Meet James Ensor
alt text
An oil painting. Against a blue, cloudy sky, two skeletons, one wearing read rags and the other wearing a black garment and I guess a black papakha hat with some sort of badge on it, each have an end of a single strip of fish in their jaws. It's signed "ENSOR".

Appreciate the man
(This isn't quite as nonsensical as it first appears: _hareng saur_ (Pickled Herring) is a francophone pun for _art Ensor_ (Ensor's art) - the skeletons are Ensor's critics.)
You can see what is probably the original of the busby hat worn by one of the skeletons in this photo of Ensor's studio: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki...

my acceptance letter to UIC!
DePaul was my first application, but they're expensive as hell, so i decided UIC's Biology program was going to be the better option.. Spring 2027 i am on my way to being a biologist!
Congratulations! Science in America is hard, so this is extra impressive!
Salute!
Great!

If you board a bus, or airplane for that matter, with a mobile device and no headphones and you expect to consume media or communicate on that device without the aforementioned headphones you are, objectively, a terrible person.
This is not up for debate.

So you go and sit next to that idiot, looking over their shoulder at whatever show they're watching, or if it's music, just dance weirdly in front of them, maintaining disturbing eye contact.
I saw a post where someone on the bus was having a very loud speakerphone conversation. Fed up, the person behind them leaned forward and moaned, "Mmmm, put down the phone and come back to bed, sweetie!" Loud talker very quickly realized they could, in fact, have a quieter, private phone call after all.
Nothing like sitting next to somebody who's decided that the public space you're in is the best time to have an argument with their credit card company.

Giant sultana in a park
Mildura has officially joined Australia’s collection of oversized roadside attractions with the unveiling of a 5.25-metre-tall Big Sultana.
The 1.25-tonne fibreglass fruit is 525 times bigger than the real thing and celebrates 100 years of dried fruit production in the region.

"Kutub Uddin (Bangladesh/UK) reveals a magical and often surreal world of slime moulds that can barely be seen with the naked eye.
Fine threads, known as capillitium, emerge on the round, yellow-green bodies, which will eventually help disperse reproductive spores. Kutub says they appear like ‘tiny clusters or unusual textures on the wood, often appearing as minute pins, spheres or dust-like groupings’. "

A tiny original Mini Cooper in racing green next to a comparatively huge SUV
mittle buggy.
I dream of owning this particular setup.
There's a Subaru 360 in town with a big wind-up key on the roof so it looks like a toy car :D
@MackReed I know the owner, they're a fellow retrocomputing nerd. They've done a nice job, and it has the proper single central exhaust. It sounds like a racing Mini, too: quite growly.
@Xedrik a body shop in Glasgow used to chop Minis down to two seaters. At least one had a huge fibreglass key on top.

An old amplifier sit on a workbench in front of a concrete wall. The lights glow, it is ready for anything.
Used my leftover parts from the Marantz 2230 project to resurrect this old Pioneer SX-424 for a friend who just wanted something classy to put on a shelf. Nothing crazy here, just a reliable classic workhorse. Sounds fine. Looks slick. Just needs a little polish, deoxit and 3 in 1, and she'll do ya right. Sometimes that's all you want and that's cool too. Anything to keep the old stuff humming.
Ooohhh…pretty!

THE IRISH TIMES
Having a monarchy next door is a little like having a neighbour who's really into clowns and has daubed their house with clown murals,
displays clown dolls in each window and has an insatiable desire to hear
about and discuss clown-related news stories. More specifically, for the Irish, it's like having a neighbour who's really into clowns and, also, your grandfather was murdered by a clown.

A photo of a white and orange house cat sitting on a dish drying mat on a typical American kitchen counter. A white bowl and black cutting board sit next to him. His front paws are folded underneath him as he sits in oblivious comfort.
Taco the cat resting on my drying mat. I have dozens of cat beds around the house.
Ach. Looks like a lief beest
But Taco has a cat bed right here on the bench, where they can keep an eye on you - and your silly behaviours.
