Great thread describing what 1987 was like in the UK for gay people. I was 15 at the time. Genuinely, although I’ve thrived in my life I don’t think I’ll ever not be a bit scarred by this period in my life.

I’m warming up my hammys as we speak! 😂

Top winemaker ‘may have to leave its Spanish vineyards due to climate crisis’ Familia Torres has been making wine in Catalonia since 1870, but says it may have to move to higher altitudes in 30 years’ time A leading European winemaker has warned it may have to abandon its ancestral lands in Catalonia in 30 years’ time because climate change could make traditional growing areas too dry and hot. Familia Torres is already installing irrigation at its vineyards in Spain and California and is planting vines on land at higher altitudes as it tries to adapt to more extreme conditions.

Top winemaker ‘may have to leave its Spanish vineyards due to climate crisis’

Given the injuries, the doctors are the winners here…

This is really interesting. And how they vote themselves to irrelevancy.

What's your dancing style?

Simply too sad for words.
Farewell Adam Selwood.

Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

You think what's being done to land-based ecosystems is bad?

Take a look at what's happening under the sea. It's as if all birds and other wild animals were being hoovered out of forests for our mass consumption, shredding the trees and everything else in the process.

Out of sight, out of mind.

A better metric is net meters gained then — meters gained minus the meters from turnovers.

Definitely — and I also accept shirts and apparel. Also from @donthestat.bsky.social ;-)

I was just thinking the other day that I was a decent back pocket player if they need me this season. If it keeps going, they might!

@essendonfc.bsky.social should send you a couple of bombers tops then. We will need all the help we can get with the next few matches and injuries.

Yeah, I was reading about a killer crab. Did it kill other crabs? Or humans? I mean, to be convicted, surely it had to kill humans, right? And if so, how have I not heard about it?!? 😂

Oh my god

I know it wouldn't change anything but just once when a Trump lackey gets up there and blames the Biden administration for their obvious destructive fuck-ups I want a reporter to just ask something like "does this get embarrassing for you, this obvious bullshit?"

“And so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

I’ve never actually liked corgis

Baby shoes, never worn: SOLD!

Shouldn’t have gone to sleep… 😅 But we got the W in the end…

This Rümeysa Öztürk hearing is radicalizing.

I've been a court reporter for many years, and I've never covered anything like this: A student deeply committed to her studies, imprisoned solely over writing an op-ed, being made to testify under oath for her own freedom.

Dark, dark stuff.

It is! :-)

That’s lovely — our dog does the same thing!

I would also go for Crossley as we have Visintini for development in the ruck, so this would help Goldstein in the ruck the rest of the year. Then I might use one more on one of the Richmond VFL players. #GoDons

oh I see, when the pope chooses a new name, Christians are all for it and address him as such, but a TRANS person chooses a new name—

I have to admit as an atheist, the Catholic Church certainly got it right in communicating the results of the papal elections for the information age. I don’t care, yet “what colour is the smoke?!?” I think when I see a news alert on my phone. 😅
