The #Conservatives really fucking hate trees eh? As for that Andrew Griffith character, a truly wretched twat and presumably just one scandal away from a defection to #ReformUK. #CPC26

I like my wee local circular, always see something. This is what I saw today.

Looking up into a tree canopy, a distinctive line of crown shyness can be seen separating the tree canopies and forming an upside down Y shape.

I didn't financially ruin myself renovating my deck for the benefit of the cat but naturally I'm glad she approves.

Would be remiss not to flag the 'left is responsible for the climate culture wars' and 'an ideology that eschews ideologies is still an ideology', parts.

I had a similar encounter the other day, walked past the next day and it hadn't fared well. Was glad to meet it when I did.

This tournament has been fuelled by Belhaven Black, entirely heatwave inappropriate, yet eminently drinkable and extremely competitively priced at Lidl.

First afternoon on the new deck. First afternoon trying to think of ways to integrate shade into the new deck. Otherwise, delighted.

☝️ Shot. 👇 Chaser. Compliments to @righttoroam.bsky.social and all for #OurLand, fantastic watch, particularly after a privileged day connecting with nature (though not the privilege of certain characters in the film, natch).

Love this photo from The Mill's Manchester coverage; compare and contrast with whatever the collective noun of Reform councillors is.

Today we visited the FLATLANDS for a walk. The sky was LARGE and UNCOMPROMISING. Nobody was shot and the kids concluded that the hills are more interesting. We briefly listened to two treecreepers shouting at each other.

Reflecting on what #Iran's impressive meme game should tell us about the importance of public support for wars. It occurs that the terminally online public is the best source of amusing content to counter opponents but if you've not brought them along with you, you're fucked. Sad Hegseth.

Loving modern best bitters right now. These two in particular. 5%+ IPAs can be hard going, particularly midweek. These, on the other hand, are delicious, rich and easy going, with great depth of caramel flavours. Brilliant work Verdant and Nightjar. #BskyBeer

A takeover attempt by an academy chain whose values do not reflect that of our local schools has just been sent packing by our community. Its pissy strop letter is quite something for a CoE academy chain, really proud of the teachers for doing what was best for the kids and pushing back.

Text reads: Despite this, on Monday 19th January, the CEO of the Trust (alongside two other Trinity staff and
representatives of PALT) attended meetings with PALT staff. One meeting was devoted predominantly to primary staff, the other to staff at The Calder Learning Trust (TCLT). After the
