  So my local Asda (supermarket) has slowly been adding more and more random fake animals in their displays. First it was a near-lifesize plastic/fibreglass cow on top of the milk cabinet. Then came a flock of fake chickens above the egg aisle. And now they have the bananas in a display with a huge ... fake plant coming out with fake macaws. What's worse is it's peak capitalism because every single one of the animals has an employee name badge. WHY CAN'T THEY BE FREE?

  Having your skill recognised has been a struggle forever - this from a case: Whistler vs Pushkin for libel "Holker: "Did it take you much time to paint the Nocturne in Black and Gold? How soon did you knock it off?" Whistler: "Oh, I 'knock one off' possibly in a couple of days – one day to do the work and another to finish it ..." Holker: "The labour of two days is that for which you ask two hundred guineas?" Whistler: "No, I ask it for the know...

  "What are you doing?" Printing labels for my pickling Spice mix "Oh are you doing nice labels with a pickle on it?" No... The best label.

  Love when an old guy has to sit next to me, the brightly coloured lady with pride pins on my bag, and he doesn't even seem to have a phone. Blokes are so uncomfortable on their own when confronted with what they're told to fear. So much awkward, nervous shifting.

  Happy Friday the 13th and the day before Valentines day. Thankfully a *friend of mine posted about their DnD campaign idea... simply "Skull Croquembouche" And thus this monstrosity was born. Made of citadel skulls, painted, and some UV resin (and glue), on previous bought ceramic mini plates. (CW: bones, faux gore, food) #miniatures #dollshouse (Friend not mastodon but is on insta @justjmw1 - they are also a great maker to follow!)

  I guess I should promote myself or something. I'll have an entry in the Perfection in Miniature Awards at the Kensington Dollshouse Festival, London, on Friday & Saturday 15-16 May. Something to put in your calendars if you're free and in the area. It is ticketed and has been sold out last year. Not allowed to post pictures of my entry until the show opens so it'll be a surprise for all. #dollshouse #miniatures #london

  Fricken Reform leafleters around today. They were seated waiting on the street corner i can see from my house. I photoed them extensively and filmed them waiting for their other leafleter mate to join them. They seemed to feel the need to stand up when a group of Asian students came walking by. Bunch of scaredy white men. It's legal because they were on a public street no expectation of privacy and I'm on my own property - Fuck em. Make them uncomfortable.

  Randomly looking at old stuff on google photos today and came across screenshots from a talk by Susan Elaine Jones (I think this was the pandemic zoom meet of CDAS (Centre for Death and Society) and it says "You could be remembered for: Things you didn't do, especially crimes. Things you DID do, but want people to forget. How you LOOKED - and judged for it. How you took care of your TEETH! Remembered less than someone who NEVER EXISTED" Then the next slide ...
