WELP, I SAID WHAT I SAID

Birds beefing over nest in orange tree. I believe first bird was trying to take over, and the second bird was defending. Anyone know which birds these are?

Pictures of two of my invented cocktail fairies. On the left: The Fairy Magpieo, who is based on an illustration of a magpie fancy dress costume from 1887, artist unknown. Magpieo is a white female, who is wearing a sleeveless black and white striped gown and elbow-length black gloves. She is seen in profile and has magpie bird decorations in her hair and on her shoulder, and she carries a black and white fan. She also has black and white wings. In front of her stands a giant magpie bird who is holding an orange cocktail bauble in its beak — and two more cocktail baubles — brown and blue — are sitting on the ground behind the magpie, on the lefthand side of the picture. Magpieo’s caption reads: “ THE FAIRY MAGPIEO. Heist expert. Unrepetant thief. Friend of The British Museum.” On the right: The Fairy Didor, who is based on a 1778 portrait of Dido Elizabeth Belle, by David Martin. Didor is a black female, who is wearing a white satin gown and a matching white satin turban, with a black feather decoration. She has a pair of diaphanous wings and wears a choker of pearls around her neck and a green and gold sash around her waist. Seen in three-quarter profile, her right hand is raised, with her forefinger resting on her cheek, while her left hand is hidden underneath a platter of fruit that she’s carrying. On top of the fruit platter are two cocktail baubles, one brown, one yellow. Flying in the air around her are three bees with similarly diaphanous wings and yellow and black-striped abdomens. Didor’s caption reads: “THE FAIRY DIDOR. Pollen expert. Author of savage memes. Friend to bees.”

Pictures of two of my invented cocktail fairies, both of which are based on 1847 illustrations by J.J. Grandville, from his ‘Flowers Personified’ collection. On the left: The Fairy Pricklette, who is a white female wearing a dress made out of thistle leaves, with a white underskirt. She wears a hat also made of thistles, adorned on the top with a pink and yellow thistle flower, and pink thistle flower petals also trim her short sleeves. She is carrying a wand, which she is pointing at a giant praying mantis, who is standing on its back legs with its wings spread and its claws raised. A blue cocktail bauble hangs from the mantis’ right claw. Pricklette’s caption reads: “THE FAIRY PRICKLETTE. Friendly. Good wand skills. Usually reasonable, except when mantises try to steal her drink.” On the right: The Fairy Arancia, who is a white female wearing a short white gown that has a garland of large, orange, bell-shaped flowers decorating the skirt. Large orange petals also decorate the top of her corseted white bodice, and she wears a headdress of the same orange flowers. She is standing with one leg crossed in front of the other and her right arm is raised — and hanging from the little finger of her raised hand is an orange cocktail bauble. Below her, on the lefthand side of the picture, is a giant white and orange moth, who is also holding an orange cocktail bauble. Arancia’s caption reads: “THE FAIRY ARANCIA. Dank moves. All the drama. Friend to moths.”

They seem to have fitted it on well enough to turn on the Not In Service display and drive it away.

OBVIOUSLY it is highly unlikely to be as good as the originals… but we are looking forward to that devastating natural disaster plot that wipes out Orkney Library completed 😏 #spoileralert 🤫 #ALLthedrama

I'm not trying to brag here (I am), but I completed one whole show on my "to be watched" list this week. Feeling accomplished. 💅 Only 75 more to go. #cdrama #kdrama #jdrama #allthedrama

You know your 24-hour race is a popular event when Thor personally shows up to cheer on the competitors. #AllTheDrama
