It's week 3 of fatherhood, and today I was granted special dispensation from shopping, housework, nappies & feeding, to do some macrophotography!
The highlight was this Oribatid mite (N. spinulosa) sporting long defensive spines, which I've nicknamed the Hellraiser mite!

7. In the biggest news, New York City elected Zohran Mamdani as mayor—a rebuke to his opponents’ anti-trans rhetoric and a victory built on an unapologetically pro-trans platform. Just weeks ago, Mamdani released a two-minute pro-trans ad set to transgender artist SOPHIE’s “It’s OK to Cry."
As Some Dems Run From Trans People, Zohran Mamdani's Latest Ad Shows Real Support
The 2 minute ad features Sylvia Rivera's story, Mamdani's commitment to transgender people, and even music from the legendary late trans artist SOPHIE.

is there no limit to the cruelty or stupidity of this government?
I've spoken to TfL workers who are terrified about sudden Skilled Worker visa changes.
In less than 3 weeks, hundreds of workers risk losing their jobs, their homes and the right to stay in the country they’ve been building their lives in. [1/3]

🤯 The government have announced that university tuition fees in England will increase every year in line with inflation from 2026.
🧑🎓 Education should be a right, not a privilege.
💚 That's why the Green Party would scrap tuition fees altogether.
