Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

"Scientists found wolf bones in a place that wolves could not have reached on their own. Boats, food sharing, and long-term care likely played a role."

I've been working on this piece for months - out today in @observeruk.bsky.social. Britain is now “clearly the worst country in Europe" in how it deals with protest. It's about how it happened and why it threatens our democracy, told through letters from jailed activists. tinyurl.com/5n92yve5

Thrilled to be back at @arvonfoundation.bsky.social next spring, teaching with Sophy Roberts, whose work I love. It's a new format, with 2 extra writing days - more time to really work on something and bring it to frutiton. And the azaleas will be in full bloom...Come! www.arvon.org/writing-cour...

review of my tiger book by @adamweymouth.bsky.social in New Scientist! "Slaght...is a wonderful guide, his descriptions of this unique landscape bristling with detail & feeling. As I read, I ached to be there, where cliffs forested with Korean pine and oak meet the ocean." shorturl.at/uY3Yk

US climate activists condemn 18-month jail term for non-violent art museum protestor Timothy Martin - ‘It’s hard to fathom how a peaceful protester can receive more prison time than many of the Jan 6 insurrectionists’ Story by @ninalakhani.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

My review of Jay Griffiths' hugely entertaining, hugely persuasive 'How Animals Heal Us' in @resurgencetrust.bsky.social - alongside with a gorgeous illustration by @rebeccaclarkart.bsky.social www.resurgence.org/magazine/art...

Very interesting study that suggests the often repeated story - that wolves are losing their fear of humans because we're not hunting them enough - has no basis in fact. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Scientists warn escaped farmed salmon could interbreed with wild fish, further endangering Scotland’s fragile populations.

The news is now genuinely indistinguishable from the Onion www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Great example from @davidmacdougall.bsky.social of how wolves so easily & frequently bleed into human politics. "The suggestion that Putin is responsible for the upsetting of the natural order...feeds a common Finnish narrative that nothing good comes from Russia." www.thetimes.com/world/europe...

A question for Times columnist Sebastian Payne: What is this cheaper source of "energy" that you speak of? The world's energy experts would like to know…

Gosh. Been trying to write something coherent for a bit but I‘m basically just really excited.

Tory party’s long journey away from science, reason, responsibility, common sense and truth is complete

I wrote an essay on non-fiction and truth for The Author, in which I talk about Capote, Graves and Durrell before concluding that writers just need to stop being full of shit.

I am looking for books/ articles/ interviews etc about travels with donkeys, outside of the obvious (Stevenson). If anyone's got any recommendations? Thanks

Just went to book the sleeper from London to Penzance - £309 just for the cabin, not even including the ticket. Absolutely batshit. Just came back from France where I paid 60 euros for the cabin on the sleeper from Paris to the Pyrenees.

Lone Wolf is just £1.99 on Kindle today (not quite the 99p it says here, but almost) - presumably this is a good thing? Anyway, get it here: tinyurl.com/27xy5utr

not sure you’d be allowed to write this in North Korea, lads

If you’re in the west, there’s a festival in celebration of the salmon, and a salmon run along the Exe, September 20th. These fish need all the love and the attention they can get…. tidelines.uk/blog/salmon-...

What a situation we're in. ▸He said countries were “destroying themselves” with wind energy and said, “I hope they get back to fossil fuels.” The most powerful country in the world is now punishing other countries for addressing the climate crisis.

Have any small publishers/ indie booksellers out there been affected by this? Would be interested in hearing from you www.theguardian.com/business/202...
