President Zelensky interview by Martha Raddatz on June 7, 2025 in Kyiv, Ukraine. Complete with English subtitles on subjects ranging from Operation Spiderweb, President Trump, and most critically — Zelensky's optimism for the first time to force Putin to end the war. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvcJ...

For a while now I’ve been wondering why google keeps offering to translate my emails into Polish. None of them are related to Poland or addressed to Polish people? I just realised it meant ‘to polish’ them, i.e. tidy up. Hope the writers & language nerds over at #langsky appreciate this. 🇵🇱🤟🤦‍♀️🤭🤣

Not sure who needs to hear this but if you cut out the central maroon stem from beetroot leaves, they are like beetroot flavoured celery, and you can add them to homemade coleslaw and MAKE IT PINK AND IT IS LUSH. The green beetroot leaves can also be added to salads or cooked like spinach.

Here’s a pic of the leaves of the beetroot plant, in case anyone is wondering what I’m talking about. I can’t believe how much food we humans just waste when we only use the root..!

Working in a public #library has been going really well up until my last two shifts, which have both ended with an obstinate customer arriving within 5 minutes of closing time and expecting a full library service with really random extra requests because they are standing at the service desk.

It’s horrifying watching all this unfold in real time and I really want to stop doomscrolling but its a bit like seeing an accident happen in front of you and being unable to look away. I need to step away from the internet but I fee guilty for prioritising my own sanity and mental health.

So let me get this straight, under the Greens' alternative Budget I would have to pay a little bit more tax... and every child in my neighbourhood could go to kindy for free? *offstage muttering* AND free dental! 😲 Will no one stop these Marxist monsters??

It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

Found this slide rule in the charity shop. Going to blow the eldest kid’s mind later. It will also come in handy in the coming apocalypse… well, at least that’s my excuse for buying it! #genx #science #AcademicSky #prep ?

Call the Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121) every day and ask: Why isn’t my Senator/Representative calling to impeach? You swore to defend the Constitution. We got a dictator problem. The concentration camps are here. Shout “Impeach!” All together. Every day. (Please repost.)

If it was really about protecting the kids they would have got rid of child marriage, not trans people. 😡 Sending my love to all the #trans people today. 💕🏳️‍⚧️⚧️💕

I’ve been having a bed day today, otherwise known as “post-exertion malaise” but I wanted to share this bread I made yesterday. Apricot and almond. I had to chop the almonds as we didn’t have sliced ones. 100% worth the effort, would do the same again. (I never learn) ♿️ #disabled

Today was a good day. I was working at my local library, and only one person showed up for scrabble group so I joined in. And played possibly my best game ever, against a formidable opponent! I forgot to take a picture of the finished board but I got a half way pic.

Damn right, they have earned the right to join NATO, and the EU, by stopping Russia’s advance. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 🌻 ❤️‍🩹

I cannot believe what I am seeing. 🇺🇸 officially siding with 🇷🇺!!! A momentous moment in history and not is a good way. 😰😱😔☹️

Ukraine resolution at the UN called Russia an aggressor and demands the full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders. The United States, Israel, and Russia voted against it. Every free democratic country around the globe voted in favour. #EndImpunity

Please don't email HR@opm.gov and send them random photos of your meals or cat, don't send your list of favorite shows. Elon says it's for serious things only.

Loving the creative names on this thread for the orangutang-in-chief. It just shows that even at times of great peril and uncertainty humans have an innate ability to laugh and lift the mood. And boy does it need lifting…

Given the clown appointments, the purging of high ranking military I can only conclude that Fanta Fuhrer is planning either to unleash the military on American civilians or he's gearing up to invade somewhere. This is crazy shit.

This week, Kaja Kalla had the honour of receiving a flag from Major General Serhii Salkutsan. This flag was carried into combat and accompanied the marines on their most critical missions, from the intense battles for Kherson to the fierce defence of the bridgehead in Krynky. MoD UA / Instagram

European Parliament@europarl.europa.eu

🇪🇺 🇺🇦 The European Parliament is lighting up in the colours of the Ukrainian flag to show its commitment and solidarity with the country and its people. As we mark three years since the start of Russia’s full-scale war of aggression, we continue to #StandWithUkraine.

Some good to combat the bad, but it’s still scary watching all this from across the pond..

You know who believed Project 2025 would be important if there was a Trump 2.0? Democratic state attorneys general. They used it as a guide last year and were ready to file suits on Day One. Their challenges to birthright citizenship were pulled "right off the shelf.” 🎁 wapo.st/3CQ22iU

Waging an unprovoked war of choice, 🇷🇺 likes to spin a tale of a neighborly dispute that spiraled into a ‘conflict’ to be resolved through negotiations This framing is cynical & callous, but many nations around the world adopt it—absolving themselves of responsibility https://buff.ly/3D2XNjQ
