When the latest American military are stationed here sooo many have "I couldn't understand them!!" stories about calls for their utilities/local bank/grocery delivery etc. They're almost inevitably the big companies with Scottish call centres ;)

Discworld QOTD, from Snuff “… you were so worried about legal and illegal that you never stopped to think about whether it was right or wrong.”

Just generally cool, and because I went poking around due to curiosity about the Native American imagery (was it due to the US Army?) and found a really interesting and detailed discussion, sharing it: law.marquette.edu/facultyblog/...

An old bookmark just fell out during a cleaning! Flashback to the worst flight I've ever been on..Battered old L-1011, packed full, duffels in the aisle/seatwells, bad air-con, cargo the wrong way around so they had to unload and reload everything at Lajes ;)

Honoured to be invited to speak with Ross and Ryan from the @historyonfilm.bsky.social podcast about Victory Through Air Power (1943), Strategic Air Command (1955), The Starfighters (1963?), and Top Gun (1986) and what those movies tell us about the evolution of air power during the Cold War!

Last week we released 18 #takahe to start a new population in the Rees Valley, near Queenstown, NZ. There will be challenges, but it's an exciting step towards establishing self-sustaining wild populations, and a great example of collaborative #conservation. www.doc.govt.nz/news/media-r...

When restless I listen to the World Service news in the night. Now petitioning the BBC to bring back that thing where they used to have a voice actor dub the statements of Sinn Féin instead of using their actual voices. There are a couple of Americans whose voices I would gladly never hear again.

Y'know, we JUST got done with outreach marketing about how cool it was that everyone had full free digital access to The Economist (& NYT) via their library credentials and now...time to go shred the remaining leaflets, I guess.

I listen to a lot of BBC Radio4 & the World Service (generally pretty OK radio!), but not often do I hear an interview/foundations brief as eloquent, educational, & accessible as Dr. Julie Klinger from Uni Delaware on Ukraine & its geological resources. Clear & concise. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
