@Flick indeed. The sheer amount of rain has caused the roots to pull straight out of the hillside. Seen this elsewhere, but not my own yard.

My son's window

@nuala it seems alright. No leaks but will see what roofer says.

@feld It's dark, hard to tell. It fell quite gently and it's it's tall but not particularly thick. Will have to deal with it in the morning.

Well, a tree just fell on my house. Everyone's okay.

Absolutely fuck this rain.

A gartner analyst has asked to meet me to discuss 'emerging tech trends' and I've had to let them know I'm terribly sorry but I'm too busy wiring up my testicles to a car battery. Because I had a choice.

@MnemosyneSinger Easy to earn, harder to keep

@Alice It reminds me of the Japanese photographer that does a lot of this kind of composition. I love the strong colours. Are you out West?

@benjaoming This talking point was around when Moses broke the iPads

@Alice @DemocracySpot The 2nd works really well

@feld The political wings of some groups often have dissonant messaging.

Finally some warmth has come in. I cut the front lawn yesterday, just before the eclipse, and it's even hotter today. The car's AC ran for the first time this year when I took the lad out to see some trains at the switching yard.

@alienghic When I lived on the Solent they'd have a tug on the bigger ships because the wind would move them about. There wasn't much to hit there, apart from Fawley oil terminal...but by the time they are up there they are on their own power and making good speed.

@alienghic I was going to add I will be surprised if these panamax ships are allowed on their own power now. A tug with a line fore and aft will be the norm for a while.
