Who’d have thought a fossil-fuel shill like Trump would be the one to spark a green revolution? | George Monbiot The US attack on Iran has made the need for renewable energy inarguable, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

It's the opposite of his intention, but the Idiot Emperor is forcing the world off fossil fuels. This week's column.

Settlers block Palestinian pupils' path to West Bank school with barbed wire Dozens of Palestinian children have been unable to go to school in the Israeli-occupied West Bank this week because of ​barbed wire erected by Jewish settlers across the path they normally use.

this is so cruel, it breaks my heart. i don't know what else to say in the face of such abject immorality.

This is a dance off. If you see this, repost with a dance or get eliminated.

it really delights me too! it took me several weeks of passively hearing it as my kid watched it to figure out who it reminded me of, and then it finally clicked

Jackanory Junior - The Gruffalo and Room On The Broom Told By Sanjeev Bhaskar YouTube video by strictlynostalgia

Sanjeev Bhaskar also does an inadvertent Roy impression during his reading of “The Gruffalo” (the voice of the Gruffalo) on this early 2000s BBC kid’s show called Jackanory Junior (so maybe Brett was inspired!):

That is a crucial difference!

Sounds exactly like the position Harris was put in, in terms of not being able to distance herself from or denounce anything Biden did

The art of the deal!

this is where all of us are. please, let us take better care of it and each other. and please let those with power use it to that end.

did not think i would have to contact my senators @markwarner.bsky.social and @kaine.senate.gov to beg them to prevent nuclear war, but here we are.

My first thought when I heard the #Artemis crew had a 400 mm lens on board: in space, you don't need a monopod

Copy, moon joy. We sent humans because satellites don't call earth and describe the colours of the craters in sunset tones. Satellites don't call home & through tears name a shining bright spot on the moon after a crew mate's late wife. Satellites don't show the friendship bracelet heart hands of a moon bound girl dad to his Swiftie daughters on earth watching. Satellites don't say "hey baby, love ya from the moon!" to watching wives

Humans being emotional in space is the best of humanity and science. I wept happy tears the first time I saw Chris Hadfield performing "Space Oddity", because it's the science that brought us there, and it's the art that helped capture why we do it. #Artemis

Good day to remind everyone that we must fight to preserve the radio heritage / quietness of this region, it’s the only place shielded from Earth’s EM radiation.

I hope there are radio telescope there one day! 📡

My parents have Fox News on in the other room. And it's fucking HORRIFYING hearing that ogre on TV threatening bombs while I'm sitting here watching astronauts hug each other.

Absolute cinema watching that jar of Nutella escape contain behind the backs of the astronauts after packing other things away

Yes! Redemption or forgiveness depends on the person who did the harm expressing remorse and making good faith efforts to fix the damage they caused. Expecting forgiveness absent that is just taking even more from victims, and taking advantage of our sense of humanity and decency

"There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known." Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot

Easter thoughts:
1. If Jesus was real, these hypocritical degenerates would crucify him again for preaching for peace
2. Power plant day and bridge day sound like infrastructure week is finally taking shape
3. Free Lebanon. Free Iran. Free Palestine.
4. I love those astronauts

Seven foreign doctors and aid workers who volunteered in Gaza described a perverse situation in which Israel permits doctors into Gaza but not medical equipment—even months into a supposed ceasefire—prompting several to smuggle medical supplies in, even as they treat new casualties of war.

Israel is intent on redrawing not only the geographic map of south Lebanon but also the demographic one.

Is there a term for this
