Obviously I never want a swift to be a fatality, but I also want to include swifts in my exhibitionif anyone has any contacts who might be able to help, please RT and DM me!

The local natural history museum hasn't got a swift speciment, but is willing to add one to the permanent collection. Sadly this means waiting for a fatality for the taxidermist who is in touch with a local swift charity (sorry I don't know which one).

I am curating an exhibition about the four Aristiotelian elements with a strong environmental focus, and I would like to include a specimen of a Swift as a bird that lives entirely air-borne for most of its live, and tell a conservation story around it @swifts_uk

@i_iratus He’s never heard of preventive medicine then?

@flightlines247 @seatsixtyone Funny you should say that, I just booked flights through the competitor of the airline I have 65,000 hard-to-use air miles with, specifically because the fare was refundable with travel credit rather than non-refundable or having to change the dates at the time.

@seatsixtyone Dynamic pricing models need to balance revenue management with passenger flexibility. The airline industry learned this lesson the hard way - strict non-refundable fares often drive customers to competitors

No they haven’t.

Wow. A recent order of three items from @UNIQLO_UK arrived with only two of the items in the packaging which was too small to fit a third item, and the “investigation” has just decided that all three items were sent, so no refund or replacement. That is basically theft.

@StampsBot 😭😭😭

Britain is a fascinating place. I had not previously understood that a state could suffer from clinical depression

@TheKentAcorn Ooh, nice lettering.

This platform and its owner are enemies of the rule of law and sovereignty.

If you were looking for a reason to jump ship then it's here: We must lengthen @TheMERL hog.

@simon_beattie Chesham getting carried away with turning on the Christmas lights?

Live scenes from my office window.

@ADHDForReal Uh, both?

@nanayasleeps I was still checking it in 2001, it’s where I first saw the news about the Twin Towers.

Anyone still checking Ceefax in 1999 was probably nerdy enough to know about al-Qaeda.

Just read this.

Bluesky is definitely a kinder place.. However, having weighed everything up I've decided to continue posting here, too Unfortunately it's a challenge to be seen these days. So, if you see this, please may I ask you to repost, so I can re-find my tribe? Thank you! 🐝

@MarinaHyde I’m not moving to Bluesky to be in a bubble, I’m leaving Twitter because I am tired of the relentless algorithms, ads and monetisation and having the platform owner manipulate things to promote his personal bubble by drowning out everything else in a landslide of bots and trolls.

My column on celebrities leaving the United States, people leaving Twitter, and the desirability or otherwise of "the resistance" theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@AranelParmadil I would never describe the words of someone I loved as “spewing”, no matter how angry I was or what they said.

@ADHDForReal Will it be the same content so I can leave? When I upgrade my phone I’ll lose the Twitter app and will not download the rebranded app.
