The @nytimes.com climate section is profiling federal scientists who have been terminated and their work.

I spoke with tsunami expert Corina Allen, who worked to ensure tsunami alerts made it to the public. She was fired in February.

Nothing— and I mean nothing— about this decision is more than the bare desire to harm.

You ever just think about how much it sucks that Musk bought Twitter and absolutely destroyed it? Like man, that used to be where I'd meet new people, make real life friends, etc. Now, whenever I glance over there to check something, it's just unrecognizable.

I first bought, and completed, this during Covid. Life has been very unbalanced recently, so I dug it back out and it's been so comforting doing it again. Thank you @mooseallain.bsky.social 😊❤️

On the plus side: we're returning to that blissed-out period in the noughties when a £ was worth two $ and we could holiday like kings in the US. On the down side: We can't actually go to the US because they'll arrest us.

I broke my leg at 12 and thought being a doctor seemed helpful.

Now after treating thousands of patients, I know the truth:
Prevention beats treatment.
Community beats isolation.
Small habits beat big gestures.

Parkrun teaches all three.

In Praise of Kim Leadbeater

Regardless of how today's vote goes, she has shown us a politics of compromise, compassion and decency. We should treat it as proof of concept for a better kind of politics.

The Labour MP has provided a vision of what politics can be: practical, empathetic, consensual and rational.

I’d love to know what Macron knows and what he just told Meloni.
That’s one hell of a reaction.

Not sure why you need to chase Reform voters when there are millions of disaffected voters who would quite honestly make do with a Labour party that showed a bit of compassion and vision.

Enough of this racist fiction. Enough. Not a single non-white person in England is in a job in the NHS *because* they are non-white. Not a single one. And as for the idea that England's criminal justice system goes easy on non-white people because they are non-white.

Well. Just think about that.
A group of Labour MPs, peers and supporters write:

“We should legislate to root out DEI in hiring practices, sentencing decisions and wherever else we find it in our public bodies.”

Devastated to see how quickly this has arrived in the UK mainstream.

Whenever I have to go out (and I don’t feel like it) I imagine there’s a group of birds who are “people watchers” that have been waiting their whole bird lives to spot an introvert in the wild and that they’ll be telling their bird friends about me for years and it kinda helps

We despise immigrants for not putting down roots, even as we make sure that it is impossible for them to do so. We do this because we have no idea what we want.

“Starmer needs to start governing. Labour need to stop triangulating and start running the country. They are wasting the term they were given, worrying about a second one. They can do a lot of good, if they stop being terrified of losing power in 2029 and start using the power they have in 2025.”

Labour has a bad day at the polls, on a week its sister party in Australia scores a rout, following the Canadian example.

Can Starmer learn the right lessons for once?
