Fieldfare, Sleddale, North York Moors. Large flock of these wintering thrushes still hanging on this morning, joined by a resident mistle thrush. Not long now before they depart, taking those striking plumages with them. #birds @nymnptrust.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social

🚨 BREAKING: Thames Water dumped RAW SEWAGE into Englands waterways for 300,000 HOURS last year.

That's a 50% increase on sewage dumping than the year before. This is OUTRAGEOUS - the government must take action and STOP sewage dumping.

And there's likely nowhere else on Earth with greater need. Let's make this happen. 🌍

People Get Ready Even though large tracts of America and many old and famous red States have fallen or may fall into the grip of DOGE-MAGA and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall...

We live in what has been an exceptionally stable country, but it's just been destabilized. In that instability is possibility--not to return to the world of January 19th, 2025, but to something other than this rampage of hate and destruction, this oligarchs against everything coup. If we seize it.
