I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.
The Democratic governors of Washington, Oregon, California, and Hawaii released a set of immunization guidelines for their states on Wednesday.
We have these gorgeous Common Buckeye butterflies all over our property in Virginia's Middle Peninsula- such a treat to see them!

An essential read on disability & travel. Finds:
“The most commonly mentioned barriers are pedestrian infrastructure, particularly non-existent, narrow, or uneven pavements, while wide, good quality pavements with benches ease travel to local destinations and public transport stops.”
We were very impressed by the ones outside near the Liberty Bell. Hope they stay there!
I wish you better
💥Acabamos de conocer que el Ayuntamiento de Madrid tiene planes para prácticamente destruir uno de los murales artísticos más reconocidos de la ciudad, encargado y firmado por el alcalde Enrique Tierno Galván.
El mural original DEBE preservarse.

@royalmailofficial.bsky.social Why do you keep missing some of my post that I’m paying you to redirect? I can’t find any way to tell you eg to whom should I send a photo of last week’s @bigissue.com magazine and the not-redirected envelope?
Americans have short memories—keep reminding them. PLEASE SHARE!
Thank you for the honour!

#SSM2025
Thanks to everyone at @socsocmed.bsky.social #ASM2025 and #BradfordForsterSquare Stn who helped me catch my scheduled train despite me leaving my case and needing to go back for it.
@socsocmed.bsky.social #SSM2025 The venue & travel pages of the conference website are blank. How long will it take to travel between the conf venue and ?Bradford Stn? I need to book my train tickets! Thx
Thanks. My husband has received an email from you and will respond that way. I’ll get back to you if it isn’t resolved.

@expediagroup.bsky.social #BudgetCarHire. No refund: Expedia says Budget’s fault. Budget says was No refund contract. But they’re in breach of contract. Surely a partial refund is cheaper than defending a Breach of contract lawsuit? Can @expediagroup.bsky.social persuade Budget to compensate us? 2/2
@expediagroup.bsky.social #BudgetCarHire booked us to return hire car to an office they knew was being vacated before the return date. Swore they’d be there & the office open. Wasted hours getting car to another office miles away & getting back. 1/2
Just spent day at @zslofficial.bsky.social #WhipsnadeZoo 4yr old said “Best day ever!” But AVOID #CostaCoffee at exit. Undrinkable coffee. (And doesn’t take Costa app nor AmEx.)
News not Need!
Need item about car parking charges and town centres. They don’t seem to know that the evidence shows that pedestrians & those travelling by cycle and public transport spend more than car users (less per trip but more trips).
Most drivers are not sociopaths. Don’t undermine good arguments - it’s unnecessary (there are so many facts on your side) and counterproductive
