Why does iOS systematically autocorrect we’re to were? 🤬 gets me every time… how to stop it?🤔

I sure hope so. Both our cars are electric now, our hot water is mostly heated by the sun, we have no gas in the house (heat pump), we don’t fly, we have drastically reduced the meat in our diet,… perhaps it’s all for nothing, but were damn well doing it anyway!

Siri, who in the UK press works for Legatum, and where is Legatum based? 🤔🧐

Genuine questions: could these people be in the pay of the regime? And would that, to use language some of them favour, make them both ‘economic migrants’ *and* ‘welfare scroungers’?

Oh, they’re great at coordinating the messaging from their masters, across multiple channels #Presstitutes

As a vet who served in 3 wars, 2 of which were in the Middle East, I can say with a degree of certainty that Hegseth is a fucking moron.

In 2025, solar and wind produced more power than fossil fuels in the European Union

If only humanity can survive the death throes of late-stage capitalism funded by the hydrocarbon oligarchy, the future of energy is bright.

So fed up with oil wars, but glad I switched to an EV.

Public service announcement: this is a FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS

Not an 'energy crisis'. People need energy: it keeps them alive. This is a crisis due to forced dependency on the most unreliable and unstable fuel product in human history.

THIS IS A FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS.

The dumbest twat on the planet and the President of the United States should be two different people. But here we are.

Iran is turning Telaviv into Gaza. 🤔

Farage will install a UK version of Project 2025, complete with UK ICE, deregulation on hazardous chemicals, reduction of food labelling standards, removal of abortion rights etc. Why? Because that’s what he is paid to do. If you vote for Reform then Brexit taught you nothing: you’re still a mark.

Newspaper columnists who have nice little earners on the side getting told what they will write from their neoliberal think tank donors:

Donald J. Trump • @realDonaldTrump The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

A certain Donald Trump thought it was a shit idea in 2019… there’s always a tweet

there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists

Well said. My soldiers would have had utter contempt for this clown.

We all misspeak. We're human. But when people misspeak and they don't immediately correct themselves, it's a behavior that's correlated with personalities who are significantly dishonest.

100+ Complaints From Troops Over 'Divine Plan' Rhetoric Service members allege commanders are framing Iran conflict as biblically ordained battle

Well this is disturbing. I for one am not in favor of Armageddon.

Meidas Touch is referring to Operation Epic Fury, the current military actions against Iran, as "Operation Epstein Fury".

‼️Netanyahu🇮🇱:

1995: “Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb”
2006: “Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb”
2012: “Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb”
2015: “Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb”
2108: “Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb”
2025: “Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb”‼️

This is what happens when oligarchs control the *news*

Same robbing of the public purse by profiteers too
