Man, LA is lit up like the gates of fucking hell. Amazing scenes.

This headline is pissing me off possibly more than it should

Celebrities! WTF? Hope they can escape to their second homes unharmed 🙏

And hope they took their Oscars with them too for safe keeping.

14yo stabbed to death on a London bus. Just unfathomably tragic

There's so much smoke at the moment - it's dark outside at 9am.

I hope you're doing ok! Are you under evacuation order? Looks like the hills we were riding ages ago are all basically on fire from the maps.

You're a celebrity? 🤩

They are fixie famous

Yeah - just very windy and heavy smoke where we are. Both the Palisades and Altadena look awful. Huge burns in both.

Good to hear you're doing ok. Really hope the winds die down soon.

Celebrities

The tragically sad thing is 'famous people in trouble' will probably have more of an impact on peoples views of climate change / wildfires than anything else.

Really needs to be happening in Florida to get a bit closer to influencing policy.

Just catching up on this, very saddening.

No, that's the right amount

Trump continually talking about annexing Greenland is just bizarre. As things stand, it seems unlikely he could actually do it (but the U.S. constitution is actually vague about what kind of aggressive actions a president can initiate, and there's the annexation of the Philippines and the invasion of Haiti as precedents), but how would the rest of the world react if he did manage it?

It's easy to dismiss it as one of those things he just makes noise about to make noise, but his second term isn't going to be like his first.

I wonder if he starts the move by nuking Copenhagen?

Wouldn't be the first time an Anglo-Saxon imperialist power has bombarded that city despite not being at war with Denmark. The last time it was (checks notes) us

It’s hard to say with Tr*mp, but it’s probably telling that all this ‘Let’s invade Greenland, Canada and Panama!’ chat has bubbled up just when MAGA was descending into public in-fighting.

It's just classic Trump bollocks, say anything you want while the real nasty stuff gets done out of sight in the background.

Its also timed while he asks the supreme court to cancel his hush money sentencing?

What if they are third homeless?

We say good bye to the spunk bar?

Eating cats and dogs, er Kamila will ban cows not enough?

Didn't the whole MAGA crowd venerate Trump during his first term and after because he didn't get involved in wars? Fine if they start their own though?

Apart Israel, moving the us embassy.
