A cardboard Ammonite made by me.

Lots of different cardboard ammonites, made by children with a few of my own thrown in.

I've added a blog to the website all about making 'Ammonites'. I've been based down on Dorset's Jurassic coast for over 20 years now, so I've made a few! 🙂

We are all immigrants. Unless you came over on the Mayflower. I am an immigrant to Canada having grown up in the US. America was built by immigrants. Some people have forgotten that.

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Tbh it's a bit frustrating seeing edutwitter complaining that they 'can't make bluesky work' so they have to stay on twitter (apparently despite the CSAM). You have to actually try to make this place work for you, not post 3 times and only follow 100 people.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Instead of everybody making the same joke about the FIFA Peace Prize, maybe we could boycott the World Cup?

Here's a really easy New Year's Resolution:
If you're sick with something contagious, you will stay home if your circumstances allow.

If you can't stay home, you will mask around others until there is no possibility you are contagious.

By making these choices, you will literally save lives.

You can't name one thing America needs from Russia.
There's a long list of things America needs from Canada.
So why is Trump kissing Putin's ass and picking fights with Canada?
This is why he has bankrupted every business he ever started.

Next year's artists signed contracts to perform at "The Kennedy Center for Performing Arts." Since a venue with that name no longer exists, and one with a very division name many artists would not wish to be associated with does, they should be able to get out of their contracts.

If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

BOCA RATON, Fla. (WKRC) - A man was arrested after he allegedly showed up at a woman's house armed with a gun following a bad dinner date. According to Boca Daily News, 41-year-old Derek Hurwitch was taken into custody on Wednesday, December 17, after he allegedly arrived at a woman's home unannounced and began acting erratically. The report states the incident began when Hurwitch and the woman went out for dinner, where she clarified that the two were "strictly friends," which reportedly caused Hurwitch to become upset. The woman later called police after Hurwitch allegedly arrived at her residence unannounced and began acting erratically, according to Boca Daily News. She told law enforcement that Hurwitch, at some point during the incident, removed a black firearm from his person; however, he did not point the firearm at anyone or make any verbal threats

While speaking with law enforcement, the woman received a phone call from Hurwitch, the outlet reported. When an officer got on the phone to ask questions, Hurwitch reportedly became verbally hostile, using profane and derogatory language toward the officer. He later told police he was willing to speak with them at his home, according to Boca Daily news. According to the station, when officers arrived at Hurwitch's home, he reportedly answered the door before quickly attempting to close it again and allegedly hurled vulgar insults at the officers. As police were leaving the home, Hurwitch allegedly came outside, walked quickly toward them, and got chest-to-chest with one of the officers on scene, per the report. "Hurwitch then grabbed the upper left portion of my department-issued vest with his right hand," the report obtained by Boca Daily News states. Hurwitch was ultimately arrested and charged with the following, according to the outlet's report: Battery on a law enforcement of
