I just went for a lovely birding walk in local Nature Reserve 2 and got inspired: with the help of the Merlin bird ID app I'm going to record all the birds I see/hear between 24/12/24 and 25/12/25. It'll be under the hashtag #2425YearOfBirding. Anyone want to join me?

Mask up punks! we keep us safe.

Reminder that one of the punkest acts of resistance against fascism is putting a mask on in shared air.

It immediately marks you as a brave and safe person for disabled folks. It’s not easy to stick out, yeah.

So imagine how we feel.

It’d be great if you wouldn’t help them by extending the benefit of the doubt, following dubious health advice, treating their side as “reasonable concerns”, and particularly and especially refusing to get vaccinated, wear masks, and clean the air.

Huzzah! Work is done for the day! Double huzzah! I've been out for a short walk with Hubby to get some air and sunshine! Now it's time to rest and recover 😴

I’ve informed Cosmo that he is a very nice boy. It’s important to keep him abreast of the latest developments

Thanks! Yep - unfortunately these sorts of cramming triage sessions aren't unusual for some students - the GCSE regime these days is really evil ☹️

Thank you! First class done. Poor kid has to know about homeostasis for a Biology test this week: we've just zoomed through structure of brain & eye, nervous system and reflexes in an hour, and that's only 1/6 of the topic! 😬 I think I've got GCSE English next....

Happy Caturday folks! I got a 4/5 on Visible this morning but I am feeling a bit groggy, so getting myself caffeinated as I get ready for a busy day of work 🥴 Wish me luck & see you later x

It is tragic how often the kindest people defend themselves the least and the worst people are the most adept at doing so. We need to flip this. Be a good person with a solid shield system in place.

Phew! Work is finished for the day (and it's been a very very busy day) so I'm now resting & recovering until bedtime. I'm solid working all Sat/Sun but with pacing breaks.

I really need to catch up with this - I love Traitors, and the bloody Guardian spoilered the last finale for me by posting a pic of the winners about 10 mins after it finished airing! I still haven't forgiven them for that. Hopefully I can stay spoiler free this time 🤞

🪦🎃Digging in the graveyard (she/her)🎃🪦 @diggles.bsky.social · 1d

That is perfect!

They didn’t just NOT give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, they wrote a citation that reads like an anti-Trump rallying cry.

(He’s gonna extra-tariff Norway now, isn’t he?)

Reuters @reuters.com · 1d

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

He's going to throw a major tantrum isn't he! 😂 Just hope he doesn't punish Norway for it....

Hey, being hated by the Daily Fail is a major badge of honour! That deserves congratulations 🎉 and serious respect 🫡
