a Neumann U47 - It was Frank Sinatra's mic of choice :)
Vic Fontaine (played by James Darren) Performing in the closing moments of Deep Space 9. A grey-haired gent with a very fake tan, in front of some gold lamé curtains, and part of a blue, sequinned logo spelling out "Vic Fontaine" in cursive.

What about a combination of the two? My WoL was helping Wedge with some weird bit of Magitek and this happened.... We call him the Garbo :)
A somewhat bemused looking chimera; combined from a grey Hrothgar and a purple Chocobo. The body is stocky and largely avian looking, with grey, scaled calves that end in 3-clawed feet instead of paws. His features include blue eyes, a Chocobo beak and cat-like ears with pink inners. The body is furred, wings are feathered. Snow leopard print feathers create a tail fan, and a long, slender snow leopard tail extends from beneath it.

~All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey... I'm feeling autumnal.

Artwork by Kimintaq on FA.
A commission of Karyx, a dragon of mulberry & heather purple hues. He has large, ridged, bat-like ears and horns that curve up from his widow's peak. His hair is pale, his eyes are pale. He is wearing a black polo-neck and an enigmatic smile. He is beneath a translucent umbrella, protecting him from rain and falling leaves.

I need some #MiddleAged advice on bags.

My EDC is currently an original ThinkGeek Bag of Holding Con Survival Edition, but I'm having back and shoulder issues & the shoulder sling style is uncomfortable even with little in it. What would you recommend in a back-friendly, easily accessible carry?
A tall, rectangular, courier-type bag in black nylon. It has a fuzzy velcro-like front for attaching patches with a small embossed "Bag of holding" logo at the top of it; a black webbing shoulder strap with a neon green and black shoulder pad, and a webbing pouch for holding a bottle or umbrella on the right hand side.

A cartoon-style Yellow chocobo wears a blue and white Ironworks uniform. He has goggles worn just above the eyes, a grey belt slung across his breast and grey shoes covering some giant feet. This is Alpha.

Some pictures from around Camden Market on Sat 9th August. (3/3)
Taken on the walkways around Middle Yard in Camden market. Some very pretty, brazen starlings sat on a window ledge. People were walking by less than 30cm away and they were just not bothered by them. 2 starlings stand on a guano-pocked stone window ledge with a white wooden windowframe behind them. A bird on a wire. In this case a starling in the sun, stood on a catenary wire between the main building and some food kiosks. The picture is taken from above, and the bird is just sitting. The plumage is fully iridescent in the bright summer sunshine. The background is a black felt roof with the number 21 stenciled on the right-hand corner.

Some pictures from around Camden Market on Sat 9th August. (2/3)
Some sticker graffiti on a side street in Camden. a pair of slender, azure blue & yellow alien-esque fingers have come together to form a heart shape with a pair of mis-matched comedy "boogily" eyes framed within them. Layers upon layers of different coloured posters and graffitti on a wall. Distinct in the top left corner is a right-hand-facing skull wearing a baseball cap in stenciled line art. The bottom right corner features a pop-art style woman wearing a yellow dress with various words printed all over it on a teal background. Behind her is a set of judicial scales. The whole scene is covered in dappled sunlight from a nearby tree. Set on a background of brightly coloured overlapping posters and graffiti is a stencil of Ozzy Osbourne in monochrome. He's wearing his signature round, black glasses & his manic grin. His hands are held out and together toward the viewer as if in prayer. Surrounding him to the bottom left is a silhouette of a ballet dancer en pointe, her skirt is made up of blood red sketched hearts. Directly above the ballerina is a blackbird in flight.

Some pictures from around Camden Market on Sat 9th August. (1/3)
A piece of kinetic advertising on the side of a rundown souvenir shop. Above a broken, sun-bleached awning is a neon yellow section of wall, with a skewer breaking through it. The skewer has red pepper, green pepper, seafood and onion on it. The advert proclaims "Anything's a kebab if you put a skewer through it - Let your summer side out." A deceptively peaceful shot of Camden Market, taken next to Coyote Ugly It shows a cobbled street with repurposed brick canal warehousing, set against a very blue sky. A handful of people are walking through the scene. A ziggurat of elevated walkways near the canal. Deep brown slatted bridges cross over one another leading between various leisure and retail units. The lowermost bridge is decorated with 2 colorful, unfurled umbrellas and some bunting. Taken on the bridge over the Regent's Canal, @losinglxve would like you to know "it took a lot of pain to be this soft". Written in white paint pen on the black bridge abutment.

Just to confirm - you cannot gift purchased mounts. There's no gift option, just use; and the flavourtext is clearly branded "untradable"

Well, *there's* your problem! C/O pipe in our vacuum cleaner got shredded weeks ago. Finally got around to actually fixing it. Bagagwa be praised!
A small part from a Dyson UP22 vacuum cleaner. It comprises of a small corrugated hose with plastic fittings at each end. The hose is almost completely torn through at the mid-point.

Tell me you don't understand the technology you work in without telling me... I definitely wouldn't recommend Structured Communications.
An excerpt from an e-mail that says: Good morning, Your correct SOGEA is available at the property. The difference between SOGEA and FTTC is that SOGEA doesn’t use a phoneline and therefore isn’t a part of the Openreach switch off plans. When FTTP or CityFibre become available we would be able to upgrade the services in contract.

My favourite artist and general all-round sweetheart of a person has posted this for pride month. I love it so, so much! Check out @seyumei.bsky.social and their Bromodachis series, featuring these two adorable so-n-so's! #Pride #Bromodachis #Keith #Sky #Demon #Gay #Seyumei
A piece of artwork featuring Keith, a toned redhead human and Sky, a purple-haired winged demon; neither known for their love of bright colours are both rocking pride rainbow sunglasses, and Keith is wearing a pride tank-top with an automatic weapon in silhouette on the front. Sky is wearing a more revealing tank-top with "PRIDE MONTH" printed repeatedly across the front. The text being slowly distilled down to "DEMON" as the lines move downward.

Whenever I find a fountain in a new place, it's a legal requirement for me to dance underneath it. #FFXIV #DawnTrail #OccultCrescent
A grey, muscular, himbo anthropomorphic cat - a Hrothgar in the parlance of Final Fantasy, does a fabulous umbrella dance with a white parasol under a fountain in The Occult Crescent.
