The brightest moon can sometimes outshine the stelliferous sky behind it, but I need to remember the stars are always there, shining as they always do.

Honestly, there are times when following both @maryrosemuseum.bsky.social and @romanpalace.bsky.social feels like being a total gooseberry!

We (the UK and Europe) can no longer assume USA is our friend. Even when Trump is gone, close to half of the USA backed him.
A unified European force - call it a European army if you like - is the only viable future if we want to avoid being picked off by hostile giants to the East or West.

Rainbows are a phenomenon I’ve been fascinated with since I began capturing images of nature. To me, this image represents the countless hours invested in anticipation and being present when that moment finally happens. I guess that’s what makes photography so personally rewarding.

Well worth a read, we really shouldn't be too proud to learn from other countries with better practices.
If you get frustrated by the big lorries on the road tonight, have a read at this.

If UK suffers from shortage of truckers, why are drivers leaving the industry?
Amidst an HGV driver shortage, more and more drivers enter the industry only to leave it very soon after. Why?

I found some useful Canadian templates that provide Canadians their alternative to US product. I hope a UK version will appear soon.
I left X on 20th Jan. Missing several accounts from there, but it was the right decision.

Do not read this thread unless you are somewhere safe to laugh out loud to the point you go silent again due to being unable to breathe, with tears running down your face as people around you progress from asking 'what's funny'? to extreme concern!
Because some damn fool asked, here's a thread about Baxter.
This was taken on the day I brought home Baxter and threw away all hope of an easy life.
Look at him. Absolutely irresistible.
And that's how they get you, the utter bastards

Ukraine has fought too hard for its freedom, only to have its future dictated by Putin and Trump behind closed doors.
Any peace must guarantee Ukraine’s sovereignty and security on terms acceptable to Ukrainians, not just to Moscow and Mar-a-Lago.

I am not sure much of the media is seeing what a bleak and dangerous time we are entering - I hope UK politicians understand how hard they need to fight (if they want to) to stop the far right
We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.
