Day 6 of #ArtAdventCalendar: I was watching this Grizzly Bear and her cub when she stopped for a moment, sat up, and seemed to just take in the view as the sun began to set. #wildlife

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.
Christ on a cracker — these seemingly hostile drones only missed Zelensky’s plane because he was unexpectedly early www.thejournal.ie/drones-dubli...
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

What is going on with the accents? So distracting that apart from the leads everyone is Irish! In Derbyshire!
Also a missed opportunity that it wasn't filmed in the glorious Peak District - the best shows make the location one of the main characters.

Call me a mad alien with a Ceefax fetish but I don’t think you should be allowed to drastically change the justice system without asking voters in advance. Starmer and Lammy, if you think this is so important you need to call an election and make your case. I’m free in January.

🚨SHOCKING FACT: Sustainable small-scale fishing boats make up 79% of the UK fleet but only get allocated around 2% of the fishing quota.
The UK gov is choosing a few greedy industrial fishing corporations over our local fishermen.
It’s a national disgrace.
