@sciencebase There's a Black one at Far Ings. Looks just the same except it's black.
@Catlynn The female rejects a portion of what he brings, I understand.π

News media yet again full of threats by governing party politicians to leave the ECHR.
And yet again nothing at all about how this would breach the Good Friday Agreement.

Contempt? What a shocker.
"Judge sets hearing on holding Trump in contempt"
"Judge Merchan has set a hearing on prosecutors' request to hold Trump in contempt for allegedly violating the judge's limited gag order.
The hearing is set for Wednesday, April 24 at 2:15 p.m. ET."

@freemo Another nice to know. The English told the French they could still "pluck yew" (draw their bow) and waved two fingers to illustrate it. The French misheard it. Tell it to the Marines, too....
@freemo Just in case you hear "J Arthur", it is indeed J Arthur Rank, but that one means 'tank'.
@freemo A 'Malcolm' is a razor.
(Malcolm Fraser, a stage comic).
But a razor means a 'blazer', usually at school.
@freemo Are they stainless blades?

1. We, Ukrainians, want to live.
2. We want to live in our sovereign independent state. Not russia.
3. We want to have our cultural identity and language. Not russian.
4. We want to decide our own future.
And russia has no legal or moral right to deny us any of this.
@freemo My cat did that to strangers but not to me. Ungrateful, she was.

Last year, I walked 26 miles in a day to raise money for Alzheimer's Research, in memory of my mother Joy Cooke, who died of dementia in 2017.
On 1st June this year, I'm doing it again. This time, I will be accompanied by my daughter Nadz.
.
I raised over Β£2,000 last year. Let's see if we can do even better this year! Here's our Just Giving page. Please give generously!
@sciencebase We had some Hawthorne ones last year. They are huge compared to the green ones.
@freemo Suggest Charles Kingsley's 'Water Babies'....

Also! If you've never heard of #PFAS / "forever chemicals" before and want to learn more, I recently revamped the PFAS FAQs on my website
(because I kept getting the same questions over and over!)
There's stuff there for both the public & for academics

Are there any #scientists studying #extremophiles here avaliable for some short talk?
@sciencebase DYK that they go backwards during a solar eclipse? I saw that in an article by Tommy Rot in Viz.
@sciencebase Love the clothes moth, music too. You could do a looper moth too, maybe Jazz Caterpillar.
@sciencebase Good example of paracetamol or something like that.
@Frances_Coppola Germany made a fuss about being able to get its boats out after WW1, didn' t it. When they did, they just sank everyone else's and caused trading issues.
