6 episodes into an 8 episode season, we realised we started watching season 2 instead of 1. Their is going to be one hell of a prequel to this story

Now that the #BM100 are finished, does anybody have some ideas on how to fill a weekends time at the end of March/beginning of April. I had a gap open up in the calendar.

The 2026 Barkley Marathons is over. There are no finishers. #BM100

Welp, the early start has messed me up! Seems like I’ve missed a whole lot and not a lot of runners left. #BM100 even playing games with the people at home

Stop the EU’s Ban on “Meaty” Words for Plant-Based Foods Sign now

Consumers aren't dumb or confused about the terms vegan burger or tofu sausage! Help put a stop to this ridiculous ban!

Here’s a pic of my leopard gecko, Odda. Just because she’s insanely cute and a hell of a lot better to look at than all the news that’s been coming out these last days!

Someone's pet cat with the native wild red squirrel it just killed.

Most cat owners have no idea of, or don't want to know, how much wildlife is slaughtered annually by domestic or feral cats. But it runs to 10s, possibly 100s, of BILLIONS of animals per year, and is a serious driver of extinction.

Sure glad I woke up in a country that at least still appears to have freedom of speech…
The 2025 bingo card is going wild

Bottom trawling to continue in English protected waters, government rules Defra says blanket ban on ‘destructive’ fishing practice disproportionate as MPs urge minister to reconsider

This is infuriating. What is the point of a Marine Protected Area if trawlers are allowed to keep ploughing it?
Yet again, the government has succumbed to commercial lobbying.

When learning about the holocaust in school, I always wondered how this could happen and why the world would even let it happen. Yet, here we are…

105 down. 5 yards to WR!!

1. There has been a major effort by that old combination – big business and the far right – to diss foods derived from plants. The meat lobby invests big time in misinformation. And the far right hates “soyboys”, while associating itself with red meat-eating. It's a match made in hell. 🧵

This night I dreamed that I was running the ArizonaMonster300, I spent 30min in the fist aid station (which was only 600m from the start line). When I starter running again, I was last and there was a massive headwind (only for me) that made it impossible to make any progress. What could it mean?

Well, well, well… if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions

Hi @bsky.app is there like an increase in bot accounts or…? Because a random reply from a month ago keeps getting liked and I know for a fact it’s not that interesting or funny

The only kind of sea-bed bottom trawling that should be allowed. 😀

Can any British #ecologists please recommend a/ a few small wild grass species for a green roof in West Yorkshire? It's a free draining shallow substrate, one half in sun, one half in mostly shade. I'd like to include some wild grasses or sedges but I'm worried about their survival.

Already a proper edited video on this year's Barkley! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezjz... #BM100

Side profile of an Alpine newt on gravel path with shrubs in the distance

On todays run I saw an alpine newt. He was on the middle of a gravel patch so after the pic I moved him to the nearby grass. My day always get better seeing these guys running around, definitely after seeing 3 toads run over, but let’s focus on the positive

Thanks for the info! Will give it a try

The mayhem in question

Some hills in Flanders and absolute frog mayhem. It’s getting warmer and the amphibians are aware

I had an account but I only went on there around Barkley time. The rest of the time I lurked a bit or just did not use it. It’s good that it’s better over here 😉

Anybody want/can to give me a crash course on what bsky is/does? I got on here because of #bm100 but kind of want to stay. I’ve already followed the starterpack #ultrarunning as that’s what I’m interested in but anything outdoorsy goes
I dabble a bit in (trail)running, but nothing too far atm

John Kelly sonne le clairon lui-même pour annoncer la fin de sa course et de la Barkley.
