Ever wondered about high coffee prices? The causes and the impacts? Great read www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/b...

One of the many good things about the Fairtrade system is people and organisations in different countries working together to achieve better outcomes for farmers and workers. Like with the Fairbruary campaign. www.fairbruary.com

Ah dear. The Rose Garden, named in honour Jack Kennedy's eldest sister, will be renamed The Tiffany Terrace.

After Storm Éowyn, Ireland must do what Sweden did 20 years ago

Europe urgently needs its own plan of action concerning Ukraine and our security, or else other global players will decide about our future. Not necessarily in line with our own interest. This plan must be prepared now. There’s no time to lose.

Jeez

TODAY 12 February 5-7pm, I'll be holding another #AldiWineClinic both here and on Twitter simultaneously. All your questions answered, just use the hashtag (this is important) and if you repost too you could win an ALDI €100 voucher. Get your question in now with the hashtag #AldiWineClinic

Mint's strong scent deters pests like aphids & ants, attracts beneficial insects, and tastes great! Grow in pots (full sun/part shade, moist soil) to control its spread. Used in teas for digestion & flavor, it's a garden all-rounder! #gardening #mint #herbs

It's a tragedy.

"Do you plan to visit the crash site?" Trump, "What crash site, the water? You want me to go swimming?" What a fucking asshole.

Found this on Facebook

"Elon Musk is a joke. Leaving Twitter forever, bye". 📱🚫If you, too, are contemplating deactivating your social media accounts - here's how.

Wednesday 29 January is Day 1071 of #Russia's unprovoked (don't fall for the propaganda) war in Europe. Putin tested the resolve of the west ahead of the next stage of his stated plan to reunite the USSR, i.e. NATO states. Here's today's daily thread, all the news, all the time:

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget INSURRECTIONIST TRUMP!

Missed a few days of toddler's games because of #StormÉowyn God help America 🙏

It's not a mistake. It was planned!

Colombia denied Donold’s deportation planes and he’s furious.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus on Trump’s claim that Canadians would get better healthcare as the 51st state: This is my health card. I just walk into a hospital, give them my card, and I get free coverage. That’s how health care is delivered here. We don’t have people who pay and people who are denied.

Look out for the #Fairtrade logo #ColombianCoffee

The spin of a lifetime!

The calm before the Big Wind of 1839 was particularly eerie 4,846 chimneys fell, and waves topped the Cliffs of Moher on the Night of the Big Wind www.irishtimes.com/culture/book...

Idiots get elected sometimes. Idiots run governments sometimes. Idiots set us back with stupid policy sometimes. But idiots fail too and idiots pass too. In time we always look back and shake our heads and fix things again.

Elon Musk replaced Twitter with a cesspit known as X

Hats off to @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social and sod off to Elon Musk. Here's a 🎶 parody of Leonard Cohen's "Bird on the Wire" about Musk's recent spate of diarrhoea tweets about the UK, called "Turd on a Wire" (with an attempted nod to the wonderful k.d. lang version ❤️). youtu.be/G_N4UmUjJeo

A tribute to #ElonMusk's dangerous misinformation

A new week begins, a new (old) President enters the White House. Is this #Putin's "get out of jail free" card? The daily thread on Day 1062; all the important news and analysis from #Ukraine and no gratuitous gory stuff. Please share, quote, tell your friends, or anything else to help visibility.

Did Donald Trump just say that Elon Musk helped him rig the election? “[Elon Musk] knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

OTD in 2022 one of my parody embassies reminded us that suggestions Russia would invade Ukraine were fakes spread by USA. Seeing as we didn't invade you can believe our promises now about stopping the invasion.

Russia has sentenced three lawyers who had defended Alexei Navalny to several years in prison for bringing messages from the late opposition leader from prison to the outside world

30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel. Now no one dares.

“Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is only the most conspicuous part of what looks like an ever more globalized war” www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
