Did you know there's a 500-million-year-old species that lives in the deep sea called Paleodictyon, but we only know it from trace fossils and marks on the seafloor and have absolutely no idea what the animal is?
It could be a sponge or a foram or a xenophyophore or something totally different.

NIGHT PRAYER:
In the silence of the stars, In the quiet of the land,
In the heaving of the sea… Speak Lord.
In the stillness of this room, In the calming of my mind Speak Lord.
In the voice of a friend, In the words of a stranger… Speak Lord.
In the silence of the stars, In the quiet of the land,
In the heaving of the sea… Speak Lord.

Ok Bluesky, let’s give this a go: I found this postcard in the back of a photo frame I bought at a London thrift shop.
It’s an unsent postcard from a woman called Linda to her parents. The front shows the Kremlin in Moscow and the stamp says 1984 (!).
I’d love to return it to Linda - can you help?

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop.

The BBC must stop attacking trans people | Good Law Project
The right wing accusations of ‘pro-trans’ bias are back to front. It’s time for the BBC to live up to its duty to be impartial on trans issues.

The fact any of this is even being entertained shows what a pajama of a PM Starmer is. OK so he goes to court and sues. Where? The case will be thrown out in 15 min in the UK so ok lets say he gets a US court to demand that the UK state broadcaster pay him a billion. And they get it how? Invasion?

My mum has been making needle felted mice for a few years and enjoys challenging herself with new themes and ideas. She's just set up her first exhibition at the stately home she volunteers at, with a family of period mice. Incredible.

People have tried to say that the Green surge is just on social media.
Or in a bubble that's just about polls and just about new members.
Yet up and down the country - Greens are also winning elections.
