I know it’s part of general policy but it would be nice to see it expressed explicitly about Cornish devolution

It’s not about independence but giving the people an equal footing within U.K. law to the other Celtic nations

And not a wider do-called “Devonwall” - Cornish are Celts, like the Welsh

Truth is always the first victim of disinformation

Long thread but worth reading because the majority are being silenced by a minority of loud voices

🚨Christian children were told they'd "be Muslim by year 6"!🚨

😱Sounds outrageous?

You know the drill…

If it sounds outrageous and designed to trigger you into being angry with “other” people, then you need to do some 🪏

I visited the magnificent Porta Nigra in Trier yesterday! It’s the best preserved Roman city gate north of the Alps! 🤩

I’m here for a few days with my museum buddy @drnwillburger.bsky.social Today we’re going to the State Exhibition ‘Marcus Aurelius’.

A photo of me standing in front of the huge Roman city gate known as the ‘Porta Nigra’ in Trier yesterday. The afternoon sun is shining through an upper window.

Really crucial game for Japan if they are going to qualify for the MT20 World Cup. They've struggled to score fast enough against Qatar but they are putting in a surge at the end.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

Hadn’t thought of that

But yes, it was part of the British military tour of East Berlin back in 1980

We all got out of the bus, and watched the changing of the guard

Pendant qu'Emmanuel Macron entretient le chaos politique français, il s'apprête en catimini à sacrifier notre agriculture en acceptant le Mercosur.

Encore une promesse trahie.

Contrairement à lui, @lesecologistes.fr continuent le combat contre ce traité aux côtés de la @confpaysanne.bsky.social !

Alors que beaucoup de partis apportent un soutien à géométrie variable aux agriculteurs·ices, Les Ecologistes sont toujours là à leurs côtés 🌻

C’était encore le cas aujourd’hui avec la @confpaysanne.bsky.social pour combattre le traité du Mercosur, que la France s’apprête à signer !

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
