'The Minnesota man who was killed by federal agents on Saturday has been identified as Alex Pretti, 37, a registered nurse working in the intensive care unit at the Minneapolis VA Health Care System, which serves veterans.'

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed. www.startribune.com/detained-by-...

Sat working in a cafe in Alty. Just saw a young lad walking his gran out of the cafe and offering his arm to her. She didn’t take it saying she didn’t want people to get the wrong idea 😂♥️

Pakistan imported a spectacular 50GW of solar modules in just 3 years. That's 200% of its entire unreliable, blackout-prone fossil fuel fleet. Renewables are affordable and transformative. They turn up slowly, then suddenly ... and then LNG is dumped www.pv-magazine.com/2026/01/20/p...

I’m not someone who has ever needed to imagine I had my own skin in the game to care about what’s being done to other people but fuck me does this stuff hit even harder when your brain refuses not to swap in your own little boy and freak out. Jfc.

He is five years old. He has the same name as my now-adult son. They used him as bait for his father—who does not have a deportation order. His family did not know where he was for nearly 24 hours. He is five. Years. Old. He probably says “I’m this many years old.” He has a cute hat.

I made my own granola today for the first time. Had no idea how smug and sanctimonious it was going to make me feel.

And yet I got nothing from the United squad for Everton at home.

I think part of the reason everyone is so blown away by this Carney speech is it's so long since we heard an actual grown-up articulate serious thoughts about the world. Empty vessels have been making a lot of noise

CONFIRMED: Oxford University Press has announced Peace as Oxford Children’s Word of the Year 2025, with six-seven crowned Children’s Slang Word of the Year. 35% of children chose peace, followed by a third (33%) choosing AI & 21% opting for resilience. #OxfordCWOTY @oxfordeducation.bsky.social

Congratulations to Aida Youth Centre and all who supported them. Brilliant campaigning that put Infantino and Ceferin under serious pressure. This is a symbolic victory amid a much wider tragedy that FIFA amd UEFA have done nothing to arrest. www.nytimes.com/athletic/698...

Would have this framed and on my wall.

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, post the 2nd sentence. “In my first season he had promised ‘La Décima’, which we delivered and also we won the Copa del Rey, but I knew that the president only really cared about the Champions League.”

For those of you who don’t know much about children’s publishing, the only real “marketing and promotion” plan most publishers have for non-famous authors is that we go out and promote the book on schools ourselves. If you do the maths, this isn‘t a great strategy but I can’t even do this

Aww, I thought going 2-0 up against City made us special.

How many points do we think is enough for 5th? 67ish?

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

A conversation I’m having a little too often: I say I want guns banned so a guy replies “we need them because of the second amendment” I ask “is that the one where you need guns to stand up to a tyrannical regime?” He says “yes.” So I ask “so are you using it right now?” And then he blocks me

At least the commentators have spared us the ‘scenes no one wants to see’ line.

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.

I will never understand why they give Anthony Taylor the derby. Everyone knows he’s United. It’s fucking mental, and it works against us more often than not.
