The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen.

There are a lot of evil dictators that were surprisingly effective at ‘things’, so looking for moral equivalence an d saying theses efficacy’s make you good is pulling on strings a bit. I doubt (mostly) they believed they were bad people too (other then Stalin he realised it)

When farms stop yielding, hunger does not knock — it breaks the door.
Across the Horn of Africa, soils that once fed nations are turning barren.
This is not “bad weather.”
This is climate change rewriting our food systems in real time.

@andyburnham.bsky.social , don’t know if you’re still on Bluesky but the people have spoken. The question persists are you the prime minister we hope for?
Restoring EU membership was the most popular choice across all constituencies save for 4 ReFuk constituencies

Proposals offering a “halfway house”, such as a CU, or the EU single market, drew limited support from Lab, Lib Dem & Green Party supporters, & were even less popular with Tory or ReFukkers
New polling showing Edinburgh taking five of the top ten UK seats with highest support for rejoining the EU highlights Scotland’s unwavering European commitment. Dragged out of the single market against our will, voters demand our rights restored. Why delay our return? (1/2) 🤔 #FBPE

Incredible scientific advances that make people's lives better are possible because of funding and the space to pursue ideas. Learn about #science, protect it and demand fair access to the applications of its discoveries because your life wouldn't be as good without. 🧪
'Unlike typical gene therapy, which alters a person’s genes to treat a genetic disease, antisense oligonucleotide [RNA] therapy, uses short strands of genetic material to target RNA produced by the gene and reduce how much protein is made.'

Looking for good news. Advances in RNA science & med.

Gene-targeting treatments could be used to treat other people with rare forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

I can’t believe how little media coverage any of this is getting. Russia is escalating across Europe, Poland is warning of possible Russian strikes on NATO countries, and Lithuania is preparing evacuation routes in the event of a military attack. You wouldn’t know it from our media

Why no action against the trustees themselves on this specific issue of conducting itself to result in decay & losses?)- Not just the name. (Maybe there is and I’ve not seen it?)

Surely they are not conducting themselves in accordance with the trust instrument?

Aren’t personally liable?
