Why would they turn on eachother, they have exactly the same agenda and the old guy will not live another ten years.

They are not tiptoeing, they clearly are openly fascist and thus do not like people who oppose fascism. They just know calling themselves so is bad marketing because of "historic errors".

Metabolic interplay drives population cycles in a cross-feeding microbial community - Nature Communications

Here the authors leverage a crossfeeding, engineered microbial community to demonstrate that strain abundance cycles are robust across environmental conditions. They pair this with a nonlinear dynamic model to elucidate population cycles.

She is dat too optimistic about the effect of the voting. The logic will be afterwards: we have seen no signs for liberal Democrats so all these votes for them must be wrong and will be ignored.

It’s been hard 24h for Georgians. Grave mistakes were made. Yesterday, Georgia lost a battle against Russian takeover - but the fight for freedom &democracy continues. If there’s one thing yst proved, it’s that resistance hasnt disappeared. They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds. 1/12

Als je sorry zegt tijdens een overval op een 82 jarige vrouw en als excuus gebruikt dat je problemen hebt, dan heb je inderdaad problemen, met je gevoel van moraliteit, eer, rechtvaardigheid etc. Geef jezelf aan, zoek hulp. Inbreker zegt sorry tijdens overval op 82-jarige vrouw - nos.nl/l/2585259

All three parties, Tories, Labour, and Reform Ltd, want to remove us from ECHR
They want us defenceless under the law
A vote for any of these is voting against your best interests
If you think this is about immigrants, you're being lied to
They want total control with no pushback!
Don't be fooled!

ICE are hated by so many because they operate like a Gestapo.

That Badenoch thinks creating a UK version is a vote winner tells you just how utterly stupid she is.

Een van de grootste aanvallen van Rusland op Oekraïne ooit.

Rusland heeft ongeveer 700 UAV's, tot 50 Kh-101/Caliber-raketten en 2 Kinzhals gelanceerd.

Vrijwel alles weer op civiele doelen en infrastructuur. Er zijn veel slachtoffers gevallen.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

A blueprint for designing the next-generation of synthetic C1 microbes - Nature Communications

Synthetic one-carbon assimilation could contribute to a more sustainable and circular carbon economy, but much work in this field has focused on model microorganisms. Here the authors provide their perspective on the potential value of non-model microbes, and how that potential could be realised.

The Convention on Human Rights is one of the greatest achievements of European civilisation following one of its greatest tragedies. To join Russia in leaving it would be one of the biggest acts of national self-sabotage in history and have zero positive consequences www.bbc.com/news/article...

UK will leave ECHR if Tories win election, Badenoch says

The European Convention on Human Rights has become a focal point in debates around changing immigration policy.

The world produces enough food, yet billions lack access to healthy & sustainable diets. A new EAT–Lancet report presents a science-based approach to improve health, safeguard our environment & provide for a projected 9.6 billion people by 2050.

🔗 bit.ly/3W7rxlP

Cover of the 2025 EAT–Lancet report, featuring an image of a person scooping up green vegetables in their hands from a large plate. The report quote: “The targets of the EAT–Lancet Commission for healthy people on a healthy planet with just food systems can only be met through concerted global action and unprecedented levels of transformative change.”
