- A radio actor skilled in the imitation of animal sounds.

Used in a sentence:
“My grandmother used to be a crawk on WOR-FM for the Tarzan of the Apes radio show; it was her flawless sedge-warbler impression that finally convinced Gramps to propose.”

For years, experts have warned that nature loss would become a security threat.

Now a national security assessment confirms it: biodiversity collapse risks food shortages, economic instability and global disorder.

Nature underpins our global safety. So why is UK Government failing to protect it?

Haven't seen either of the 28 Years films, not a big horror fan, but I was wondering why Jimmy Saville was chosen (even if he hadn't been a paedophile, it's still a random choice). Having a gang dressed up as Teletubbies though feels weirder (it would definitely look weirder).

I was also (1/2)
Read a surprisingly decent theory that Jimmy’s gang in 28 Years Later were meant to be modelled off Teletubbies but got changed to Saville cause the Teletubbies IP holders obviously got uncomfortable (can’t blame em TBH) Since you don’t to pay a dead POS anything, easier to do.

Ugh I read an article last night about how the US wants more ppl to have children, of course the ideas are written by misogynistic men:

Fine childless people
Reduce education mobility for women
Bonuses for number of children
Limiting access to abortion and birth control (already achieved )
