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!
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
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).
@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.
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 βinvestigationβ has just decided that all three items were sent, so no refund or replacement. That is basically theft.
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! π
@MarinaHyde Iβm not moving to Bluesky to be in a bubble, Iβm 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.
