I'm blasting my way through season 1, this is so good I love all the characters! Dr Mel King my beloved 😭🩷

Thank you so much! I will be making his eyes out of clay and a banjo out of spun cotton! I might grab a branch to double as a log he can sit on

Thank you! He's real and i can hold him aaaahhh

Thank you for resharing, Eoghan.

Your comments about recognising how large herbivore absence has left ecological gaps in ecosystems and hopefully deciding to do something about it are spot on.

The Rapture is also almost exclusive to US Evangelicalism, which should come as no surprise. Once again, I highly recommend Bart Ehrman's Armageddon.

The rapture is not in the Bible.

The rapture is not present in Christianity before the 19th century.

The rapture makes for dangerous theology and foreign policy.

The rapture needs to become a resoundingly opposed sentiment.

arrgghhhh yes wow some of it is this good you are very enticed to listen to more and buy

Omg i forgot about him! Blast from the past

whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same #wutheringheights

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

The beginnings of a Kermit the frog needle felt sculpture

I’ve started the next thing and I thought it’d be simple but getting a nice expression with the mouth was hard!

I’ve been working on this guy on and off for years (due to various reasons) but he’s nearly there now!

Episode 19 of season 1 is exceptional television, holy shit (but also, extremely harrowing)

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

Studied Romeo & Juliet and Macbeth in school, so they were my introduction and I still love them both. In recent years I've loved The Tempest! I saw it twice at the Globe and I have a print of Waterhouse's painting "Miranda-The Tempest" above my bed

Picture of a Washington Post article with a sun shining over Iran barely visible through clouds of smoke with the caption “The U.S. military used the most advanced AI in warfare yet to strike Iran. Below this is a post from account The Shire-Reckonjng reading Théoden answers Saruman. ‘Even if your war on my was just—as it was not, for were you ten times as wise, you would have no right to rule me and mine for your own profit as you desired—even so, what will you say of your torches in the Westfield and the children that lie dead there?’

Too real of a post conjunction of Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and war, bluesky

Is spring on the way? 🌼 #sciart

Lion King mentioned in 2 separate epsiodes, man 1994 is so long ago

It's s1 and I've cried several times already...this does not bode well for me

My country is being destroyed in front of my eyes by the West’s favourite genocidal state and I’m supposed to act as though these sociopaths want to have peace.

There can be no peace in the fucking Middle East and I promise you that if Israel is not stopped the horrors will reach the West

never pre-ordered so fast.

Our culture stunts grief, one of the most important processes of life, and it shows. Embrace the fullness of life, which includes death and loss. no, knowing the '7 stages of grief' is not enough.

Another day, another reminder that letting your cat outside without supervision is animal cruelty. Additionally, you're contributing to the extinction of small wildlife species.

These are the scenes at Mercure Nottingham City Centre Hotel. Sickening use of deadly bird netting that ends up with birds trapped and starving to death. Police have been contacted.

Please sign the petition calling on the hotel to end the use of netting: protectthewild.org.uk/mercure-hote...

On Saturday we made history ✊

@pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social led the largest-ever AI protest march hit London, demanding an end to the rapid, unregulated rollout of AI by governments and Big Tech

stores have no idea how much shoplifting takes place, they only know when stock doesn't match records. how much is due to human error, incorrect shipments, breakage, and theft is a guess. literally cannot know if shoplifting is on the rise.

this was a radicalizing discovery for me.

Let's hope that Trump's war of aggression achieves what he/his fossil fuel lobby doesn't want but is needed to save life on Earth: a much faster switch to renewables, and not just in the UK.
