It’s hard to believe they don’t realize they are cute.

It’s snowing.

I’m sorry, but this is premature.

Photographer Kathrin Swoboda captured amazing images of a red wing blackbird's song, visible via the bird's breath in cold air and early light #WomensArt

Tree of the Day

Not four trees but one four-stemmed black walnut.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Today I’m giving thanks for trees. This is Apollo. He’s an old old overcup oak, a great friend to the birds and insects.

Autumn colors

People are finding out their monthly health insurance costs will double or even TRIPLE next year. Why? So Trump can give tax cuts to his billionaire buddies. Disgusting. #TrumpCrushesYourDreams

Richard Tice, March 2025: "I have never met Nathan Gill, and he has never had anything to do with Reform,"

"Hands up if you caused 23,000 extra deaths by being a dithering incompetent twat"

I see the beavers have been busy while I was away

Security operative with Italia accent at T5 LHR channeling Joe Dolce on the phone just said “What’sa matta you, hey?!”

Howeward bound after almost 4 weeks on the road. At least we ended up in wonderful Lisbon for a radio hit on Smooth FM.

Barcelona from up a hill

So here’s Bannon celebrating Theresa May’s ouster with George Galloway in 2019, and Farage thanking Bannon and Breitbart for making Brexit happen

Astonishing piece of journalistic research here. Not astonishing that @sturdyalex.bsky.social can do this fact checking (mad skillz and he keeps his receipts) but that broadcast media didn’t bother. 12 minutes of your life, well spent. Have a listen. Tell your friends

Is it just me or does anyone else experience videos critical of Trump hanging after a few seconds. I’m in Starlink and it makes me wonder if Musk is using the network to choke content. @support.bsky.team @bsky.app
