The oppressive feeling of the pamir plateau

This excellent study by @pettertornberg.bsky.social & @julianachueri.bsky.social published in IJPP is making waves for good reason. I was on German radio this Saturday, talking about how much I like it: www.radioeins.de/programm/sen...

🔴‘Keir Starmer’s Reform-Lite Strategy Is Opening the Borders to the Far-Right’ The Government’s attempts to mimic the anti-migration politics of Reform are a recipe for moral degradation and defeat, argues Jennifer Nadel bylinetimes.com/2025/02/11/k...

There it is — Gulf of America Sooo pathetic

This is so good.

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

A third runway at #Heathrow in the midst of a climate emergency is a vile act of vandalism. Rachel Reeves is happy to burn the planet for a tiny (probably elusive) increment of GDP. How does this benefit us? Article coming later today.

Rare animal that still exist.

I'd say "shocking" but come on

Oh, per @nbcnews.com: Quaker groups file suit over the end of policy restricting ICE arrests in houses of worship. Note: Quakers were some of the earliest supporters of Sanctuary, even putting out a booklet on the topic in 1984 (it's still available). www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

True then. True now. Thank you, Willem Arondeus.

"[The killing of children] was avoidable, unnecessary and only permitted because Palestinian life as a whole has been made cheap by the logic of Israel’s absolute right to defend itself by whatever criminal means it likes." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

WHO DID THIS!

A successful Incitement to Genocide case would get the entire Israeli Government and most of their Parliament arrest warrants, as well as the entire command of the IDF. Lets get it done.

1. The UK government’s pursuit of GDP growth at all costs is an assault on our natural wealth, which will impoverish us all. It might be able to massage the headline figures by converting the living world into money, but it does not improve our lives.🧵

Thank the lord for Private Eye

Your minute of zen

She is braver than seemingly anyone left in MSM. Now watch him have her audited now. He’s vindictive like that

I wrote this on eternal life and ceaseless cringe. And how I've no interest in living forever if it's in a world ruled by the weird, brittle freaks we call tech CEOs. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

Yet another 'No shit Sherlock' moment from BoJo the clown! Who'd have thought? Apart from everyone I know.

The Telegraph has finally found some unemployed people it sympathises with

🏺 Literally no archaeologist I know is shocked by this new research, in fact precisely the opposite 🙄

This is a lovely story by @koryodynasty.bsky.social on how a raised highway in Seoul was turned back into a stream, which now hosts cultural events and attracts tourists

Stephen from the Outsiders project. He died soon afterwards aged only 39. As the cold sets in it is worth remembering that someone homeless dies on the streets in Britain every six hours. As a society we are defined by how we treat those less fortunate than ourselves.

Peach is disappointed that I've - once again - killed the fresh 'living' herbs before managing to use them in my lazy-ass cooking attempts ...

Israel is doing exactly the same thing they have been doing since BEFORE they invaded Gaza. Agreeing to a ceasefire deal and then saying Hamas have broken it so they can continue their genocide.

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

#RewildingWin: 30,000ha in Loch Arkaig to be restored. Achnacarry Estate, Arkaig Community Forest, Forestry and Land Scotland and @wtscotsocial.bsky.social  unite to #rewild an area bigger than Edinburgh, intending to "reawaken the landscape". 🔗 More on this collaborative #rewilding project:

If anyone's looking for some facts and nuance among Musk/the right's attempts to hijack the problem of child sexual exploitation in the UK. Surprise! - the issue is linked more to gender inequality, institutional neglect and poverty than race, religion and ethnicity: blogs.lse.ac.uk/religionglob...

I walk up this hill most days. You can just about make out Lewes Castle. Sheep still out pre-lambing, chalk cliffs on the road out towards Firle, some flooding in the valley after the snow melt.

How many more wake-up calls do we need? We don’t have long to stop catastrophic damage to the natural world we love and rely on. The Climate and Nature Bill will be voted on next week - there's no excuse for politicians of any party not to vote for it. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

In the 1970s, Martha Goddard invented the rape kit, a powerful instrument for women’s justice. So why did she die in relative obscurity while a man took credit? Sheila McClear on Pagan Kennedy's new book, "The Secret History of the Rape Kit":

New podcast. A hot take this week which links several diverse subjects. I speak about the autistic experience of unintentional eccentric behaviour, & explain how I walked into a room full of accountants with black dye all over my face while holding a bag of lemons. open.spotify.com/episode/2RXW...

7% of UK children go to Private School, 39% are in 'Top Jobs.' People who go to Eton have a 2000x greater chance. Private Schools discriminate against every single person who doesn't go to them, and should be banned.

What the UK needs to do. 1. Rejoin the Single Market. 2. Tax Water, Power and the Landlord Empires so they aren't profitable. 3. Renationalise the now cheap Water, Power and Housing. 4. While doing 2 and 3 build 100% renewable energy owned by the Government.

I don't know how many of y'all are watching the migration of American TikTokers to RedNote, but it's the most fascinating thing I've EVER SEEN HAPPEN ONLINE. 🧵

Trump should be in jail. Instead - he's about to get handed the keys to the White House. That this can happen is not only mind-boggling, it's frankly terrifying I'm afraid. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
