New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

I have reached that age where I now officially need glasses 🤓. I'm surprised it's taken this long to be honest. 😎

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Who can be the biggest Arsehole on Arsehole Media, driving Arsehole SUVs, voting for Arsehole Politicians and their Arsehole Wars. It truly is "The Age of The Arsehole", and I'm so tired of it. 😔

This actually really nagged at me, not so much on its own, but in concert with something that's started happening to my son at school. I started to write up my feelings as a thread, but then it turned into a full-fledged blog post. joshcollinsworth.com/blog/man-cer...

People voted for Labour in the general election because they wanted grown ups in charge who would stand up to Nigel. We didn't get that. The Greens offer a hopeful, inclusive, fair and sustainable future. Labour could also offer that. So why don't they? Get on with it! We don't have much time!

Literally, life changing technology!! Thank you Mike Bostock!! @ocks.org 🎂

8 years ago, at the British Library, I first saw this map: an FT reader competition to predict the boundaries of Europe after WW1. I made a note to find out more one day - which ultimately led me last month to this tomb in West Norwood cemetery. You can read more here: www.ft.com/content/79a4...

Good stuff from @torrespep.bsky.social in the @financialtimes.com this weekend.
