If you are looking to support those affected by the knife attack in #Southport on 29th July, the most effective way you can help is to give money to support the local relief effort: https://t.co/FgBernLQWx [🧵]

On this 7th year anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire, the Memorial Commission representatives and members of the #Grenfell community reflect on the importance of preserving the spontaneous messages and other expressions of loss, grief and anguish, left since the tragedy.

It was wonderful to meet Zoraida, Shammi and Tim from the @Uber team in London yesterday. We are thrilled to begin planning together for how we can support survivors of national emergencies, whenever and wherever they need our help. Our partnership has already been set in motion by Uber helping to transport some of our brilliant speakers to our emergency survivor event in London yesterday (more on this to follow). Baby Indi, the Trust's mascot for the day, also loved being shown around the fantastic Uber offices. Thank you so much for supporting the Trust!

If Jaz was a Traitor Mollie, why would he not just vote to end the game?

The lack of critical thinking by almost every single Faithful this series has been INFURIATING. #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

The key to stopping Rosebank now lies with @Equinor & its majority shareholder the Norwegian government @jonasgahrstore

But the power to make them #StopRosebank is in our hands.

Today, we put them on notice: they’re in for a fight. Add your name.

[Fascinating @fasc1nate]

This was a CIA project to spy on Russia in the 1960s They chose a cat for the job, but they didn’t consider cats hard to train.

The cat’s job was to eavesdrop on meetings outside the Soviet embassy in Washington, D.C.

The cat was wired up by a veterinary surgeon who implanted a microphone into the ear canal, a small radio transmitter at the base of the skull, and a battery buried in the flesh.

The complex project took five years to complete and consumed a whopping $20 million.

The project was shut down in 1967 because the cat couldn’t obey orders.
