John Playfair taught my biography subject #WilliamScoresbyJr in his natural history course at the U of Edinburgh in 1806—the epicenter of the Neptunism vs. Vulcanism geological debate. Scoresby leaned Neptunist! His notebook from Playfair's lectures (yes he misspelled Edinburgh on the cover):

The first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change is happening! Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation, is at risk of being submerged under rising sea level, so it has signed an agreement with Australia to allow 280 Tuvaluans to settle in Australia as permanent residents each year.
The First Planned Migration of an Entire Country Is Underway
The Pacific island nation of Tuvalu could be submerged in 25 years due to rising sea levels, so a plan is being implemented to relocate its population to Australia.

Whoa! 😯. Apparently this happens when intense heat after heavy rainfall causes water under the road to evaporate and build up gas pressure 😬
Video captured the moment a road buckled and sent a car flying as a heatwave impacted Missouri on Sunday.

If you are not concerned by the proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation because you think it doesn’t impact you, you are wrong.

This is an authoritarian abuse of power by the government & it curtails all of our civil liberties #r4today
On LBC @zoejardiniere.bsky.social lists 3 previous instances where military aircraft have been targeted by campaigners in order to prevent them being used in war crimes, and she describes the govt banning Palestine Action as terrorists as an abuse of state power.

Well said.

No-one takes the decision to flee their home from persecution, with little more than the clothes on their back, unless their life depends on it.

That’s why our approach to refugees must be rooted in compassion, empathy and humanity.

Not division, prejudice or scaremongering.

This is the kind of thing the EHRC should be campaigning for. Have you ever seen them talk about disabled people’s rights because I haven’t and it’s in their remit.
Ok, this fucking rocks. Everyone should be able to use the bathroom when they're out and about.

🧵 As @iododds.bsky.social has already pointed out, the EHRC and the "supreme" court seem to want to create a historical/legal fiction that, in 2009 and 2010, parliament was proposing that The Equality Act (2010) was in fact a national toilet ban for trans people. As someone who was involved...
