Why was the Berlin marathon so hot this year? One clear answer: fossil fuels
Sunday's average temperature was 11°F higher than average. This was twice as likely by climate change, according to @climatecentral.org's Climate Shift Index
Thanks Harriet!

New polling reveals a clear warning to ministers: backtrack on the Warm Homes Plan, and you risk losing the trust of your voters.

You’d cause real damage to the punditry industry if you made them write columns about how they don’t really know

A pleasure to talk to Mike. In which we say the word ‘bullshit’ a great deal and it doesn’t get any less pleasing.
14.05.2025 20:31 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0‘Bullshit’ means any narrative that is designed to persuade without regard to which bits of it, if any, are true. In politics, another term for it is populism. It is poisonous. The consequences for all those who suck it up are devastating. If we allow it to remain so normal, we will suffer for it.

which is the one in which the entire train carriage smells like the khazi, because they rigged up the out pipe of the toilet aircon next to the inpipe of the carriage aircon? If I've got a hangover I could do with that info.

Why is the Daddy Party allowed to rant & rave & do impulsive, stupid shit & never, ever be held to account, while the Mommy Party is endlessly scolded & lectured & second-guessed by everyone, even when it is earnestly trying to do the right thing?
Gosh. What a puzzler.
