Given Ian Fleming was a birder (and the real person named James Bond being an ornithologist) there is a distinct lack of bird themed Bond things honestly
Goldeneye, a type of duck, swimming on a lake
It’s certainly accurate, name another type of bird that got a James Bond movie
J-HARDEN Photo of James Harden holding up a glass of red wine BOTTLE SIGNING WITH JAMES HARDEN Friday, March 6th Speedway 880N Rocky Road Drive, Berea, OH 44017 James Harden Will Only Be Signing Bottles of J-Harden Wines
As someone who grew up in Los Angeles and also had to move to Ohio for work, I have never sympathized with James Harden more
As someone who lived in (the suburbs of) LA for their PhD and now lives in Ohio for work, I get this.
I’ve spent the season checked out and waiting for Burnley to get relegated. Didn’t expect the possibility of you lot going down with us though
I had actually seen an American Kestrel before (though only once, in Argentina), I just never got a picture of one
European Kestrel stood on stone bridge, Dorset, England, 2020
American Kestrel stood on metal pole. Small falcon. Santa Clara, California, 2026
I now have a matching picture for one of my first bird photos. European Kestrel in 2020, American Kestrel in 2026 #birds
39 years ago, there were only 27 California condors in the world. As of 2025, we now have 607, including 392 that are living free in the wild.

Also, what exactly does he think Labour have been doing for the past year?
I never liked football anyway
Why I think, in the current A.I. moment, we should be reading Paul Churchland. #philsky #philsci

She joined the party when she was younger reportedly more as a social club and much of her social life has revolved around it. That obviously leads to an emotional connection to the party that voters don’t have
I think it is but in different ways. The Tories jettisoned much of what made them Tories on the alter of Brexit, potentially killing the party. Labour have decided to not change anything and pretend they’re still in a pre Brexit world, potentially killing the party.
It probably is, I can’t work out why else they’d name him that. But he just never seemed to have the same attachment to Labour that Kemi had to the Tories. He did the classic jump around various left wing organisations, not the “make the party my life” thing
I get it with Kemi, her life has been based around the Conservative Party as a social thing. I just can’t work out why Starmer is so emotionally invested in Labour in the same way
@martamiori.bsky.social and I have been writing, since 2024, about why Labour's 'Reform' challenge and emphasis was based on a misunderstanding of Labour's vote. Here for anyone interested: politicscentre.nuffield.ox.ac.uk/news-and-eve...
Labour have alienated the voters they had on the left, and failed to win over any of the voters they have courted on the right. Now their core appeal is all but gone and ever growing numbers of voters have exit options on the left, right and in the centre.
Welcome to the Valley of Electoral Death.
A 2023 tweet: every european election The People’s Democrats (center-right) 31 per cent Soviet Worker’s Party (center/center-left) 22 per cent Citizen’s Forum (fascist) 19% Wow! (Center) 11 per cent Friendship is Magic (left) - nine per cent Green Partt - eight per cent
This remains a good, tongue in cheek guide, though the centre-right is doing worse across the board than it was then, while the Greens are taking the “Friendship is Magic” vote in addition to their traditional core.
I did notice that someone from the group almost certainly wrote the very short page for Family Voting. 1/3rd of the page is just talking about how they discovered it
Indeed. Part of what is beautiful about so many metro systems is also what makes them sad: that they often represent a very brief moment of municipalities having money, ambition and power that vanished like breath on a mirror.
For some reason when Wayne Rooney eventually passes away in a good few decades I now want his skeleton preserved in a natural history museum next to some prehistoric reptile as a size comparison
I'm always curious how well leaflets against other parties in that parties colours actually work. Do they make people who might support that party read it, or do people pay so little attention to these that they see the colour, the party name and picture of the leader and assume it's pro that party
Some BART stations have a similar aesthetic (albeit worse than DC) and I love it, combined with weirdly retro futuristic looking trains
I love DC Metro stations because they make me feel like I’m taking a train in an underground version of the 8th wonder of the world, Preston Bus Station
The amount of people that seem to be claiming that people with mental illnesses basically shouldn't go outside at all has disgusted me
Tourette’s discourse shows the poverty of ‘mental health awareness’. We’ve successfully argued depression isn’t an attitude problem and people can’t just toughen up, but people can’t generalise the principle to other mental illnesses and disabilities.
I never liked rugby union anyway
Congrats to BART rider and Oakland legend Alysa Liu on winning a gold medal at the Olympics and making the Bay Area proud!
These two look very much like a 1990s comedy sketch series
