Word of the day is ‘laughter-lit’ (19th century): animated and restored by laughing alongside others.

That is what @JaneyGodley gave to many of us.

[Ed Synnott @ed_synnott]

@JaneyGodley Janey - you have made me laugh harder than I thought possible at times when there was no light. You’ve stood up for people being persecuted when you yourself have been persecuted. You are a hero and a warrior: a gift to the world. Wishing you all strength and love.

This, watch this. If the UK now plans to create a lot more new housing, there is massive inspiration here for how to get going.

[Ed Synnott @ed_synnott]

@SouthernWater Dear Southern Water - surely you have a responsibility to get water to people - not expect people to get to you. People without transport are unable to pick up in any quantity. Why not drop water at streets affected? Waiting in lengthy queues for water is not ok.

Journalists being told we can’t access the main press conference room #Cop28 without special tickets. And an escort. Security won’t let us through. This is absurd. Not transparent and very not helpful.

an author of the big new climate report turned it into haiku and i don't think a scientist has ever communicated so clearly
