Just sayin

Chart comparing the number of camera, the number of giant squid footages and the number of bigfoot footages.

Number of giant squids rises as the number of camera increase, but not the number of bigfoot.

The authoritarian crack down on American anti-fascists is deeply worrying to see. It's one of those moments when a fascist leader tells the world who he really is. There must be better ways that European anti-fascists can show our solidarity and offer support.

Terribly sorry (and enraged) for your publisher's collapse (and fuckery) I hope you eventually get the money for the Passion For Passion books (including the one I bought).
I've purchased your audiobook today. I hope others do too.

Scenic phone picture I took of a Sonoran Desert Tortoise last week at sunset! #herps 🐢

A picture of a Sonoran Desert Tortoise on a rocky hillside and the landscape behind it. The Tortoise is on the bottom left side of the picture. The landscape has a hill on the left side and flats in the background and some desert plants including Saguaros and Palo Verdes.

Periodic reminder that when your utility bills go up because of ‘higher costs’ those higher costs are for the protection of CEO and shareholder incomes.

The regulator Ofwat has ruled that 5 private water companies can raise bills by even more than previously agreed

A reminder that despite promising to nationalise the water industry Starmer dumped that pledge &decided to side with the private companies instead. This is the result
