Everyday we wake up to news of more convictions, trumped up charges, kangaroo courts designed to silence resistance, extra-judicial killing & lethal mismanagement by the mafia who have a choke hold on #Iran. If you know #Iranians, please reach out to them from time to time 🌹 #TheNooseIsRed #IRI

Never forget the Normans were Norse-men. This upsets quite a few people, but yes the ones we know best were Vikings settled in France.

Arab poets wrote odes to Norman kings. Norman architects built churches with Islamic geometric decoration and Byzantine mosaics. It lasted barely a century and nothing quite like it has existed since. @peterfrankopan.bsky.social on what it produced — and why it ended. linktr.ee/empirepoduk

Amazing Brazil 🇧🇷 A big victory for Lula

Taniel@taniel.bsky.social

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

Datafolha projects that Lula has defeated Flávio Bolsonaro and won an unprecedented fourth term in the Brazilian presidential runoff. With 75.87% of votes counted, Lula leads 51.11% to 48.89%, and Datafolha says Bolsonaro can no longer catch up.

A close friend‘s parents have been so radicalised by fascism that the dad - who twelve years ago ran for city office on a progressive platform - now thinks that Eduardo Bolsonaro is a political prisoner in the US. No words.

Grim stories from Brazil. Indigenous voters going to the city a day early because they don’t trust their state not to cut off their travel routes on election day: www.instagram.com/reel/De4z6kP... - while many flights to the north east, a pro-Lula region, have been cancelled without explanation.

The chance to keep global warming below 1.5°C with no overshoot is gone. But urgent action can still limit the overshoot and bring warming back to 1.5°C by 2100. Current policies, however, put the 🌎 on course for up to 2.8°C this century. New #EmissionsGap Report: https://ow.ly/SNHX50ZZz8l
