Chester: Same-sex penguin couple hatch rare chick at zoo.
Scampi and Flounder, a pair of male penguins, "stepped in to help raise one of two eggs laid by another penguin pair, Wotsit and Peach", the zoo said.
The chicks are said to now be days away from taking to the water for the first time.
Bird experts at the zoo carefully shared the eggs between the two nests to help give both chicks the best possible start and to help improve the chances of successful fledging.

Sur le front de l’Ukraine, c’est pas plus reluisant qu’un frigidaire vide un lendemain de party. Trump voulait régler ça en quelques jours, genre “Salut, c’est moi, on signe où ?”. Résultat ? Il a fait des câlins à Poutine, il a menacé l’Ukraine comme un ado qui menace de bouder, il a rêvé d’un cessez-le-feu… et six mois plus tard, on retient juste une chose : Poutine s’en balance et fait ce qu’il veut.
On dirait même qu’il entend pas Trump parler. Peut-être qu’il capte juste les aigus, comme un chien ? Hier, Trump a jappé au téléphone avec Poutine… et le Russe a répondu en lâchant une attaque massive de drones, comme pour dire : “Ouais ouais, continue de jaser, moi j’ai des trucs sérieux à faire.”
Quand Trump s’impatiente, Poutine lui lance une balle de laine, comme à un chat obèse pour qu’il se fatigue. Un coup Trump grogne et joue au dur, un coup il veut inviter Poutine au G7 pour recréer le G8, comme s’ils allaient faire un BBQ entre potes. Pendant ce temps-là, Vlad s’amuse comme un gamin qui a trouvé le bouton “Reset” d’une console.

In fact, the problem nobody wants to admit is that while our political pussycats play with our lives, it's us, the people, who are the losers.
And it doesn't matter which side you're on - Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese, Western - we're all in the same shit.

What is heartening is the overwhelming degree of support for Laffy, demonstrating the collective power of Mastodon to pull together to defend valued members of our community.
This episode just underscores that what we have built here is precious. Here, we the people, are in control not the billionaires.

"Israel’s Channel 14 reported on Wednesday that the current proposal includes a side letter from Trump"
"The document would give Israel the green light to "renew the fire if our demands with regards to the disarmament of Hamas and the exile of its leaders are not met""
"Israel would be able to interpret, define and make a judgment call on these terms"
Like I said in a thread, this is no ceasefire. It's just theatre.
