Most of my animations get posted within hours of uploading but some that may be considered "in bad taste" take a little longer. I suspect that the person authorizing the publication has to confirm any dubious gifs with the management. This animation could cause offence and an animation I posted after this one has been published. Let's see if this one gets approval.
None of your animations bother me. There is not much free speech anymore.
Trump is building his own social media site and I suspect I will create an account to check it out.
It has got approved on Tenor, I'm not posting much on Giphy as they cannot be bothered to answer my emails, unlike Tenor, who seem to appreciate my work and will answer immediately. The cancel culture is getting beyond a joke now, but it will nor stop me making animations that some do not agree with. I will also join Trumps social media just for a laugh.
Hiya Dave.. Thankyou for asking me to join.. bless you.. :0)
Hope you n Dot are doing ok.. sending you both lotsa love.. Speaks to you soon..
ttfn..
For a long time you were the mystery poster who was always liking my posts, I'm glad we became friends and your help on Pinterest was well appreciated. Dot is struggling with the Lockdown more than I am, she is the more extrovert one, and she misses the close contact of all her many friends. We are both well, had our first jab and have even sat in our garden in the sun. How are you coping? At least we can see the light at the end of the tunnel here in the UK
@Dave Sutton ....
I'm doing ok thanks.. I keep getting hounded by the covid bunch to have the jab, which i do want..just not the one they are offering.. But that's another story..
Sorry to hear Dot's going a bit stir crazy, being cooped up..bless her... :0) personally since hubs passed i've kinda been a bit anti-social in day to day stuff.. We hadn't really made a lot of friends here due to the fact half the time he was in hospital or at home not feeling well, while i on the otherhand was working in a part time job, (but all bar 1hr ) but doing full time hrs or running David up to Birmingham to the hospital.. But I've made some new great acquaintances (like yourself ;0)..)
on the soc-media side..so frickin angry when they shut down g+..!! And obviously more now on pluspora..
I'm glad i was able to help re Pinterest.. I keep in touch on there with a couple of friends made @ g+ who've not joined p/p which is nice..
Much regards to yourself & Dot
Have yourselves a peaceful w/end.. hopefully you'll get to spend more time in your garden.. Its absolutely pouring it down here.. Good ole british weather huh!!
Take care...

@Corinne Howell I'm pleased that we have made contact here, it's good that Kathy and Craig are here as well, maybe we will get a few more joining us. "Nextdoor" worked, but it was not very active there and was not the best of places to send personal messages. Next Tuesday promises to be a warm day (21 C) so we will be buying a bottle of ouzo tomorrow in the hope that we will be able to drink it while sitting in the garden. I know that you have met Craig (the naughty boy) but not sure if you have spoken to Kathy (The girl with everything including a nice red car that I am so envious of) both friends from Google+
This is interesting, Tenor deleted this animation when I tried to upload it but Giphy accepted it. Maybe Rule Britannia as a keyword was considered racist
@Dave Sutton Hahaha!!! It wasn't Rule Britannia why they didn't accept it, Dave! 🤣😅😁 It's the arm motion of your little Teddy...it almost looks, well.. obscene, if you catch my meaning. 🤭😳😲
You may be right as this one got published!
@Dave Sutton You're bad....😆😅🤣
The EU seems to be falling apart and a lot of in fighting is going on
@Dave Sutton So, what's your opinion on all of this, Dave? From an outsider's point of view, it looks as if the EU is just trying to punish the whole Brexit thing. The US has been criticized by them for having more vaccine on hand than they have. Just because we ordered and paid for more doses while the EU gambled with their citizen's lives while trying to negotiate for better prices and better deals. Then putting holds on the AZ jabs and passing this latest ridiculous law about exports. This is not a game where you simply move pieces around on a board, these are people's very lives that they're monkeying around with, and every single member of the EU Parliament should be removed from office. They should all be ashamed of themselves!
@Kathy D I agree with you completely, and I'm hearing that EU countries are having their highest infection rates yet. We are also hearing that Biden is not a lover of Brexit because of his Irish ancestry and that trade deals with the US are going to be difficult.
@Dave Sutton Well, despite Biden's Irish ancestry, I've never heard him mention Brexit. He knows that Britain is one of our closest allies, and right now they're trying to decide what to do with our stockpiles. He and Boris are speaking almost every day, but we've not yet heard what his plans are. One good thing about Biden is that he's a humanitarian. We all know what Trump would have done if he had been reelected.
Ireland (apart from Northern Ireland) is still in the EU so is not getting the amount of vaccines like the UK, their infection rates are not the same as the UK's.
In the UK we have an R rate of under 1 so as from tomorrow some restrictions are being lifted, and I will be able to meet up with my daughter and granddaughter at a safe distance in my garden. What restrictions have you got at the moment?
Same old restrictions in California. I'm not sure why people who are fully vaccinated need any restrictions.
I suppose fully vaccinated people can still pass the virus on, so I can understand certain restrictions. Just read in the news that the UK intends to send millions of vaccines to Ireland.
Hi-Ya @Corinne Howell ...Thanks for the likes, how are you enjoying this lovely warm weather?
