This, from one of the Serbian acitivists. 🙌👏

The achievements of the Serbian student movement will be studied for decades. This was their blueprint for revolution. The recipe for throwing a corrupt authoritarian from office. Read, learn, implement. (📸 Save and Saclony)

I’m sick of headlines treating these forays as something done independently. No. Anthropic created it. Anthropic did this. And they should be held to account, not some supposedly autonomous AI www.reuters.com/world/us/ant...

I wonder how much sewage the water companies are dumping during this story weekend...

71% of global emissions come from just 100 companies. But 100% of the consequences are paid by all 8 billion of us. That's why system change > just personal change.

“The principal purpose of Carbon Capture & Storage has never been to tackle the climate crisis. Instead, CCS serves to align public opinion & government policies with the fossil fuel industry’s plans for unrestricted expansion under the cover of “net-zero". www.nationalobserver.com/2022/04/06/o...

Share to spread the truth! The bird shooting industry is very good at curating its image. But behind that carefully polished picture lies the truth: birds raised in barren cages, bred in their millions just to be shot.

Genuinely I don't know that it comes across to people who haven't been here to watch how almost unbelievable this was, just people taking something that looked impossible and dragging it kicking and screaming all the way to inevitability.

Private equity buys UK fertility clinics. PE already controls social care, hospitals, GP surgeries, dentistry, child fostering. Usual business model. High debt, quality of care declines, prices increase, high profits. When things go wrong, NHS has to step in, PE doesn't pay.

Politicians should look at the UK economy as a CEO would, says Lloyds Bank CEO From a bank that hasn't investigated HBOS frauds. No thank you. Companies enrich shareholders. Countries have entirely different purpose, governance, accountability. Must not be treated as corporations. archive.ph/lj45s

Victory for Lula, who has already reduced Amazon deforestation by 70% since 2022, means there is now a chance of ending deforestation of the rainforest entirely I’m weeping with joy for Brazil, for the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon, and for life on Earth 🇧🇷🌳🌎 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

Sometimes I catch myself thinking, 'When the war ends, I'll…' And then I stop. Because I've been finishing that sentence in my head for years.

"So who is the homicidal maniac in this story? It’s a scarcely examined abstraction we call “the economy”, a monster to whom anything and everything must be sacrificed without question or resistance: farmed animals, wild ones, even, unless we are fortunate, human beings in their millions."

I warned 3 years ago that mink farms are a likely route to a new and horrific human pandemic, and once more I'm fervently praying it doesn't map out that way. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"farming mink for their fur, a cruel and pointless practice, continues in Europe, North America and China. There’s a high chance that the next pandemic, whatever it may be, will emerge in one of these places. .... we need a global treaty to ban mink farming."
