Slick has been given a reprint --now with a fancy sticker on the cover. If you want to understand Why We Are Like This on climate change, or read about things like that one time the oil and gas industry spied on the son of a prime minister, and you haven't picked up a copy, now's your chance!

Over at the ICC, Hungary has submitted its response in the noncompliance proceedings arising from its failure to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu during his recent visit. Hungary's response is legally flawed and will not avoid a noncompliance finding. Short 🧵 below.

👉 We demand justice. We demand accountability. We demand an end to the dehumanisation of racialised communities, in France and in Europe, and finally address systemic racism in anti-racism policies and legislation. 👈

❌ From racist policing to laws further excluding Muslims, France has created an environment where this violence is inevitable. ❌

🔴 His assassination is not an exception. It’s an outcome of decades of laws, narrative and repression that criminalise Black and Muslim lives in France, all under the guise of “laïcité” and “republican values.” 🔴

‼️ Aboubakar Cissé was executed inside a mosque, in a country where anti-Blackness and Islamophobia are state-sponsored. ‼️

These fascists are just so gosh darn loyal to that red white & blue. Except when they're loyal to the confederacy too of course. Gotta get these confederate monuments back up. The cause of the confederacy has always been American & it's just a handy companion to Trump's ideologies.

This story is fucking bonkers

Remind me - how many Australian politicians and media [sic] outlets are reporting these facts which are freely reported in Israel? #auspol

Julia is correct and it can’t be emphasized, strongly enough. We’ve seen this playbook, before. No matter your position on the conflict, this is the United States of America and this is a grave violation of Mahmoud Khalil’s rights. If it can happen to him, it can happen to any Green Card holder.

@changesanjeev.bsky.social kindly donate any little amount to support us , 2 of our members are in hospital after being beaten up by police for protesting peacefully against fossil fuels and the EACOP project, it’s why we need your help . Thank you

Israeli soldiers dragged Dr Issam Abu Ajwa out of an operating theatre mid-surgery. They beat him, stripped him, and handcuffed him. Israel held him for months, subjecting him to months of abuse and torture. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Hello @changesanjeev.bsky.social kindly support us end fossil fuels and to stop EACOP in Africa through your donation. Thank you 🙏 www.gofundme.com/f/support-st...

The US oil and gas business is a big con. "The company that a month ago we were assured was worth $110 billion is now worth $36 billion (on paper). Remember, everyone lies about everything in the oil and gas industry. In hindsight, that is looking like a $70 billion lie right now."

Would you like one LESS thing to worry about? I am here for you. Stop worrying about how processed your food is! Sure, plenty of ultra-processed food is total junk, but it's the old-school stuff that makes it bad: calorie-density, sugar, fat, & sodium. Gift link: wapo.st/41dOlTW

Draining the world's peatlands for farming and mining is releasing so much CO2 that if it was a country, it would be the 4th biggest polluter in the world after China, the US, + India. And the associated losses in biodiversity are vast. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A single word can be a lie. For example, journalists are still calling what Musk and his child army have been doing an operation in pursuit of government efficiency.... www.meditationsinanemergency.com/to-use-their...

Yesterday, @andrewmillar.bsky.social became the 2nd @royalsociety.org fellow to resign over the society's "inability to act proportionately on Elon Musk" An open letter by @scurry.bsky.social is being signed by 100s of scientists, including many FRS. So many our article was quickly out of date...

Super chuffed to have been interviewed for the @transitionshow.bsky.social on clean heating, heat pumps and policy. I think it's a really neat overview of the issues at play. Thanks for having me @chrisnelder.bsky.social!

Apologies for the delay, my bad. Fixture wallpapers for February.

Bissouma & Bentancur are both poor out of possession at 6 - screening & tracking runners are weak spots, exemplified by both goals today. Bentancur effective presser at 8. Bissouma effective press-resistant progressor at 6/8. But you *have* to try to balance out their deficiencies.

We are the easiest team to play against in the league - I don’t understand how he can set a midfield up like that with the emphasis on pressing from minute one (which caused us to be passed through like an U18 team) and then bemoan the fact that we’re too tired to press???

Whomever is our coach in two years is going to have some insane talent to work with. The road to that point is going to be bumpy but there’s so much to look forward to*. *Story of my Spurs supporting life tbf so will probably go to shit before then but let an old man dream okay

⚠️ Top Secret Idea ⚠️ If this is it for Ange, then supporters start a petition begging Levy to be our next manager because we “trust his football savvy.” Independent of his success as manager, he’ll be forced to fire himself in less than 18 months and…bam…Levy out. #COYS

Toyota's first US battery factory is ready to rock. The $14 billion North Carolina facility will manufacture batteries for electric vehicles, hybrids & plug-in hybrids and begin shipping in April insideevs.com/news/749645/... Hey Rs in Congress: Don't mess this all up! Retain EV tax credits. 🔌💡 🔌🚗

How does the oil industry maneuver in an era where it is being outcompeted by renewable energy on cost, reliability and availability and where GHG emissions reductions are a global imperative? More US taxpayer handouts, obviously.

AAUP-NYU has issued a report about the egregious correspondence between NYU President Linda Mills and Elizabeth Rand (founder of the anti-Palestinian group MACA), which threatens academic freedom and reflects gross corruption of NYU procedures

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Incredible.

1. BREAKING Several of Elon Musk’s associates installed at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) — including two recent high school graduates — have received unprecedented access to federal human resources databases containing sensitive personal information for millions of federal employees.

One of the few countries with a national carbon tax -- one that rebates to taxpayers, the way carbon tax proponents want -- is getting ready to scrap it in exchange for a system of incentives. The *liberal party* is proposing this. This settles the debate over the political economy of a Ctax, no?

Ronny Chieng explained climate change on the Daily Show a year ago and it remains as relevant as ever!

We want technologies and products to be created, manufactured and marketed in Europe. And we must act now. Our new Competitiveness Compass is the plan for Europe’s productivity and growth. ↓🧵 #madeinEurope

In a new draft version of the #Competitiveness Compass which will be presented today, the #electrification action plan is now foreseen for Q1 2026, alongside a Grids Package. The text also mentions the upcoming EU 2040 climate target (which was missing in the previous version) but not -90%

This excellent piece by @profpaulpoast.bsky.social on @wpr.bsky.social is a why I love our discipline. Poast does a great job in bringing insights from IR scholarship to bear on the ceasefire, analyzing what changed to make a deal available for months materialize now. 1/12

This is obviously not a team that has quit on its manager. It’s a team that needs reinforcements. #COYS
