Did the PR team sign off on that line or...?

Craig Bennett, the chief executive of The Wildlife Trusts, quoted as saying "we need to make Britain wet again" in the Guardian article 'Half a million trees to be planted in England in three years, says government'. He's talking about wetlands in case you were wondering.

Maybe the most figures I've painted on a single piece? Something a little fantastical for this bowl!

Bowl featuring a lake reflecting a starry sky and hills and cliffs with waterfalls surround it. A group of figures gather at the shore to admire the stars.

As far as I can understand the situation is currently that creators make the content that engages people on YT for the PROSPECT of income, corps then claim that content unfairly, stuff it full of ads and STEAL THE MONEY from TRANSFORMATIVE work. Oh yeah and its also being hoovered up for AI training

Got into Behind the Bastards and @iwriteok.bsky.social has mentioned Kissinger so many times across episodes I feel like today is the day to find out about him. My English brain is entirely clean of foreknowledge on this subject. Don't even know what specific job he did. So this should be fun(?)

Reading this crystallised why the below worried me. JK's contention has always been that she ✨️supports trans ppl✨️ - she simply wants to preserve "female" as a legally relevant sex category etc etc. We can't let apparent tolerance throw a cloak over the relentless bigotry inherent to her cause

JK Rowling X post reading: "It doesn't remotely infuriate me. I've always believed adults with intractable gender dysphoria may only find peace after surgery and taking hormones. I'm glad you're happy."

You know, I've never had a hardback book with sprayed edges, never troubled the Sunday Times Bestseller list, never been chosen for a celebrity book club or won a Shirley Jackson or British Fantasy Award, but I'm bloody proud of these folk horror novels and thank you to everyone who's read them.

The tragedy of not having more TV productions about fairies is that one does not see costumes like this nearly enough.

After some unexpected if indirect insight, I have come to learn the prison system is broken in deeply unfair and unjustifiable ways that the public generally doesn't even have an inkling of. It's an absolute mess.

With series three on the horizon I feel like it would have been cool if Rings Of Power did a 80s fantasy x John Howe aesthetic to get across the weirder/more fantastical elements. Imagine that uber budget with PRACTICAL EFFECTS 🥲

It's somewhat crazy to me that we're not already seeing more on-the-ground government jobs in conservation, water infrastructure and environmental protection. I remember reading a long time ago about what FDR did in the dustbowl and 100 years later we're facing worse with zero response

I sometimes think about this because women tend to casually compliment each other as an animal signal of friendliness. So "I like your top" = hairless lady ape code for "I mean you well". And men generally miss out on that, even if they may get more praise for work and skills

One of the things I enjoy about UK Reddit is as soon as someone asks a household budgeting question, thousands of teetotal ascetics turn up to describe how they all feed their family for £17 a week and never touch a takeaway, when I've literally never met anyone who does this in my entire life

An insight into "the system"- I know someone who has a job via an access to work scheme. They're thriving but need lots of support (the kind a profit-driven employer would not provide). The benefits people tried to use this job status to reduce their income, causing huge stress to them & their carer

It kills me how prompt artists love to bring up how many iterations it takes bc they cant edit or make minor changes to a single image or even like plan things out ahead of time compositionally.
