Aberfan was an awful disaster and there are still ~2,500 disused coal tips in Wales. Merthyr Tydfil and Caerphilly specifically all have more than 50 tips of “higher risk” status. The floods coming with the climate crisis make the risk of another Aberfan in our lifetimes terrible to think about.

Lincoln’s Newport Arch was built by the Romans in the 3rd century and is still very much in use by vehicles today, some 1,800 years later- this is pretty amazing!

One of the biggest problems we're gonna have in the future is a lack of guillotine capacity.
![Speaking last week at CNBC and Boardroom's "Game Plan" conference, Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino took a rosier outlook, insisting that the demand for live entertainment has never been higher, and tickets are "underpriced."
"Music has been underappreciated," Rapino said, especially compared to sports. "In sports, I joke it's like a badge of honor to spend 70 grand for a Knicks courtside [seat]. They beat me up if we charge $800 for Beyoncé."
He added, "We have a lot of runway left. So when you read about ticket prices going up, the average concert price is still $72. Try going to a Laker game for that, and there's 80 of them. The concert is underpriced and has been for a long time."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vevk6lgrt6o4wncrbp7joij3/bafkreiagqafchbl6vtdby4pc3gy772swfjlcdd4kbme3iwfwhbbdwm3xqe@jpeg)

This is such an important thread, but this post really made me sad, because the broader scholarly infrastructure has (been) eroded to the point that knowledge exchange simply can't exist in the way it used to and there's little that journals can do about it.
Because that infrastructure was people.

Editors are trying their best to maintain the scholarly infrastructures of knowledge exchange. It's not easy or feasible for most to set up open access elsewhere. Our journals, whatever their myriad faults, have helped sustain fields over years and decades.

It’s not just that there is no legality here. The Israeli state is at war with the very concept of legality. The idea that there is such a thing as a baseline, fundamental notions such as a human rights etc. - these are to be destroyed to reduce the cost of the genocide on Israel.
Israel appears to be destroying high-rise buildings as part of its displacement efforts and aims to conquer Gaza city. Israeli law prof Eliav Lieblich comments: "17 years in the field and I haven't seen a 'state of law' that conducts itself like this. There isn't a millimetre of legality here."
