So many amazing women. So many amazing Mexicans. Thank you !

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

Happy Saturday! When it feels overwhelming - 😢 step into the 80’s

Wow! The number of @bsky.app users just passed 32 MILLION! 👏 LETS DO THIS!

Trump could have pushed for an end to the war in Ukraine without becoming actively hostile to Ukraine. Instead, he has imbibed Putin’s lies. Have written about the emergence of a new US/Russia axis, where it comes from and the staggering implications for Europe. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

This is a brilliant and realistic appraisal by @lewisgoodall.com of the geopolitical switcheroo that Trump has performed in a month, siding with Putin against Ukraine (and the Liberal West in general). To his list of 5 reasons I’d add a 6th: The belief that financial gain justifies any action.

While we're watching the nightmare unfolding in the US, let's not forget @carolecadwalla.bsky.social and others warned about Russian interference in UK politics and Brexit a long, long time ago (and was persecuted for her bravery). Here she is earlier this year in The Guardian. Don't look away.

Dark Pence is back.

Morning from Ukraine! I woke up, had a #warcoffee, read the news. Odesa was attacked with drones. A significant part of the city is without electricity, water and heating. russians launched 167 drones at Ukraine since yesterday's 8 pm until the morning. Idiots (no sorry from me). We won't give up.

When the world is a bit of a shit-show, the best option is … theatre! I highly recommend The Ballet Shoes at London’s National Theatre. Pure joy!

Interesting data in light of current events. More about welfare queen Elon Musk: www.profgalloway.com/elon-musk-we...

This is how it's done.

The Chairman of the Munich Security Conference Christoph Heusgen breaks down as he gives an emotional speech at the end of the summit, thanking European leaders for reaffirming values of democracy, freedom and rule of law 👏

Bluesky is now a refuge from X for us all With individuals and large organisations leaving X in droves, Bluesky seems to be the social media platform of choice to emigrate to centralbylines.co.uk/opinion/blue...

Zelensky's speech at the Munich Security Conference ended with prolonged applause!

We’ve been warned!

Elio discovers his reflection!

We need a free and sovereign Europe.

X marks the spot.

Good advice ⬇️

Yesterday my US colleague told me she bought eggs at the price of $10! Not 12 eggs. Just 6! Insane. 😱

I heard that Meta are removing this brave woman’s picture off their platform.

'Winter Night in the Mountains,' was made in 1901 when critics were trying to associate Harald Sohlberg with Impressionism. He dismissed the idea saying he had no interest in capturing ‘half-hour of devotion,' to atmosphere but the vastness and physical presence of the landscape.

I can't love this picture enough.🥹 So happy for Michael J Fox.❤️🙏
