Mid homework crisis (THANKS, ADHD!) naturally I went to the Garden Museum. In a 1,000 year old church with a cheerful cafe, it holds the tomb of Adm William Bligh, who facilitated the slave trade. It’s not all grim- there’s fun British garden history & lovely art #garden #museum #botanical

Royal Standard is near a police stable and sometimes we get the benefit of a training parade! #horses #police#mountedpolice

What's better than Batman or Hellboy punching Nazis? Batman and Hellboy teaming up to punch Nazis together. This Nazi Punch of the Day comes from the 2010 "Hellboy: Masks and Monsters."

Today in random stuff from my collection, this Dick Tracy & Little Orphan Annie print by Joe Staton. From when Annie showed up in the Dick Tracy strip a few years ago while Joe was the artist.

“People get very complacent driving cars, because it’s easy, and you are very protected and you’re very isolated inside your car.

It’s easy to forget that there’s a huge amount of energy inside a car, even when it’s only going 20 or 30mph."

I just deactivated my old Twitter/X account and can delete it (so they say) in a month. Adorably, the X archive I downloaded all makes reference to to Twitter, not X, because I guess changing words on a computer is hard! De-Musking feels good! #X #Twitter #cleanse

English spring in London. Local flavor, local color, elephant (but not castle) and Prosecco as a harbinger of spring at a boutique in Blackheath #spring #england #prosecco #elephant

Today my class was fortunate to have the run of Great Dixter as guests of Fergus the Mad Plantsman. Lutyens added to the Tudor original and the garden is glorious even now. #garden #daffodils #England #flowers #GreatDixter

On Sunday I put in a market order & sold some Tesla stock I had forgotten about. It has been satisfying to see its plunge. Meanwhile my Games Workshop stock is going gangbusters! I’m loving Fidelity’s ominous graphics. #Schadenfreude #warhammer

My suggestion to Europe is to let not one single solitary thing slide. Apply the law, unlike the United States did. We just pointed and yelled, but did fucking nothing about it. And now look at this shit.

Feeling like you have no power or control? You are in good company. If you want to get a smidgeon of your autonomy back, consider joining me on Kiva & invest in Ndiop Ndoffene Group’s success in Senegal! $25 will change lives for the better! #investment #love #autonomy www.kiva.org/invitedby/lo...
Can you help Loren support Ndiop Ndoffene Group?
Kiva is a loan, not a donation. With Kiva you can lend as little as $25 and make a big change in someone's life.
