Dear Jim,
Please paint me a Tyrannosaurus Rex playing Connect 4 with Heston Blumenthal on a lake of fire whilst a care bear watches them lustfully.

Imagine a piece of tissue paper.

Coat it with cyanotype chemicals.

Fold it into an origami crane.

Let it be a crane for a while, in any place with a bit of light. Ignore it, play with it, whatever.

After a while, unfold it. Develop.

You'll get an image.

The image is the memory of it's experience as an origami crane.

Repeat. Every crane's experience - and hence every image - will be unique.

Here's 4 out of the >750 I've made so far.

My ink arrived! Now I just have to use up the ink in the cartridges so I can then start using the converters in my fountain pens.

Dear Jim,
Please paint me Jimi Hendrix explaining to an owl on his shoulder what a stick of chalk is, near a forest.

Not that I mind either way, but there seems to be more cat related content than dog related content. I'd be keen for insect and reptile content myself.

"Try reading the following out loud:

Hashtag screenreaders for the hashtag blind and hashtag VisuallyImpaired read every hashtag HashTags out loud and so it's hard for people with hashtag VisualImpairment to get the sense of the post because it's being constantly interrupted by well-meaning hashtag accessibility hashtag allies.

Easier to read with a block of hashtags at the bottom:
#screenreaders #VisuallyImpaired #blind #allies #Hashtags #accessibility"

This tweet is why, in my heart, I want Twitter to live on 🖤🖤

RT @fireh9lly@twitter.com

Twitter's dying, it's time for some real content.

So I came in to to living room to find Dad watching Only Fools and Horses with the sound off and pausing it at random frames.

"I was trying to work out what records he's selling in his stall."

So we worked them out together

Jeez, how did this page ever get going?

Watching and I remember those ads on Aussie TV! Rad 90s music soundtrack too.

People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

Dear Jim,
Please paint me Home & Away's Alf Roberts ballroom dancing with Neighbours' Harold Bishop, both in elegant gowns.

Thank you,

Well Paul, I wasn't sure if you meant Alf Roberts from Coronation Street or Alf Stewart from Home and Away so I decided to keep it down under and paint the latter. Hope you like it!

Am finally watching and I really dig it. Sure it is a little lame, and the facial CGI is weird, but I am keen for a crossover or sequel.

My school is trialling "marking from home" days during exam block. They finally twigged that so many teachers take a sickie on a day there is no exam to supervise that they rostered one off. Today I will do the computer entry stuff in a comfortable work chair!

Dear Jim,

Please paint me Lloyd Grossman on holiday in a filthy Spanish villa, where he is apoplectic after being served a dinner of tinned ravioli and a flat glass of fizzy pop.

Dear Jim,
Please paint me an anthropomorphised New York skyline battling a giant religiously fanatical prawn. Meanwhile the diamond falcon contemplates.
All the best,
