#vegan #pizza (so much better cheeseless than with VG cheese!) is awesome but will not be perfect until I have a pizza oven! I feel a project coming on (e.g. I feel the need to force my husband to undertake this project coming on 😁)

Hey #vegan people! Can anyone recommend a GOOD recipe for something approximating cottage cheese - like a really good one? The few I've tried basically just taste like what they are (mashed tofu) but even after years, the cravings are strong!

Oh the awkward awkward disappointment when you make the exceedingly rare decision to go to a cafe specifically for some quiet time to read and you run into a bunch of friendly but very vague acquaintances and they make you sit with them and awkwardly awkwardly interact for 45 minutes... 😬

Ahh I do love macaques. "Sneaky hair-pulling to reinforce dominance in long-tailed macaques." I believe my older sister might have been a long-tailed macaque... 😜 brill.com/view/journal...

Look at #Claudius. Every day is #caturday, always.

Kawase Hasui, 1931. Of course it isn't, but it reminds me of Eel Pond #WoodsHole, behind the (former) Black Duck. Sometimes I do miss my hometown.

Yes, I am as usual very late to the game (I operate in my own time) but #wolfhall is, of course, wonderful! #booksky

Size isn’t everything. What *is* a nation, anyway?

It's #caturday and it hasn't stopped raining for weeks and it's not set to stop for weeks and #claudius has hardly left his pouffe for weeks and he's clearly not impressed. #rescuecats #cornwall #readyforspring

Having grown up in the USA, I'm disgusted but not surprised that some classmates are now rabid MAGAs. But I've just learned that a Danish friend - who I met soon after moving overseas nearly 30 years ago - is now a white supremacist islamophobe viking wannabe guy... 😳

Please watch.

I'm not sure where this image originated (Google doesn't help) but it's a good reminder.

Nonhuman #primates in captivity are dangerous, but they're not monsters. This is a nice article, worth a read. Ignore the "monkey" in the title :) nautil.us/what-primate...

"Let me get this right, UKIP became Brexit which became Reform which is now basically the Tories. So they ruin the country with one Party, rename it, then ruin it again, and then simply rename it again. " Credit: @dangoyal.bsky.social

Indeed. It can't go on!!!

This #Caturday Claudius says...

The fucking fuckers genuinely want #WW3 don't they? They're really going to do it. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

"Members Only Meatloaf" - #vegan, of course - from @isachandra.bsky.social, bringing cozy nostalgia to a freezing few days here. Yummm

High Five! #Gorilla #WildlifeConservation #NatureLovers #Primates

With my new British citizenship and right to vote in the UK, I was so pleased to help vote the Tories out. I thought #Starmer wasn't great but that he'd be a distinct improvement, and I thought that #labour was pretty good in general. Man, was I wrong...

Why? By what right? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

She really really means it. #rescuedog #cornwall

Christmas #caturday on a Thursday, because Claudius

This is how these goofballs welcome me home after 5 days away :) 💕

Thanks @primatesocietygb.bsky.social and @mckinneymonkey.bsky.social and co for a great meeting!

Fungal Misadventure (a story in the form of a Bluesky thread) "Have you ever wondered?" he asked, as they picked mushrooms in the forest near her house. "How many people died from fungal misadventure during prehistory before we found out which of these were safe to eat?"

Claudius enjoys yesterday's brief bright frosty sunlight. Today the dark wind and rain have returned. #caturday #rescuecat #cornwall

Have you seen a movie or a series that had a real monkey or ape (or one you think might be real) "actor" in it recently? I am compiling a list of such productions released since 2014 and could use your help (I am searching methodically but want to be sure I don't miss anything) (1/2) ...

No way am I a flag-worshipper but I do know amazingly apt symbolism popping up in real life when I see it. Jesus.

There was some important gardening to do today

If Long-tailed Macaques are being captive bred to supply demand, why would something like this happen.....? thethaiger.com/hot-news/cri...

I want to learn about the devil (in mythology, history, folklore). To understand what "the antichrist" really is (probably because Shitler seems to tick all the boxes all too nicely). Seems there are TWO books titled SATAN: A BIOGRAPHY. There's this one: (1/2) share.google/tHY6HlTKwmPN...

Impressive journalism @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social regarding closure of New England Primate Research Center, recounting traumatic death of monkeys, inadequate veterinary care, and more. We know today that #animalfreescience = better science. cc @whenwejustify.bsky.social #primates #animalrights 🧪

Check this out... spend a few minutes with it, it's amazing :) www.bluemarinefoundation.com/the-sea-we-b...

I have two - TWO - of these gorgeous original A4 meadow hare linoprints by my mum, Jo, to give away to a couple of lucky people here on Bluesky today. Rules are simple: to be in with a chance to win, you just have to repost this piece I wrote about Jo and her art: www.tom-cox.com/the-magic-ro...

BUT HE STILL HAS A 39% APPROVAL RATE. Why?! Who are these people? share.google/E8d42hFCoI3p...

This is brilliant

I've never joined a political party before. But yesterday, I joined @greenparty.org.uk :)

Any shares of this much appreciated! When my ex-publishers collapsed, taking over £20,000 of my earnings with them into the void, all my books suffered but none more than 1983. This is me trying to repair that. It’s about: Childhood Education Aliens Alpacas The East Midlands The old future we lost

A special #Caturday here... Claudius came to live with us five years ago today! 🐈‍⬛🎉

"Come on in, the water is beautiful & your autism will be cured," says Robert Kennedy Jr, as he swims with his family in a sewage plant. It is at this point that I see a tiny worm swimming frantically to shore. "I quit!" says the worm. "I'm finding another brain. This guy is nuts enough without me."
