Israel says it will return to ceasefire hours after carrying out strikes on Gaza - live updates Hamas and Israel accuse each other of violations, as hospital sources in Gaza say death toll reaches 44 and IDF says two soldiers killed.

Not an expert but pretty sure this isn’t how ceasefires are supposed to work.

UK restrictions are again in place for any meat and dairy from EU as β€œto avoid foot and mouth”.

How is it that the EU works just *fine* re borders, markets but the UK can’t figure out how to operate *post Brexit* with total control over whatever it wants.

I just wanted to gift friends some cheese!

WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree?

TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know.

WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution?

TRUMP: I don't know

Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation What would you say if you saw it in another country?

Kidnapping.

Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping.

Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking.

A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

My dear friend’s niece, who in October developed sepsis when a Georgia hospital refused her a D&C after a miscarriage, will be taken off life support tomorrow.

I don’t know the names of the countless others who have suffered and will suffered because of anti-abortion laws.

But her name was Haley.

Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits β€” forcing more disabled people and children into poverty β€” the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over Β£10 million.

It would raise Β£24 billion β€” five times the savings from these cuts.

This is austerity 2.0

US judge bars Musk, DOGE from further efforts to shut down USAID A federal judge on Tuesday blocked billionaire Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency from taking any more steps to shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development, saying their efforts to close the agency likely violated the U.S. Constitution.

Although I am sure further shinnanigans will come up, judges overruling the USAID cuts Trump & Musk were attempting to make is some good news we can all celebrate today.

It was going to inflict untold damage on the humanitarian sector and beneficiaries worldwide.

Peatlands, which cover just 3% of Earth's surface, store 550 billion tonnes of carbonβ€”twice as much as all forests combined.

However, some 15% of them have been drained for agriculture.

Protecting these carbon sinks is vital #ForPeopleForPlanet.

kyle_maclachlan Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn't recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision.
What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to.
Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I'd ever met.
David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath.
While the world has lost a remarkable artist, l've lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own.
I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We'd talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh.
His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other.
I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he's gone.
David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything.
