Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 8h*ie: getting enough food for them and her will get more and more difficult as they get older, as well as keeping all of them safe. Which makes me wonder if the amount of food available (body fat, etc) directly relates to how many cubs a cheetah will have. 000
Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 8hA cheetah's cubs are having their privacy violated 24/7 in a good scientific zoo in Virginia. What is interesting is just how many cubs there are. In the wild, they're considered lucky with 2 cubs and unlucky with 3* from early childhood.

Will she watch them? No. Will she watch horrifically bad American gameshows? 🙄 010

Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 12hThat is interesting. I was sure I heard it in a Hitchcock, and I've always struggled to think which one, so the hop skip and jump including Bernard Herrmann makes sense. 010

Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 15hYou can imagine the state of the famine history in English schools! It's easy to forget that the actual English kids get fuck all. Which makes me think my own kids might not know as much as they should. 130

Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Mother of God! Being in London and surrounded by comedy people in tge 1990's, there was zero tit squeezing that I ever saw or had done. I think the Brits really got the 'new wave' message. That's not to say there wasn't sexism, because there definitely was, particularly with the bookers at clubs. 130

Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 12/10/2026But how many would end up with "Do you see?" written underneath :) (Deary me can you imagine.)

Captain Hurley 🇺🇦 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️🇪🇺 @zoonie.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I'm not so sure. I'd rather be seen as fallible than perfect. As you say, it's easy enough to attach a "Doh, I'm an idiot", or "I screwed up here, my apologies". You can not control what other people do, but there's clear evidence there that you're not a dick. 100
