       @futurebird maybe the selection pressures that resulted in arthropods way back when would instead produce - other kind of arthropods?!It's too long since I studied evolution. But you've got me thinking now!

       TIL that including "from:me" in the search box in Mastodon will search my own posts. So obvious that I feel like an idiot for not realising before!

       Trump is an idiot - firing the messenger! (Ok, I *know* "Trump is an idiot" is not news!)"US President Donald Trump has ordered the firing of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after job numbers were lower than expected in July - figures showed that 73,000 jobs were created last month."#Trump #USpolhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cpqvdxzwv22t

       Walking back from a gig tonight, I noticed lots of people in Castle Street taking pictures. So I turned around to see what they were photographing. And this is what I saw. #Edinburgh #castle #moon #photography #clouds

       I can't help thinking the police are focusing on these protests in an effort to get politicians to back down. They have discretion to act. The people they're arresting are not a threat to people or property.

       @futurebird the problem I have is that people with such views are now close to those with the power to bring about the end of the world. Truly scary.

       People are sharing their "Spotify unwrapped" analyses of what they listened to on the streamer this year. So here's mine.Nothing. Zilch. Nada.Give your money to the artists, not the megalomaniac billionaire techbros.

       The possibilities of Labour candidates in Gorton & Denton are interesting...If Burnham puts his name forward and is blocked, Starmer has a problem. If Burnham is allowed to stand and wins, Starmer has a problem. If Burnham is allowed to stand and loses, he's fucked.If Burnham is blocked and the Labour candidate loses, Starmer has a problem. #UKpolhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c77kexz6k5zo
