Damn, and at the height of Triffid season too
Have a horrible feeling the stage is set for loads of Brits to blind themselves today. Silly season making it a big news item. No glasses anywhere. People more scornful of authority than they've ever been. The ultimate finger in the eye to woke health and safety culture: your own eye.

This is a triffid and it wants to kill you.
My partner got weirded out by how much my new calathea plant wiggles during the day, so of course I had to capture an 11 hour timelapse of it wiggling.

And don't forget if you're watching the Perseids meteor shower tonight, it's perfectly safe to do it with just your eyes. No protective headgear is necessary, and no consequence will come of just staring directly at them. Signed, A. Triffid oh what a giveaway. Arthur! Arthur Triffid. DAMN

Happy Triffid Day tomorrow!
Don't forget that the Perseid meteor shower peaks tonight! It's one of the best of the year, with maybe 50 per hour visible. I wrote all about how to watch it for the 2023 shower; the basics still all apply.

People, I give you C65 - Sculptor Galaxy and M20 - Triffid Nebula. Both imaged from suburban Melbourne Australia. The universe is stunning.
