Golden Wednesday. That was quite an unexpected end to my morning walk. After going up Glastonbury Tor in torrential rain, I was on my way home and the sky cleared in seconds!

“The rain is full of ghosts tonight…” ❤️

Firstly, I love the title of this poem Secondly, followers know I love a sonnet. This subverts the traditional sonnet, written to a single lover, to a lament to the many – and though forgotten the emotional imprint of their kisses remain ‘the rain is full of ghosts tonight’ #poetry #poemoftheday

Poem - 'What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why' by Edna St Vincent Millay

Strange clouds and quite eerie colours this morning on Glastonbury Tor. This photo was taken about 30 minutes after sunrise. It was quite misty on the ground and very hazy but still made for a lovely way to start the week.

From the introduction to the Hookland Tourist Board I=SEE STRANGE HOOKLAND book:

REMEMBER:

Don’t go out by yourself at night. Many things in this book are thought to be imaginary, but being out by yourself in the dark can still be dangerous – even if you don’t encounter the Danebury Grim.

If you see something that scares you, tell a parent or a trusted adult such as a teacher. In extreme cases where you can’t find an adult you can trust, you could even tell a police officer.

Don’t provoke Faeries of any type. You would not like people shouting your name, poking you in your bed with a stick or throwing stones in your bath, so don’t do it to Faeries. No-one likes ill-behaved children, least of all the Elves of Hookland.

Don’t signal for UFOs with torches. It is not only a waste of batteries, it can be misinterpreted by the emergency services. Besides, we can’t promise that all UFOs are friendly or interpret your signal as a positive message.

Show some respect for the graves of the dead. If you were buried in the ground you wouldn’t appreciate another child dancing on your grave or trying to dig it up would you?

Remember to take extra care when looking for things around water – both by the sea and along rivers and pools. Even if he is imaginary, the King-Under-the-Sea should be shown some deference and Stay Belows not encouraged to grab at you when dangling your legs or trailing your hands in cool, apparently calm water.

Imaginary things can’t hurt you unless you believe in them with all your heart and then they are really quite dangerous.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a bat hangs upside-down from a telephone line at sunset. The bat is in front of a billboard advertising the Florida Mega Jackpot, which is valued at $5,318,008 - represented with a digital ticker. Panel 2: the POV flips to the bat’s upside-down perspective, which makes the digital numbers look like they spell “BOOBIES”. The bat appears delighted.

Last night’s Harvest Moon over Seattle. The clouds made it feel even more dramatic as it rose above the Space Needle and the Cascades. Also called the Corn Moon, this is the full moon closest to the autumn equinox.

A colourful end to the day here in Glastonbury. It was worth the walk I think. Now it is time for a glass of wine 🍷

Tonight, I filled out my online ballot. I will print it out and mail it with international tracking postage. We do what we can, where we can, with what we have. VOTE. Also dang proud of myself getting this done and not leaving it to last minute. Future me will be so grateful.

I'm a pretty live and let live, but after watching a few (okay LOTS of) episodes of Escape to the Country, I yell at people who can look at an ADORABLE cottage from 300+ years ago and go "No, we want something that is boring and like everything else" like YOU WALNUT PASTRIES WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU???

@glastomichelle.bsky.social · 7d ago

It is so lovely to see my Equinox image in today's national press. I don't earn a lot of money from it but it does all count and is also quite exciting if I am honest to see my work published. Glast day of Summer did make me laugh a bit though 😂

The best kind of masculinity is the kind that doesn't give a fuck if you wear a tutu and have a beard because your daughter wants you to be a fairy princess. Or if your son wants to be on the dance team, not baseball. Men are not defined by what some idiot thinks is masculine.

Landscape with Couple Walking and Crescent Moon (also frequently cataloged or shared online as Landscape with Couple Walking) by Artist Vincent van Gogh. Year: Produced in 1890 (during his final months in Auvers-sur-Oise).

This evocative nocturne features a dark, heavily textured sky illuminated by a glowing crescent moon and scattered stars. In the foreground, two silhouetted figures stroll across a dimly lit field, framed by a dense wall of trees that underscores the vast and solitary atmosphere typical of Van Gogh's late expressionistic landscapes.

One of my favorite cases of someone being Wrong on the Internet was a very earnest, very confused vegan who was telling people how cruel honey is; and it eventually turned out they thought honey was made by putting bees in a centrifuge and spinning them around until they threw up.

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com

Title: Gentlemen! Are you in want of a wife? Allow our algorithm to assist!

Image: a series of yes/no questions for that lead to different outcomes.

Questions include “are you rich?”, “are you dashing?”, “are you a rake” and “are you a vicar?”

Outcomes include “You win the most beautiful daughter of the richest man in the county!”, “You remain a bachelor”, “You marry a dowdy cousin” and “You rescue a 23-year-old from Spinsterhood”.

**Lights Out Alert Sunday & Monday Nights** Birdcast is estimating 300-400 million birds will be in flight.

From meteorologist Eric Snitil

**Lights Out Alert Sunday & Monday Nights**

"Heads up birders, I would not be surprised if the biggest bird migration night of the year happens over the next 2 nights. Birdcast is estimating 300-400 million birds will be in flight. That is a lot, but the pattern could not be better for migratory birds. A massive area of high pressure will turn the low level winds from the northeast to the southwest across most of the US. The last time we had anything similar to this in the fall was early October last year when a record 1.25 billion birds were in flight. I doubt we get to that level, but I suspect the number will top 500 million especially Monday night which looks to be the bigger of the two nights. You can help by turning off those outdoor lights on big migration nights, and the next 2 nights is about as big as it gets."

I am too. Whooping with laughter. Please watch with sound up. Usually I don't like the songs people pair with things but this is magnificent. Your day will be better.
