Ask your MSP to act for Scotland's wildlife.
MSPs will debate one of the most important nature bills in a generation on the 19th of November.
Take action and make sure they back a strong Bill that protects wildlife, not weakens it.

This is so great, I'm so jealous you got to meet her. I wrote about her in my book but I didn't manage to get in touch...was also worried about how she'd feel to be described as a 'historical' woman!

It's time for Eleanor & Alasdair Read That! We're talking Watership Down: a cutey-cute rabbit book for babies. In this month's episode, I become a Male Feminist™ and @eleanormorton.bsky.social sings the X-men theme.

Having the sort of workday where I’m now going to relisten to the Peter Rabbit episode of Eleanor & Alasdair Read That because maybe @eleanormorton.bsky.social describing Squirrel Nutkin as “cunty” will fix my mood

My understanding was that the joke was everyone thought she was a beautiful manic pixie dream girl who was whimsical and kooky...but actually she's impaired and no one's realised (because they're also thick)

I don't think Americans can tell the difference between English accents, I think Dave Thomas was just doing his 'British' accent

As far as I understand, she's meant to be 'British' and she's doing a classic 'Posh British accent' that non British people do when they pretend to be English and Posh ie it sounds weird. I don't think the accent was meant to do anything except make us think she was 'British' (ie English).

Ok, so it's not just me having a hard time reading them. He's giving off Charlize Theron in Arrested Development vibes, like 'Hang on, I think this person might be incredibly thick'
These emails prove that Jeffrey Epstein was so rich and powerful he didn't even need to conform to the rules of the English language.
