Unearthed these vinyls from the 70's and 80's from my grandparents' old things. Some of my family's most treasured possessions - that no one seemed to care about.

This is what I'm doing when I say I'm 'working from home'. Good beer alone on Valentines Day :3

My best friend thought I meant cherries when I said "🍒". Such innocence.

Am I the only person who lived in London for almost 2 years but hasn't been to a Wetherspoon or Greggs?
Wetherspoon has confirmed prices will be cut in 770 pubs from Thursday, January 2 until Thursday, January 16, or from Friday, January 3 until Thursday, January 16 in Scotland.

Personally, I would'nt set foot in any one of Tim Martin's watering holes until he starts treating his staff properly.

You could bring up how she's an Oscar nominee with a long track record on Broadway (and Ariana Grande is *neither* and has had a very thin acting resume in the last ~decade), but NGL it's kind of pointless given how gross it is - "if a Black person gets any job whatsoever they're a diversity hire"

Investment in clean technology manufacturing is surging as countries look to gain an economic edge, strengthen energy security & cut emissions

Most of today’s factories are in China, the EU, the US & increasingly India, but the opportunities are global 👉 https://iea.li/4gsA1fT

My 2024

Good: travelled to 3 Southeast Asian countries, lost 10 kgs

Bad: let's not revisit this, it's been rough

Cool stuff by @wwattribution.bsky.social. Growing up in India I've actually witnessed the change in rainfall. It's evident most in places with inadequate and inefficient drainage infrastructure and in farmlands.

Along with 'more severe/ likely' rainfall there's also irregular monsoon patterns.
How extreme was the weather this year? Is a question we, @wwattribution.bsky.social , get asked every year. Looking back at the events we studied in detail & some new stats, we try to give an answer www.worldweatherattribution.org/when-risks-b... - in short: it was pretty bad, but things can change!

I've not been able to write 800 words for my Oxford application in the last 4 months.

Why is it so tough to find other environmental economists who love Pokemon/ anime like me?

Saw this statue next to my hotel in Bangkok and thought I'll share what I love about LGBTQ inclusiveness in Hindusim.

This is Ardhanarishvara, a form of Shiva and Parvati, who is a half man and a half woman. 'Ardh' means 'half', 'nari' means 'woman', and 'ishwar' means lord (Shiva/ masculine).

Rajasthani architecture is insane. This is the stepwell (Chand Baori) where they shot Bruce Wayne's 'prison' scenes in The Dark Knight Rises.

I think I really should start my own sustainable brewery. Gonna get some connections when I'm in Bangkok.

EU on Article 6 at #COP29

We did deliver on Article 6, & that is a leap forward…We have witnessed the historical conclusion of the rule book for carbon markets. We now have standards with a UN stamp of approval…This will drive investment, raise ambition & bring transparency and higher standards.

#COP29 PLOT TWIST

After a string of very unhappy interventions over the state of the UAE dialogue draft on stocktake follow-up, COP president Mukhtar Babayev DID NOT adopt the text

"In view of these concerns from the parties", he proposes it be taken up again next year, for a decision at COP30

Probably the best animation I've seen in a series. Arcane is incredible.
