The revival of the Klamath River & its watershed over the past 14 months—after the completion of the biggest dam-removal project in US history—is one the most hopeful stories I know in our hope-stripped age. Magnificent @bengoldfarb.bsky.social essay on it here. emergencemagazine.org/essay/a-rive...

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia. This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give. How are Reform getting away with this? www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

Debates exist over Ophiuchus as the "13th star sign". The Babylonians, who lived over 3,000 years ago, divided the zodiac into 12 parts-however there were 13 constellations, so they picked one, Ophiuchus, to leave out. (Image below right by printmaker Sarah Morgan #Womensart)

Imagine the life-long cocktail of ignorance, arrogance and obliviousness, for a man with the face of Jeremy Clarkson, to pass unsolicited commentary on someone else’s appearance…

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals. Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’. What, Michelle? 🧵

Asters or Michaelmas daisies provide vibrant, colourful blooms well into autumn and are a vital source of nectar for bees and butterflies at this time of year. Named after the Christian feast of St. Michael (Michaelmas), celebrated on 29 September, look out for them flowering near you.
