Shout out to all the under 30s on here who just wanted to have somewhere nice and non-fascist to hang out and find themselves surrounded by people talking about cardigans and how good the 90s were 👋🥰 #Youngsters
Ladies and gentlemen, John Cusack, in his own words. He's one of the few major celebrities to put his money where his mouth is. He's just been declared "Antisemite of the Week" by Stop Antisemitism USA. #FreePalestine#AntiZionistNotAntsemite#StopArmingIsrael

Literally the definition of undermining the rule of law. #NoSurpriseThereThen#BBCBias#UKPolitics#MetPolice

Climate catastrophe news. This is a before and after of the Brazilian State of Rio Grande del Sul, following four days of relentless torrential rain.
However, in better news, Rishi Sunak's climate policy has been declared unlawful by the High Court this morning (via Adam Bienkov of Byline, see tweet). I'll post the link to the judgment when it surfaces.
