More exciting Late Antique news! "Experts believe the small copper-alloy object...was used to make decorative metal foils for high-status military helmets. The die stamp is the only one of its kind found in Britain...This suggests helmets previously thought Scandinavian may've been made in England"

"This Code of Practice is emblematic of the increasingly hostile environment in the UK for the trans and intersex communities. In its attempt to erase trans and intersex people from public life, this document is genocidal in nature." www.lemkininstitute.com/lemkin-insti...

Musk does not have a trillion dollars of things that sustain human life. He has the agreement of an imaginary system, based on what may as well be fairy dust, that his shares are worth that. We could be amazing, as a species. Why are we letting this bs stand? #CantEatMoney #CleanWaterNotWealth

Nuclear power creates nuclear waste. I have heard so many people telling me it is a 'clean' power. It is not. It just kicks the problems down the road for future generations to deal with. We, as a species,really need to stop placing money above everything else. Especially imaginary money. #FkMusk

WTF is going on with this 'change my mind', 'convince me', 'prove it' trend on SM?! I hope it is bots. I'm scared it isn't. If we really do have a massive wave of ppl who type that whilst we see kids being murdered, rights being removed from vulnerable groups, war crimes, etc., we are all fked.

Absolute choon. I snapped 2 cassette tapes back in the day, trying to learn the lyrics..! 🤷🤭 #TheyMightBeGiants #Nostalgia #TopChoon #KeepTheNightlightOn youtu.be/vn_or9gEB6g?...

It’s wild to me that most people would avoid entering Nazi-sympathising venues but right wingers will seek out areas that have rejected fascism and force themselves into spaces there as an act of provocation. People who have never been victimised are so keen to LARP being oppressed.

Roger Waters has rewritten “Comfortably Numb” for Gaza.

Please read the quoted thread. At the very least we need awareness of how some incidents such as this are reported on compared to others. We need to be asking questions. #TwoTierJustice #Islamophobia #HateCrime

If we don’t act now, many child refugees will be left in war zones or unsafe camps, away from their mums and dads. Email the Home Secretary now to stop the suspension of refugee family reunion – it just takes a minute >> act.safepassage.org.uk/email-home-s...

FIFA takes away Iranian flags at the US stadiums

Thanks for helping push this up the charts - a modest achievement but we've done this with relatively little mainstream media coverage. That's something we expected, so we came up with a plan to circumvent, which is why all your recommendations, shares, feedback etc matter a huge amount.

Look at this wonderful tree I discovered last weekend! You may be seeing more of it… (Accompanied by chiffchaff, my new favourite birdsong since using Merlin!). #treeporn #berko #localphotography #iphone15pro

The genocidal regime launched over 100 airstrikes over Lebanon, largely on the ancient town of Nabatieh, in the past 24h. Israel bombed Nabatieh in 1978, 1982, 1993, 1996, 2006 and now hundreds of times since 2024. bsky.app/profile/mega...

You start an illegal war, you deal with it 🤷‍♀️ We don't want to be dragged into your bs. And where are the unredacted Epstein Files? 🤔

Out surveying nightjars tonight, but I wasn't expecting this sky!

Better diagnosis doesn't "create" autistic individuals. It just means we are diagnosed. I didn't magically become autistic when I got my diagnosis. I always had been. Too many see the increase in people being diagnosed as a reason to restrict diagnosis rather than actually provide genuine support.

Never ever do this. Close the tab. The website has been compromised.

And my brain went straight to this...🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🙄🤣

The UK at the UN yesterday "We are horrified by footage of Israeli forces killing a 7mth old baby" Horrified enough to take action, like halting all arms exports, imposing sanctions on the Israeli govt & economy, & ending all military ties? So really you're not horrified at all

The most dangerous thing about AI is not that the machines might one day think. It is that we are being trained, by men with enormous financial gains riding on our acquiescence, to stop thinking for ourselves.

Lies the #RightWing media, press & politicians say, number 69,844: "we have a generous welfare system" The reallity is, we're one of the lowest in #Europe & much of the world.

I believe the answers to the below questions are: No & No. #Burnham #Labour

"A recent survey by the Pew Research Center found a sizable shift in the views of American Muslims when it comes to homosexuality and found them to be more accepting of it than white evangelicals."

Eddie Dempsey general secretary RMT said: “We are devastated to learn that a train driver and former RMT rep has tragically died as a result of today’s crash between Luton and Bedford. The thoughts of RMT are with their family, friends, colleagues and the ASLEF trade union at this awful time.”

It is a little weird how still so many people take it as somehow just a given that Israel has the right to maraud and destroy large swathes of Lebanon and occupy it forever and Iran is unreasonable for saying no

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.
