Sweden's new edible road salt is saving birds from deadly dehydration. Made with beet extract and maize starch, it melts ice while feeding wildlife during brutal winters. The eco-salt also leaves fewer chemical residues in runoff water, benefiting nearby soil and streams. (Via Protect All Wildlife)

Man who started his career by promoting a zero tolerance stance on crime reaches the 'how it's going' part of his meme.

YOU LET MATT GOODWIN RUN A YOUTH WING?!

While going through the proofs for "The British General Election of 2024" (out very soon!) I came across this - Paul Johnson of the IFS's verdict on Labour's manifesto last year. Labour's current attempts to claim the need to break their tax pledges was impossible to forsee don't stack up

Laurence Fox says foreigners shouldn't wear poppies,so I went ahead and got one just to spite him.

🧐

The Forstater case broke something fundamentally in our democracy and nobody cared because it was happening to those fucking trannies at the time.

The one bit I like about Trump being President is that when things aren't going well for him he really lets you know it. He has been posting like this everyday since the Virginia/New Jersey/NYC etc elections

“The average left winger in America would be considered right wing in Europe” That’s not really tr- “Actually, that’s not true, the average left wing European is a blood and soil nationalist that JD Vance would consider extreme” Oh, for the love of God

As time goes on I increasingly feel that Starmer's lack of knowledge and interest in economics is actually one of his flaws that deserves more attention in this moment in time. So much easier to wishcast reality.

The current Danish government is a coalition of the Social Democrats, the party that has been their main opponent for the premiership since the 90s and a breakaway party from the latter led by the Prime Minister they beat to win power.

Jesus Christ It said it was sending him a real person to help and then went LOL no just kidding I can’t do that

The western mind cannot comprehend this

If you want a vision of the future, imagine Alan Carr's boot stamping on a human face forever.

Joe's face when he saw Nick had voted for him. #CelebrityTraitors

Romanians stay winning

Yes, celebrities do play Traitors differently from regular contestants... and here's the political science to prove it https://hardboardscrookedtimbers.org/yes-celebrities-do-play-traitors-differently-from-regular-contestants-and-heres-the-political-science-to-prove-it/

if you're ever Photoshopping your own face into the smoke of the Twin Towers, Adobe should have a pop-up that says "are you sure that whatever it is you're doing is a good idea"

"Radical Democrat Congress" Brb, just checking the result of last year's elections again.

“Yes, but what does he really want…?”

If this is your chief plan you're operating on very dangerous premises

The funniest reactions to the elections are the Republicans on Twitter saying stuff like “well after Jay Jones won, we are never taking scandals seriously again, we will nominate candidates who have no morals and say anything!!!” - like I’m just not sure anyone is going to notice the difference

Only, oh God, three years to go

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

As someone who has some attachment to North Carolina this account is slowly going to morph into a Roy Cooper fan account over the next 12 months

A nation wakes up and says "wait, we made WHO president? FOR A SECOND TIME?!"

LOL

Dick Cheney would be loving this

interesting how for all the threats and noises, Trump is responding to Republicans losing by angrily and impotently tweeting about how Republicans lost! Almost like elections... aren't.... over???

The haters said I couldn't do it and they were correct. Honestly, great call from the haters.

What happens when you distill 2025 into a single social media post? This. This is what you get.

Not sure who will win out in the New York mayoralty, but I'm hearing some *very* confident noises from Susan Hall's team.

VP Cheney will be honoured with a 21 gun salute accidentally aimed directly at 21 of his friends

Which Whittington apologised to Cheney for www.theguardian.com/world/2006/f...

Love how this reads like a LinkedIn post about the grindset mindset.

I will support any New York mayoral candidate who admits bodegas are just convenience stores and everywhere in the world has them

Just couldn't resist doing a racist dog whistle with his endorsement could he.

The problem with diagnosing "the electorate have unreasonable expectations around tax and spend" is that those expectations did not develop in a vacuum. They are the product of decades of politicians and the media telling them they can have x services with y tax levels, or not contradicting it.

Who let Trump talk to Kemi Badenoch

F. Scott Fitzgerald: In my book I invented Gatsby lifestyle as a cautionary tale The president: At long last, we have created the Gatsby lifestyle from the classic novel The Great Gatsby

Having a -19 approval rating with 54% DKs is almost impressive.

Being friends with Dan is a trip because he's simultaneously one of the smartest and one of the dumbest people you'll ever meet at the same time

A pastry, a coffee or a sweet once a week? Lah di dah
