Shell’s quarterly profits up from $4.3bn to $9.8bn, jump in price of oil/gas due to wars . Customer bills hiked, industries crippled, economies damaged, planet burns from fossil fuels pollution, corporations profit from catastrophies. Another $3bn share buyback. Must levy 100% windfall tax.

Sadly men have done an incredibly effective job at assuring women do not feel safe throwing around compliments to random men. Women cannot assume men will know it’s just a compliment, and not an invitation for further unwanted attention and sex, or if they’ll become aggressive when “rejected”.

It turns out eating cheese constantly and drinking infinite donuts a day was alright when I was cycling 100 miles a day/week, but not now I spend 90% of my waking day flying a desk/van for @protect.earth. Planting trees and murdering invasives helps, but not as much as cutting back. 🫡

Why do you use the word straightforward in this context.

Last month I sold/donated all my large tops and 36” trousers/shorts. My 34” trousers/shorts are getting loose, so they’re going next. I’m back into 32”! My secret diet? Part discovering i’m lactose intolerant. Part giving up booze for a month, then restricting to 20 units/week for 2 more months.

The guy who wrote the book on money laundering is utterly shit at money laundering.

I complimented a guy for his sick vintage gravel bicycle dressed up in matchy bikepacking bags and he thought I was being sarcastic. Something is pretty broken if you need to “assess the situation for threats” when somebody says a thing you clearly worked hard to make awesome is in fact awesome.

British cishet men especially never compliment each other. “Bants” generally just means bullying each other, alpha male posturing with a vaguely velvet glove. “Dude I love your hat.” “Your beard is absolutely majestic.” Makes people beam and it’s not hard at all to do.

But as LBC itself reported today, the *systems* impacts of global heating on the UK will be exponentially worse. Food production and distribution networks are just one set of systems that are at severe risk of collapse under a warmer climate.

“Yeah, just go forwards, you’ll be fiiiiine.”

The River Avon is so thirsty that the flow is basically non-existent. I’m floating home up-river on the faintest breeze.

Maybe of interest… graph I made…

As somebody who manages grasslands, can confirm.

If you wanted to check anyone else’s homework. bsky.app/profile/chri...

Immediately failing the thought experiment with bog standard culture war bullshit as per usual Gary. 🤣

Yeah me or a glass bottle or some lightning or anything else right. The difference between a tiny fire and a big fire is the fuel load, and climate change is increasing the fuel load drastically every year.

I could set 100+ acres of grassland on fire with a lighter that’s in my pocket right now. It would be incredibly easy. There’s no reason to believe it would stop at 100 acres. It would go and go. In previous years it wouldn’t go at all. Would I be the cause of that fire, or climate change?

This is fucking amazing. They’re blaming the left for their own idiocy but apart from that it’s unbelievable to see anything like this is in The Daily Telegraph. They’ve gone back on it since but still, read it and have just a little hope.

We’ve got a miniforest on school grounds south Oxford that got battered by a heatwave and lost 90%. Want to get that back on track so the kids aren’t devastated because they worked hard. Planting this winter.

Welcome to the space though! That’s really cool. I’d say slide into my DMs about it but U.K. has shit laws and I’m not handing over my bank statements to those goons. 🤣
