Here, I have restored a very rare colour autochrome of the great playwright George Bernard Shaw, taken in 1907-1908 by Alvin Langdon Coburn. The first image is actually already a restoration (done by Richard Sullivan), I have just done some further work to it. pic.twitter.com/hAGdU9WGDu

…ate a lot of greens…
That multi-retired ufc figher comes nowhere near the greatness of Bernard Shaw. They should never be mentioned in the same sentence after my sentence above ever again. im going to consider if my life is boring enough for me to think about the pub in Portobello, Dublin named after Shaw was appropriate or not.
Shaw was a rancid antisemite .
…wasn’t that fond of the Irish either…once wrote that if you tied a random Irishman to the stake you’d always find another to light the match…btw…is rancid worse than rabid…Charlie ‘friend of israel’ Flanagan’s da was a rabid antisemite…
Rabid suggests foaming at the mouth…so yah.
Rancid suggests rotting flesh and maggots so it’s all pretty nasty all the same.
Did he spend the last of his days in an Irish nursing home?
That’s a quote from Geraldus Grimbremus (check spelling) c.late 1100’s. GBS was proudly Irish. Didn’t suffer fools, including the little nationalists, easily.. he should be commended for that..
