WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, weโ€™ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeโ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Yesterday I saw this picture of my latest book being read in public, was tagged in a post about it being taught and spotted its latest 5 star review. Books seem to vanish after the initial buzz has died down, so itโ€™s nice to know that, itโ€™s still out there being read, taught and, it seems, loved.

I'll be at House of Books & Friends in Manchester next month, discussing Broken Biscuits and Other Male Failures. Come along. It's on pancake day but you can eat those before or after. Or during actually, I won't mind. #booksky

I JUST CANโ€™T PACK.

All Iโ€™ve done is made my room look like a disaster zone and realised I needed to make a repeat prescription order of oestrogen. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME I realise as Iโ€™m packing Iโ€™ve ran out of one of my meds.

And you wouldnโ€™t like me when Iโ€™m not taking oestrogen

I no longer feel an obligation to the publishing community. I have to do what is good and proper for my ego.

Politics Joe post.

Photo of Farage and Zahawi pissing themselves. 

Quote from Zahawi:

"I came here from Iraq, but I absolutely feel British and proud of it.
To be told this man could run the country and discriminate against you in eight weeks' time is frightening. I am disgusted by that."
Nadhim Zahawi on Nigel Farage, 2015

Reform: where no one is too corrupt, no one is too racist, no one is too incompetent.

They welcome any and all shitstains. Very few questions asked. No principles ever needed. Just a raging sense of entitlement and a willingness to betray your country for money and maybe a grubby peerage.

This book is a MUST read! Broken Biscuits by Adam Farrer. A great read about masculinity for anyone - but the Gen X-ers will especially love the nostalgia

Hmm, should people believe JD Vance or their own eyes?
