I know what it’s like to be 80. We have reason to worry about Trump’s health. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jun/01/trump-what-its-like-to-be-80

Did you know that parts of Europe hit 40°C this May? That's nearly 16°C above the typical spring average in places like London! These shocking satellite images reveal just how intense this heatwave has been. What does this mean for our climate? 🌍

Marie Wilcox, the last fluent speaker of Wukchumni, learned to use a computer and created a dictionary containing more than 4,000 words. Her work helped preserve an endangered Indigenous language for future generations.

Shel Silverstein is famous for his children’s poetry and illustrations. In poem Lazy Jane the word "rain" hovers just above Jane’s open mouth, as the string of words above it seems to represent the trickle of water she longs for. ⏰📚💙 #poetry #reading #poem #poet #Silverstein #graficpoem #Lazy

There has never been a bigger crybaby bitch than Donald John Trump. What a pathetic loser.

"The abuse of the [Gaza] flotilla activists is therefore not an aberration. It is the predictable behaviour of a [Israeli] system that has learned it can kill, rape, humiliate and starve people without consequence." — AJOpinion by @elmasry_mohamad ⤵️ www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social is very well read. I wonder has he seen this new title?

here's today's post: "the January 6 rioters are about to get millions, and We the People can go fuck ourselves" — why do we even have laws, if some shithead gets to ignore them? thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

The default assumption should be that anything that this administration says is a lie until proven otherwise. Tяump lies about everything.

In just months, Zohran Mamdani has shown what politics looks like when leaders actually try governing for ordinary people instead of donors and cable news panels. Affordable housing, childcare, transit, workers’ dignity and immigrant protection are not “radical” ideas.

❤️‍🩹The reunion of two loyal friends after a long separation – a Ukrainian soldier and his dog. First, the dog seemed to scold him for being away so long. Then it started hugging him. I’m not crying. Something just got in my eye.

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

Easily, the most corrupt president in history:

Sometimes the poems I write aren’t the ones I intend to write.

#OTD in 1966 Dad delivered his speech "Don't Sleep Through the Revolution" in Hollywood, FL, and warned that the greatest danger is staying passive while injustice advances. That warning echoes clearly today.

Why is our cat doing this? Ollie, a ginger tom (8 years) who is neutered can spend up to 30 mins at a time doing this several times a day.

💯💯 boom. Truth 👏👏💙

The oxygen that keeps us alive comes from natural ecosystems: half on land, half at sea. It's not complicated: we are TOTALLY dependent on the living world. Yet it's still treated as nothing but 'resources', to exploit and destroy for profit.

Approximately 590,000 people put down a $100 deposit for the Trump Mobile T1 smartphone, collecting roughly $59 million in advance payments. However, as of May 2026, not a single T1 phone has been delivered to customers. www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-...

Q: Why has the cost of the ballroom doubled? Trump: I doubled the size of it, you dumb person **** People are not dumb you stupid f***, we see through your BS. We call you out and you resolve to your old strategy of insulting us to avoid answering the questions you don’t like.

Yep, nothing like admitting you’re a criminal.

Very impressive performance by @cmckinnellmp.bsky.social on Newsnight as I look in from Ireland. One to watch for the future....

stats for Irish politics watchers: applications from students in the south/RoI to study for their undergraduate degree at Queen's in the north/NI have steadily climbed from 1,279 in 2021 to 2,275 in 2025. This year, that figure is looking to be another *40% higher*...

The golden age of corruption.

Many sadly concluded we had to go through Brexit before people saw what a horrendous act of self-harm they had committed. I'm terrified the same thing will happen with #Reform - that people will vote for them without realising they've just screwed over their country, loved ones and themselves.

Once again because I picked up a few new followers.

Seems they got their marching orders 🫡 👇🏽

Everyone immediately assuming that an attempt on the President is staged is probably not a sign of a healthy democracy.
