In Easter Season, add Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
I cannot recommend enough adding @bcpminuscontext.bsky.social to your collection because about twice a day there are created the most marvellous coincidental comments on adjacent posts...
This International Women's Day, please remember that trans women are women. Full stop. No qualifiers.
A little on the late side (it's been on the wall a few days, I just haven't got round to posting it), here is the Kitchen Clock, 2026 edition. As ever, each picture somehow represents the number whose position it takes; your challenge is to explain the connections.

Have been thinking about “immigration has been tearing this country apart.” Surely I’m not the only person to think that it isn’t true, but inflamed rhetoric about immigration by politicians is what is tearing this country apart and so statements like that only makes it worse.
Under Over Over - West Hampstead So it's taken a while, but I've finally found a location where you can clearly see London Underground trains traveling over London Overground trains. The vantage point is at West Hampstead Overground station at the end of the platform.
Happy Feast of St Michael and All Angles to those who celebrate.
Precisely. I also ignore people who pretend to be afraid of transgender people. Or ducks. The solution is to work on yourself and / or get therapy, not get rid of the immigrants / trans people / ducks.

Chris Upton@turkeyplucker.bsky.social · 2y agoI've been putting this on the Book of Face for years, now it's debuting here. Every January we devise a new set of pictures for this clock. Each picture represents the number you'd expect to find in that position; your challenge is to tell me how.

"Boxing Day" is another example of creeping secularism erasing the church. Remember the rephen for the Stephen.
*Radio voice* Somewhere in Northern Europe, a man dressed in red and white is getting his 18 elves ready for a big final push. At 3pm, one of them will be chosen to sing the first verse of Once in Royal David’s City.
I learnt last night that the expression is 'God rest ye merry', an old way of saying, God bless you. There is a comma after merry. The gentlemen aren't merry, they are being blessed! Apparently the phrase appears in Shakespeare.
First advantage of joining the New Place: new profile pic instead of the one I chose when I joined the Old Hellsite 13 years ago.
