When a parrot wanted to connect with a distant friend, a touchscreen showed a selection of other birds available online. The parrots learned to activate the screen, designed specially for them, by touching it gently with their tongues rather than pecking aggressively with their beaks.
"We had 26 birds involved," said Hirskyj-Douglas. "They would use the system up to three hours a day, with each call lasting up to five minutes." The interactions ranged from preening and playing with toys to loud vocal exchanges.
"When we went through the data, we found that most of these parrots had favourite friends," said Hirskyj-Douglas.

Share this now to demand this being reversed, because this is not only a threat of our rights to privacy.

But it's also a censorship for all Queer and LGBTQIA+ Content.

If you're from the UK, call your MPs NOW!

We must take action and say no to this tyranny.

The UK is launching โ€˜porn age checksโ€™. This is what will happen The UK is about to launch some of the strongest checks on pornography in the world.

It's not just "porn" sites. As of midnight, any site that allows NSFW is now legally required in the UK to bar visitors unless they present a govt ID, submit to a biometric scan, or otherwise identify themselves.

That means Discord, Bluesky, Reddit, X.

The anonymous internet is now closed.

Hello, can you please share this?

For this censorship is scary and will try to silence and remove all LGBTQIA+ communities and individuals from public life.

Do not obey, share, sign the petition and protest.

Because All LGBTQIA+ Rights are Human Rights.

Stede looks up to see Ed, caught in a shaft of light. She's ethereal; she's so, so real. Her hair already loosened, as is the dress. She doesn't really need his help, but--

"You can have anything you want, darling."
