So… Trump doesn’t have the cards, huh 🤔
The fact that Isabel Oakeshott, economic migrant to the UAE may just turn into a refugee fleeing to the UK from a war zone will cause a level of schadenfreude in me that may just make me topple right over.

In a battle between hope and hate, hope won out.

The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
A view of the Artemis 2 rocket on the pad with a large clock showing 29 seconds on the count down.
Artemis 2 Wet Dress fueling test ran the clock down to t-29 seconds, and seems to have gone okay.
Report tomorrow on if everything went as planned.
It's not fiscal discipline if they're using the money saved from reimposing the two-child limit to cut beer duty. It's revenue-neutral.
Leaving aside the immorality of that policy ...
I legit a cannot stop laughing at this picture, it's so fucked up
Oh so you CAN question a court judgement after all
Ratcliffe doesn’t pay taxes here so he should shut the fuck up.
Full time score Leicester 3-4 Southampton, Saints came back from 3-0 down at half time!

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
This stuff about student loans is absolutely grim. Student loans shouldn't be a thing. It's absolutely shameful that people can't just go to properly funded unis to study in this country. Whatever they want. With a grant, if necessary.
EDUCATION BENEFITS SOCIETY AND IS AN END UNTO ITSELF. #bbcqt

Blocking Andy Burnham from fighting the Gorton by-election is another gift to Reform from a Labour leadership whose entire strategy has so far played directly into their hands

Yes… how’s that worked out with water, or trains or literally anything else?
Cowards
If Starmer blocks Burnham from standing for parliament it can only be interpreted one way - as anti-democratic cowardice.
Burnham couldn't possibly be any worse than Starmer as PM, but sadly the thing about blocking him from the by-election is that it would also be quickly forgotten.

It’s far past the time someone told Trump in plain English to fuck off
This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.
This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.
