One might say Farage is not a good judge of character?
Or even worse, maybe he is?

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.

Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.

That, right there, is the problem.

A reminder: Russia signed a treaty with Ukraine in 1997, accepting that Crimea was part of Ukraine. In 2014 Russia infiltrated Crimea and seized it. Now Pres Trump proposes that Ukraine should accept the loss of Crimea, and blames Pres Zelenskyy for refusing this peace deal.

Quick thread of lost and forgotten words that we need to bring back:

“Overmorrow,” the day after tomorrow, and “yesterneve,” yesterday evening.

“Nodcrafty”: to nod along sagely when someone is talking, despite not having a clue what they’re banging on about.

Astronomers say they have found the strongest indication of life beyond our solar system, on a planet 124 light-years away called ‘K2-18b.’

While they have not declared the finding of life, they detected “potential biosignatures” that are typically produced by living organisms like marine algae.

It's so easy to forget what "normal" felt like in any era. In the Guardian this weekend, they ran a feature on fake/photoshopped images, and included this, from 2008. This ACTUALLY RAN AS A CAMPAIGN, until women ridiculed it into being withdrawn. Such a toxic time for women.

This evening's beautiful Waxing crescent Moon. Really happy with this one as it's not often I manage to capture the unlit part in Earthshine as well as the lit area (just 19%) with surface detail on both parts. #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.bsky.social @photohour.bsky.social

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

Thames Water, which is over £16 BILLION in debt, has just been granted a £3 billion rescue loan. Last December it was still paying fat dividends to bosses and shareholders.

This corporate greed and entitlement needs to be stopped.

As I’ve said before: It’s fucking WATER.
