  6. The #Beach at #Minehead is on the southern shore of the #BristolChannel, which eventually leads out to the #IrishSea. The town has this interesting #hill, which reminded me of the #Whale in #TerryGilliam's film #TimeBandits (if you know, you know). It think it’s a very distinctive natural feature.

  11. I'm happy to read that the wale story in the news is no longer the first place, and now it's mostly participants in the hype blaming each other for all sorts of things. Let's hope for the best.

  12. Seagulls pick at the remains of a young adult female Gray whale, on the beach at MacKerricher State Park, as the waves begin to reclaim it. A volunteer at the site said scientists took a portion of her spine to study, because it had an unusual curvature. She may have starved to death, as many have, due to ocean heating killing off food sources. She was originally discovered on Wednesday, freshly dead. #MendocinoCoast #whale

    A #whale stranded in #Germany #Deutschland and people are trying to save #Timmy the #humpbackWhale by barging it to the #NorthSea

    Nice feel good story, right?

    No

    The effort is funded by a #rightWing agenda

    What?

    It's a political trap

    If the left reacts sour, the average German gets angry at that and it's a right wing win

    By using plutocrat money, and capturing the popular imagination, the right is creating political-emotional theater

    The left must react carefully

  14. After 39 days in the Baltic Sea, humpback #Timmy [ #Hope ] is finally on his way home.
    Timmy's destination is the open Atlantic Ocean and hopefully a new life among a humpback family. Have a good trip ...

  15. Just finished the book «Evenings and Weekends» by Oisín McKenna. I really enjoyed it!

    Funnily it also tells a little side story about a whale stranded in the River Thames a few years ago.

    People never seem to learn from the past.

    (Btw, Willy died. Here's the full story: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Th)

  17. Whale watching in Monterey Bay last weekend. Three moms and their calves form pod CA51, plus Jimmy from CA50 hanging around, showing off a huge dorsal fin. The moms would surface and then the calves would surface right next to them. I found the calves chubby and cute (caveat: I'm not a sea lion).

  18. #CapeCod researcher from #WHOI says newly found 1949 #whale recording is critical discovery: "I hit play on that WAV file and it was goosebumps. The recording starts, and the voice comes on, and he says 'It's the 7th of March, 1949, a little note about the #hydrophone, and then you hear the plop. And then right there is the song. I'm getting goosebumps right now thinking about it."
    Scientists now believe it could be the oldest recorded whale song ever discovered.

  25. Ich verstehe nicht, worauf sie warten.

    Wenn meine Idee stimmt (siehe post hieroben) können sie innerhalb von 30 Minuten eine Hülle unter den Wal rollen und ihn hinausschleppen.

    Da braucht man keine bagger, Taucher und den ganzen Zirkus.

  30. CW: 🧵 13/13 To get the dimension of this rescue. A couple of pictures.

    ... still difficult for me to apprehend. 😳
    The humpback is as long as the high of a 4 story building …
    and … as heavy as 4 female grown up elephants.

    Curious detail. The DIXI-WC on the Ponton is partly produces of old fishing nets. 😃

  31. I'm counting the days when we can successfully communicate with sperm whales 🐳. We will finally be able to apologise for almost making them extinct because of our thirst for money and "progress".

    And we could tell them one of the greatest books ever written by our civilization is about them! 😍

    Melville would be proud. 🫶🏾

  32. I'm really curious if they will be using my idea or not for the private initiative to get the strandet whale in Poel moving.

    There's no details but it sounds like it. I've send the idea weeks ago to Seashepherd, Greenpeace and Whales.org but non of them showed interest.

    Let's see what happends here. :)

  33. Wir wissen ja, dass die Gaming-Branche eine dreckige Branche ist. Mittlerweile wird das große Geld mit Free-to-Play-Titeln gemacht. Lootboxen und virtuelle Währungen sind Ideen aus der Glücksspielbranche, und wie dort macht man seinen größten Umsatz mit wenigen Spieler:innen, den Whales (Wikipedia). Hier steht der Verdacht im Raum, dass man für Glücksspiel anfällige Menschen gnadenlos ausnimmt und ins Unglück stürzt.

    Eine kriminelle Bande hat interne Daten der Firma Rockstar Games veröffentlicht, die das Verhalten der Branche zu bestätigen scheinen. Mit GTA Online nimmt das Unternehmen täglich rund 1,3 Millionen US-Dollar ein. Satte 75% der Einnahmen stammen dabei von den Shark Cash Cards, der virtuellen Währung. Die restlichen 26% stammen von den Menschen, die eine GTA+ Membership abschließen.

    Und, wie viele Whales sorgen für den Umsatz von jährlich ca eine halbe Milliarde US-Dollar? Schwer zu sagen. Aber wir wissen jetzt, dass nur ein ganz kleiner Anteil der Spieler:innen überhaupt Geld für Shark Cash Cards und GTA+ ausgibt: 4%.

    Rockstar Games ganzer Umsatz bei GTA Online kommt also von lediglich 4% der aktiven Nutzer:innen.

    Das klingt nicht gesund. Für die Menschen, die zu den vier Prozent zählen.

  34. The #whale was discovered Saturday near Raymond, Washington, in the Willapa River, which feeds into the #ocean at Willapa Bay. A number of #GrayWhales are currently in the bay on their 5,000-mile (8,000-kilometer) spring migration from birthing grounds in Baja California, Mexico, north to feeding grounds in Alaska.

  35. CW: 🧵4/4 After the humpback was freed from a sandbank in Lübecker Bucht

    boats guided him north. That way the young male humpback escaped a fishing boat. Then he got stuck again on a sandbank (near Wismar) and was able to free himself with the rising sea level.

    He stayed in shallow waters for 2 days with reduced movement and breathing. Yesterday night he swam again. First towards Wismar harbor, then back to sea.
