Today is National Banjo Day. Never could have happened without the mighty Earl Scruggs.

Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

“How lucky is the United States that everytime they look for democracy in other countries they find oil instead”- Spain Deputy Gabriel Rufián

Witness the elegance of the swimming Feather Star, a crinoid that dates back to the Ordovician era, over 480 million years ago. A true marvel of evolution in our oceans.

On one hand, the way the Iran war is playing out is a heavy-handed, almost theatrical illustration of the point Adam makes here. On the other hand, the same strategy—tougher, harder, more violence, more cruelty—has failed over and over again throughout human history, and we still haven't learned.

Our success as a species is owed to our unrivalled ability to cooperate and collaborate. We see evidence not just in our extensive cultural evolution but also in our genes #Transcendence

Another reason to save our woodlands: a red listed Woodcock.

At the Lebanon/Syria border. Over 200,000 people have crossed into Syria in a month. Humanitarian teams on the ground are constantly responding, constantly adapting.

Arrested while the LAPD said arresting the Statue of Liberty was the highlight of their day... I don't know if that laughter and statement is appropriate when arresting someone for their freedom of speech.

Loved this choir yesterday, very moving. Poor vid,sos

A year ago today, @labourlewis.bsky.social brought his Private Members' Bill on water to Parliament.It aimed to fix our broken system by giving the public a say over who should own it.Since then, the call for public ownership has only grown.Watch his speech: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gIO...

For Steve Reed to conflate anti-semitism with far-right Zionist supremacism, and to further use that conflation as a protracted attack on the left is obscene; Reed should not be using this kind of hate filled divisive language, as it clearly tears up the codes of conduct set out by Parliament.

Farage and Reform wasted police time? A Greater Manchester Police investigation found no evidence of any intent to influence or stop any person from voting at the Gorton and Denton by-election.

We tracked down the superyacht owned by the world’s sixth richest man. Larry Ellison won’t like what we did to it 🛥️🏴‍☠️

Nigel Farage took £585,000 from GB News. His MPs declared another £770,000. Four billionaires have spent £170M building the media machine putting Reform in your living room every night. Today the Guardian exposed them and what they expect in return. This is a political project funded from the top.

The media has convinced you that Keir Starmer is the worst Prime Minister in history. They're lying to you.

Policy ‘believers’. Another red flag gets waved in our faces… An unworkable policy remains unworkable whether you believe in it, or not. Much like Brexit. Relying on ideological zeal to run the show is basically admitting that your ideas are utterly shit.
