From pint-sized penny farthings to tuna tosses, a beer can regatta to the Running of the Sheep, there's a regional festival for everyone's interests.

Thank god for a party devoted to improving the lives of animals. It must be tough going, but it's wonderful to see your wins. Thankyou🙏

Totally agree with this 😊

Let’s forget politics for a moment and look closely at how the winged maple seeds called samaras shake off rain drops. Mechanical engineering professor Andrew Dickerson of the University of Tennessee has been doing just that: buff.ly/qHUTfAm

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

Hen cages and pig farrowing crates to be outlawed in England. Humane slaughter requirements for farmed fish and end to puppy farming also in new package of animal welfare laws. Good! (Why only in England?) www.theguardian.com/world/2025/d...

PIGS ARE SMARTER THAN DOGS 🐷 Georgie Purcell MP: "Keep pork off your fork this festive season, pig out on plants instead." Pigs have the emotional intelligence of five-year-old humans but are mutilated and gassed to death. Choose kindness this Christmas. 🎄🌱 #Animals #Christmas #Xmas #Vegan #AJP

Who knew that when people said : "Stress is really bad for you!" they meant: "Stress REALLY is really bad for you!!" ? This becomes self-evident when the ravages of time start to undermine your immune system

19 December 1934 | Dutch Jewish boy Robert Goudsmit was born in Haren. In December 1942, he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection. --- Video about the first two gas chambers created near Auschwitz II-Birkenau: https://youtu.be/Rr6lF75fDmU

There are millions of abandoned oil wells across the United States. A group of unlikely activists in Texas is making sure no one forgets they need to be cleaned up.

SHOOTERS PARTY NOT HAPPY Emma Hurst MP: "BREAKING NEWS from the Shooters Party HQ: They are sore because lots of people don't want to relax gun laws - and they thought it would just be the Animal Justice Party who cared. Diddums. Stop shooting animals and get a real hobby." #AusPol #NSWPol #AJP

Oh, hello! I was horrified at Mum’s treatment- in a private hospital- for a broken hip. After shunting her back to nursing home too quick, she had to be readmitted & I combed the hospital looking for someone who gave a damn about her. Remember: ageism is coming for you too.

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful. Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms. This is dangerous & disappointing.

Ecuador just delivered a stunning WIN for the planet! Voters kept the constitution that made it the first country to recognize nature’s rights - protections that have stopped mining, defended forests, and saved endangered species. A clear stand that nature is worth defending.

I really didn't mean to sit here for 20 minutes watching this -not being an ardent cook, or celebrating Thanksgiving in Australia, or having a known interest in American food history... but I couldn't stop watching. Great job:-) And now I want to make one ( or, at least, eat one🙂).

Once a popular dessert (or breakfast) across the country, Indian Pudding is rarely seen outside of New England today but it deserves a comeback. youtu.be/RMSV5PVOA7Y?...

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.
