Thanks to @seashepherdglobal.bsky.social for the Allankay open day in Wellington. We learned about krill fishing, which starves Antarctic wildlife of its main food resource. Often found in pet food, farmed salmon and omega 3 capsules, so please check before you buy!

Dear World, is it too much to ask that the men in charge of the largest countries on Earth stop their ridiculous dick swinging pissing contest and GROW UP? Bunch of fecking children.

This is bordering on comedy. What a bunch of whinging babies! "Trump is getting frustrated". Mission accomplished. This Waltz guy is a real putz. What are you gonna do next, tell Zelenskyy's mum he's being mean to you?

This is a great article. One good bit for non-Americans: check your retirement mutual funds or personal investment funds for e.g. Tesla stocks. Change your fund and/or give the fund managers an earful about their toxic investment choices. The regime are businessmen. Hit them where it hurts.

Oh nothing to see here — just the United States of America aligning itself with Russia and against Europe. This is fine. Totally fine.

NZ's coalition govt is embarrassingly riding the coat tails of their American idols by trying to stop MPs calling the country Aotearoa in parliament. Te reo Māori is an official language and can be used in the house. Here's some more te reo they can shake their fists at: ūpoko kohua!

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Eyes open for this one, people. The Supreme Court is about to enter the battle. If they don't find their spines in a hurry, the autocratic dictatorship will be official.

If Mitch McConnell was actually serious about rediscovering his integrity he should switch to being an independent. Yes, R's would still have the majority but it would send a message to the voter base and piss off Trump. What does he have to lose at this stage?

I'm getting WAY too invested in another country's problems but THIS is the rant the world has been waiting for. A thing of beauty.

Absolutely incredible, fascinating research on the gender divide - globally, big data - and a brilliant Substack digest from @draliceevans.bsky.social: “global analysis reveals that cross-gender friendships remain rare in societies where male honour depends on female seclusion.”

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

"In the meantime, I would own this", Trump said of Gaza. Note "I", not "the USA". Obviously neither is acceptable, but he's not even trying anymore. Just bring out the fluffy white cat for him to stroke already.

It's the best explanation I've seen so far, although of the pair, Trump looks the most recently exhumed.

Headlines matter, Guardian! Gaming, mirages? Sounds more like ICE are flat out manipulating and lying to make old deportations sound recent. ICE is obfuscating. Don't help them out with weird buzzword headlines.

Some archaeology for Black History Month: George McJunkin discovered the Folsom site in New Mexico in 1908, the first where projectile points were found in association with bones of extinct bison, proving the presence of humans in the Americas over 11,000 years ago. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_...
