Me: Is there a name for the fear of looking for information held electronically that should be on your system or in the cloud but you worry might not be, or might turn out to need some password you have lost? ChatGPT suggested a new term "digital retrieval dread." Hey, folks! I have DRD!

People power. 👊

To climate deniers: You said it was a hoax when 18M hectares burned in Canada in 2023. You ignored it when 2025 became Norway's hottest year ever. Now forests above the Arctic are burning while Canada's smoke reaches Europe. At what point will you reflect?

What they taught in school: GDP up = good. What they left out: The atmosphere has a limit Soil can die Water runs out 8 billion people need a living planet, not just a growing economy

Switzerland did it. France have done it. It's time to get the US/Israeli Spy Agency Palantir out of Europe.

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.

🚨 Don’t forget your photo ID when going to vote today. It’s time to vote for candidates who only have two vested interests – people and planet. Why not head down to the polls on your lunch break? 🗳️

Politicians and media attacking @zackpolanski.bsky.social over antisemitism lack any decency. So says Rabbi Herschel Gluck - who was given an OBE for advancing interfaith understanding.

Europe is getting crushed on the social media battleground right now. Our democracies are wide open to attack because we rely on foreign tech. We cannot survive this unless we push through serious regulation and finally start building our own European platforms

Simply monstrous, and an abuse of employer-employee relationships. Add to that, the data they are looking to protect from the USA-based predator is about *us* - anyone who uses the NHS. Tolkein invented the 'palantir' globe that allows the evil to monitor everyone from afar: fiction becomes real.
