#photography #sunrise
Sunrise over a marina of narrowboats. There are vibrant reds, fuchsias and a glint of yellow in the sky reflecting in a swath of water in the foreground. Two ducks swim.

Tbf, I grew up with thanksgiving but until I was a grown up, I thought cornucopia was an idea and not an actual woven basket thingy.

I’m not sure you should be driving a 2 ton machine if you can’t “get used to what 20 mph feels like”.

Why are rapid demographic changes unsettling?

“Firearms Have Surpassed Motor Vehicle Collisions as the Leading Cause of Mortality for Youths.” should be the headline then.

England is now experiencing a significant COVID wave, after 10 months of relative quiet.

"If someone says they are in bed with flu, it’s almost certainly COVID, given that the number of people admitted to hospital for COVID last week was 50 times higher than the number admitted for flu!"
The chart shows weekly hospital COVID admissions per 100,000 population in the UK from May 2023 to September 29, 2025, based on UKHSA data.

Autumn 2023 peak reached around 6 per 100k.

Winter JN.1 peak followed early 2024 (~5 per 100k).

Several 2024 peaks occurred mid-year before dropping.

A 10-month stretch of low, stable levels lasted through late 2024 to mid-2025.

A new Sept 2025 wave shows a sharp upward climb approaching prior peak levels.

“Here Farage is, in Gill’s office, with Voloshyn’s wife Nadia, on the day Gill makes an intervention on behalf of Medvedchuk’s channels, with an employee of one of those channels, whose husband started bribing Gill to make these statements 6 days earlier”

'Stunned?' Farage's Admission He Knew Nathan Gill but Not His Kremlin Associates Does Not Stand Up to Scrutiny
Insiders have told Byline Times, it is 'inconceivable' the Reform Leader did not know about his close aide's pro Russian statements

My favourite grasshopper fact: Grasshoppers first appeared on the planet 250 million years ago.

Grass did not appear on the planet until 40 million years ago

Imagine it: 210 million years, hopping around on any random surface you can find, waiting for the grass that will make you truly yourself.

Autism can be diagnosed at 3 months old. The vaccines falsely associated with autism are started at 6 months. The Lancet retracted the dubious study & the author lost his medical license, end this ridiculous myth once and for all.
