‘Blink twice if you think Zuckerburg’s an arseh*le’ Here’s what happened when, thanks to Meta’s lawyers, Facebook whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams had to sit in silence at @hayfestival.bsky.social with @superwuster.bsky.social & @carolecadwalla.bsky.social (watch to the end for Tim’s verdict) 🧵⤵️

Did u know?Can this be true?I'm interested to know -has anyone heard of a Small White butterfly laying eggs on radish plants?The larvae are hatching & feeding too,which I'm amazed at & very happy with,as this patch isn't producing edible veg now. I'm hoping these will keep them off my kale. 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🐛🦋🪲🌍

Sand Beach. The Cuillin Hills of Skye in the distance.

Good morning. Breezy, showery, sunny. 15C. My hand surgery went well yesterday, but I won’t manage my camera for a wee whiley so still on holiday snaps for #photooftheday A cliff at #Noss, #Shetland, full of #gannets. Really wanted a dive shot, but no joy. Have a good day. #scotland #photography

Parkswatch: Flamingo Land – will the Loch Lomond South Community Development Trust bid for Balloch? parkswatchscotland.co.uk/2026/06/29/f...

Iran's national team was forced to return to Mexico after the match against Egypt. They weren't allowed to stay in the United States. They arrived in Tijuana at 4:00 am. Absolutely shameful.

If you're in the UK and looking at this, thinking "This doesn't look like a very good thing", please do head to pavementoverload.com and support the campaign (you can send a letter to your MP).

Good morning. Still, cloudy, but bright. 15C. Rain forecast. On holiday snap mode this week for #photooftheday Miabhag on the Golden road in #Harris. We were staying at the wee hoose on the left and swam in the sea here (April) Have a good day. #scotland #photography #meavaig

I don't often share a poem in draft. But I started writing this on Friday. And...well... While Watching Ben Stokes by Paul Connolly #BenStokes #TakeABow #poetrycommunity #SmallPoemSunday @tomsnarsky.bsky.social

Welcome to @jenthorne.bsky.social as a new #PromptCombo Host. Today’s response to #Monument is a bit didactic, and largely influenced by my time in a park yesterday, but it does the job :D

Many thanks to our host this week @jenthorne.bsky.social Here's my offering for #PromptCombo #monument #poetry

This week I’m debunking myths on the blog… maybe! drnaturegirl.substack.com/p/the-super-... #superwoman #multitasking #stress

For today’s #PromptCombo #monument I offer ‘the mannie’ reviled Duke of Sutherland monument which I can actually see from my back garden. There was talk of taking it down at one point, but it stands tall with graffiti and hate. Thanks @jenthorne.bsky.social enjoy your hosting week. #blueskypoetry

The A896 heading east.

Good morning. Bright and breezy here today. 15C. Feeling like I need a holiday, so as I’m not going to be having one, I’m sharing some holiday snaps this week instead. Harris Hills above Bun Abhainn Eadarra is #photooftheday today. Have a good one. #scotland #photography #harrishills

Did u know? Ladies Bedstraw is a fab plant to add to your no-mow lawn. Its name comes from the fact that its sweet, frothy flowers were used as a stuffing for pillows. For wildlife, it's the larval food plant for the Elephant Hawk-moth & Small Elephant Hawk-moth. Go on, get frothy.🌱🌿🇬🇧🌱🌍🪲🐛

Amazon made £55 MILLION in profit in the UK last year, but only paid a fraction of what they should in tax. Jeff Bezos is rubbing his hands together, avoiding tax, while we pay our dues. Don't think that's right? Sign the petition now.

A late good morning. Blue sky, white cloud, sun. Very slight breeze 21C. There are subjects I always return to for #photooftheday #lighthouses is one. With a coastline of around 20,000km Scotland boasts a lot of of them. This is Tarbat Ness 3rd tallest in Scotland. Have a great weekend. #scotland

Privatised water in the UK has been a disaster for everyone other than the profiteering investors. Time the whole lot was nationalised, and at no cost - these buggers have had £billions from us over the decades. act.38degrees.org.uk/act/big-publ...

You can also write as a little escape from all there is to write about.

A prose poem for #PoemsAbout #TheLook @thebrokenspine.co.uk There is a certain evidentiary value to the photos. I originally wrote the letter l but later found a picture from 2011 with the missing i in Hilton. Special thanks to @jenthorne.bsky.social and @daveashleypoet.bsky.social, iykyk

Many thanks @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk for your latest #PoemsAbout prompt #TheLook. Here's something a bit different from me: a quick love poem which I fear strays into the mawkish.

#poemsabout #thelook @thebrokenspine.co.uk Bit late today ❤️

Hello @emteepoetry.bsky.social for #promptcombo #beach here’s a poem about a fossil, it’s from a great anthology to raise money for Give Peat a Chance www.mklitfest.org/digginginthe...

Raw air is a whip of salt and dust water has claimed the unruly sand no foothold to descend to, made reckless from a native trust Only the body is allowed to teach skin prickling with electric sting yet crumbles slowly, nibbled by the wave as holed walls that unlearn the beach #PromptCombo #Beach

@emteepoetry.bsky.social #PromptCombo A #Beach #poem for Tuesday

washed ashore massive body humpback whale crushed under its own weight black sand glistened as if the beach itself was mourning the tragedy gawkers flocked behind sunshades and umbrellas empathy was lost between the waves @emteepoetry.bsky.social #promptcombo beach #poetry #poetrycommunity

#promptcombo #beach #poetry @emteepoetry.bsky.social Taken from a longer poem.

Bit of hometown glory... Story poem about our local ferryboat. People who live around here will recognize it. I told our host this week I'd try to write "a very small poem" and "not an epic." I think I landed somewhere in between? ⚓ 🏴‍☠️ #PromptCombo #Beaches @emteepoetry.bsky.social
