A pod of orcas off the coast of Mexico appears to have learned new skills that help them hunt whale sharks — the world’s largest fish, scientists say.
Researchers found that the pod worked together on four occasions to incapacitate whale sharks and feast on their organs.

In case you missed this yesterday - this project is incredibly important and dear to me. The developer, @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social, is potentially in danger for insisting on making this game, but he refuses to back down because backing down would mean not telling this story.
I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.

I strongly suspect Starmer is testing the water. He has to somehow reverse direction down the blind alley Brexit has led him down. The question is ... is he so far down that there is no turning?
Is Starmer finally blaming Brexit for the UK's ills?
Or is this more blaming the implementation of Brexit?

I am thankful for a social media site that’s not run by disinformation-pushing maniacal billionaire, not controlled by an algorithm design to censor news and much-needed debate, and not overrun by mean-spirited people who encourage and celebrate ignorance. Thankful, indeed.

This is always wrong. Including when it REPEATEDLY happened to each of us who opposed Trump. Including swatting attempts to my house. Including requiring security details.
