Anyone who believes they can carry on living peacefully because they are not part of a minority and are not being targeted should read Niemöller again.

Construction of enemies by fascism never stops.

I know people who served in the GDR army, who were nowhere near any action and yet they pay a price for playing a part in an authoritarian movement by having a “Penalty Pension” i.e. a reduced pension… every ICE employee should also see some consequences! #fascismInUSA #whatAreWeWatching

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

And WTF why are there still people flying to conferences and business meeting in the US - or having a nice holiday abroad there?
How???

Am I the only one who thinks the cancellation of the World Cup in the US is long overdue?
Or who thinks: Let them go ahead with it, but without all the teams whose countries can still call themselves democratic?
It disgusts me that this is not socially condemned.

Evidence from random roommate assignment and a gaming ban for minors in China once again show what I now believe incredibly strongly: smartphones and social media destroy civilization

via @arpitrage.bsky.social
JOURNAL ARTICLE ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Digital Distractions with Peer Influence: The Impact of Mobile App Usage on Academic and Labor Market Outcomes Getaccess > Panle Jia Barwick, Siyu Chen, Chao Fu, Teng Li The Quarterly Journal of Economics, qjaf048, https://doi.org/10.1093/qje/qjaf048 Published: 17 October 2025 66 Cite P Permissions < Share v Abstract Concerns about excessive mobile phone use among youth are mounting. We present estimates of both behavioral and contextual peer effects, along with comprehensive evidence on how students' own and their peers' app usage affect academic performance, physical health, and labor market outcomes. Our analysis draws on administrative data from a Chinese university covering three student cohorts over four years. We exploit random roommate assignments, differential exposure to a policy shock (gaming restrictions for minors), and differential exposure to a discrete event (the introduction of a blockbuster video game) for identification. App usage is contagious: a one s.d. increase in roommates' in-college app usage raises own usage by 5.8%. High app usage is harmful across all measured outcomes. A one s.d. increase in app usage reduces GPAs by 36.2% of a within-cohort-major s.d. and lowers wages by 2.3%. Roommates' app usage reduces a student's GPAs and wages through both disruptions and behavioral spillovers, generating a total negative effect that exceeds half the magnitude of the impact from the student's own app usage. Extending China's three-hour-per-week gaming restriction for minors to college students would boost their initial wages by 0.9%. High-frequency GPS and app usage data show that heavy app users spend less time in study halls, are more frequently late or absent from class, and get less sleep.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.
This is the saddest day of my professional life. Today is not only the final recording of the latest series of The Infinite Monkey Cage, it is my last ever Monkey Cage. I never thought that I would have to leave the show. I always imagined going on until | dropped dead under the studio lights due to a brain aneurysm caused by my final attempt to understand notions of quantum gravity or the shock of being told about fly maggot infestations in the sacks of macaque monkeys. I resigned in September, after sixteen years of dedication to the show, A show that I named and helped develop over all those years. Unfortunately, my opinions outside the BBC have been considered problematic for sometime, whether it has been voicing support for the trans community, criticism of Donald Trump, numerous other outlandish opinions, including once gently criticising Stephen Fry. These things were considered to conflict with being a freelance BBC science presenter In a recent meeting where BBC Studio executives again voiced problems with me, I realised my choices. Obedience and being quieter to remain making Monkey Cage, or 'Resign and have the freedom to speak out against what I believe are injustices'. • I chose the latter. It broke my heart. I love this show and I love the audience, and it is because of the audience in particular, that this decision was so difficult to make. I kept thinking about all the extremist voices promoting hate and division. They are being given so many platforms, while voices that represent kindness, open mindedness, empathy seem to be scarcer and scarcer. I felt I couldn't pamper myself with the luxury of silence. One of my many privileges is that I am able to resign and I can speak out even if it is to the detriment of my career. I have thought a lot about my heroes, Sinead O Connor, James Baldwin, Audre Lorde, and so many more. I think of Sinead's words, "the job of an artist is to be themselves at any cost". James Baldwin said prejudice was really just a word for cowardice. Audre Lorde, viewing her life, wrote that her only regrets were her silences. I think of my father as I resign, he brought me up to believe in fairness , justice and kindness. Though my heart is broken, it is also full of fire. I apologise to our incredible listeners for my departure, your love of the show means a great deal. I am so sorry to let you down. I hope that you can understand my reasoning. I have to accept that I am not what the current BBC expects of their freelance presenters. Despite this I should add that I have always worked far more than my contracted hours to try and ensure the show was always the best it could be, as well as making myself accessible and responsive to the audience wherever and whenever I met them. Every night, we have recorded, I have been filled with determination to make the best show possible. This was not "just a job" I hope that with my departure I can be a better ally to the LGBTQ community, to the neurodivergent community, to activists fighting against those who aim to brutalise society, to those currently in prison on hunger strike, and to all those who fight for a more inclusive world. From many conversations, I know there are many Monkey Cage listeners who support these communities and activists too. The strawberry is dead. Long live the strawberry. B

As @doctorvive.bsky.social has pointed out a quadrillion times, it such a moment of significant and extreme alarm that fossi lfuel industry talking points are being shamelessly and bluntly repeated by people like this

Very, very, very grim

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said today that the fight against climate change was not against the fuels that cause it — only the pollution they emit.
Von der Leyen says EU is not fighting fossil fuels, only emissions
The comment could undermine European countries’ push at COP30 to move away from coal, oil and gas.

Gries Glacier
1919 | 2025

Over last 12 months it has lost 6 meters in thickness at the bottom and even the top has melted! 🧊🔥

Between 2000 and 2023, the glacier lost 800 m in length, and is now 3.2 km shorter than in 1880! 📈

Average thickness, now only 57 m... 😱

As we scale up renewables, one thing becomes crystal clear: without storage, the energy transition will stall.

Batteries aren’t just for cars. They’re also crucial for grids, industry, and heating.

40% of global shipping is just moving around fossil fuels

2/3 of US energy production is just wasted in delivery
zaneselvans.org Zane Selvans @zaneselvans.org · Sep 17
The crazy reduction in the material throughput of a post-fossil energy system is hard to convey. It's both less materials, and the materials play a fundamentally different role in the system. They don't flow through it once. They reside, maybe almost forever.
