I’m spending the day sitting in front of a laptop with your ex-husband, where we’re taking turns to refresh the live national grid energy stats until it shows 0% fossil fuels for the first time in history. When it happens we’ll nod and smile at each other then celebrate with a can of 0% Guinness.

You think it's bad here?

"All people should go back to the land where their ancestors lived" is in fact a deeply reactionary political sentiment, no matter how much you may try to dress it up as progressive and liberatory.

Sometimes I wonder if I am the only person in the world who remembers that Democrats literally impeached him twice

Why did the man with serious substance abuse issues die young, and what has it got to do with the pandemic? We are an allegedly serious new site that was touted as one of the replacements for the moribund MSM yet are completely aware of selection bias.

I wonder how much European capitals have considered what their response would be if the US uses nuclear weapons in Iran this week.

This is how he responds to every question anybody ever asks him though.

Brb going back to 2009 and telling Fox News that in 2026 the republican president ends his press statements with “praise be to allah”

There are people on here that still make fun of the libs for “Russiagate” that nonetheless think 8 or more of these 15 people will agree to remove Donald Trump from office

The winner of this war is Anthony Eden as he is no longer the dumbest imperialist of the postwar era.

because he missed

Famously, a city of satisfied people [checks notes] New York in the 1970s

Happy Easter, and happy memories of Suchard’s 1982 Doctor Who Easter Egg whose packaging designers didn’t quite think it through.

My favorite photo of the day 📸 You?

Probably the most conflict averse American president since Jimmy Carter, I hear tell

I just think it's sad that all these woke mainstream politicians won't even mention Christianity on Easter Sunday smdh

Fucking hell. Any Bluesky discourse needs to take into account what we walked away from.

Sir, a second bird is at the feeder

So he really is sure he’s losing then. He’s going to get you the biggest window Viktor

This explains a lot of what we did and didn't see in video

There's something a bit poignant about a Bluetooth device failing to connect to another device right next to it when they're the only Bluetooth devices for hundreds of thousands of kilometres around.

Maybe they can get sponsored by Fanta?

Having everyone learn therapy language was a mistake

Particularly alarming that this includes Lebanon & Gaza. I had just shared imagery from March 18 showing the demolition of villages along the southern border of Lebanon by the IDF and now not even that imagery is available: bsky.app/profile/godi... Mass demolitions haven't stopped in Gaza, either.

At exactly the time China is massively ramping up R&D investment.

The reason I'm so angry at the Green price cap guff (and indeed more so at the inadequate action of the government) is that if you're deeply worried about what's going to be happening shortly, you're still not worried enough:

Politics is over guys, I figured it out.

All time Hall of Fame quote.

Perfect no notes

Roald Dahl was not, in fact, just criticizing Israel.

LOOKS LIKE GHOUL-POSTING IS BACK ON THE MENU BOUS

when you are so anti-imperialist you declare it to be an objective to liquidate a completely different country's democratically elected government

ZELENSKYY: Russia started war, committed war crimes, occupied part of our country. It's not just land — it's homes, people's lives. They stole childhood from our children. That's why, when we are asked what compromises we are ready to make, it sounds UNBELIEVABLY STRANGE to us.

the crucial division here is between the unhappy fans who just go “welp, it do be like that sometimes, gonna go write a fix-it fic about it,” and the unhappy fans who angrily demand that the show itself change to meet their expectations

Wonderful opening to this Nitro. #wcw99

My geography is terrible but are they now trying to annex land not close to their border from two different countries?

Either it's happening (positive) or it's happening (extremely negative)

Russia’s aviation agency says airports in Penza and Saratov have restricted arrivals and departures. Meanwhile, Crimean Wind reports a powerful explosion in Crimea’s Saky district that looks like a strike.

The industry should try not giving sexual abusers big stand up specials to do their hilarious 'can I just shock you? sexually abusing people is great and fun, also it's mean to cancel and silence me for sexual abuse' material for a change & see what happens

Untranslated headlines in German are much clearer than New York Times headlines in English

Honestly I've let dozens of these go but this endless stream of antisemitism just proves everything I was saying in the post. (For the hard of thinking the ambulances were used for the whole community regardless of religion, and even if they weren't racist arson would still be unacceptable.)

Seems to me if you think you have divine sanction for your warmongering when it goes badly you have to consider the opposite proposition but they never seem to!

They know how to hit us where it really hurts. Whatever they want, give it to them.

This is correct and I would add the latter include people who want to do "Tumblr for politics" which, I need not state, is a fucking terrible idea

Fundamentally Labour went into the last election with a manifesto containing incompatible pledges. So the question was “will they abandon their tax pledges to meet their public service improvement pledges or vice versa?” Kinda fun that their answer has been “how about we abandon both?”

Not to defend Liz Kendall too much, but I am fascinated by the diagnosis of the government's woes that run through her as a primary cause.

Literally this was the take of Marx.

I think everyone would agree that the police and MPs shouldn’t be shoplifting.
