I often feel that the greedy destroyers in this world – those destroying nature &/or harming people – have not once in their lives felt at peace, or marveled at simple natural beauty, or felt humbled by it.
Yes, our collective power must stop their harm..., but it's also sad what they have become.

LEAVE Twitter already, folks. Get the fuck off there.
The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline.
It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient.
It’s really hard. But there it is.

It’s shameful that any British or European politician or organisation still use X. For pities sake close your accounts now.
After this weekend's racist attacks on the EU, I've written a column about the moral obligation to stop posting on X.
Oh no, wait, I wrote it *two years ago* when it was blatantly obvious what was going on and how it would get much much worse.
