  I had quite a sensible work day today. Since finishing I have put the finishing touches on a very silly parody film poster, and now I've put some googly eyes on some mushies. My evening may have peaked 😁 Thanks to @mock@social.cologne for the source photo: https://social.cologne/@mock/117387200489844188 #sillyScribbles #googlyEyes #fungi

  Quick update on the mushie family before working out what I should be doing with my day. #sillyScribbles #fungi #mushtodon

  It's Friday! Woohoo! First Friday of October, so we thought we'd go for a more autumnal vibe. And a very simple dance, because it's late 😁 As ever have a good weekend, if you possibly can :HumphStomp: #FridaySparklyDancers #sillyScribbles

  We did a lot of chopping today which was a bit of a slog, but we did create some new views into the undergrowth, and found some wee treats. Not the easiest to photograph mind you. There were some uncooperative branches still in the way, awkward angles, and local acquaintances passing by with cheery 'hellos' leaving me in a quandary about whether to try and explain what I was doing or not (I decided not - just went with a cheery hello). But despite all that, very cute. #sillyScribbles...

  Currently sitting and drinking a cuppa feeling absolutely shattered after a heavy duty gardening session, but I did find some new friends in the lawn. #sillyScribbles #fungi

  I found a grove of Z trees where the shadow hogs sleep. So that's a thing. Also I *think* I might be tired. Goodnight all, sleep well when night reaches you 💤 #sillyScribbles #tootingTooters

  Good evening. I bring news of the mushie family that visit each year. THEY HAVE ARRIVED 😁 (Also it stopped raining so I could get a family snapshot) #sillyScribbles #mushtodon #nonsense

  It's an odd thing making something that you don't personally understand a bit wrong, but not so wrong that someone who should be able to understand it wouldn't understand it* Anyhow, here's a Thai entry to the FFS project. To my eyes the script looks very musical & I like it enormously. Even if it is a bit rude. * Apologies, that sentence is also a bit odd. #theFFSproject #colourfulLanguage #Thai

  I have been listening to the radio today, & in each news slot I've heard someone talking about how Burnham needs to stop funding something else in order to improve social care, because you can't just keep raising taxes, & I am just desperate for someone to ask "WHY NOT?" So basically this is me shouting my response into the void. Might have to do an alternate version later... omnomnom. #UKPolitics #UKPol #colourfulLanguage

  A fungi family photoshoot 😁 Big thanks to @jan_mayen@social.tchncs.de for letting me scribble on their photo, which can be found here: https://social.tchncs.de/@jan_mayen/117335994458116653 #sillyScribbles #fungi

  So far today I have done nothing of use, and I plan to continue with that this afternoon. Taking a moment to think "if this isn't nice, what is?" Also drawing smiling faces on water drops. #sillyScribbles

  It's Friday! Woohoo! Had a slightly busier Friday than anticipated so I am glad to have got to this point. Wasn't quite sure what to do with the dancers, but have been playing Beat Saber this week for the first time in an age, so decided they could join in. As ever have a good weekend, if you possibly can :HumphStomp: #FridaySparklyDancers #sillyScribbles

  Ah, dammit. A bit of work has come in that is based on an existing InDesign file, but I no longer have InDesign. I could just go for a free trial, but I'd rather find a long term alternative. I've been putting it off because I don't do much print work and I think a little bit of me hoped I just wouldn't need to sort it out. I have a list of possibilities, but could really do with a shortcut to evaluating them all to work out what's best. If you've moved away from InDe...

  Ah, the mysterious tooters. Who can tell what arcane messages they bring to... oh. OK. Got it. #tootingTooters #noAI #sillyScribbles

  Doing the traditional Saturday afternoon photo filing, and I took *far* too many photos of these. They all looked so cute though 😁 #sillyScribbles #nonsense

  Woohoo! It's Friday! Last week we had a Punch Nazis Friday Dance & a repeated comment was, basically, "the punch is good, but I was waiting for the kick in the nadgers too". 😆 This was a good point well made, so my plan this week was to do that. Will be easy-peasy I thought - a bit of a can can dance & we're sorted. But I started a bit late, & it turns out there is a scaling issue with the angle of a can can kick & the sheer size of the fash needed for it to...

  Oh FFS YouGov. You appear to have accidentally missed out an essential response option here. I mean, someone tried, with that "if any", but they didn't really follow through. (note, this came after already stating my business isn't adopting AI) #AI #YouGov

  What the fuck is this shit? Reform UK launches a game app where mindless thugs can command "a Royal Navy vessel to stop migrant boats reaching Britain" and "a SmallBoatWatch app, which allows users to track the number of migrants crossing the Channel each day." (info already publicly available) Tempting to make a NigelFarageWatch app, which allows users to track where Farage is touting his racist diatribes that day, and who is funding it, with a side game to try and guide h...

  The FFS Project has it's own little bit of my website now. I can add to it as I go, and it flings them all onto a single page, and you can click to see them bigger with the language displayed. You can also make them bounce around the screen like an old school foul-mouthed DVD screensaver, for no reason whatsoever other than it amused us 🤷‍♀️ #theFFSproject #colourfulLanguage https://www.eclectech.co.uk/ffs

  Special edition Swedish entry into the FFS project, as a result of seeing their political news earlier today. I still can't see confirmation of a final result, but the left bloc still seem to be ahead, so just hoping that holds. On a more trivial note, that is a LOT of 'a's. #theFFSproject #Swedish

  A bit aimless this afternoon (plenty to do, not really doing it) so did some Tooter-based scribbling. It wasn't quite as swirly as usual, but that made sense once I realised what it should be called... Stars and Spikes #tootingTooters #sillyScribbles

  It's Friday! Woo hoo! I've spent a fair bit of this week Quite Angry at the world, & it *may* have infiltrated into the dancers' routine this week. But I figure that if I want a vision of the future I could imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever, OR I could imagine punching far-right fuckwits in the face & making sparkles. So yeah. I went with that. As ever, have a good weekend, if you possibly can :HumphStomp: #FridaySparklyDancers #sillyScribbles

  Is there a band out there called The Stochastic Parrots yet? Doing really dull, unimaginative cover versions. Maybe while wearing colourful feather-laden costumes. /idle musing
