St Mary's Churchyard, in the seaside town of Whitby, which appears in Bram Stoker's 'Dracula'. The Count's 1st victim on English soil is a Mr Swales, who is found on a churchyard bench with his neck broken and 'a look of horror on his face'. Stoker took the name from a gravestone in the churchyard - the stone is still there and the name, though faint, can still be made out. Many of the gravestones have no body buried beneath as the dead were lost at sea. #FolkloreSunday #folklore #churches #vampires #vampire #gothic #literature #books #horror #history #mythology #architecture #sea #weird

A ‘boarding pass’ to moscow. That is how some young citizens greeted Viktor Orbán at the polling station today—on a day marked by record turnout that bodes well.

When leaders stray from European values, people respond. Clearly, peacefully, and creatively. Europe is not just about institutions: it is about citizens who take action and defend democracy.

I hope the hive mind can help with finding a book for me. Many moons ago, back in the late 80s I think it was. I'm very sure I heard this story on Danish radio. Set in Sweden a child with divorced parents had to travel between them by flying back and forth from northern and southern Sweden. Back then you could "hand over" a child to the airport and flight staff for them to accompany the children to the destination. In the story the staff had help someone urgently and parked the child (main character) at a check in desk. This was where everything went wrong for the parents and staff but the adventure started. As the child took a handful of the tags that the children got to show where they were going. And they would swap these tags around so it say LAX, LHR, JFK etc. as they got put onto different flights around the world.

Am I dreaming or is this really a book?

Thanks!

Dear friends in #Hungary that vote tomorrow: Send Orbán and his cronies to Moscow or Washington or even better to the court in The Hague with your vote. You have been gaslighted for too long. Do the right thing. Vote for your people. As part of the European family. We are ready to help. We want to help.

The English water companies have told the govt that to fix the infrastructure problems they will have to increase prices to customers.
Just worth remembering that Scottish Water – which is publicly owned – has invested nearly 35 per cent more per household in infrastructure since 2002 than the privatised English firms, charging 14 per cent less and not paying out dividends.
Conclusion ….Nationalised water works better!

Oh no, the AI rollout would have totally worked so well if it wasn't for those Damn Kids sabotaging it. They do it out of fear, you see, because the AI companies' random text generators are so good at, like, jobs and such.

Positive News: France has announced its plan to ditch Windows & switch to Linux for government desktops. 🥳 🇫🇷

Not only that, but they have also moved 80, 000 National Health Insurance Fund Employees to open source alternatives replacing U.S owned Big Tech platforms like Microsoft Teams & Zoom.

It’s amazing to see the country take action, push for real digital sovereignty, & opt for open source solutions! 👏

A late #PhallusThursday because Mastodon was a bit buggy yesterday.

This man has the DIY attitude and a large tool to go with it!
