The AfD continued its losing streak today in Germany's most populous states. In all three cities where the party had reached the runoff for mayor, it lost in a big way. In Gelsenkirchen 67-31, in Duisburg 79-21, and in Hagen 72-28. More please!

Sky News and the BBC repeatedly mention the "migrant crisis" in doing so they are normalising and legitimising far right talking points. There is no "migrant crisis", there is only migrant hysteria, which the British media is feeding into instead of countering.

Community Health Impact Assessment by @joshartus.bsky.social et al. 🔍 #CityKnowHows 🔍A case study in developing a Health Impact Assessment from the eyes of a Community www.cityknow-how.com/how-migratio... #Cities4Health #HealthyCities #Community #HealthImpactAssessment

Big moment for us at @thecentriclab.com (and me personally) in the publication of this case study in the @citiesxhealth.bsky.social journal.

So I went on holiday to the Vendee, about a third of the way down France’s west coast, and it made me think a lot about @duncanrobinson.bsky.social’s “Britain, accept you’re a hot country” argument…

New thinking from the Lab 👇

Fuck this unimaginative Star Wars copying asshole of a human being. I hope she lives her life perpetually unhappy given the harm she's causing innocent children trying to live in a messed up world her greedy ass is making worse.

Every Harry Potter book or shirt you buy directly funds the persecution of trans people. There's absolutely no excuse to support anything Harry Potter anymore unless you hate trans people.

@arseblog.com @gunnerblog.bsky.social Going through highlights of Saka & Martinelli goals and they're often more central - not wide. I feel that not having overlapping full-backs forces S&M to stay wide, get double-teamed, and we lose their attaching potency. What do you think? #arsecastextra

So...how have you all been hiding Terry Reid from me... It's like Neil Young, Rod Stewart and Gram Parsons all got in Jeff Goldblum's fly machine... Wow. open.spotify.com/track/6TcmSJ...

"It is understood to have rejected a £500m state rescue package." Imagine if the government spent £500m on an infrastructure to make places sustainable: from community food growth, energy projects, retrofitting homes, social infrastructure.. ...just imagine. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I'd put it the other way round. Scientific method, as a human practice, is intrinsically value laden. What you choose to investigate, what you decide to measure, how you measure, what you ignore, how you deal with uncomfortable results, even who you allow to do it, are all soaked in values.

Why fund community organising? Great piece by Martha Mackenzie of Civic Power Fund. medium.com/civic-power-...

Proud to be releasing my piece/essay that explores the aspects of my potato research that fascinate me so much. The essay focuses on my time working alongside Indigenous agricultural and botanical experts in the Andean regions of Bolivia and Peru. Big thanks to @thecentriclab.com for their support

Great research pointing out the corruption of a (late-stage capitalist) system that actively creates scarcity - wealth for a selective few - and then as a result creates a wealth transference from public to private hands. inews.co.uk/news/private...

"a sealed, water-filled loop is sunk deep inside former oil or gas wells to absorb the naturally occurring heat at their bases. The warmed water in the loop then returns to the surface. In this way, the heat can be passed to nearby buildings." So simple. Love it 💚 www.bbc.com/future/artic...

In budget the government failed to introduce a prpgressive wealth tax to help pay for public services. Now we have a fairly regressive tax on all households to make up shortfall. Millions face council tax rise of more than 5% - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

The future is here. 💫

PGMOL may as well hand Liverpool the title now. Gakpo clearly trips himself up here - the referee awards the penalty and unsurprisingly, VAR sticks with the decision. The best league, the worst officiating. But Neville and Carragher and the likes will continue to defend them.

Climate change adaptation is happening but so is resistance to these efforts. In our open-access article, @mmikulewicz.bsky.social and I look at 20 cases to understand why resistance is happening and highlight alternative visions for adaptation. We learned 9 key things. 🧵. doi.org/10.1002/wcc....

"Water industry promises £22bn of environmental investment, funded by rising bills" This country 🙄 That's not the industry paying, that's people. We're being pissed on and told it's raining. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Good lord, this government 🙄 Seeing economic growth in the eyes of 'big investment' is a kick in the face of every SME that says 'you're not the economy'. Encouraging major infra projects that have long standing environmental+social problems is so basic. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Just when you're about to give up on social media, a project like this pops up on your feed. This is awesome.

Really well written piece on the rise of Trump 2.0 The recent rise is as much down to the "liberal left" failing to evolve & create an alternative to extractive neoliberalism than anything else. It's a protest vote. One that unfortunately brings with it chaos. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
