Tied nearly dead to a barbed wire fence in freezing weather, where he wasn't found for nearly 24 hours. He died six days later in the hospital. Human cruelty knows no bounds.

BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

Sci Fi has always been a lens to discuss the now, only tangentially about the future and even then mostly as a warning of the consequences of current trends

Seriously, Judges *do no do things like this*

They don't give their opinion to the media

They don't criticize how SCOTUS works

This is them breaking the emergency glass, folks

The US has finalized its $20 billion bailout for Argentina.

Too bad it only benefits one American: a billionaire hedge fund manager, who has placed large bets on the future of the Argentine economy.

The Frog Costume has gone from $25 to almost $40 on amazon over the last week. There's an army brewing.

Frogs together strong 🐸

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device.

So the business model is dependent on theft.

“In a city once choked with cars and infamous for its traffic snarls, Paris has pulled off a remarkable turnaround…the French capital has officially become Europe’s best city for children to walk, cycle, and move around independently.” Via @momentummag.bsky.social

A victory for FAST leadership.

It’s a sign of how far to the right British politics have been driven that the extremist idea of leaving the ECHR is now mainstream. The correct response by a journalist when a British politician says they want to leave the ECHR ought to be an incredulous: "Are you out of your tiny mind?"

2019: Priti Patel celebrates Brexit with the ending Freedom of Movement with the EU

2025: Simon Calder explains the new EU entry-exit system, where, now outside the EU, Brits will be fingerprinted and have face scans to enter the EU

Huge congratulations to @kamalimelbourne.bsky.social on holding a firm line in such a calm and professional way, faced with such utterly offensive nonsense. ~AA

RIP such a familiar face from decades of British TV shows
