It’s #Deaf awareness month & everyone should be aware of Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss & the need for URGENT treatment. 🚨🚨🚨 This post might save someone’s hearing-previous posts have. I never usually ask, but please repost.
‼️YOUR REGULAR SUDDEN HEARING LOSS REMINDER‼️ 3 years ago today, I woke up with zero hearing in my left ear. I was one of the 1000 people a year in Ireland who develop sudden hearing loss. (~70,000 in the US)

I had an invertebrate zoology professor in undergrad who called chaetognaths “the great white shark of the plankton.”
WOW.. Photographer David Fleetham captured this stunning shot of an arrow worm or chaetognath in the process of devouring a larval fish! From Yap, Micronesia, his website www.davidfleetham.com #wormwednesday

It's the 1st of September - the start of meteorological autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. Sunset in #Orkney today is at 8.14pm. That's 2 hours and 14 minutes earlier than at midsummer.
By December, sunset in Orkney will be as early as 3.14pm. 💡

In the early hours of 1 September 1939, Germany's Luftwaffe started bombarding the Polish town of Wieluń. The attack is considered to be the first war crime committed by Nazi Germany in World War II. Bombs destroyed ca. 70 percent of the town's buildings.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

This is what happens if you map the latitude of European cities onto North America & vice versa.
Some realizations:
Most European cities are north of the US-Canadian border.
London shares latitudes with an Alaskan island chain.
Houston is further south than Cairo.

The more I think about Kathy Sheridan’s piece on cyclists’ behaviour, the more upset I become.
With so many injuries and deaths caused by motor vehicles, portraying cyclists as the threat is baffling.

Tied hands, mutilated genitals, ropes on necks.
Izium surrendered in 2022 — remember that when told “just surrender to avoid casualties.”
