Aliens are real. Green anarchism and generally poor takes. All opinions my own etc.

@OpenChiswickW4 @McFlavour7 You throw accusations a lot more than you actually address points made!
I haven't lumped anyone, nor have I made the claims you suggest. Buses are fundamentally more accessible for those that need accessible transport than bikes, walking, or cars.

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@OpenChiswickW4 @Asmo_Hazuki @McFlavour7 Please elaborate how someone with a broken leg, or say an elderly person with COPD, can safely and comfortably walk or ride a bike over 200m? Don't deflect saying I'm trying to justify cars, I'm not, I'm advocating sensible public buses.

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@OpenChiswickW4 @McFlavour7 The only person demeaning the elderly/disabled is you.

For some people walking or cycling over the bridge is not a physically feasible option; to suggest removing buses increases accessibility, (as you did 2 replies prior,) for those who need such is obviously incorrect.

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@OpenChiswickW4 @McFlavour7 When there was a poll of 2573 Hammersmith residents after the closure, 67% said they most commonly traveled over the bridge by bus. Only 5% said cycling.

To suggest a bike is more/equally accessible as a bus or car to the elderly/disabled is ridiculous.

i love how scientists for the past like 70yrs have been like “1.5°c rise in global temp would be catastrophic”. and not only have we hit that, but it’s like we’re aiming for 5°c as a goal or something. lmfaoooo we’re all gunna fucking did dude

People are dragging him for walking in with his finger on the trigger but you have to understand that he’s trained to do that when he sees children

It’s hard to believe but this is a picture of the United States reflecting pool before the revolution happened. The US was once a very westernized country

@BigDave324132 @owenjonesjourno London is 51% green (parks, gardens, street trees etc) and blue (rivers, ponds, etc) spaces. It's famous for being one of the greenest cities in Europe.
Concrete jungle sure, but get a grip with your nonsense.

dense old growth forests used to cover 75% of england. that is now down to 13% with about 3% of that being ancient woodland due to ecological efforts in the wake of the ruin that the rise of profit-oriented industry wrought. the landscape in these images is artificial.

Try being on a bus two hours earlier and you'll find out.

[Alastair Hilton @London_W4]

I’m on a train right now heading to central London and almost everyone on here is white. I’ve noticed that every time I’m on a commuter train at crack of dawn in the morning, there are almost only white people commuting to work. Every time I walk across London Bridge in the morning rush hour, almost everyone is white. The rest of the day, white people are a tiny minority in London. I can’t imagine why that would be.

[Gerry Samuels @GerrySamuels12]

Lots of Boomers seem to be remembering the summer of 1976 with rose tinted spectacles, & think that they ‘just got in with it’

Let’s have a look at what the newspapers of the day had to say in 1976….

@DJ_Stotty @JackDunc1 The baseline is shifting, as you yourself note in another of your replies; there has been a 0.9° average increase over the last 50 years.

Your 3yr question is an unlikely hypothetical. No, as you stated yourself; climate change is recorded over decades, not 3 years.

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@DJ_Stotty @JackDunc1 A 0.9°C average increase over just 50 years is very significant and is an indicator of climate change, not an "only".
Weather stations record temperatures using PRTs in a standardised Stevenson screen box. Here's a basic educational starting point for you:

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@DJ_Stotty @JackDunc1 He is not wrong to; more frequent and more extreme heatwaves are absolutely one of the effects of climate change.

Here's a well-referenced article:

And here's a scientific paper detailing consequences of such changes:

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

@DJ_Stotty @JackDunc1 Jack isn't just talking of this heatwave event, he's reflecting about it in the wider context of climate trends.
Your AI prompt on the other hand, does not.
Perhaps try reading a book or a scientific paper on the matter, instead of talking to LLMs.

[lizzie @ancientsaltdepo]

i think people from the US officially lost their right to being smug and mock chinas authoritarian surveillance state the past decade or so

you have AI flock cameras, palantir, massive surveillance state, being slave to billionaires, cant even touch a pool of water

[thelefttake @thelefttake]

Yeah man let’s do a revolution and overthrow these random fucking shift workers and homeless people instead of the people who own literally everything.

[Ambrose @ThatAmbrose]

Calling generic American anti-fascism a "violent ideology" is the alarming bit, alongside the judge saying the sentences were to send a message to others with the same "ideology".

History tends to shine quite brightly on those who dare to fight back against the creep of fascism.

[Mark Hemingway @Heminator]

His wife was involved in the attempted murder of a police officer. She asked him to hide evidence of her violent ideology from the authorities who were investigating. Obstruct a felony attempted murder investigation and you should expect a sentence!

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Palantir, the US surveillance company thats been enabling and profiting from Israels genocide, should have no role in the NHS (or any other UK public service).

We need to kick them out.
