Zoos are prisons for those that have committed no crimes.

An illustration showing a zoo-like enclosure where naked humans (a man, a woman holding a baby) are sitting behind a fence, looking sad and defeated. Outside the fence, alien-like beings point, take photos, and admire them, with one saying, "Look how they treat humans humanely to protect their population!" A zebra is seen in a neighboring enclosure. The image is a satirical commentary on how humans justify captivity and exploitation of other animals.

P.S tx for the blackberry reminder....

Lavender and sage will, they're native Mediterranean plants. Their thin grayish colour leaves are adapted to deal with little water. If they're in pots they will need water though as plants in pots dry out quicker

I’ll be doing my first-ever London walks for @citylit.bsky.social next month and would be delighted if you’d care to stroll with me.
First up, a 2-hour exploration of Whitechapel/Spitalfields and life there in the late-19th-century – on Tuesday 8 July, 11am

5 things (Railton Road) 1) Sam the wheels 2) jogger petting b&w cat by playground 3) someone with BBQ burning at 8AM 4) media worker on lime bike jumping lights 5) clucking bag head staggering past handsome seagull.
It's just Railton stretching & yawning. South London putting its feet on the floor
