Belly full, in her nest of soft pillows and blankets, warm, safe and loved. There is nothing like breathing in her peace and contentment. Everything vanishes in that warm glow. My best times!
When I see things like this I can't help but thinking human beings are monsters.

They carry on alienating everyone by trying to please everyone, especially Reform voters.
The government won’t achieve ‘decency’ over ‘division’ by trying to be Reform Lite and please remember this - the ECHR is much more than a treaty. It’s a quiet promise - a shield against abuse of power, a lifeline for the vulnerable, a declaration of who we are as a nation
Labour’s plan risks weakening protections for all of us. Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any government to say who those rights should and should not apply to. It’s a slippery slope to oblivion youtu.be/bl0Lm7v_T18?...

Prioritise residents rights over second home owners. Make it impossible for holiday homes to remain empty for most of the year and outlaw Airbnb only properties. There are enough houses. Leave the green spaces alone.
This is what many of us have been saying. Part 3 of the Planning & Infrastructure Bill is based on a myth: that we don't have enough homes because wildlife and green spaces are protected. It will solve nothing, and inflict terrible harm on our remaining ecosystems

This is on Trump.
It's not just ambition on climate action that's being run down, but nature.
Planet Earth is in the fight of its life and, on balance, those of us who are its allies are losing.
It's our duty to work out why, and act on it.

This is on Trump.
He is now attacking the BBC. Not perfect, but still one of the most trusted broadcasters in the world. This with the help of our own awful, despicable rug, the Daily Telegraph.
As @rbreich.bsky.social notes billionaires and their families own X, Paramount, CBS, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, Amazon, MGM, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and New York Post, and could soon own Warner Bros and CNN
And they are all Trump supporters
"Liberal media" indeed

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

Only for 5 minutes a day to communicate their needs. The rest of the time it is wonderful to enjoy a rich relationship based on silent communication.

How can this be right? Aside from the suffering such conditions inflict, this is a recipe for infectious diseases. These poor wretched birds. Just disgraceful.
The global chickens industry 👺Depraved from a natural life. Depraved from their parents. Depraved from sunshine and space. Depraved from their lives. Live #vegan don’t be their abuser ✌️
