I know plenty of people who do not believe in God who also serve others. So I would say, we will know good people by their good deeds.

Impressions of Istanbul

Rain drips on the marble threshold,  and laughing doves ripple the air.  

Muezzins interrupt the coffee-shop chatter, regulating even us infidels before the dogs' rebuke. Their howls and yips persist long after the call to prayer ends with an electronic beep.

Strong coffee grounds my butterflies while beneath our catamaran, the Marmara Sea flashes like crystal in an Istanbul palace. 

We will return, but for now the green hills of the Bosphorus  are replaced by the scorched Dardenelles and Turkiye has just begun.

I've been gathering life for a few months now. Here's my first poem for a long time.

No evidence of farmer's missing Shetland ponies found in eagle nests Five Shetland pony foals disappeared from a farm in South Uist between May and June, with the owner raising concerns that the birds of prey could be responsible.

Will this satisfy the crofters and farmers? There were no lamb or Shetland foal bones in the nests. No evidence at all that the sea eagles have taken livestock.

Amazing how humans think they have the right to demand the removal of a species.

As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs -- and their owners -- becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in a nationally representative sanple of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism

Obviously rabies vaccines don't cause doggy autism, but also, and I mean this in the most complimentary way possible: dogs are already pretty autistic

Like oh no will my dog hyperfixate on a toy? Will he become upset when his routine is disrupted? What if he gets agitated by loud noises or crowds?!

What a frightening and unforgivable state of affairs. Never will I support Keir Starmer's Labour party again. The government needs to act now to correct this stupid situation.

Probe launched after 'sea eagles' linked to disappearance of Shetland pony foals Farmers hope an investigation by wildlife agency NatureScot will tell them if sea eagles are behind the disappearance of five Shetland pony foals…

So crofters, who offer pony interaction as a tourist attraction, are calling for a cull of sea eagles if they are proven to be the culprits.

Which is the biggest tourist draw? Sea eagles or ponies?

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

This rise of Fascism throughout the world will end, it must end, and those who did not stand up and speak or act against it will face the reckoning. Well done Evie, for continuing to call it out.

How can money help you?

Gaza is starving because aid is not getting in. This is not about money.

I am glad to see your children and you look very clean and healthy. I don't actually think you are in Gaza.

Shame on you for trying to scam people. πŸ˜•

The world can see multiple news reports from unbiased journalists. Even Trump admitted that people are starving. Why do you not believe it? Would you be open to believing that Hamas or any other "interceptor" would simply be shot? IDF are in complete control

Yes, I hold strong opinions & call things out. Not out of bitterness. I criticise practices, not people. I reject complicity. What I will always do is amplify individuals with care, craft, & conscience. That’s the line I walk & I walk it on purpose. We need better. I believe we can build it.

You argued that this photo is not relevant because it is not actually of a child and mother in Gaza. The photo is an image of starvation. The crime is the deliberate starvation of the surviving population of Gaza. Netanyahu and those who excuse him, are irredeemable.
