Happy Valentine’s Day indeed!

I was of the opinion that the overall level of pure crazy on Bluesky was minimal, then this:

Hey football fans: thinking of visiting the World Cup in Trumpland this year? Be careful: don’t be walking on the sidewalk or you could be assaulted with chemical agents. #MAGA

And now a moment away from the horrible ugliness of reality:

MAGA doing #MAGA. Definitely ICE agents need to be barred from entering Canada, the UK, EU and any other rule of law nation. Personally I’d permanently bar any Trump administration appointee from entering civilised world.

77 million voted for Trump in ‘24 even after the Covid debacle and the insurrection in 2021. 3 time GOP candidate for President. It is clear to me where this is going given that Congress has abandoned its responsibilities.

A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — something they've done to other judges around the world

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. 😢

Minchinhampton common oak with a parasitic holly? Any arborists care to comment? The branch carrying the holly is approx 3 m from the ground. #oak #holly #minchinhampton

Why wasn’t the announcement made at the Trump - Kennedy centre? #failedstate #shithole

I love gingerbread!

Thinking of a trip to Trumpland? Think again: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/t...

If you had asked me to believe a US President could give such a response prior to 2016 I’d have not believed it. Given Trump has been elected twice we must all accept that Trump is not an electoral aberration; Trump reflects the will of the American people. Trump is America.

Why do I find this so very amusing? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tonight my time from @thebulletin.org Experts React - Netflix’s A House of Dynamite m.youtube.com/watch?v=i8zB...

Happy Halloween!

A great post!

From Yale Climate Connections today:

This is an example of the level of ignorance of Trump supporters. The poster can’t connect the name Nobel with the prize, that there are defined criterion to met to be awarded a prize. Just a giant conspiracy against hero Trump.

PM of Albania having a good laugh with President of Azerbaijan and Macron about Trump repeatedly claiming that he ended the war between their two countries which were not at war with each other.
