Visited bookshop earlier, the science & lit books all looked so beautiful and it was really pleasant to read the joy & wonder expressed in page or two. Struck me social media has become boring. Think I’m going to switch back, be more offline, just page or two at a time.

In Tasmania, salmon farmers can choose their own level of disclosure about the volume and location of antibiotic treatment. "Which means the public have no verifiable knowledge about whether, or how much, antibiotics have been used." Great piece from @joshuablackjb.bsky.social.
