12/10 ~ Labour would stand for something meaningful if this dude was PM.

The terrible state of the UK's environment is a significant contributor to the awful rate of public health, and both are related to making people work for "the economy", rather than the economy work for people. And the government doesn't get it

Fixed for accuracy.

Creative. 🌹

Denmark didn’t “transition” its grid—it replaced it. ~15% → 92% renewable electricity in 25 years. Wind did the heavy lifting. Solar is scaling. Interconnection balanced. Flexibility solved variability. Wind built it. Solar is scaling. Fossil lost it. This IS system replacement. ⚡#Bettrification

PM slammed for blaming #Trump while Britain aids and abets illegal war @zackpolanski.bsky.social The British government must immediately suspend diplomatic ties and stop all arms sales to this increasingly rogue state #VoteGreen May 7th morningstaronline.co.uk/article/hypo...

Ladies and Gentlemen: The biggest (past tense) russian oil export hub on the Black Sea. The port of Novorosyissk after Ukrainian imposed sanctions. There are a few russian warships on fire here as well. Heroyam Slava. Fuck Putin. PS: Brent crude is $116.00 a barrel right now. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

The cleanest, cheapest and most secure energy is the energy we don’t use. Government should be leading the way on cutting energy waste — from buildings to advertising — to bring bills down and boost energy security. #EnergyCrisis #CostOfLiving

Never underestimate the sheer evil old men are capable of.

Samples returned from the asteroid Ryugu contain all five canonical nucleobases (A, G, C, T, U). Their presence in Ryugu and Bennu supports the hypothesis that carbonaceous asteroids contributed to the prebiotic chemical inventory of early Earth. http://dlvr.it/TRWtVp ☄️

This matters, unless you want to be sold out.

Ban corporate donations to UK political parties to protect elections, says thinktank. Must ban all political donations. Anything less is unenforceable. It is bribery by corporations and the super rich. They buy power. Any ceiling, say £10k, will favour the rich. How many people have £10k spare?

A sense of security does a lot for happiness. That's why test after test after test shows that having an unconditional basic income floor under you increases happiness. It's less about the money part and more about the knowing you'll be okay no matter what part, and the having space to breathe part.

Are you watching the Oscars tonight? I wanted to share some thoughts about one of my favorite movies (and the important lesson I learned from it): It's A Wonderful Life. Watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQDjyZWw_A4

Not wrong. “We’ve regressed as human beings,” Dyer said, arguing that “misogyny, sexism, homophobia and racism are all on the rise again.” “The working classes, no matter what colour your skin is, are fighting each other while the elites are taking the p*ss.”

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

Justice for the survivors is deeply personal for me. I will not relent until the files are released and we have investigations and prosecutions. www.ms.now/the-last-wor...

Personally, I think the presence of a pedophile makes the transfer less dignified, but maybe that’s just me

Like clockwork.

Some results from last night: -A pro-ICE NC Dem lawmaker lost her primary by nearly 50 points -Dems flipped a GOP-held state House seat in Arkansas -Dem turnout eclipsed GOP turnout in four newly-gerrymandered TX House seats Trump's midterm reckoning has begun.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion. That's roughly $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. People do not want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Bernie's new billionaire wealth tax would raise $4.4T from the super-rich over the next decade. That's more than enough to reverse Trump's Medicaid cuts, raise teacher pay, make childcare affordable, and build millions of affordable homes. And guess what? The super-rich will still be super rich.

The AI image generation was really quite bad indeed - for example in one prompt I asked for a man sitting behind a desk with his arms crossed. Folks - the image that came back had two dismembered arms on the desk (?) and I asked for an image of a young man wearing a hoodie with a logo of an owl on

House of Lords should strip Mandelson of peerage, says Starmer. That alone won't do. Mandelson leaked sensitive govt info. How many times did he do so? Who benefited from the leaks? Mandelson advised Starmer. Starmer made him US ambassador. What did Starmer know?

With FIFA World Cup matches due to be played in 11 US cities, the shooting of innocent people by ICE raises serious concerns about the safety of fans travelling to America, especially those at risk of racial profiling.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth. When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
