A while ago I made a short film. I've just rediscovered it. Not too dusty.

He looks like he's about to say, "Nice restaurant you got here. Shame if something happened to it." ๐คฃ
Any idea who this kid grew up to be? โค๏ธ

๐ Max has spent more than half his life waiting for a second chance.
When Max (#LA0003) was just a puppy, he was adopted, only to be heartbreakingly returned five months later because he had "too much energy." That was more than four and a half years ago... and now, at 6 years old, Max is still waiting for someone to see the incredible dog he's become.
When Max first arrived, he was timid and unsure of the world around him. But thanks to the patience, training, and dedication of our Pet Behavior team, he's blossomed into a loyal, loving Labrador/Hound mix who has learned to trust and is ready to give his whole heart to the right person.
Max is happiest when he's stretching his legs, exploring, and then curling up beside his favorite human after a day of adventure. He's looking for an experienced adopter who can continue building his confidence, with a large fenced-in yard where he can run, play, and simply be a dog. Max would do best as the only pet in an adult-only home.
Every day, Max watches other dogs leave for their forever homes, wondering when it will finally be his turn.
We know his person is out there. Maybe they just haven't met him yet.
For more information on Max, please email [email protected] or come our Port Washington, NY Adoption Center and see why everyone who knows him believes he's worth the wait. His forever family could be just one visit away. ๐๐พ

PLEASE RETWEET FOR RESCUE SPACE.
PLEASE NOTE THIS BOY IS IN AUTHORITY CARE ( COUNCIL POUND ) SO CAN ONLY BE RELEASED TO A REPUTABLE RESCUE #KENT #UK
This lad is seven years old and is very fat, his owner struggled with his general care.
He is a very sweet lad and behaved well at the vets for his vaccinations.
He is vaccinated and parasite treated.
He has dog tested well, I have a video for interested rescues.
Thai lad needs an understanding place as is is sensitive, although he has been well behaved since he has been in the system, there is some history, I can elaborate on with rescues.
Nice older boy in need of a chance. Have any of our rescues got a space?

i'd like to add that the trees they cut down illegally? oh yea sold em back to finnish & international organisations for estimated millions of euros :DD
โA gaping wound of earthโ ๐ ๐
Google illegally knocked down 250,000 trees in Finland to build a data center. @nonewdatacenters

URGENT APPEAL โ FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED FOR TOBY & MILO . PLEASE SHARE TO HELP THESE TWO LOVELY LITTLE BOYS FIND THEIR BEST LIFE! Meet gorgeous Toby & Milo, two Chihuahua x Jack Russell boys who need to come into rescue through absolutely no fault of their own. Milo (black boy) is 11 years young and currently around 6.8kg. He could do with losing a little weight (bless him! ) and ideally should be around 5.5kg. Toby (tan boy) is 10 years young and a tiny 3.8kg. They may be older gentlemen, but please don't scroll past them because of their ages!
These two have plenty of life, love and adventures left in them and deserve the chance to live their very BEST LIVES. They appear to get along with other dogs, subject to successful meets. They've been fine with cats belonging to family members. They've previously lived with young children, but because they're getting older we'd ideally like a slightly quieter home with children aged 8+. Younger visiting children or grandchildren should be absolutely fine. We would LOVE to find Toby & Milo a home together if possible.Their dream home would give them plenty of love and cuddles, regular walks and little adventures, and a nice, secure garden where they can potter, play and enjoy themselves. And we want their new family to have as much reassurance as possible about their health. Both boys will be.... Neutered Fully vaccinated Given a full dental, including a clean and polish. Given full blood tests. Fully health checked by our vet. They currently have no known health issues.Toby & Milo are fussy, loving, friendly little boys who just want someone to give them the chance they deserve.
Could you open your home and heart to these two little gentlemen โ either as a foster home or their forever family?

Please, please always share our adoptable pet posts. You never know who you'll inspire to visit their local shelter. #dogs #cats #adoptdontshop
Let's meet another one of our #dogs who is in foster! Sadly, Scoobert has been at PAWS for nearly his entire life. Scoobert was first found in front of PAWS as an abandoned puppy. He has been adopted and returned a few times, through no fault of his own. (full story in Alt Text)
ALT Let's meet another one of our dogs who is in foster! Sadly, Scoobert has been at PAWS for nearly his entire life. Scoobert was first found in front of PAWS as an abandoned puppy. He has been adopted and returned a few times, through no fault of his own. Scoobert has a big heart and even a bigger love for cuddles. He is great with dogs, cats, kids, and is both crate and house trained. This playful, energetic dog loves to romp with other dogs and has a goofy personality to match. He's made great progress with his manners and is eager to please, though he'll need continued leash training. Scoobert would thrive in an active home that will give him plenty of exercise and, of course, snuggles. Please take a moment to share this post to help Scoobert find his fur-ever home! โค #dogs #adoptdontshop

It's an act of ecocide plain and simple. Google should be condemned to plant one million trees or els pay a fine for others to do that. And remember, a young sprout is not the same as a centuries old forest. Forests are communication networks and information storages. With infinitely more benefit to the human race than Google.
THERE IS NO MINIMALISING THIS. THIS IS AN ILLEGAL ACT THAT CAUSED CRIMINAL DAMAGE ON AN INDUSTRIAL SCALE. 250,000 trees would be bad enough. The total is closer to 400,000.
I'm with @GarryBushell on this. Not just the first punk single but a transcendent and timeless rock single. I still play it and it still gives me goosebumps.

On 22nd Oct 1976, I bought New Rose by The Damned. It was the first punk single, it was on Stiff Records & it blew my mind. I still have it 50 years on & it still does. If there's any music this ferocious & exciting around now, Iโd love to hear about it. #punkrock #thedamned

THEY DID NOT HAVE GOVERNMENT PERMISSION.
They know they donโt risk anything because theyโre too big for consequences.
Allowing private companies to amass power greater than entire countries was a huge mistake.
Humanity needs to correct its course ASAP.
Neil Norman retweeted
The thing about Google clearing a forest in Finland without permits is that they decided that whatever fine they might face is worth it. It doesnโt cost them as much as not getting the land cleared.
Because like ALL things, if the punishment is a fine, it isnโt really illegal for rich people.

Late night twisted animated bonus.
I will never write enough that Czechia, to me, produces some the most interesting animated movies. And not just the incredible Jan ล vankmajer.
Here's the twisted, dark, surreal and wonderful Jednรฉ noci v jednom mฤstฤ (One night in one city), 2007 by Jan Balej.
DVD remux, Czech audio with english subtitles.
As usual if you like it buy the dvd or just retweet to give it some light.
