Graphic with the headline β€œLondon is the greatest city in the world” set against a bright view of the River Thames with the Shard, Tower Bridge and the city skyline.

The text celebrates what makes London special: regularly voted the number one city in the world, incredible diversity with over 300 languages spoken, world-class transport, world leader in finance tech and life sciences, best museums and galleries many free to visit, world-leading nightlife, food sport and music for every taste, host to the world’s best sporting events, home to seven Premier League clubs, globally-ranked universities, a city where you can be yourself and love who you love, and a place for everyone.

A little reminder for everyone, particularly our friends in the Labour government:

I understand. We understand.

We understand the importance that Europe had in your lives and the sense of biting loss for many of you.

We understand what Brexit has done.

Science break.
This kayaker gets approached by an otter every time he visits a lake. The otter was orphaned after the mother was in an accident, and the man helped it throughout it's rehabilitation process to later release it back into the wild. Volume up.πŸ”Š

Birdsong
 
There is a bird who sings to me,
each morning from the old lime tree.
I wonder what he’s trying to say?
Stop fucking up. It’s not too late.
 
It’s such a happy, joyous sound!
Little bird who chirps so loud
And brightens up my day with song.
Stop standing there. You’ve not got long.
 
I wish I could translate your words,
my faithful, a cappella bird,
who sits upon the lime tree bough.
And still you wait. You must act now.
 
All’s quiet in the tree today.
I think perhaps he’s moved away.
There’s silence these days everywhere,
the ghost of birdsong in the air.

Here’s a poem for Earth Day. It’s called β€˜Birdsong’.

massively depressing that the big scandal is that the shithead guy from the atlantic got texted accidentally and not the part where they're raining more death on yemen

The Artemis III manned moon landing is scheduled for ~3 years time and relies on Spaceship HLS, which is carried by Starship. NASA is in a hole with this. Starship government funding is unlikely to be affected by current DOGE cuts!

I’m no way an expert, but if problems are as fundamental as the article suggests then NASA 2027 target seems very optimistic. In fact the article implies that SpaceX will have to choose between a viable payload and full reusability which means starting again.

My parents were big LD fans. They had this on 78 - one of the first songs I ever listened too, still love it now.

Absolutely, one of the very few plus points on Tuesday, way more effective than Jackson.

I read a lot of Tanith Lee as I grew up. That may well have contributed to me being the open-minded person I like to think I am. A battered copy of Drinking Sapphire Wine is still on my shelf.

Afghanistan as a nation gets huge prestige from playing cricket, particularly as it’s their most popular sport. To validate their regime in this way is just wrong.

Hi Jimmy - I'd be interested. Not entirely sure how this app works, but can you message me contact details & we can arrange to meet up?

If you can get the tickets in the post, first class, I'd happily give you face value plus a bit for the trouble. I live in London, so easy for me to get there on Tuesday.

Agreed, with Elder being a bit fragile and Bradley gone, it leaves Fozzy as key backup in 2 positions. But still not priority.
