I'm in a little local cafe and the women behind the counter started griping to each other, "Oh Christ, Stephen's back again," "It's him, is it? I thought he'd stopped coming," "It's definitely him, look, it's bloody Stephen on a Thursday morning," "Do you want me to get rid of him or are you going to do it?" and so I was peering outside, trying to spot this nightmare customer, this pestilence of a person, this pox upon the cafe trade, and then one of the women from behind the counter ran outside, clapping two trays together loudly and yelling "GET OUT OF IT, STEPHEN!" and it turns out that Stephen is an absolutely gigantic fuck-off seagull who hangs around outside, menacing people for crumbs
Great news
ocean sounds for those of you who need it
thanks i made a little painting about it
Vetinari: everything I do is a carefully calculated move to keep the city running efficiently
also Vetinari: Yo drumknott I sent Vimes to uberwald this is going to be so fucking funny
To be fair, you can’t carefully calculate Vimes. Vimes is a shotgun solution that you point in the general direction of a problem, and he’ll solve the problem and anything in the blast radius of that problem
The upshot of this is that he winds up getting way more done than you were expecting - “Ah, Commander. Back in one piece, I see. How did the coronation go?”
“The Low King has publicly advocated for the rights of trolls and female dwarfs, the guards of Bonk have restructured into a proper watch force, the power of the werewolf clans has been divided, and we have an excellent trade deal on fat with Uberwald.”
“…Commander?”
“Sir?”
“What the fuck”
That’s an interesting one, the parallels between Detritus’s crossbow and Vimes himself are not something I’d ever have considered otherwise. The Piecemaker/Keeper Of Thee Kinge’s Piece. Both known for leaving holes in walls.
And, most importantly, it’s Vimes who sets the boundaries on when Detritus is allowed to use the crossbow, and the same goes for his own anger. He takes responsibility for both, because he won’t allow collateral damage. I’m not sure where I’m going with this train of thought but it’s just something to think about.
Vimes has canonically forbidden Detritus from using the Piecemaker on people (and presumably also dwarves, trolls, etc). That means it’s a weapon against property, which often translates to being a weapon against power.
Sound familiar to anyone?
i’m fairly certain the utterance ‘people and also dwarves and trolls’ would get you into some serious hot water in the late-game Ankh Morpork City Watch

Everyone please look at this snapping turtle, walking to the pond outside my house, still groggy from a 6-month nap.

Sultan the Pit Pony is a 200-meter-long, raised-earth sculpture made of 60,000 tonnes of coal shale in Caerphilly, South Wales. Designed by Welsh artist Mick Petts, the colossal work of art is known as the largest figurative earth sculpture in the United Kingdom.
@becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys
Amazing.
More accurately, the real life Sultan the pit pony was the last pit pony to be brought up out of the Penallta Colliery when it closed. The earthwork uses spoil specifically from Penallta, and it was designed and named in Sultan’s honour as a tribute to all the equine workers of the South Wales coal belt
The real Sultan was a bit of a local celebrity, by all accounts, and in his retirement was taken around local horse shows as part of parades or opening ceremonies or what have you. So, when the art was designed, the locals and the artist both named it after him.
It’s very cool being there; it’s actually so big you can’t tell what it is from the ground. There are picnic benches in his nostril
shout out to all of the tourists who get to see the real Boston attraction during the World Cup: the cop slide

at some point in your life you will be boiling fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a pot to make a syrup or jam. the instructions will tell you to simmer for a certain amt of time. your timer will go off and you will look at the pot and go, "hm, this doesn't look thick enough. maybe i'll let it go for another 10 minutes." this is the devil speaking. it's only so liquid right now because it is at boiling point. it will thicken when it cools down. learn from the follies of my youth and do not let this happen to you
at some point in your life you will be making a sauce or a stew in which you need to add cornstarch to thicken it. and you will prepare a slurry of starch in cold water and think "this looks like way too little starch to thicken this amount of liquid." this is the devil speaking. cornstarch instantly polymerizes at 95°C and if you add too much it will turn into an impossibly thick goop.
at some point in your life you will be making some sort of cream based dessert that requires gelatin to thicken it. and you will soak some gelatin sheets in water and think "this is too few gelatin sheets for this amount of cream." this is the devil speaking. it will thicken in the fridge and if you add too much you will end up with milk jelly
at some point in your life you will be baking cookies. you will take the sheet out after twelve minutes as the recipe instructs and the cookies will still be glistening and soft. "these don't seem cooked enough," you will think to yourself, "i should place them back into the oven until their edges are nice and golden." this is the devil talking. this is how you get dry, overdone cookies. the cookies will continue to bake on the warm sheet for several more minutes and then harden up after sitting on a rack for a while. trust the process. trust the process.
god damn this is a QUILT ('late day shadows' by nancy messier)
THIS IS A QUILT?!?!?!?
lmfao the Scots in town for the World Cup have made a pilgrimage to Boston's world-famous Cop Annihilating Slide

New Muppet Princess Bride drawing! I know some folks will want Fozzie to have a way bigger role in Muppet Princess Bride, but honestly I feel like the role of Yellin is perfect for Fozzie. This line in particular is already so very Fozzie, I can hear him saying it so clearly in my head. Fun fact, I had to redraw the second panel because for some reason in my memory it was Westley that gave Fezzik the order to rip Yellin's arms off. I almost wish I left it, just because the idea of dear sweet Kermit asking for arms to be ripped off is kinda hilarious to me.

i love the little spindle, the pinwoven garment and the top surgery scars!
thanks again @claypigeonpottery
