Next NATO state he's threatening?

Hereditary Peers Bill passes in House of Lords, paving the way for further reform The Hereditary Peers Bill has passed in the House of Lords in one of the biggest reforms to Parliament and UK democracy in a generation.

And it is done. Who your dad is no longer gives you a guaranteed say on the law of the land. We have tonight done what so many Labour people have sought to do throughout our history: no more hereditary peers

Good - welcome to modernity.

A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.

If we survive this, I really hope parents take a long look at how they are teaching empathy to their children. It's so obvious that that is the missing ingredient in huge chunks of the population, amplified by social media algorithms and cultural rewards for reactions rather than thoughtfulness.

So dark and unhinged. The Trump regime is dropping thousands of bombs for clicks.

If you’re not horrified by this you have lost the thread.

Seufz - putzen, Facharbeit lesen, Tests vorbereiten. Und irgendwie was schönes dazwischen packen.

Sun and wind don’t need the Strait of Hormuz.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

Die kolumbianische Stadt Medellín hat seit 2016 2,5 Millionen Pflanzen und 880.000 Bäume gepflanzt und dadurch die Durchschnittstemperatur der Stadt um über 2 °C gesenkt.

Apart from hideous content, somebody please arrest her for crimes against the English language!

Judging from the prose, the Pentagon appears to be using AI to announce the death of soldiers. If it’s not AI, it’s a person who simply does not care.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

My MAGA Republican representative David Rouzer voted for the SAVE Act, a law that if passed by the Senate will disenfranchise millions of North Carolinians and could affect how some residents are able to cast their ballot. #SaveActTaxesVoters and needs to die in the Senate.

Die drei von der Tankstelle - Katherina Reiche, Jens Spahn und Matthias Miersch - hatten heute die Chance, den Mieterinnen und Mietern zu erklären, warum sie für die Ideologie der Union und das fehlende Rückgrat der SPD blechen sollen.

Sie haben diese Chance verstreichen lassen. Schade.

Who should object if the US wants to overthrow a fanatically religious system?
