#MAGA #USA Minnesota GOP hold moment of silence for Derek Chauvin. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I've gained new followers off the #AI impersonation debacle, so I'd like to introduce the REAL me. I'm Dr Lindsey Fitzharris & I'm a medical historian. Yes, it's a real job! If you ever wondered how you'd treat a toothache in 1782, or what would happen if you broke a leg in 1845, I'm your gal. /1

USA in 2026.

This is the here and now: we all need to recognise the threat. Support each other now!

Amidst all the turmoil here is some positive news that will put a bounce in your step on the way to the bar or pub:

Go Habs go!

Allez Habs!

The world’s leading scientists are warning that AI could “end civilization as we know it.” 97% of Americans believe AI safety should be subject to rules. When will our government wake up?! We need global cooperation — before it’s too late.

From Trump 1.0: plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. #MAGA #USA

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

“… like a US school shooting…” OK, just so you know: the rest of the world does not consider a school shooting to be somehow less horrendous than a terror or organised criminal attack. Actually we view school shootings as more horrific. Americans are a deeply confused people.

Trump on a live broadcast: “I’m five months, OK? Five months. I would have won Vietnam very quickly, I would’ve, if I were president.” www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Just remember that US voters wanted this. It isn’t just Trump and his cabinet, this is what the US wants.

🤣🤣🤣

Tonight: certainly one of the greatest Westerns and what a score!

The United States has Trump, Britain suffered through Brexit, Johnson & Truss while Canada dodged the bullet that is “PP” for Carney.

And here we have the normal level of American thinking about war generally, about the war on Iran and American imperial agendas on erstwhile allies and Cuba. I am so thrilled to be alive as Pax America implodes over its own ignorance & hubris. Schadenfreude.

Great addition to a recent blogpost from @nworbmot.bsky.social nworbmot.org/blog/solar-b... Most of humans can go 90% solar in 2030. It's mostly northern Europe that's the edge case that also needs loads of wind. And the last 10% fuel... we'll take care of that before too long.

What? How? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Love it!

100% correct!

Operation Epic Taco

When you thought Trump couldn’t be more vulgar or ignorant. And still ~ 40% of US voters approve of Trump. This speaks volumes about the character of Americans.

Love this!

PM of Denmark Mette Frederiksen on Mark Carney: "The speech you gave in Davos, I have never experienced anything like this. I mean, people in Denmark have been talking about, they have been reading your speech. And I don't think I have ever heard so many reflections on a speech from a colleague."

On the cover of The Lancet: Editorial — “Robert F Kennedy Jr: 1 year of failure” Read the latest issue: spkl.io/63327Aa31W

“Russia can probably continue waging war for the foreseeable future,” argues Alexandra Prokopenko. “But no climber can survive the death zone indefinitely—and not all climbers who attempt the descent survive it”

America in 2026 has instituted its very own Stasi mindset.

Wow!

Happy Valentine’s Day indeed!

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

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Canada needs to learn from and perhaps replicate the efforts undertaken by France: www.politico.eu/article/fran...

"The world has changed, Washington has changed. There is almost nothing normal now in the United States - that is the truth," www.reuters.com/world/canada...

A great read from Paul Krugman open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

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. 😢

🇪🇺🇬🇱 Ursula von der Leyen: Greenland belongs to its people, so it is up to Denmark and Greenland—and only them—to decide on matters that concern Denmark and Greenland. Greenlanders can count on us.

French General Nicolas Richoux: "Greenland is the red line. If the US invades, they stop being systemic adversaries, they become enemies.” “If the US attacks Greenland, we must fight the USians.” www.tf1info.fr/replay-lci/v...
