Time to start a digital declutter
I tried the Dr Pepper Cream Swirl special edition. It is rank. Do not try it.
Time for Lewis-Skelly to show what he's made of!
unclear what being transgender has to do with headline
surely UAE and Saudi Arabia would want to keep UK Gas/Petrol off the market to maintain higher share.
Finished Black Wave by Kim Ghattas. Excellent book describing how the Saudi-Iran rivalry has changed the muslim world for the worse #booksky
Gregg's new chicken roll absolutely bangs
if I had the money I would buy the telegraph and destroy the newspaper so that no one had to put up with its nonsense any further
Boston Globe mock front page from April 9, 2016. Date says April 9, 2017, with giant headline “DEPORTATIONS TO BEGIN” and “Markets sink as trade war looms.”
Ten years ago today, in April 2016, the Boston Globe printed a satirical front page imagining a future Trump administration. The page was called "alarmist," "hyperbolic," "dystopian." But we’ve put up with so much since then it now looks like . . . a slow Thursday?
A single line in this piece just made my day:
“The electricity system operator is understood to be preparing to run the grid without any gas for short periods as soon as this summer, in a first for the UK energy system.”
Renewables *work*. And progress matters🎉

Cost to send a letter via the USPS correlates with Google searches for 'i am dizzy' (r=0.98)
Reminder.
I hope all the people who voted against Genocide Joe are feeling good this morning
Government has made the right decision about Kanye West. We shouldn't allow proud Nazis into the UK. He needs to take some time to truly repent for the damage he caused.
1/3 As a Black Jew who grew up loving Kanye West’s music, I’d love to be able just forgive him and say his extreme antisemitism was entirely mental health
But the reality is, his antisemitism went on for *years* and while I absolutely accept some of it may have been mental health, I don’t…
flew with British Airways today. Excellent service from the team.
if only the uk could have done the same
Put Trump’s criticism of Starmer and other democratic leaders against his consistent syrupy praise for authoritarian, brutal leaders.
Starmer is in good company. Just remind yourself how Trump praises authoritarian antidemocratic leaders in this thread. It’s an eye opener 🧵 1/
A Pakistani airstrike on a drug treatment center in Afghanistan on March 16 was an unlawful attack and a possible war crime.
Pakistani authorities should investigate the incident and hold all those responsible for wrongdoing to account.
this is just a reminder I need to watch the film Cocaine Bear
“[Pete Hegseth’s Chief of Staff] Buria told [Army Secretary] Driscoll that President Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events.”
Not shocked, not surprised. The racism is a feature, not a bug, with these lowlifes.

Strange situation where we await a statement from Iran to check whether there's any truth to what US president is saying.
If you're replying to a post about torched ambulances in London with a point about Israel, you've crossed the line into antisemitism. And you're doing absolutely nothing to help any cause.
Even if you consider yourself one of the good people. Maybe especially so. You've just caught racism.
Finished 'The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism' by Martin Wolf of the @financialtimes.com. Very good book explaining the importance of renewing both of these core institutions that have provided our world with so much. #booksky
Genuinely lost for words by Craig Murray's response. These conspiracies, words will have an impact.
This absolute garbage would be appropriate on the front page of Der Stürmer.
I’ve already seen people call the attack on Jewish ambulances a “false flag”, saying every Jew should personally come out and condemn Netanyahu if they don’t want consequences, that the ambulances only serve a “Jewish area” that is a segregated “mini Israel”, posting memes etc. Stop!
An arson attack on a Jewish ambulance service isn’t about Israel. It isn’t about Zionism, or American imperialism, or capitalism, or war in the Middle East.
It’s about Jews. It’s about making British Jews feel fearful in their own homes.
Just like Bondi Beach, and Heaton Park, all over again.
We are appalled by the attacks on ambulances that provide an important service to the Jewish community in North London. It is a relief that no one was injured, but this makes the attack no less sickening. Our thoughts are with the Jewish community in North London and across the UK.
