Step Out of the Closet and Into Their Nightmares
@bbcradio2bot.bsky.social absolutely just pushing this nonsense about Iran and the nuclear bomb when we KNOW Israel is stockpiling weapons. Good on the stop the war campaigner for calling out this absolute farce and absolutely screw this presenter and the lecturer from Exeter.

With the trailers for both #WalkingWithDinosaurs and #JurassicWorld Rebirth apparently showing swimming Spinosaurus, I thought it might be time to go over why I think these animals were not good swimmers. After all, it's something I've written a fair bit about (with @arctomet.bsky.social) 1/many

The way I so badly wanted to love the new #walkingwithdinosaurs and just... meh. So not what I'd hoped for and lacking so much depth

Huge solidarity with Dylan.

Everyone deserves the right to live peacefully and our LGBTIQA+ community are far too often under attack.

This Labour Party are failing to stand up for basic human rights.

It’s not hyperbolic to say that the proposed disability benefits cuts will cost lives.

This week, I met with young disabled people who are terrified that they will be driven to homelessness and even suicide.

Our government must do the right thing and reverse this policy.

A reminder that when the Sycamore Gap tree was cut down people immediately started blaming immigrants and teenagers...

It was neither. It was two white Englishmen in their 30s.

ICE's parent agency is running out of funds. Any delay - say, by organized parents - that costs them man hours helps drive them into political crisis.

In New York, ICE detained a busload of farmworkers that were actively involved in a union drive.

In Washington state, ICE dragged a farmworkers’ rights activist and leader out of his car to detain him.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

New horrific footage shows that Israel lied through its teeth about its massacre of paramedics and rescue workers.

But still Western media outlets will keep treating Israeli lies as credible.

Great news. Nay, the best news.

Flickr user and all-around hero grafxmangrafxman has uploaded photos of every single fossil and text graphic from the old NMNH fossil halls. Including many that I had failed to document. I'm ecstatic! Thanks Enzo B for the heads up.
