Epic vandalism.

Later this month Lewes Swift Supporters launch events to raise awareness of help needed to reverse the decline in the swift population | Ginny Smith @sussexbylines.co.uk

this thing is going to sell so much better than it would have, simply because it is so clearly the anti-Cybertruck

I saw one of these in real life today and I really want one!

We should talk more about the rights of future generations. http://www.alexsteffen.com/the_rights_of_future_generations

A disgrace. “What emerges is a picture of how a child development researcher charged with no crime ended up in a crowded cell in Louisiana [and of] a sprawling, opaque apparatus designed to deport the maximum number of people with minimum accountability.” www.propublica.org/article/rume...

The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.” That is dangerously false. www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

The reason It’s necessary to locate expertise…. He’s literally an idiot cosplaying in the one field you can’t fake expertise

"When can I ride MY bike??" #bunchfam #bikedc

Integrated transportation would put train lines on motorways

Tilda Swinton yesterday called out greed addicted governments who make nice with planet wreckers and war criminals. She gave this powerful acceptance speech when she received an honorary Golden Bear award on the first day of the Berlin Film Festival on February 13.

An important reminder from 2 months ago:

Here's @zackpolanski.bsky.social supporting @paulvalentineactor.bsky.social campaigning in Herne Hill and Loughborough Junction in Lambeth yesterday! we had a strong turnout of Greens to help doorknock and lots of support from the people we spoke to!

Many people in Lambeth have had enough of a Labour Party that does not listen and ploughs on doing what a small cabinet decides. We need @paulvalentineactor.bsky.social to win the #HerneHill #LoughboroughJunction by election on 1st May. He’s the ONLY candidate that can beat Labour. #VoteGreen 💚👇🏼

The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory. www.ft.com/content/8459...

Exact same story with the Borders Railway; the complete lack of ability for our politics to anticipate induced demand always results in this shocked Pikachu face when the inevitable happens

He is gonna wish he had been nicer to Ukraine and Zelenskyy

Sooooo… China has halted and is now refusing to export rare earth minerals to the U.S. thanks to Donald Trump. He’s gonna use this as his excuse to try and take over Greenland, isn’t he?

Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

A throwback to December 2022: Londoners have better ideas for the #Silvertown Road Tunnel, says new report by Green #London Assembly member @sianberry.bsky.social Report suggests tram, DLR, walk/cycle tunnel, and split-level options for public transport. www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/w...

SiX cars parked in the bus stop. Stockton and Fullerton. ALL SUMMER LONG You could fund Plow The Sidewalks from ticketing at this stop alone. @chicagocta.bsky.social

Just making a thread of atrocious U.S. sidewalks for the next person who posts “we have the ADA here, unlike in Europe.”

Idk there should be more of this

Trump just posted a new rant claiming the tariff exceptions on electronics announced late Friday aren’t actually exceptions and they’ll still get hit with tariffs.

Deleting websites is the modern day version of book burning. #Don'tLookAway

A study in Nature Communications shows that hidden water beneath Antarctica’s ice can accelerate ice loss, potentially raising sea levels by over two meters by 2300. https://go.nature.com/4jsKIQj 🧪

🚨TARIFF UPDATE: Tariffs are non-negotiable, negotiable, but not a negotiating tactic. They are permanent until they are paused but they will never be paused, until they are paused which means they increase. Permanent exemptions already announced are temporary, but nothing has been announced. 🤡🎪

The long sorry saga of Edinburgh City Council tying themselves up in knots - All to enable drivers to rat run again through a residential estate. The majority of the residents want to retain the traffic filters that keep their estate safe & quiet www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinbur...

Why are cars allowed on all roads? Why can’t we have safe places?

April 10 Press Briefing with Karoline Leavitt Today we discuss: Tariff pause, market manipulation, JD Vance, and Joe Biden.

1. Major ruling: A federal court has ruled, for now, that Trump cannot take away school lunch money from hungry kids over trans students. This is Gov. Janet Mills first victory after telling Trump she would "see you in court." The latest from Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism.

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Offsetting is purely a con trick to try and suggest that we don't all need to change lifestyles and carry on as we are. It's just smoke and mirrors.

Boom!

Very much enjoyed the new radio series Writing the Universe by @robinince.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
