Seems the difference between ‘protestors’ and ‘terrorists’ is that protestors wear balaclavas while terrorists hold placards.

67 horses have died at the Aintree Festival since 2000. 17 after racing in the Grand National. This isn’t sport, it’s a death toll. We’re calling for a boycott. Don’t attend. Don’t bet. Switch off. It’s time to put horse welfare before profit.

#maddow Science break. This kayaker gets approached by an otter every time he visits a lake. The otter was orphaned after the mother was in an accident, and the man helped it throughout it's rehabilitation process to later release it back into the wild. Volume up.🔊

Here’s a poem for Earth Day. It’s called ‘Birdsong’.
Birdsong
 
There is a bird who sings to me,
each morning from the old lime tree.
I wonder what he’s trying to say?
Stop fucking up. It’s not too late.
 
It’s such a happy, joyous sound!
Little bird who chirps so loud
And brightens up my day with song.
Stop standing there. You’ve not got long.
 
I wish I could translate your words,
my faithful, a cappella bird,
who sits upon the lime tree bough.
And still you wait. You must act now.
 
All’s quiet in the tree today.
I think perhaps he’s moved away.
There’s silence these days everywhere,
the ghost of birdsong in the air.

The Artemis III manned moon landing is scheduled for ~3 years time and relies on Spaceship HLS, which is carried by Starship. NASA is in a hole with this. Starship government funding is unlikely to be affected by current DOGE cuts!

I’m no way an expert, but if problems are as fundamental as the article suggests then NASA 2027 target seems very optimistic. In fact the article implies that SpaceX will have to choose between a viable payload and full reusability which means starting again.

I read a lot of Tanith Lee as I grew up. That may well have contributed to me being the open-minded person I like to think I am. A battered copy of Drinking Sapphire Wine is still on my shelf.

Afghanistan as a nation gets huge prestige from playing cricket, particularly as it’s their most popular sport. To validate their regime in this way is just wrong.

Agreed, with Elder being a bit fragile and Bradley gone, it leaves Fozzy as key backup in 2 positions. But still not priority.

I seem to have upset the Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. RT if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Farage getting paid £1.5m for I'm a celebrity. Don't watch it, don't send them money in phone votes, don't reward the advertisers, and fuck Ant and Dec for platforming him, no matter how many oh so edgy winks to camera and cutting remarks they make.
