Sore feet after a 12-mile walk this afternoon to a location known as World's End. These three pictures were of the destination, but the stars of the show were cows. Hairy cows. You'd better like cows for the pictures I have to follow 😊

View of the same weir from the road, showing the stream crossing through rows of rocks either side. Trees all around Sunny
Panoramic view of narrow country road curved into a sharp horseshoe bend at head of valley. Weir to right, as road climbs beyond. Road descends to left. Within curve, a stream and field with many and varied tall trees. Hills beyond on horizon

And now for the main show. HAIRY COWS! First the grown-ups..

💕😊 #CowsOfMastodon #Photography #Wales

A large, heavy chestnut bull. Hairy! Horns curved forward. Standing, turning to camera, being protective of a tan cow, resting behind. Both in a sloping meadow
Same bull and cow pair in a meadow. Him, standing behind, turning to face camera. Her, still lying, just glancing at camera from beneath long fringe
Similar pose of same pair, but now both looking directly to the left

And last but not least, the hairy kids, hanging out by a shaded stream 😊

A curious, tan, hairy calf, standing in shade of tree above, looking at camera. Grassy meadow banking a stream in foreground
Three calves, two tan ones in field, standing just beyond stream in which a chestnut calf stands. All hairy. All looking at me! Leafy branch of tree in foreground above
Cute tan, hairy calf, standing in field, looking to camera and smelling the air. Long hair and fringe hiding eyes. Tree stump on stony bank, on edge of stream, in foreground to right. Leafy branch in foreground above and to left

An absolutely lovely 10 mile walk this afternoon. Had everything. Animal rescue, nature, solitude, romance, beauty, new life, amity 💕😊

A sample of moments.. a few further details in ALT text of each

More pics to follow

#Photography #Wales #Cymru

Romantic view of a young couple seen in the distance, silhouetted, walking together, hand in hand, beneath overarching trees in full leaf on a warm sunny day, along a country section of canal. The young woman, on the right, in a summer dress, is looking up to the man in t-shirt and shorts
Good sized slow worm in the kerbside of a road, about to climb the kerb, organic matter from trees and plants above collected in side of road. Found this little friend being harassed by a pair of crows, so I moved it to safety in some nearby undergrowth, away from traffic and predators
There has to be one panoramic picture. This one from about a 1000 feet, across canopy of trees in leaf to distant plains below, seen through blue haze. A viaduct visible in the distance

@Walrus @lowqualityfacts I think that's the point, but fwiw it would probably be more accurate to say that there are 35 atoms in the Universe, so yeah, a bit low. Of course, I haven't counted. By which I mean calculated

The vengeance by these universities is so evil. I heard that MIT suspended more than 24 students, with a bunch of them one week before graduation, so they don't know if they'll graduate. Evil.

Greenseer,
@Greenseer@toot.wales avatar

@timnitGebru If the main concern of these universities was for their reputation as providers of education, they would be reluctant to treat students this way. Instead, they are behaving with all the hubris and complacency of institutions that are gatekeepers for privilege

(Some) ignorant leftbros: "Class first! No idpol!"

Scholars of right wing politics/economics: "All these right-wing thinkers are much more comfortable thinking about the blurred lines between sexual and economic politics than many thinkers on the left. And they understand that Keynesianism rests on a certain kind of sexual contract. Any challenge to this order—whether it be an escalation of wage or benefit claims, or the flight from sexual normativity, or unmarried women claiming welfare benefits—disrupts the fiscal and monetary calculus on which Keynesianism rests."

Above remark from "The Extravagances of Neoliberalism", an interview of Melinda Cooper (author of "Counterrevolution: Extravagance and Austerity in Public Finance") by Benjamin Kunkel, in The Baffler.

@SallyStrange @bookstodon I always feel that those on the Left who wish to reduce everything to class to the exclusion of all else care more for what is usually a very superficial dogma than manifesting actual change

Without recognition and due value for the experiences of different communities, there can be no intersectionality and without intersectionality there will be no change. As you say, the Right gets this only too well

Evening All! 😊

Back from a looooong 13-mile+ walk that included a 1100ft increase in elevation. A few pics to share. First a panoramic view of a horseshoe shaped valley that probably involved something like a 150⁰ pan

@Greenseer@toot.wales avatar

A couple of pretty spots passed on the way to the viewpoint. Can anyone save me the trouble of identifying these purple flowers? I saw them safe from human hand, tucked into the rocky opposite side of the canal, in a shaded spot

Lush, shaded, narrow portion of canal, beyond point where barges can travel, desnely banked with overhanging ferns on each side. Shade by woodland all around. Canal path curving to left. Good eyes will spot a small black bird flying away, low over the canal waters, in midfield
Broad view of skyline above high hills and heathland. White clouds mostly obscuring a little blue sky
Broad view of skyline above high hills and heathland. Green valley between separated into fields by hedgerows and lines of trees. White clouds but bright sky

Another part of the bible that Christians selectively ignore..

Their own mythology clearly states that God created (hu)man as non-binary with they/them pronouns. None of that unbelievable Adam's rib lark that came later

@fkamiah17 Can't blame them. Despite the hype, I found it dull as ditchwater when I, as a non-believer, decided to give it a go. It's almost like 2000 years of stuffy old men extracted its soul. Only hypocrites and the indoctrinated would claim it as their inspiration these days

Good turnout for #Palestine demanding a #Ceasefire_Now , in our little town this morning 🇵🇸

#Wales #Cymru

Circle of perhaps 2 dozen people attending protest for Palestine and Gaza. Many holding banners demanding ceasefire now. Palestine and Pride flags
Protest in small town square before WWI war memorial. Prominent red banner in centre field calling for peace, love and life for Palestine, with white dove symbols
Similar image to last, Palestine flag visible also

Morning All!

So, I hear Switzerland won, but Ukraine and Israel won the public vote in thus supporting my view that most people harbour at least one unforgivably awful and ignorant opinion that, were I to know it, would make me go right off them 😡

Most European countries are looking at least as fucked up as the UK these days

Greenseer,
@Greenseer@toot.wales avatar

@fkamiah17 Yeah, anyone who watched it is a moral vacuum. I don't much care who follows me till I learn of their views, but if those who did watch it knew what I thought of them, they would probably give me a miss
