Canadian Visits To U.S. Fell By Double Digits In February Canadians have increasingly bypassed U.S. travel for more than a year, and the boycott shows no sign of slowing down.

Thirteen months into a travel boycott of the U.S., the number of Canadian visitors slid by double digits again in February—marking what is already the most successful tourism boycott in memory.

This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?

Our new paper, led by Siobhan Murray (w Rose Meleady) is for you!

Cafeteria allowed menu boards with & without animal images

Odds of choosing vegetarian meals rose 22% if animal image present.

Raccoons solve puzzles for the fun of it, new study finds They raid compost bins, outsmart latches and sometimes look gleeful doing it. A new study in Animal Behaviour suggests raccoons may not just be opportunistic—they may be genuinely curious.

What pet cats can tell us about human cancer A new study isolated DNA from the tumours of 500 cats across 13 different tumour types and mapped the sequence of 1,000 genes often found mutated in human cancers.

"...cat cancers frequently develop spontaneously in the same environment as humans. They also often have many of the same underlying or co-occurring medical conditions as humans, such as obesity, autoimmune diseases, kidney disease, diabetes..." theconversation.com/what-pet-cat...

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El Niño

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

I love orangutans and it absolutely terrifies me that we are so close to losing them! #Primates

Congratulations! I can't wait to read it :)

People who've adopted an extremely shy cat who lived too long in a shelter, know the joy of seeing full trust and relaxation! Happy #Caturday!

Very cool to see the cover revealed today for @keithkahnharris.bsky.social’s THE BEAUTIFUL DEATH OF OZZY OSBOURNE: HOW METAL TEACHES US TO LIVE, a book I commissioned last year when in-house at HarperNorth. It’s an exhilarating read for both Ozzy- and Sabbath-heads, and the metal-curious:

With every new development in this story I am even more gobsmacked that Epstein and his co-conspirators escaped accountability over and over and over again. There's more to come from my investigation. Stay tuned.

Middle East crisis live: Israel bombs Tehran and Beirut as Trump says no deal with Iran ‘except unconditional surrender’ Israel launched huge attacks on Iran and Lebanon overnight

I *really* dislike the deployment of World War II, USA on Japan rhetoric, here, for reasons obvious (nukes, maximalist, not helpful) & otherwise.

Esp given USA did not in fact demand unconditional surrender (as indicated by Potsdam Declaration “Here are our terms…” & Byrnes note”).
