You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

A view of the International Space Station floating in the stars above the earth. A cat in a space suit floats outside. An astronaut within the station looks out of a window and says "In? But I just let you out."

I do have to question how @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social can claim she believes trans people should be treated with “dignity and respect”, seconds before saying she would ban trans women victims experiencing rape or abuse from shelters. It’s just so fucking blatantly dishonest and bigoted.

Raqefet Cave in Israel was a sacred burial site for the hunter-gatherer culture known as the 'Natufians' around 13,000 years ago. More recently, we've also discovered here the earliest evidence of BEER BREWING from grains. Even more remarkable because these people HADN'T INVENTED AGRICULTURE YET.

In 1926, an entire family in Berlin were killed when a seal ruptured in their refrigerator, releasing toxic gas in the enclosed space. Two local men decided to use their considerable powers of intellect to make refrigerators safer. Let's talk about the time Albert Einstein invented a refrigerator.
A man in a suit demonstrates a modern electrical refrigerator to a woman in a 1930's dress and hat, in what appears to be a showcase of an appliance store.

FYI I’ve made a complaint to the BBC about this article, I encourage you to do the same. The article is factually incorrect as the case does not involve Dr Upton, as such there’s little justification for rehashing the whole Tribunal history & describe Dr Upton as anything other than a Trans woman.
Factual error or inaccuracy

 Article incorrectly describes the case
 Up to 50 characters. Please complain within 30 working days of the issue.

 This case is between Peggie and her nursing union, Dr Beth Upton is in no way involved in this
 case. This is factually incorrect attribution of the respondents.
 Dr Upton was completely exonerated by the Tribunal and she should not be attributed as being
 part of this case, as such there is little justification in rehashing the previous Tribunal timeline or
 using a derogatory description of Dr Beth Upton a Trans woman as a biological male who
 identifies as a woman'.
 This phrase may be in your style guide but given Dr Upton is only tangentially involved should
 not be used in this report.

The BBC at it again reporting on the Peggie case against her Nursing Union. Dr Beth Upton isn’t part of this case & was complete exonerated by the Tribunal. ‘This is the second employment tribunal Peggie has brought over the dispute with Dr Beth Upton, a biological male who identifies as a woman.’

Wide shot of the BRITISH MUSEUM. There are suggestions of fascism around the streets - tanks, barricades, an Orwellian 'Big Brother'-style poster on a wall. A voice of a TOUR GUIDE emanates from the museum:

TOUR GUIDE:
So the Tapestry tells acrucial chapter of our nation's history...

[Cut to interior of museum. A long Bayeaux-style TAPESTRY is on display, and the Tour Guide is speaking to a tour group]

TOUR GUIDE [smiling]:
How modern fascist Britain was created.

CHILD:
...About the failure of capitalism?

TOUR GUIDE:
No about brown people on boats

8
CHILD:
[pointing at boats crossing the sea on the tapestry]
Are these boats the mega-dinghies?

TOUR GUIDE:
Not all of them

9
[we see one of the boats  is a giant yacht]
TOUR GUIDE:
That one's a superyacht,
carrying money from the American fascists to the British ones.

10
TOUR GUIDE:
You see really it's as much a story of convergence as it is of conflict.

[An alarm sounds in the museum]
DING DING DING DING

TOUR GUIDE:
Ok, tour over everyone

TOUR GUIDE:
It's time for the Two Minute Hate!
