It's out! It's a great read! Highly recommended 💪 Now can someone do the same for battery? 🔋🔋🔋 Solar is giving the world **cheap daytime** electricity. Battery changes the game: it gives that solar electricity**when you need it**. ..

This weekend's #MysterySeabirdDistribution. Who could this fine fellow be? Answers on a postcard.

Autumn 2024 - Faroese Storm Petrel Project, Faroe Islands - Tagging, Tracking and Monitoring European Storm Petrels

Summer 2025 - Storm Petrel Tagging and Tracking in Shetland and Scilly, with a short stint of Kittiwake and Gannet work at Bempton Cliffs - Mousa Aurora (!!!), Mousa Broch, Bempton Gannet Tagging Set-up, Sandy Scilly Stormie Chick

This is such a good article on how the undermining of universities is part of an anti-democratic movement: “Anti-university rhetoric is the language of an international pro-authoritarian movement opposed to centers of learning that model liberal-democratic values”

Interesting paper @alderneywt.bsky.social #seabirds 🌎🧪

here I try to argue why it is ethically problematic and even dangerous to ascribe personhood and -rights to they point of inception. The Faroese parliament will vote on Tuesday about replacing the abortion law from 1956, giving women the right to choose abortion up to week 12. 🇫🇴 wp.me/p4MFGH-16O

Very interesting presentation by @bardseyben.bsky.social on lightpollution in the Faroes and some brand new and exciting GPS tracking data of stormpetrels at this year's researchers night #seabirds 🌍🧪

What he said! 👇

#Pinks #ProudBlue ~ We need more kindness Josh Allen is standing by his words on the passing of Kirk. His original post read: “if you want to be remembered kindly, then speak kindly while you’re still here.” Allen doubled down: “I meant what I said. We need kindness - now more than never.”

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

See what this does to bluesky. On Thursday the Faroes are about to legalize abortion for up to 12 weeks gestation. What is it like where you live and do you know what is the reason for this limit of 12 weeks? Why not more or less?

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

The Kirk memorial service is set up as a religious revival (his killing has been framed that way by Cardinal Dolan & others). The singer says: "We want the Kirk family to be healed, and we want our land to return to Jesus." Christian nationalism had become part of Kirk's brand - it's on full display

Charlie Kirk war nicht „rechtskonservativ“. Er war in den letzten Jahren dem Spektrum des White Nationalism zuzuordnen, ein Faschist und offen rechtsextrem, hat gegen BPoC und LGBTQ Menschen gehetzt, ein radikaler Sexist obendrein. Man kann seine Ermordung verurteilen ohne ihn zu verharmlosen.

I know I'll take flak for this, but the principle - if not the execution - is sound. Modular reactors can enable the decarbonisation of parts of the economy that are otherwise hard to reach. But tying their development to the US? That's less sound. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

"A Neolithic rock engraving apparently showing a Great Auk being captured" Whaaaaaaaat? @sjurdur.bsky.social Have you seen this?

Could you repost the link to vote for #TeamSkua ? Thanks! www.birdoftheyear.org.nz

What an awful man he was.

Looks like a cozy nest site to me. Sensible parents, skuas make their nests near where the resources are - colonies of other birds and seals. Vote for the bird that puts family first - vote Hākoakoa Skua for #birdoftheyear2025 #skua #skuasforever @forestandbird.bsky.social

I have voted in the Kāpiti Coast District Council election, but more importantly I have voted for Hākoakao for #birdoftheyear2025 I want these birds on my side when the revolution comes.

We will be by your side. #skuaforever #birdoftheyear2025 @forestandbird.bsky.social

#birdoftheyear2025 - not this particular skua but please vote for its distant cousin down under the subantarctic skua #teamskua

It's family values day here at Team Hākoakoa. You'll struggle to find a bird more devoted to its chicks than Skua. Just look at that fuzzy brown face. How could you not vote Skua for #birdoftheyear2025? #Skua @forestandbird.bsky.social

Delighted to announce that my long-awaited paper on the NZ Thesis Project is published (& is open access)! Deborah and I worked hard to write this because we would love for all academic libraries to link their data to Wikidata - this tells you why and how www.iastatedigitalpress.com/jlsc/article...
