1. Make a recent convict the star guest of your annual conference, despite her conviction being about calling for a group of people to be murdered. 'Just hurty words/free speech'. 2. Then getting [rightly] very upset when someone wants to murder you. Yes, it's the latest 'Hurty Words Update'.

the moon is eating the sun and if we want the sun to return we should probably sacrifice a national leader to the bog or something

The Wülferhampton Clarion carries an alarming report that the Trump administration intends to annex the city, citing its vast reserves of slag. A spokesman said: “The Saxons have done a poor job of investment in the city, preferring to spend tax revenues on top table dinners for the elite.”

Following on from my post below... My grandson mentions that, in the past, German woodsmen would train male bullfinches to whistle tunes. If you haven't heard this before, prepare to be utterly AMAZED by the bullfinch's ability to sing a tune so perfectly! #birds www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

The water in your body is just visiting. It was a thunderstorm a week ago. It will be the ocean soon enough. Most of your cells come and go like morning dew. We are more weather pattern than stone monument. Sunlight on mist. Summer lightning. Your choices outweigh your substance. #poetry

The Thames has also been adopted by many other faiths/cultures too. Mudlarks tend to leave the offerings alone unless plastic or broken (eg glass) so they need to be cleared.

This walking stick with skull pommel and emerald green eyes once belonged to Charles Darwin. Yep, you read that right! I bet you didn't know Darwin was such a dude. It's now part of the Wellcome Collection in London, and I think you'll agree it's pretty amazing.

A long walking stick. On the top is a skull with emerald green eyes and a wicked grin.

An important tip, from naturalist Stephen Barlow: Stephen noticed that visiting winter thrushes are most attracted to half-eaten apples. Cutting them in half makes them look like this, and indeed the thrushes prefer the half-eaten apples he puts out to the whole ones! 🍎 #nature #winter #birds 🪶

A dark bird with iridescent blue and purple feathers stands on the edge of a bird feeder, looking directly towards that camera with wings spread. This pose makes it look rather intimidating and like a vampire

It would be so great if you could RT my Etsy shop in the twoots below/above. My🌲 jewellery orders usually make up a significant part of my income at this time of yr but the X exodus has meant I’ve only received 1 order-pretty scary income-wise. A small boost would help so much. Thankyou🌿
