EU digital strategy Code of Practice on Disinformation said social media new laws combating fake news, bot-driven impersonation & Russian agitprop, found X the worse offender (with Facebook 2nd). Need to find a new home - which is sad as I loved Twitter. https://t.co/CImj7yJfX6
.@BBCRadio4#DesertIslandDiscs rarely fails to impress, but as you would expect, true gems are few and far between. The wait is always worth it though, and @AdrianEdmondson certainly meets that criteria with aplomb. https://t.co/PI4smDJ7Ly
Will be following new Muizzu presidency with interest. But already in debt trap worth sizeable chunk of its Gross National Income, be careful of what else you wish for Maldives in any new China First. https://t.co/FJCsL3DRHI
Wonderful watching the enthusiasm of @CressidaCowell on @BBCBreakfast but wonder at 63-years, and without 9-10 y o grandchildren currently, if I’m still kid-enough to read the magical #WhichWayRoundtheGalaxy ?
Thanks McNeela for my lovely new Wren 2 concertina. Only just up to @JackTalty beginner lesson #2 but already sense I’m going to really enjoy learning concertina from scratch.
Encouraging to hear @ian_livingstone talk of @LABournemouth Livingstone Academy @BBCr4today . Need ‘A’ of arts adding creativity and culture to curriculum through STE(A)M not unfit-for-purpose STEM. https://t.co/wHkPLMEPaf
Sought out some quiet in @theRSAorg this am & happened on Vikki Heywood room + R. Buckminster Fuller/Kiyoshi Kuromiy Critical Path of 1981. As PM bactracks today on Net Zero commitments, 85 y.o RBF’s talk of “earthians” , “spaceship earth” & “Earth Inc.” still rings true.
Wow. Last of the Giants: Wild Fish: Lost Island Predators: Cyril Chauquet fishes French Polynesia for apex predator Giant Trevally. Says in ancient Hawaii ‘ulua’ seen as a god & used in sacrifices when no human was available! Known to me as a ‘Mooda Handi’ https://t.co/SmO87r155b

I realise like all of us treats are meant to be kept to a mimimum for our health & wellbeing…,,,but who could deny a chicken some pleasure in some fresh corn nibs occassionally? 🐔 🌽
Rightly a lot of focus on illegal sewage outfall to rivers but as @PAN_UK research says: 36 pesticides used in UK are banned in EU with 13 Highly Hazardous incl. 4 highly toxic to bees, 1 contaminating water & 1 highly toxic to aquatic organisms. https://t.co/4BCU2BmxHh
Been a few years (pre Covid) since I last fished @bolton_abbey but worth the 4am alarm and drive to be fishing from 7 before the heat kicked-in. Lovely otter paw print seen too on the bank where I caught my first trout. 🐾 🦦
“….as ever with (Bradley) Cooper, the pure theatrical technique is very commanding – though there are moments when Lenny is bashing away at the piano keyboard, that Cooper looks a tiny bit like Michael Douglas playing Liberace”. https://t.co/nsbd8LELDR
