I can believe it! I watched the Xfiles ( saw a trailer on BBC about ep 3, with the liver eating guy and was hooked instantly)as a teen and I don't really remember it being her specifically that inspired me. More like all the nature documentaries my dad made us watch 😆 Chose Art over Biology later

@princess-vimentin.bsky.social this is a really interesting report and worth downloading the PDF. Thanks to Gillan Anderson's character 63% of women said she boosted their confidence to excel in male-dominated jobs, and 91% viewed her as a positive role model.

This is just such a live saver honestly, I hate that if I have a large family the kids will just be randomly placed in cribs, like they don't have their own beds! certainly if you have twins. kemzimamods.com/mod-list/cla...

My cat never wakes me! He's a prince and doesn't do waking up. Unlike most of my other cats who aimed at my bladder and jumped on it to get me to get outta bed😆

Reasons Your Cat Woke You 1. Their bowl was empty. They saw the bottom in 1 tiny spot. 2. A bird existed outside. You needed to know. 3. They heard a noise. There was no noise. There could’ve been. 4. No reason at all. They were simply awake, & felt you should be as well. You’re welcome.

Morning in Kyiv. The night attack took the lives of at least 12 people and caused damage in several districts. I made warcoffee, opened the windows and let the sunshine in.

A full third of registered voters failed a freakin open book test because THEY ARE FUNCTIONAL ILLITERATES and TREASONOUS IDIOTS

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

His name is Hakty. He was rescued, taken to a shelter in Kyiv, and sure looks like he's pissed off at Vladimir Putin. Thank you @eugenekibets.bsky.social for the work you do.

Oh man so many! I mean we played space invaders and some game with a frog and his tongue and some flies hahha. Or the text based adventures, but this one is the one we played most and I have on Steam again!

Qtp with a video game that transports you back to your childhood Stronghold Crusader. Watching my dad play this or his other strategy war games (but this one was my fave) while he gave me fun facts about history and then begging him to let me play too Or begging him to go play so I could watch

July 2026 was the first month in 155 years where it didn't rain at Kew Gardens

I'm finishing this build today! ☺️ I love the way it's coming together, the vaulted ceiling and sunken living/kitchen is so cool! #TS4 #Sims4 #TheSims4 #Showusyourbuilds

Some pics of an in-progress build. It's a rework of the oldest build on my gallery 😁 I can get an exterior done in a day, then I drag my feet trying to get myself to do the interior. #TS4 #Sims4 #TheSims4 #Showusyourbuilds P.S. I'm going live as I post this to work on some builds for my save file.

The song of my people

The EU want to make this a law, that all things made with Ai should be marked as such so people can choose to use it or not and make it clear what they are buying/streaming. Also to add these flags as filters on Spotify and Image banks.

The arid backdrop speaks volumes, but Beatrice's analysis is also excellent. The right time for adaptation and mitigation was (at least) 20 years ago. The second best time is now. The worst time is at any point in the future, and the longer the timescale the worse it'll be. Burnham: MIA.

Most of England and Wales are now in drought, with wildfires burning across the country and record-breaking heatwaves straining water supplies. Beatrice Mosello from Chatham House's Environment and Society Centre argues that the extreme summer temperatures expose a serious policy gap.

41 years ago, Carl Sagan gave a clear and elegant explanation of the science behind global warming.

Criminal slumlord Jared Kushner’s corrupt $5B resort plan in Albania has all but effectively collapsed after the country froze all of his assets that are tied with his money laundering project. Good. Well done to the Albanian people who refused to see this happen.

Discovered this amazing mural while running work errands today. For a moment there I actually thought the figure on the ground was a live person touching up the mural. It’s that good (or my glasses are that bad 😂).

Problem is that yeah they treat their workers badly, but also your data is shared with these companies. In the Netherlands we have a company called Bol ( .com)that just had a huge data breach because their subcontractor was hacked. Happens over and over again, and who is accountable really?

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.
