It might sound as an insane idea, especially because it took 83 days of planning, dreaming, building and filming, but in the end The Brick Wall gave you a video of a cucumber house being constructed using a LEGO robot [full video: https://t.co/EOQm8iR8gn]

This video shows a rather rare event, a waterspout touching down and becoming a tornado. It happened in Palermo, Sicily on August 6, 2020 [source, full video + more point of views: https://t.co/QHzg1FIfUt]

@JoakimRonning Väntar med spänning på ett Sydafrikanskt avsnitt som täcker in Boerkriget, Cecil Rhodes, apartheid, Mandela, Zuma, familjen Gupta, och Gaddafi, etc. 😉

What on earth happened?

We take a look at this in this week's @TheEconomist cover package.

@JoakimRonning @direktmartin Väldigt underhållande avsnitt, men jag hoppas att vi kan vara överens om att fission och fusion inte hör till kategorin ”tomejto, tomato” 🍅💥🍒
