🔥Witch! Here’s the 3rd in my series of lino prints inspired by the weird guys on church misericords. This one is inspired by a wonderful carving of a witch and her familiar at Great Malvern Priory. Prints will be available in the shop from 12 00 (GMT) on Friday 23rd Oct. 👁️ slipperyjack.bigcartel.com

Enjoyed the bit in the new Hellebore on London Sphinxes. Some great great uncle or other owned the foundry that cast the sphinxes for Cleopatra's Needle, and we thus inherited one of the five small replicas gifted to each of its board members. Three are accounted for, two are out there somewhere...

You could combine the total output of every data centre for a year, and it would come nowhere near the computing power required for me to list all the famous people my mum hates for seemingly no reason

I like these weird silent credits from the Stonehenge episode of archaeology programme Buried Treasure (1954, currently on iPlayer), with triffid-like lurs held aloft

I can't believe it's only today I've learned of Radio 4 broadcasting software - actual software like you'd get on a cassette tape - in 1984. What a listing this is.

AUC is wayyyy better than I remember - it has all the somewhat tiresome back and forth about fire-making that I remember hating at age 11, but there's like actually some other stuff too?

Though not a fan of Ian and Barbara essentially having to teach the paleolithics about the concept of friendship and kindness lmfao - they did have the capacity for emotion

Lighthouse admirers, adorers, appreciators and aficionados assemble!

Keepers of the Light Currently on BBC Sounds For generations, the Stevensons built lighthouses around Scotland. Robert Louis was expected to do the same – but chose to write instead. Keepers of the Light explores the uneasy boundary between #art & #engineering #C19 www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Currently reading, and greatly taken by the alternate reality in which Doctor Who is about three people zooming around in a flying saucer as written by JG Ballard, John Wyndham, Brian Aldiss, Arthur C. Clarke and Kingsley Amis
