📢BRILLIANT NEW RESOURCE KLAXON📢

Wonderful to be there as Charlotte Gauthier [@faraiunvers.bsky.social], Edmund Wareham Wanitzek & Lyndal Roper launched their site - pop over to get a sense of the huge scale of destruction of monastaries and convents during the Peasants' War

Now live! We've created the most comprehensive map to-date of religious institutions in the German Peasants' War (1524-26), identifying many more affected institutions than existing source lists.

Find our map, case studies, and much more on our website:

The number of satellites in Earth orbit is doubling every 18 months, which is hugely damaging to astronomy, near-Earth space and the upper atmosphere. We need a new approach to space environmentalism, writes @e-astronomer.bsky.social in his @science.org column. 🧪🔭☄️

I can’t speak for anyone else, but this analogy of “Lady Liberty’ held captive, is exactly how I feel about this presidency & administration and what their attempting to do with our rights and freedoms…

The New Yorker captured the feelings perfectly…

One word, UNACCEPTABLE!

N'oubliez pas que ceux qui ne manqueront pas de fustiger un "gouvernement des juges" sont en fait opposés à la séparation des pouvoirs et à la démocratie. Ce n'est pas seulement la justice qu'ils méprisent, c'est surtout le principe de pouvoir être tenus pour responsable de leurs actes.

Mud, glorious mud!

#OnThisDay, 9 Feb 1907, around 3,000 people take part in the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies' march through London, demanding the vote.

The weather was dreadful, hence its nickname of “the Mud March”.
