www.reddit.com/r/transgende... Guess what? The story about the trans M&S employee and the bra fitting is a pack of lies and distortions. Want to know what really happened and how colleagues stood up for her? Read her own account here.

@dinoconuk.bsky.social Mega Thread begins… Thanks to @pigeoncircus.bsky.social @charliebgraham.bsky.social @irishpalaeo.bsky.social and the other volunteers for all the hard work and effort put in over the weekend. Thanks to @palaeogames.bsky.social for the opportunity, trust, and belief. Pt1

Back from a fantastic weekend volunteering at #DinoConUK !! So lovely to reconnect with TetZooCon friends, and to meet a bunch of new ones! ♥️ Now to start work on some palaeoart...

I went into goblin mode last night and completed what is for sure the most unhinged zine I have produced to date. I'll fold some up tonight and put them around and see how people react lol If anyone is interested in printing one for your own enjoyment, here ya go drive.google.com/file/d/1eVEW...

I just voted against proscribing Palestine Action, a civil disobedience group, as a terrorist organisation. But I'm furious that in doing so, the government forced me and others to vote against proscribing two other clearly terrorist groups. Cynical and dangerous from govt.

It’s been a real joy watching the young storks grow up on the @whitestorkproject.bsky.social nest cam at Knepp Estate. 💗 Incredible birds and wonderful to see them in the UK! #whitestork #birdart #birdsketches #ohuhubrushmarkers #wildlifeart #wildlifesketching

These are glorious

I'm told we've sold 323 t-shirts so far, which is bonkers. Can we get to 500 by next week? The money goes to helping scientists connect directly with classrooms all over the US. We need science communication more than ever now.

WTF? If this Government can’t even agree to this smallest of initiatives, which has no cost to them & absolutely no down-sides, what hope that it will step up to the bigger nature challenges we face? This is a *popular* policy, for heavens sake. Obstinate tin-eared stupidity doesn’t come close …

Our review paper about same sex partnerships in birds is out today🏳️‍🌈🐦: nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... It has been so fun working with @tashgillies.bsky.social and I can't wait to do more projects together Yay to the gay birds!!! Illustration : @bertillemohring.bsky.social

there has been something of a fox development 🦊🦊🦊

I will never understand how a group of bigoted women go all out to destroy the rights of a tiny, marginalised group of predominantly harmless women instead of using their centuries of built up rage to actively destroy the patriarchy and the actual men who do us real harm.

Good morning, from the back page of Private Eye magazine!

According to Butterfly Conservation research, letting some of your garden grow wild (with long grass) can increase butterfly numbers up to 93% ! Click through for resources on how you can help save our butterflies, they need our help! ⬇️ 🦋

#JustIn: Scientists have revealed the fur color of Jurassic-era mammals for the first time! 🦇 A new study in Science shows that ancient mammals like Arboroharamiya fuscus had dark brown or gray fur—a sign of their nocturnal lifestyle

Beavers have been missing from the geological South Downs for 400 years, so this is a remarkable reintroduction, and one we're all very excited by.

Happy World Wildlife Day everyone! 🐾🐆🦓🦬🐼 #worldwildlifeday #wildlifeart

It's been a week since I saw the Archaeopteryx specimen in Berlin and I'm absolutely not over it

A landmark moment for beavers in England! 🚨 To unlock their benefits, we now need widespread population expansion - it’s time to normalise this native species. We’re reviewing today’s announcement against key tests we set out in our initial response earlier today 👇 t.co/dHU4806zrM

Fantastic news for #beaver conservation and will be transformative for UK rivers and wetlands 👏 🦫 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Thoughts on #DinoCon 2025, with a bunch of hopefully useful links .... tetzoo.com/blog/2025/2/... More info is coming!

bug fact: grashoppers already existed at least 100 million years before the first grass

With #BP announcing that they’ll slash investment in renewables, today feels like a particularly good day to sign @chrisgpackham.bsky.social petition to end fossil fuel greenwash👇

Some handy comparative anatomy studies from yesterday: human, dog, pig, ox and horse! ✋ #anatomy #zoology

Got my ticket!! Very excited :) 🦖 #DinoCon

A book account shared this two-year-old tweet of mine on Insta. I thought it was pretty innocuous, but it has now got popular enough for random strangers to be furiously commenting all like, “He made this up for attention! This is BULLSHIT! 😤 “

Quality Meat Scotland is a special interest group with the stated aim to "maximise the contribution" of beef farming. It is also a government funded public body. It has sent out material to all schools in Scotland, detailing a lesson plan that asks pupils to produce TikTok propaganda for it.

In the form letter I received back from my Labour MP when I wrote to them with my concerns about this, they spoke about needing to find a “balance” between supporting creatives and the AI sector. As if you need to find a balance between home-owners and the burglars breaking in to take their stuff.

Are you looking for some new amphibian figurines to add to your collection, or perhaps you're thinking about using them in the classroom? Either way, I am extremely impressed by the #frogs produced by Toymany. Read more below. #Herpetology #Amphibians stevenallain.co.uk/Blog/toytues...

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

This is 3/4 of the way towards 10K signatures and being guaranteed a response. But the real goal is 100K, and being debated in Parliament. Politicians bully and monster trans people because they believe them so small a group that voters won’t care in numbers that matter. Let’s prove them wrong.

Happy "Microsoft trying to force CoPilot subs" day in the UK for all who celebrate. (They just pinged me my renewal notice with it carefully worded to sound like a compulsory general price increase). 1) Go to your account page 2) Hit cancel 3) Change sub back.

#Microsoft is sneakily raising everyone's office 365 subscription prices to pay for their useless and power-hungry AI tools. unrelated, but LibreOffice is a community-driven, private, free, and open-source suite of software tools for productivity 🫶 www.libreoffice.org

1. Here are just a few of the ways in which Starmer’s Labour Party seems determined to alienate its voters and lose the next election. As they pile up, you have to keep pinching yourself and asking, “what the hell is it playing at?” 🧵
