If your vehicle is of an age that it reports fuel consumption in mpg, £2.20 will be a milestone price (ie £10/imperial gallon).

Hi! My name is Monica and I'm a landscape painter from Canada 🇨🇦 This is my art, hope you like it!

I think it's absolutely mad that today there's a *national news story* about 400 oil platform workers losing their jobs, and the government being blamed. 25% of the UK TV industry lost their jobs in the last 4 years and we never hear a peep about it! Some jobs are 'real jobs' I guess.

A silent procession stretching through Whitehall created a "peaceful thunder" in central London on Saturday as more than 600 people joined a Quaker-led Silent Walking Vigil for Peace. www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

Right, let’s get to it… (Having just replaced gas cooking appliances with electric in preparation for renewables/battery installation)

This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

Art cards are available in my etsy store. There are two different sets to choose from. Thanks for looking! monicamorrillart.etsy.com

And why not a wave of wind turbine generators, PV panels, utility scale batteries, and community heating tech.

Think this gets at something quite important: 'If sustained evidence of changing public opinion can justify reopening a fundamental constitutional question in Northern Ireland, why shouldn’t [it] at least allow us to reconsider Britain’s relationship with the EU?'

Wouldn’t it have been great to visit Duxford today! @wingsandspace.bsky.social Maybe you did?

All those expensive Palantir contracts and the police are still surprised by the covert organisation and mobilisation of far right thugs in Dover and Portsmouth

11:30 Saturday morning, day after assault occurred at the fashfest. LBC & Guardian reporting. Seems as if #ChrisMason & BBC looking the other way?

Hi! My name is Monica and I'm a landscape artist from British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦. These are some of my paintings, hope you like them!

Dear #BBC, Please find Chris Mason a new role reviewing Christmas pantomime productions. I do believe he’d be much better suited to that.

I hope there are journalists , producers & news editors at BBC News who are ashamed that they aren’t breaking this story which affects our national security & democracy. I also hope that someone in our national broadcaster will break ranks & find the courage to tell us why .

🤔 I really wish more of the discourse around Cofnas, Yarvin, Musk, Thiel etc and their successful lynching of a Black academic would refer to @quinnslobodian.com's "Hayek's Bastards: The Neoliberal Roots of the Populist Right" tracing Silicon Valley's route from Ayn Rand to 'race science.'

exactly 💯 on LLMs: they simulate the output we call language, not the cognitive capacity we call language!

#Belfast / lots of maritime themes on the banks of the River Lagan. The extension to Waterfront Hall evokes the bow of a ship.

#Belfast / Industrial heritage Harland & Wolff Samson & Goliath cranes over the building dock and the Scirocco Works chimney. Scirocco manufactured what we’d now call HVAC systems used on H&W ships.

#Belfast / the bar library Not a library of bars A library for members of the bar

A spanish galleon, made in Spain, docked in Belfast!

‘Jack, aged 10’ gets it 😉

WHY IS THE UK GOVERNMENT STILL USING X AS THEIR MAIN SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE?

He’s a malignant virus.

Musk IPO, value falls, Musk related press noise. Couldn’t possibly be related, no…

& the rest of the world apply tariffs for the uncontrolled leakage of methane (‘natural’) gas over the past 20+ yrs?

Millionaires including Gary Lineker and Brian Eno write to Andy Burnham asking to be taxed more, telling him: “we can afford it”. #PatrioticMillionaires says a 2% tax on wealth over £10 million could raise £24bn a year for the UK, while reforms to capital gains tax could raise a further £12bn.

[Elluswamy] said the growth in robotaxi miles driven is "literally exponential. Just it's in the early part of the exponential. That's why it's hard for others to comprehend." Your mathematics teacher would like to have a word about that!

Kinda prefer the FAA to concentrate on safety.

A reminder that this is the guy we're all now supposed to be listening to on the subject of the safety of MPs

Abbey Road DLR station has confused so many Beatles fans that TfL installed a sign directing them to the real Abbey Road at St John's Wood, North West London. So I thought it would be fun to bring the Beatles to East London instead, staging a tiny reunion cutout from a poster.

Just a couple of thoughts related to US aerospace, UAVs, & others. B-21 - $700mn a pop UKR FP-1 OWA UAV - $55k a pop 13k OWA UAVs for one B-21 (whose lifetime fleet cost is $203bn) While US tech bro business is obsessed packet delivery?

Farage versus Binface is absolute the summer we deserve
