"By bringing together housing and climate policies, we might focus our remaining emissions budget solely on this gap in sustainable public and community-led housing, creating innovation vehicles that legitimately tilt the playing field towards the common good"
Wow, this essay by @cityofsound.bsky.social is SPEAKING to me 🙌
"the UK now has over 2.5m landlords. Lawyer Nick Bano has observed that this is 2x the number of NHS employees, 4x times the number of teachers and double the number of coal miners at the industry’s peak"

notable that actual Jewish seniors get this in a way that the ersatz holocaust museum does not
@kinship.works Really enjoyed this report - www.kinship.works/publications... - some real alignments with some things we're working on at @thecentriclab.com, thanks for putting it together and sharing the knowledge! ✊
This is excellent political messaging. @zackpolanski.bsky.social hits straight to the core of the problem. This system is intolerable and it must be overcome: production should be organized around human well-being and ecology, not around maximizing profits for the rich.
This year we are committed to training, educating, organizing, and using legal interventions to help people overcome AI harm—while being thoughtful about how we do it. We’re focused on making AI harms visible, understood, and actionable for low-income communities and their ground-level advocates.

Behind this list is a dark blue background with multiple hexagonal shapes of different colors: red, green, yellow. At the bottom is a yellow button stating “follow + share” and “join the fight”
💫New Year New Us—We’re hitting the ground running. From shaping a bold strategic plan to building the team that will bring it to life, 2026 is about momentum and purpose.

FML #Arsenal, can I please have an evening of football where my blood pressure and cortisol aren't spiking all over the place 🥵... please 👍🏻
Please share. Thanks
Am I mad here but I feel sorry for Gyokeres. He's come into a team that clearly has no idea how to play to his strengths and it's like his teammates aren't trying to find him
We never put a ball through for him to chase, overpower defenders, and get shots off, never. His confidence is gone, a waste
I have so many questions...
So so many...
I think I just need to come round, lie down on the couch, and you charge me by the hour and walk me through it all...

I think so. I don't remember any swearing, drugs, etc. Just 3 guys telling their stories about their love of the guitar. It is quite "anorak" if you know what I mean? Quite guitar-nerdy, but a brilliant one at that.
This was also a fun and nerdy listen if your young one gets to this stage share.google/GEEhucJloBi2...
This is such a great guitar nerd film...in the opening scene Jack White builds a Diddly Bow youtu.be/wbxOM1ErYs4?...
Amazing work for an org's first year ✊🏻
