Mildly amusing memory: when I worked at the Bank of England in the 90s the offices got *really* hot in summer. But you couldn't just ask for a fan, you had to show a need (and you couldn't bring in your own plug-in fan because electrical safety). I asked for a fan and a bloke from maintenance /

Dollaren er den seneste periode blevet styrket - hvor den igen måske alligevel anses som en sikker havn. De voldsomme told-elementer som Trump havde forsøgt sat i sving er også svækket betragteligt. Og så har Kina måske også mindre held med at gøre deres valuta central. bsky.app/profile/agat...

I hear from a reliable source that a solar farm in Cornwall is currently offline because the UK's electricity grid infrastructure cannot take the extra - free - power at present. The UK is wasting an abundance of sunshine. Do better. (Same for Ireland and everywhere else.)

Amazing how much coverage the heat - and the symptoms of climate change - is getting on outlets like the BBC but how little coverage is typically given over to the causes of climate change. If there's such a strong public appetite for news on the symptoms, why not the causes? An ostrich effect?

No está escrito en ningún sitio que haya que ir a la batalla del siglo contra la extrema derecha detrás de gente salpicada hasta las cejas de corrupción.

Any editor posting a photo of crowded beaches to illustrate a heatwave in which no sensible person should be outdoors between 10am and 7pm should be sent to that location and forced to stand there for the duration until they get the point.

Can we also conclude now that the strategy of centrist parties for twenty years emulating the far right and adopting their anti-migration agenda with the aim to fight the far-right has FAILED SPECTACULARLY? It has on the contrary helped the rise of far-right parties

Not so strange bedfellows: An aspiring MAGA influencer’s Russian friend turns out to be an FSB officer with ties to the Wagner Group Elizabeth Lane appears to have a close personal relationship with Dmitry Grizdak, an intelligence officer registered to the same address as Navalny’s poisoners.

I am BEGGING people - think tanks, governments, random organisations - to DATE YOUR REPORTS WHEN YOU DO THE PDFS. It should not be THIS HARD to find a BLOODY PUBLICATION DATE. You might think everyone will remember the magical day you published it years later. But you are delusional.
