Assimilating

A picture of a Scottish delicacy. Behold the glory of the pizza crunch! Also featuring pickled onions and brown sauce. Yum!
A gif of ‘Gigolo Joe’ from the movie ‘AI’. He’s doing a disconcerting head tilt. Uncanny valley territory.
Screen grab of an attempt to post a bleet, featuring the error message ’Post failed to upload. Please check your internet connection and try again’
A grey cat with a peach ruff sits on a bed. She is beautiful.
A lovely ragdoll cat lies in a puddle of sunshine on a Glasgow staircase. He’s wearing a rainbow bow tie and snoozes. A little bit of curtain peeps into the frame.
An image of some odd bits of metal railing propped up against the wall. The caption reads “We are clearing out my wife’s dead first husbands hoarder property and these have me scratching my head. Why would anybody weld a lag bolt to a 32” long piece of 1 1/2 x 5/16ths flat stock?”
A view from a hotel rooftop across Athens at night. The Parthenon is visible towards the left of the frame. Highlighted by a ‘pointing finger’ emojo.
A picture of a cute black cat being petted by a man’s hand. The cat’s scalp is being pushed back and its eyes are stretched wide open.
Looking upwards to a second or third storey window set in a red brick wall (unusual for Glasgow). The evening light makes the bricks glow. There’s a fancy looking white cat looking out, and a pot plant inside.
A picture of ‘the little mermaid’ from the rock in Copenhagen harbour.
The Prince Regent from Blackadder. Hugh Laurie is aghast.
Kenneth Williams, camply iconic.
THE FIRST OBJECT The first object to be included in the Museum collection was a soup terrine shaped like a cabbage acquired in 1893. It was manufactured in Kastrup in 1755-1761. Cabbage is a large bud. It is the oldest known vegetable and has been cultivated for more than 5,000 years. In ancient Egypt, it was worshipped, and it has been used as a cure against snake bite, bad nerves and drunkenness.
A photograph of ‘The Burghers of Calais’ by Rodin. Dramatically lit, in an art gallery, moody dark red walls in the background. Lovely stuff.
A moody dark oil painting of a ship under sail, passing an anonymous coastline, moonlit, with clouds in the sky. Very much not in the style I associate with Gaugin 👍🏼
Rooftop shot of the sun setting behind a pyramid topped by a statue. The light is good, but I don’t know the significance of the elements of the picture.
A comic illustration entitled ‘Narcissyphus’. A man it gazing adoringly at his own reflection in a large smooth boulder he has partially rolled up a hill.
A pale cat, sleeping on a sheepskin rug on an office chair. He is very handsome and distinguished. But also very sleepy.
A gif from an episode of the X Files. Tooms reaches into a duct. It’s horrifying.
Sir John Franklin has gone on holiday by mistake.
A photograph of a grand stone pillar outside the entrance to a building. There is a metal plate affixed, it reads: “No. 5”.
The Burger King logo generator, it reads “Don’t Dead, Open Inside”. There’s an image of a burger below.
A house cat, or is it a panther? Stalking towards me, prettily but menacingly.
A screenshot from a ZR! fan forum. A message from Naomi Alderman, which reads “The missions start from a new place, they come with lots of mysteries to uncover, but also lots of our wonderful old characters. What we're hoping for is that these missions are both exciting and intriguing for players who've loved the game for years, and also are not too daunting for people who are Zombies, Run! curious but haven't tried it out yet, or haven't had a go for ages. I'm so proud of the work that we've done on them.”
A tree stands in the centre of the frame. A path leads off in the bottom left corner, grass to the right. The sky is cloudy, but not totally overcast. It’s Victoria Park, and the photographer has employed some combination of artful filters. All in all, a nice day.
Michael Sheen, flanked by two other aristocratic vampires, looking deeply unimpressed.
A beautiful pale floofy cat.

A close up of the face of a beautiful grey cat. The picture has an artfully distressed filter effect.
Two young girls in school uniform, twins, stand in a field, addressing a scarecrow (or is it?). A typical disturbing scene from the macabre BBC comedy, the League of Gentlemen.
A screenshot from a post on tumblr. The text reads “I guess you could interpret it that way if you wanted something to be upset about” and “New reaction image for 'posting something on the internet and having it be wildly misinterpreted'”
A photograph looking into a fairly narrow London alleyway. A sign on the right hand wall reads ‘Passing Alley’. The bricks on the right are dark, those on the left paler. There’s a small puddle close by. The first part of the alley is roofed, but daylight is evident from above, further along the alley. Some plants are growing from a ledge, a little above head height in the distance.
A map of London, taken from the citystrides website. Streets that have been visited are lined out in purple.
A pretty grey cat sitting on a towel on a book shelf. Coquettish.
A pale cat, against a dark background. Arty farty filters have been applied.
The Three Laws of Robotics: First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Second Law: A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Additional Context: Zeroth Law: Asimov later introduced a "Zeroth Law," stating a robot cannot harm humanity or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm, superseding all other laws.
A beautiful grey cat sits on a white sheet on a bed. The background is a bit messy, please don’t pay attention to that.

A gorgeous grey cat. A lighter patch of fur in the magnificent ruff around her neck. She’s sitting on the floor, looking up and to the side. Very pretty.
Christopher Lee, as Lord Summerisle in The Wicker Man (an exceedingly fine film). He’s wearing a fetching yellow roll neck sweater, under a tweed jacket with leather elbow patches. Swinging his arms in jubilation. Surely with such a happy scene, nothing bad could be about to happen.
Rimmer enjoying a triple fried egg sandwich with chili chutney.
A beautiful white cat sitting in a planter hanging in the edge of a balcony. Glamorous east London skyline behind.
