I heard in the ether that there was a Facebook group called "Christans Against Dinosaurs". So, I searched for it out of morbid curiosity. Please join me on a tour of the oryctodromeus hole I fell down. First, what I understand is the OG group.🧵 1/15
In response to the Christian threat the Dinosaurs have formed their own Facebook Group. Apparently the Dinosaurs outnumber the Christians 4:1. I am concerned that there may not be enough Christians to feed all the Dinosaurs. Hopefully, most of them are herbivores. 2/15
The Battle Royale is now in progress! Move over lions. The Christians have a new adversary entering the arena! The Raptor Resistance. 3/15
The Christian faction have undergone a schism in record time. Even by the standards of religious sects. The only thing The REAL Christians Against Dinosaurs hate more than Dinosaurs are the Christians Against Dinosaurs.

SPLITTERS!
4/15
Existing as they did, before Jesus, most Dinosaurs identify as Atheist or Agnostic. Therefore Atheists are the Dinosaurs' natural allies in this ideological struggle.

I hear the Agnostics are still undecided.
5/15
I need to correct the previous tweet. It seems that some Dinosaurs are Christians. They Christian Dinosaurs side with the Dinosaurs. It seems they have not yet had time to develop human levels of religion-enduced self-loathing. Give it a couple of millennia.
6/15
One faction of the Christians are okay with "some" Dinosaurs. But only the modern ones. None of your mesozoic riff-raff.

I bet they think they're incredibly broad minded and tolerant. 7/15
Hold the front page! #NotAllChristians are against the Dinosaurs. Some are prepared to brave censure, or even excommunication, by publicly expressing support for their Jurassic Brethren. Their bravery must be admired. 8/14
Huzzah! The Cavalry is here!

(If Mr Grey was a palaeontologist, that would explain the bone he polishes in his playroom.)
9/15
The Anti-Dinosaur Christians have launched cyber attacks against the Raptor Resistance. They decided to start small by messing with their autocorrect settings. 10/15
The Dinosaurs have retaliated against the Anti-Dinosaur Christians by distracting their supporters with other clickbait groups on social media. No one is quite sure why they picked on Doom Bar, but it *may* have been because T-Rex can't manipulate a bottle opener. 11/15
I am not sure whether this group is genuine or another distraction from the Raptor Resistance.
Dinosaurs laid eggs.
Just imagine.
Devilled Dinosaur Eggs.
The Ultimate Delicious Anathema.
12/15
Outnumbered as they are, until this point the Anti-Dinosaur Christians thought they would be grateful for all the support they could get. Ummm... ...thanks... ...I guess. 13/15
Meanwhile, the Vegans are just here for the Tofusaurus Recipes. Bless 'em. 14/15

Henceforth, may our Christian and Dinosaur friends live in harmony at a safe distance of 66 million years. 15/15

This has reminded me of a tale, passed down through three generations of my family, about a weapons test that went humorously wrong. (Although not as spectacularly as the Panjandrum.)
My Grandfather Graham Lee was one of the scientists working on the Bouncing Bomb with Barnes Wallis (whatever the film might suggest, Wallis didn't do it all himself). He was a chemist specialising in explosives and furzes.

Here he is with my Grandma, Dad and Auntie Ann. Image
During the time when they were testing & training at Ladybower Reservoir in Derbyshire, they had to ensure each dummy bomb was confirmed at the bottom of the reservoir or recovered at dawn. This was to ensure enemy espionage did not get wind of the design or the plan of attack. Image

As we once more restrict our movement to help save lives, here is a reminder of the deities in the Idol Scribblings pantheon who can help us get through this.

No.1
Quatentina - Goddess of Lockdowns
(Her nemesis is “Girl Swirled” the home haircut demon.)
idolscribblings.blog/2020/05/03/qua…
No.2
Twometer – Goddess of Social Distancing

Should you have to venture out. You would be wise to observe the rules of Twometer.

(The favourite game of most Twometerians is the retro classic “Personal Space Invaders”.)

No. 3
Sloth – God of Staying In

Nothing better to do? Try worshipping Sloth!

A worshipper of Sloth can flick through all 999 television channels like a Catholic prays their way around the rosary.

The Wine Marten

A short nose, with overtones of musk and a long finish.
This Majestic mustelid is occasionally found rifling through the Oddbin.

"Cheers!" to @ElectricBowman for suggesting the Wine Marten.

What I Did on My Holidays

It had been a year since I last went camping due to C-19. On Thursday I escaped to the Peak District for some much needed R&R.

You want to see the highlights?

Aaaaaas yoooooooou wiiiiiiiisssssssh! #PrincessBride Image
(I am always impressed that Buttercup pushes The Man in Black off Carl Wark so hard that he lands nine miles away in Cave Dale. That's a good angry shove you've got there girl.)
Anyway back to the holiday.

Played a bit of Historic Graveyard Bingo in Castleton.

I scored for, "The stonemason accidentally ran out of space". ImageImage
