Arts, photography, film, astronomy & weather. Hoping to keep this place less political and argumentative than twitter, but I'm left of centre and believe in a fair society and being kind to each other... And yes, I do resemble Bevis in real life.

2025 goes down as the ~3rd-warmest year on record (based on ERA5).

Like in 2024, every single day this past year was warmer than the average of even the most recent reference period (1991-2020).

Eyes on to the northwest showers are more numerous than UKV depicts and greater banding. I do think we could see a little snow in morning before daybreak #uksnow #London

My unsolicited advice for the day. Under NO circumstance should you ask " how much worse can it get" It's right up there with "cheer up things could be worse". And so it goes.. sigh
a south park cartoon shows a woman and a boy and the caption he seems to get worse every day

A hearty congratulations to every enabler, opportunist, and morally bankrupt prick who helped drag him back into power…

May they all enjoy this new world they were so desperate to create.
