🇱🇧 by starting to target random apartment buildings that don’t hold any strategic value, Israel has now moved to the “hostages” phase of its war. “Give us what we want or we will keep killing hostages”. With hostages being our homes and livelihoods.

Most Lebanese sectarian communities—Sunnis, Maronites, and Druze—have in the past sought outside alliances to impose their power domestically, and all later came to regret it, returning to the state. Is it now the Shiites' turn? Mine for Diwan: https://t.co/nA8eFCz4Ms

I love asking people to guess how big passenger pigeon flocks could get. 100,000 birds? A million?

Try two billion. In 1860 one writer described a flock of birds a mile wide that took *14 hours* to pass overhead, packed so dense that it blocked the sun.

You want to reduce the carbon footprint of your food?

Focus on what you eat, not whether your food is local. Transport emissions are very small for most food products.

Remember when everyone swore they were just looking for tunnels and hostages? Remember when they said we were hysterical I mean bigots for claiming they would absolutely ethnically cleanse and annex Gaza? Remember when every red line was crossed with total impunity?

The real worry is that Italy's Meloni - who has so far been 'responsible' on foreign policy (eg pro-Ukraine) - could return to her nativist roots and become Trump's special friend in the EU. /2

Thanks Jeff Lawson for buying the Onion so we could get this great zoom in on electoral coverage. No other news source has gone to this level of detail.

Australia just shut down its 3G network, but some fairly new phones that work perfectly on 4G (including making emergency calls on 4G) are being blocked on spurious grounds by telcos.

[Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative @fossiltreaty]

(English below)

🌎🔥 El presidente Gustavo Petro ha sido un líder global por un Tratado De No-proliferación De Combustibles Fósiles, y en la #COP16, una vez más abordó: "Los intereses petroleros no tienen la culpa; tampoco el carbono ni el gas. […] El petróleo, para nosotros, no es más que el significado de la muerte, absorbido por el planeta y convertido en energía, combustible que usamos para la codicia y la expansión a gran escala del capital. Esa relación económica, en la que unos pocos ganan mientras el resto trabajamos para ellos, nos quita nuestro trabajo. No vivimos bien, pero ellos sí. […] La explotación es la razón del fin de la humanidad".

🌎🔥 President Gustavo Petro has been a global leader for a Fossil Fuel Non-proliferation Treaty, and at #COP16, he once again addressed: "Oil interests aren’t to blame; neither is carbon nor gas. […] Oil, for us, is nothing but the significance of death, absorbed by the planet and turned into energy, fuel that we use for greed and the large-scale expansion of capital. That economic relationship, in which a few earn while the rest of us work for them, takes away our labour. We do not live well, but they do.[…] The exploitation is the reason for the end of humanity.”
