Hello #Mastodon!
This is my first post on Mastodon. I am usually to be found on www.unmannedspaceflight.com but I will be sharing space-related images here as well.
I'm Taking The Prime Minister To The High Court | Chris Packham
In September the Prime Minister and his Government announced delays for key climate commitments, tearing up plans to tackle vehicle emissions & phase out gas boilers.
Today I can announce I'm taking them to the High Court – but I need your help.

Hey folks!
Please do NOT report artists for sharing links to where the art is available to purchase!
Just DO NOT be such a jerk!
If you want artists to keep sharing their work on mastodon, this whole "absolute no commercial posts at all" attitude has to stop. There is a huge difference between a big corporate ad campaign and an individual artist posting a link to their own art shop.

The prominent peaky mountain is Stac Pollaidh whose character is out of all proportion to its mere 613m or 2,009ft in height.

The #Ogiek people fight #eviction from their traditional homes in the #Mau forest #Kenya.
'The latest wave of evictions, which began on November 2, affected more than 1,000 of the Ogiek, a community that has been predominantly hunter-gatherers for centuries in the area in and around the forest.
“As I know it myself, we have lived here for 174 years,” Wilson Ngusilo, a chairperson of the Ogiek council in Narok County in southwest Kenya, told Al Jazeera. “I buried my father on this land at the age of 105 years, and I am personally 69 years old myself. I have known this as my home and don’t know where I am supposed to go.”

@CensoredMen RT by @aiww: 🇵🇸🇮🇱 Piers Morgan asks professor @normfinkelstein how he thinks his parents, who were both Holocaust survivors, would’ve reacted to October 7th. “They [his parents] had the right to hate the people that destroyed their lives, and the people of Gaza have the right to hate the people who destroyed their lives.” @piersmorgan | @PiersUncensored https://nitter.hongkongers.net/CensoredMen/status/1727797005513117828#m
I do research in visual/computational neuroscience, spend too long doing Linux admin and not long enough demonstrating against the shitshow that is the UK government....
