Some teens in 🇰🇪 Kenya came up with a clever idea: they turned #FarmWaste into a filter that helps cut harmful vehicle exhaust 🌱. What started as a school project ended up winning awards and tackling #AirPollution at the same time.

For the first time, #solar generated more electricity than #coal in the 🇺🇸 U.S. 🌞 Not that long ago coal was king, so seeing solar pull ahead shows how fast the energy mix is changing.

There's a whole lot of doom and gloom on BSky. I'm not saying people shouldn't care or not be angry about various things. Not at all. It's just that it's important to have a more balanced perspective of Life and Humanity. We need more people like @0lsi.bsky.social who post exclusively positive stuff

🎶 Oops, I did it again 🎶

If this isn't weird enough for you, then there's a version with a 6-string bass on top.

If you've got 50 grand stashed under your mattress, then you can go to Nashville and pick this baby up.

Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, but to see Reform, and even better, Restore get a beating was very heaven.

A Good Friday. This evening’s toast will be to the people of Makerfield who shunned Reform, trounced Restore and had a fox on the podium.

ALDI has calory-reduced salted caramel ice cream that's amazing and can be eaten even in broad daylight ... and at least at ALDI Nord it's on offer as of tomorrow for €2.99. Clear the freezer.

Trump holds all the cards but the Iranians are playing chess

"You must make women count as much as men; you must have an equal standard of morals & the only way to enforce that is through giving women political power so that you can get that equal moral standard registered in the laws of the country. It is the only way" Emmeline Pankhurst, who died #OTD 1928

Trump: "The congressional medal of honor -- I wanted to give it to myself, but I was informed I couldn't do it." (note the audible discomfort of his audience)

Nigel Farage accused of under-declaring value of private jet loan from crypto billionaire

Untouched pint - check England flags - check All the ingredients to convince my gullible fans that I like beer, give a shit about football and have anything remotely in common with them.

Memo to pretty much (but obviously not quite) everybody in the media…

Tribute at the #WorldCup to the 168 innocent girls MURDERED by US forces under the command of #TrumpThePaedo.

This is an embarrassing image for the UK. A self-respecting British fox should be dragging Binface's contents out over the stage

If he doesn’t win something soon, I wonder whether Nigel Farage will retire to spend more time with other people’s money.

And here was me thinking that Paul Bearer was dead.

The $1.7 million no-bid contract to clean the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool went to a company ultimately owned by Trump donor John J. Cafaro, who previously pleaded guilty in separate federal cases involving bribery and campaign finance violations. The company's name? Greenwater Services.

Richard Tice's excuse for Reform losing is that Reform voters voted for Andy Burnham!?🤨 At this point, Reform would rather rewrite the laws of political gravity than accept the simple fact that most people can't stand the party, and many can't stand Farage and Tice even more.🔥

Do you reckon reform put a plumber up in makerfield cos they lost to one in Gorton and Denton and were like ‘ah, that’s the problem, we needed a *plumber*’

So people protested against a Labour Prime Minister, and a Labour government by voting -errrm- Labour? Is that it, Nigel? Or could it just be that there aren't as many gullible racists in Makerfield as you hoped? I'm Green, not Labour. But that 'argument' is laughable🤣 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Yes, it definitely definitely wasn’t because the voters of #Makerfield decided to reject the racism, misogyny and lies and misinformation that Reform and Kenyon and Farage spew on a daily basis… Nope, definitely not that, Nige… 🤪🤡😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Whatever the precise reasons for voters’ choices at Makerfield, the result highlights an existential truth. The far right will always lose if voters consolidate their support behind one candidate who stands for the UK’s democracy and constitutional order. If voters don’t, the far right will win.

🔴 Burnham Wins Makerfield: Can 'Politics of Place' Now Offer an Antidote to the Poverty of Possibility? "Thatcher closed the pits with little provision for alternatives. Few benefited from New Labour's aspiration. The area was abandoned to itself" @peterjukes.bsky.social @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social

As one Reform MP said of Makerfield voters’ reaction on the doorstep: “We were either too racist or not racist enough.” Excellent by @johnharris1969.bsky.social in Makerfield on why Reform is (thankfully) losing momentum and the challenge for Nigel Farage ahead. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

🚨 Makerfield voted 65% Leave in 2016 - today, voters would choose to rejoin the EU.

We forgot the hard lessons we were supposed to have learned from Vietnam and our Forever Wars - "You cannot win a war with massive military superiority alone" We have always failed at regime change and "win the hearts and minds", strategies. The problem with Trump was there was no one to stop him.

Here are Italian PM Meloni's remarks about Trump, translated to English: "Donald Trump's statements are completely made up. I am frankly stunned. I don't know why the president of the United States behaves this way with his own allies..."

The smiles

The world has changed. Britain can’t afford to be left on the sidelines. Join us and fight to put Britain back at the heart of Europe.

Epsom, Ewell, Ashtead & Leatherhead deserve better trains - & next week, you can do something about it! SWR is consulting on a full timetable refresh - the first since 2004 - and they’ll be at London Waterloo on Thursday 25 June, 2pm - 8pm, to hear from passengers directly. 1/3

This is exactly the kind of opportunity we’ve been waiting for. We are a commuter town. Our residents deserve a train service that reflects that - and that means restoring the frequency we had before Covid. 2/3

If you use trains to Central London, please go and make your voice heard. The more people who turn up and demand better, the harder it is for SWR to ignore us. Can’t make it in person? Fill in the online form instead - every response counts! 3/3 www.southwesterntimetable.com

Hard data proves what we’ve known for years: Brexit trade barriers are actively throttling our growth, dealing a self-inflicted 6% blow to the economy. It’s a total disaster for our public services and standard of living. #Brexit #RejoinEU www.independent.co.uk/news/busines...

Everyone on X and elsewhere who called for a violent response should be charged with incitement. Everyone involved in the pogrom should be locked up with exemplary sentences. Govt should make it clear that will be the response in future anywhere else. Enough.

History shows us there are 2 options when faced with a rising far right. 1. Deal with it quickly and decisively. 2. Let it win. The great majority reject it. But it doesn't need majority support: just enough thugs to intimidate everyone else. Weakness and indecision by government let it rise.

Haha. Watch to the end

Well, there's a respected organisation going down the pan

Another one of Trump's personal lawyers was just confirmed as a federal appeals court judge. Justin Smith was Trump's lead attorney at the Supreme Court in the effort to upend the millions of dollars in damages that E. Jean Carroll won against Trump for sexual abuse and defamation.
