I think I am going to have to write an "in defence of cities" piece as a response to all those who think it will be lovely to turn the whole world into one big suburbia where we do sensible clerical work on our laptops before going for a walk.

If you're missing the solar eclipse now, get ready for the total solar eclipse next year, 2 August 2027.

It will be visible on Southern Europe and North Africa. 78% from Athens

Quite the eclipse show in Bilbao (sound on for celestial joy in its purest human form)

@samueljenkinson When I am on a UK train I long for the peace and quiet of a Belgian train where you are not being constantly told by the guard that he is in coach 5 of this 8-coach train, in followed by “If you see something that doesn’t look right… see it, say it, sorted”

This joke is from 32 years ago. Enjoy the heat.

America: the president sleeps, the secretary of health shakes under the influence of some nondescript substance, a young lady dances

@seandoherty It must be great to have a mayor who actually wants to make NYC better for the people who actually live there.

I love all the London attempts at recreating żabka

The BBC has missed the mark here with this translation in my opinion. “Difficult hours” would be a far better translation here of the original word “compleja”, I think.

Today I’ve been on a train where a lady was listening to French TV at ear splitting volume. I asked her to switch it off - she did. Now I’ve got a gentleman on speakerphone getting very irate about a refund on some shoes. Why? Why do people do this? I just FIND IT SO AWFUL 😡

Something on fire near Portsmouth?

The World’s End in Finsbury Park… very good!

@BirdingBrussels It is very annoying and quite dangerous.

Reform's view is that they should be free to abuse their political opponents in any terms they choose, but their political opponents should not be allowed to respond in kind. And they should just admit it, rather than keep making themselves look ridiculous like this.

[char @livsmayfield]

what's stopping us from acting like this is the real final and ignoring that other match?

[Acyn @Acyn]

Ossoff: Who won the 2020 election?

Clayton: I’m not going to get into that with you.

Ossoff: Isn't it humiliating to be unable to answer this question, to have to indulge the president's delusions?
