I would question the ‘of course’ bit of your statement.

Well, he was hardly carrying in the 'open'. It was in it's sheath on his belt and he was carrying a trug.

This right here......

Nice to see you on Bluesky..

Hadn’t thought of it that way before…

Your regular reminder that there are only 2 countries in the world with religious clerics guaranteed seats in government or parliament: Iran… and the UK.

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

Bless her heart.

Can confirm.

Zonal pricing would make energy bills cheaper... Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Great Britain wastes billions of pounds switching off wind turbines & wasting energy.

Zonal energy pricing would put that energy to work & make bills cheaper.

Spot on as usual from @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social

On the one hand an MP found to have told the truth about a minor conviction, on the other an MP found to have lied about being locked up for kicking seven bells out of a young woman...

When I see research results like these here my conviction to teach people a basic gut feeling of data grows stronger. Folks think that one in five people are transgender?! That’s soooo off. People think that 40% have served in the military?! That’s one of the reasons I share so many charts and maps.

Elon Musk Admits X Is Making It Harder for People to Read News The world’s richest man has finally admitted he’s essentially censoring news articles on X.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear that Elon Musk has now admitted that X (formerly Twitter) is throttling link-based posts, essentially stifling news articles on the social media platform. Thankfully we now have @bsky.app

Jeremy Clarkson, who owes his fame & fortune in large part to the BBC, sneers at the brilliant @vicderbyshire.bsky.social for being ‘classic BBC’ when she uses *his own words* to describe his position.

I heard that Andrew Tate tried to come stretch his awkward wings here and got banned in just one day.

Sorry, hate has no home here. Stay in the bad place, thanks.

An article from Fortune magazine says that Elon Musk’s AI labels him “one of the most significant spreaders of misinformation on X”

Grok was asked who spreads the most misinformation on X and it did not hesitate to name its own creator

"Based on various analyses, social media sentiment, and reports, Elon Musk has been identified as one of the most significant spreaders of misinformation on X since he acquired the platform," it wrote, later adding "Musk has made numerous posts that have been criticized for promoting or endorsing misinformation, especially related to political events, elections, health issues like COVID-19, and conspiracy theories. His endorsements or interactions with content from controversial figures or accounts with a history of spreading misinformation have also contributed to this perception."

Musk’s own AI identifies him as a major dissemination of misinformation online
