Some mountaineers, knowing their flying contributes to the melting of the very snow and ice they want to climb, are like "well, you gotta get it while you still can.", and I'm like, "what about the people whose lives depend on those glaciers, you daft twunts."
So much life to live close to home. I feel much more positive about friends flying to see family in far away places, than I do them flying for adventure jollies. I don't judge and I'm still happy for them in a way but I'm not shy about putting my flying thoughts across.
I flew more than my fair share, realised the impact it has and stopped. Last flight was 12 years ago. Highlands, Lakes, Eryri, Pembrokeshire, Peak, Dales, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall. More mountains, sea cliffs, waves, rock and beauty than anyone can fit into one lifetime. โจ๏ธ ๐๐ป ๐ซ
Yup ๐ฏ

Erm... is Iran allowed to lead on Iran? Is enforcing ideology onto a nation, in any way shape or form, effective or ethical in the short or long term? Dialogue, understanding and encouragement make sense. Protection of citizens who are suppressed makes sense. That might mean asylum. But this?
So good from Ellie Chowns ๐
Exactly what we need on every count ๐ฏ
The extremists are running the show ๐ข
Far-right evangelical Christian leaders who kill Muslims in the name of their god. They don't represent Christianity. They represent fear, hate, white narcissism and psychotic brutality.
Mehdi on point with his perspective on Israel, the US, the UK, Iran, Lebanon and the media. We all need to work to point people towards the media and voices who will inform them better. ๐๐ป
It's so horrible to see this unfold. Feeling so much love and solidarity for you and Lebanese people. ๐๐ป
You guys are incredible - first ยฃ500 already raised. Faster we raise this money, faster we can start investigating! How quickly can we hit the first ยฃ1000?๐ ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ ๐จ
Hope is here! ๐ค

I was born into a fundamentalist evangelical shit show I had to extract my soul and spirit from. It's so ironic that Trump is pretty much the top candidate for the antichrist moniker in my lifetime, probably ever.
This is heart breaking and horrific, and the Israeli government's genocidal behaviour has been supported and upheld by the action and complicity of our UK government. For the sake of our humanity and relationship with our world, we have to vote for leaders who work against this, not for it. ๐๐ป
I'm only in there because Bluesky won't let me leave, else there'd be one more high quality account to follow. ๐
If you have friends and family who'd like an alternative to the mainstream media mulch we are fed, get them onto Bluesky and give them something like this to help them get started. It's carefully curated, well researched and regularly monitored. Please send recommendations too. Information is power!

If police are claiming activists had plans to steal, that's their justification for arrest and the location is poignant but incidental. If it turns out the activists had no plans and only aired the concept as an idea to explore, the police have gone too far. More investigation is required. ๐
Thank you. Now we're drilling into the reality. ๐
Thanks for the thought. I just checked and I'm fairly sure the law says that conspiracy to burgle is an offence. I'm just saying that we have to be crystal clear when criticising police behaviour, else we risk undermining our cause. They need calling out and we need to do that with precision. ๐
Goodnight ๐งก
When you run a bath, add a cup of epsom salts with a few drops of lavender essential oil, light the candles, step into it... and realise you didn't turn the water heater on. You're welcome.
Is it any wonder violent resistance movements organise against them? ๐ฅน How many martyrs have they made since 1947? ๐ข
I tried sharing yours just now and it looks the same as Zack's. Do I need to get some sleep?
