PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Some stunning Jackdaw's visiting us today.....

@thomhetherington.bsky.social Afternoon Thom....any recommendations for a really good lunch / brunch spot around the Tatton park area? Be a group of 8 with a couple of dogs and an 8 month old :-)

All that effort to do that to trans people. How much effort will now be expended by these people in dealing with the gender pay gap, or addressing all those murders of women by actual fucking men? Because it’s about protecting women, right? Right?

@larsklint.bsky.social How are you finding your Luba 2 now a few months after installing Lars?

Mark Zuckerberg’s new house has strong “we won a five year planning battle with Alderley Edge council for permission to demolish the bungalow that used to stand here” vibes.

Labour seems to be throwing everything at foolishly courting Reform votes & rightwing media. This is them declaring war on planet & likely handing Greens votes. Anyone who wants an alternative to gridlock, drivers included, should be appalled. Guessing many Labour politicians & members will be...

My son works for this company here in the U.K. It was playing the video game ‘Deus Ex’ that set him on the path to becoming a Biomechanical Engineer. Sometimes, it’s nice to highlight the good things that video games can do. And also remind myself just how proud of him I am.

Following yesterday's Supreme Court ruling, I wrote to my MP. I'm not the best at conveying the nuances, as a cis man, but I needed to get my views to her as soon as possible. Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️

"Done more deftly"? Jesus fucking Christ. Feel like I have to also repeat, protesting about a genocide by the Israeli state is not antisemitism.

This is so fucked up. ICE agents in Massachusetts smashed the window of a car to grab a Guatemalan guy who was with his wife. They were waiting for their lawyer to arrive because he has a pending asylum case. Story via @wcvb5.bsky.social: www.wcvb.com/article/ice-...

"We're not monsters"

Trump’s tariffs and Brexit red tape are hammering British manufacturers—I saw it firsthand today with @iansollom.bsky.social at a factory making vital components for the car industry. We need to stand up to Trump’s trade war and secure a UK–EU customs union to protect British businesses.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

Message from Mrs C just now.... I love rural living...

I don't really wish to post politics on here but if the current government really thinks its mega majority was scored because we wanted a continuation of Tory policies undertaken by grown-ups, we'd have just voted Tory. Stop trying to appease the USA and govern in the interests of British people.

🌿 The Antarctic Beech: Nature's Southernmost Sentinel 🌿 So, gather 'round, eco-enthusiasts and trivia lovers! Let's talk about the Antarctic Beech, or as I like to call it, the "Tree That Laughs at Cold Weather."

In his final hours, Keith Gavin’s request for a halal final meal was denied by Alabama officials. "I’m a Muslim, I’m supposed to be eating halal food,” he told Bolts shortly before his execution this summer. “There’s nothing else to eat but junk food.” boltsmag.org/alabama...
