@kinyutaka There was the famous question over on #fark "What would happen if I were to boil some Poison Ivy leaves, and drink it like tea.?" with the celebrated answer that the real trouble would start "when the oil hits the anus"

Walked back from dropping car off for its MOT and service and a few repairs via the new street art that's gone up around Hilsea Lido in the north of the city. Had to get there before the local oiks tag it and scrawl all over the artwork, because they almost certainly will do. Here's a small sample of the pieces, including that fabulous My Dog Sighs (eye) and Fark (seagulls) collaboration.

Just seen that the two main street artists in #Portsmouth - #Fark and #MyDogSighs - have collaborated on a piece in #Hilsea near the #Lido in the city. Looking forward to seeing this for ourselves soon. The #eye motif is probably MyDog's most recognisable work these days, whether here in #Pompey or across the country or even abroad. He also happens to be a fantastically approachable artist to chat to if you ever meet him.

Here in #Portsmouth we've got a few well-respected and fairly prolific street artists. Here are some pieces from one of them, named #Fark. His style is very much bold colours, cartoon-style stencils, and his birds can be seen all over the city if you look hard enough.
The final photo is one of his earlier pieces on canvas called Sweetpea. She hangs on our wall, and we picked her up for free as part of an art giveaway in the city years ago.

Speaking of algorithm-driven social media, heres's the TikTok of news, brought to you by the founders of Instagram: https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/31/23579552/artifact-instagram-cofounders-kevin-systrom-mike-krieger-news-app
Algorithms are "the future of social" according to Kevin Systrom. No business model yet, but I'm sure in wont be surveillance advertising...
If you heard of it but stopped going (like I did) you might be pleasantly surprised to hear https://Fark.com is still around, still funny and active, and still fairly left leaning.
Gladly the concern was unwarranted, but I always sort of wondered if it strayed right wing after 2016 infected so many humor/meme focused sites.
"The dream of the 90's is alive in portlan"
I just saw this strange thing on #Fark and I'd to share it over here:
Wirklich mehr als bedauerlich für die saarländische Kulurszene. Die einzige echte Grossveranstaltung in der Region für Fantastik ist nach 10 Jahren am Ende. #fark #convention #fantasy #stausee #losheim #reden #zukunftsort #saarland https://www.sr.de/sr/home/nachrichten/panorama/moegliches_aus_fuer_fark_100.html
