One key problem with the claim that Ocean Ramsey is saving sharks by convincing people that they're not dangerous is "people wrongly thinking sharks are dangerous" is not the reason why sharks are threatened.

Personally, I prefer to solve conservation problems based on evidence, data, and reality.

If any survivors of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 are reading this, please DM me.

Rabies is no joke.
It is a deadly virus that is 100% fatal if you get symptoms in both dogs and people. There is no cure beyond a tiny fraction of people and animals that survive it- but it rounds up to 100% fatal.

LOL! Local youths in the park are trying to trick gullible passers-by into paying a €2 fee to sit on the bench 😂😂 Hope no-one's stupid enough to fall for it. It's much more cost-effective to purchase their €25 monthly bench ticket like I did.

Photo taken today: View of a dry section of Lake Constance during a spring drought, with visible lakebed stretching into the distance under a partly cloudy sky. In the foreground, ivy-covered stone ruins and green shrubs frame a lush weeping willow tree standing on a grassy patch where water would normally be. A branch with fresh spring leaves hangs from above, adding depth to the scene.

There's usually water....
This year's unusually dry spring is affecting Lake Constance....

More and more it occurs to me that the entire Yellowstone universe is really about white fools stealing land from the Natives and being cursed to be tortured for it for generations. It makes them all vicious and miserable and sucks the joy from their lives.

The Yellowstone is a hellmouth.

Tech tip for people who are not as good at computers as me:

A great way to organise your files is by storing them in "folders". And the most useful part is that computers are so advanced nowadays that they automatically number your folders so that you can easily tell them apart 👍

The leaders of all of the federal parties in Canada accidentally added me to their group chat

Only 6.6% of countries are full democracies. Canada is one of them.

That's something to be proud of. Something worth fighting for.

*Data comes from a division of The Economist. The report is interesting reading if you're worried about the state of modern politics.

Ladder Ham Climb the ladder and claim the ham! [Picture of a family underneath a stepladder which has a ham on the top step] Rules of Ladder Ham 1.

Dear Olympic Committee,
Due to recent housekeeping issues, safety concerns, contentious political climate, & the spirit of ethical sportsmanship, I suggest you pick a new country to host the #LA2028 Olympic Games. I no longer think the USA is a viable candidate.
Sincerely, a concerned Californian

Invading Canada Is Not Advisable We’ve tried before. It didn’t work out.

My 4-point marketing plan to change negative views of jellyfish:

1. Rebrand them as Ocean Puppies
2. Dig up dirt on people who claim to have been stung by an ocean puppy and blackmail them to retract
3. Get ocean puppies into petting zoos so kids can pet them
4. If they sting any kids, see point 2

me in 2005: Jurassic Park is unrealistic because it's a movie about a dinosaur theme park

me in 2025: Jurassic Park is unrealistic because the rich CEO of the dinosaur park is not immediately handed complete control of the US National Park Service

It is kinda funny that people are going wow Canada seems pretty united and pissed off and yeah I guess threatening to take over someone’s homeland and trying to economically ruin them might make folks a little upset that’s wild

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that the actual text of certain executive orders does NOT rename the entire Gulf of Mexico, and the area it renames is not technically a Gulf.

Winston Churchill wearing a dressing gown.
Yes, I know I just posted it, but I want to turn it into a thread and here on bsky that doesn't really work so here we go again.

A bit more about what he was wearing underneath...

I once met the leader of our country. I was wearing just an ordinary t-shirt, and he didn't care whether I was dressed up in a suit or not.

Putting “Trump declares Pluto a planet again” on my bingo card.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.

This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.

What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

Canada every time Trump makes a “Governor Trudeau” joke:

It never occurred to me to add Sortilege to my butter tarts. Definitely going to try it it sounds delicious.
