My ginger sheep has been out in the falling snow.

On this #TrailCamTuesday, here's one of my favourite clips captured to date. Can't wait to get back and see who has passed through this winter. #wildlife

Kiedyś przy okazji odbierania jakiejś nagrody jako pierwsza uhonorowana czarna kobieta, amerykańska producentka telewizyjna Shonda Rhimes powiedziała, że nie jest zadowolona z tego, że przebija szklany sufit. I że w ogóle nie lubi tego powiedzenia, bo wie, że żeby ona mogła ten sufit przebić, to tysiące kobiet przed nią musiało w niego uderzyć i się roztrzaskać.

Więc ja bym chciała, żebyście sobie dzisiaj przy 8 marca pomyśleli o tych kobietach, które się roztrzaskały i nikt o nich nie pamięta.

happy gender pay gap bot day to all who celebrate

(To mark this March 8th, we're turning over our social media to some of the brave women in Ukraine, fighting against the Russian invasion & attempted genocide)

"I remember I was making a card for my mom for 8 March in second grade. The number 8 was made of dry beans glued to cardboard… I can’t imagine anything more kitschy, anything that devalues and distorts this day more than turning it into a “day of spring and beauty,” and all these endless awkward cards, tulips, shampoo sets, and drunk parties to celebrate the “decoration of the office team” once a year.

So I can understand the part of our society who advocate for canceling this holiday as one of the last remnants of the Soviet Union. Generally, it would be logical to send the “day of girls” after the “day of boys” (23 February) to follow the course of the Russian warship. But there’s a “but,” and not just one. Around the world, 8 March is not a day of spring and beauty, it is a day of struggle for women’s rights. And this is still relevant, given the problems faced by countless women everywhere and in Ukraine in particular. It is especially relevant during the war, when the level of poverty, unemployment, violence and discrimination goes off the charts, and women are the first to suffer from it. So as long as the problems of the struggle for women’s rights are relevant, this day remains relevant as well.

I am at the front now. Just like over 5,000 other women who fight and 60,000 who serve, I am also fighting the russian aggressor. I want us to defeat this empire of evil as soon as possible, so that our only enemy after the victory is the patriarchy. Which will be defeated, too.

Death to the empire! Death to the patriarchy!"

Can't argue with this.

A group of over 200 scientists, nonprofit organizations and advocates are asking President Biden to issue an executive order protecting beavers on US federal lands.

A pamiętacie jak 31 lat temu pewna zajebiście zapowiadająca się artystka w geście sprzeciwu wobec Jana Pawła II i tuszowaniu przemocy wobec dzieci podarła zdjęcie Wojtyły? Purytańska Ameryka i Kościół zniszczyli jej później życie, nigdy już nie odbiła się. #JP2GMD

Our girls having fun this morning, as the predicted dump of snow arrived overnight.

We were out early, breaking snow on the carpet smooth tracks, and able to track the wildlife, but sadly for the girls, never had a close encounter 🙂.
