TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Congrats to my fantastic PhD student, Will Salkeld, for his recent publication in Environmental Values! In the paper, he highlights the Martu people's fire-stick farming, arguing that restoring practices like these can be a form of environmental moral repair: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt: “The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist." www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

My paper ‘Animal Rights, Moral Motivation, and the Experience of Wonder’ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... has just been published at @the-joap.bsky.social In it, I argue for fostering a sense of wonder at individual nonhuman animals, & for making this the basis of a reverence-based respect.

Hannah Arendt, telling it like it - literally, currently - is.

...even your emotions have an echo... in so much space... #transferwindow

🥁Introducing🥁... My book-length account of why animals (and probably trees and rivers, too) should be able to sue us. Featuring: covergirl Kristy, who escaped the greyhound racing industry to enjoy a life of comfy couches, long walks, and peanut butter snacks. Enjoy! 😀🐕🌲🏔️ tinyurl.com/55myb64k

In England “wood with beaver facets [were found] in multiple human constructions, along with extensive networks of ancient beaver dams and channels that had been integrated into prehistoric settlements.” A fascinating piece by Sarah Newman on how animals inspired culture 🦫 aeon.co/essays/did-a...

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

No kings! No tyrants!

Some very excellent pro-animal signage found on a recent trip to NYC that emphasises animals' subjectivity - rather than just their capacity to suffer. Kudos to @peta.org 👏🏼💚🐔🐦

What a bunch of bloody legends! ❤️🤍

ARSENAL ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE

"Beach Haven is Trump's Tower". I had no idea such a song existed until five minutes ago, when my friend Mike Collett casually mentioned that "some pals and I were talking about Woody Guthrie at lunch the other day, and…." Good Lord. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Man...

Yes please! 💚 @philcosta.bsky.social

When photographs of industrially farmed animals are too overwhelming, illustrations can be such a good way of sharing the realities of "life" on the factory farm - I wish I had this to share with students this past semester! (Thanks for your work @mbolotnikova.bsky.social!)

I am very lucky to have been part of the team (consisting of the wonderful Laura Davy, Ariadne Vromen, and Molly Saunders) that put together this new, open access paper on attitudes towards care work in Australia: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

I'm going to spend my entire Friday wondering what it feels like to be "briefly swallowed" by a humpback whale then spit out again. #whales 🌿🌊

Arsenal W 4 - Man City W 3 Arsenal M 5 - Man City M 1 Not feeling very humble ❤️😌🤍 #stayhumblederby #arsmci #wslmciars

It’s very hard to wrap my head around how an anti-slavery republican party became a right-wing populist authoritarian one. Right now, Trump & his cronies are destroying every resemblance America had to the republican vision. Where are the real republicans?

Political philosophers working on protest talk about the importance of fidelity to the rule of law even when acting disobediently. This is a remarkable example. This woman has shown what respect for the free & equal status of fellow citizens means in a democracy.

Arsenal Men, take notes, please and thank you 🙏🏼 #wsl #arscry #wevegotmccabe

Spurs have scored an own goal in four of the last five north London derbies. #ARSTOT

That’s Trumpism. They don’t want free speech. They want consequence-free speech.
