Whale sharks are baleen feeders, so can only eat small fish. We have basking sharks occasionally popping up off the Cornish coast, which fuckwits think are great whites.

This makes no fucking sense (as per usual). If quarter life is 25, how can midlife be 35...?!

Then "we live 78 years on average" - where...? Not in developing countries, they don't. And, if that's the case, quarter life is 19.5 years and half life is 39.

Then you would be very, very wrong. Durdle Door is very much dark enough to see the full expanse of the Milky Way. As are the North York Moors, the Shetlands, the Orkneys, the Scilly Isles (much of Cornwall in fact), Bodmin Moor, Snowdonia, the Cairngorms, Exmoor, Dartmoor, the Brecon Beacons, the Lake District (which has a dark sky festival every year), the Peak District, the South Downs

There are, in fact, several Dark Sky festivals around the UK annually

• Cumbria (Lake District, 28th October - 12th November this year)
• South Downs (4th - 17th February (the South Downs National Park was designated an International Dark Sky Place (of which there are only 20) in 2016)
• Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors (10th - 26th February 2023)
• Wales Dark Sky Week (17th - 26th February in the Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia and Pembrokeshire Coast National Parks)
• Northumberland Dark Skies Festival (TBC) - the first designated International Dark Sky Place in England.
• Exmoor (every October)

The UK has two International Dark Sky National Parks (Northumberland National Park and the Elan Valley National Park in Powys, mid-Wales).

We also have four International Dark Sky Reserves (Brecon Beacons National Park, South Wales, Exmoor National Park, Devon, Moore's Reserve, South Downs, and Snowdonia National Park in North Wales).

Additionally Coll, in the Inner Hebrides in Scotland, Moffatt, Dumfries & Galloway, and Sark in the Channel Islands are designated International Dark Sky Communities.

I'd not call it 'rouge' it's more of a ginger... 😜

Can we stop calling it a 'rodent'...? It's a hamster, a dwarf Russian hamster. Campbell's Dwarf Hamster known as a species of Russian hamster, even though the first specimen was found in Mongolia.

I mean it is a rodent, obviously, but I'm just surprised that more people don't know what a dwarf hamster looks like, they're not unusual as pets.

How much DMT was involved in the creation of this...?
