Strikingly marked, and sized, spider huddled in corner of our front door. Think it's a female missing sector orb weaver? It's mild out atm but due to get cold again so relocated it to our garage to give it a chance of surviving.

This painting by William Ratcliffe depicts a quintessential scene of a Swedish cottage in winter. Inspired by his great friend, and Camden Town Group founder, Harold Gilman’s visit to Sweden in 1912, Ratcliffe began his own exploration of Scandinavia the following year.

Did u know? Warm winter weather caused by global warming has resulted in huge amounts of rain in the UK. Small souls like ants, worms & beetles will drown in waterlogged soil. To help excess rain drain away quicker avoid compacting the soil by walking on borders, or even your lawn right now. 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🪲🪱

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.
Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.
Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?
