I’d point out that the Iraq report was instantly binned and never referred to again; that nobody is in prison for the Hillsborough disaster or for *soldiers literally gunning down civilians in the street*, and that there are no notable calls to exact consequences on Boris Johnson. This is standard.

Leed este artículo de Li Gao, viceministro de ecología chino, y veréis cómo China no va a dar un paso atrás en la transición energética, al revés, la va a acelerar para antagonizar con EEUU.
Y si China hace la transición energética, el mundo, en su mayoría, la hará.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

Quatre nus face à l'hiver
Dans le froid piquant et la brume givrante du matin, deux champs se partagent le premier plan : l’un fraîchement labouré, l’autre couvert de jeunes pousses. Leur ligne de séparation structure l’image dans son axe central. Plus haut, une route trace une frontière nette, bordée d’une rangée de quatre arbres nus qui se détachent sur l’horizon. Au-dessus d’eux, un ciel gris uniforme écrase le paysage d’une lumière sourde et hivernale.

Probably my favorite image from the aurora last week. Shot in Duluth, Minnesota. Someone told me it looks like a stoplight in the sky, and now I can't unsee it.

Again, I recall Michael Gove in Parliament basically saying to one pissed off Tory MP after another: Let’s just shitefest this disastrous drivel over the line and argue about the details later. An argument that appears to have won over basically everyone who matters, who then sold it to the public.

La transphobie ne cesse de tuer.

Chaque année en France, des dizaines de personnes trans, principalement des femmes et des personnes racisées, meurent pour ce qu’elles sont.

Aujourd’hui, commémorons leur mémoire et poursuivons sans relâche la lutte pour l’éradication de la transphobie.

Oh, also in recent movie news, I got some friends of mine to watch both the original of The Blob and the 80s version.

They liked them both! Still crowd pleasers to this day, even if the original has like 40 year olds pretending to be high schoolers.

Once again, we are way too relaxed about the fact that "shooting Irish people is good actually" is a mainstream political position on the neighbouring island.
Am X post from Suella Braverman that reads: "The SAS has the support of the whole country against this shameless government of cowards and Sinn Fein sympathisers." She is quote tweeting a post from the telegraph that says, "New laws could see former soldiers hounded through courts over alleged crimes, say veterans."
