I was very happy to be the subject of an edition of this lovely @BBCRadio4 series, Seven Ages of Man, talking about getting older, self-acceptance and masculinity.
Chuffed to be included alongside Colm Tóibín, Michael Palin, David Baddiel and others.

We need to talk about how the @DailyMail constantly pushes back on climate change action which scientists say without which we do not have a safe long-term future.
They must also know that lawyers are looking into the prosecution of organisations misleading the public and pushing back against action. These editors, broadcasters and journalists will end up facing criminal prosecution which will be back by tens of millions of people.
Listen to David Attenborough. Watch his documentary breaking boundaries. youtu.be/2Jq23mSDh9U?is=LjTN…
Scientists below in thread.
The future is not what people think it is.
Watch as the Daily Mail etc blames net zero for power cuts caused by storms which are increasing because of global warming.
New storm warnings for 108 areas as millions of Brits face power cuts - list mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/we…

Up here in the English Peak District it is pretty wet, hence the reservoirs
But this is what Ladybower looks like now - nearly two-thirds of the way through Autumn
This bodes very badly for summer 2027
Standpipes in the street would be no surprise

⛈️ قوة عاصفة البرد التي ضربت مدينة فينيكس بولاية أريزونا الأمريكية! 🇺🇸
حبات البرد تتسبب في تحطم الزجاج الأمامي لسيارة كانت بداخلها فتاتان أثناء العاصفة، ولحسن الحظ لم تُسجّل أي إصابات❄️⚠️

A reminder that MPs and other politicians do not understand the seriousness of climate change any more than the public do.
Several years ago, when the chief scientist had a briefing for all MPs in Parliament, only 10% of them turned up.
The blind are leading the blind. #jackdaw
One of the worlds leading scientists: @andyburnham’s decision re Jackdaw is incompatible with the UKs climate commitments:
Remember this next summer as the country burns again.

I discussed the new U.N. report on breaching the 1.5C dangerous global warming limit (and the unhelpful green-lighting of new North Sea gas drilling project by U.K. Prime Minster Andy Burnham) earlier this evening with @BBCNews:

Why is it so difficult for the media to explain this to the public when it is being so clearly stated?

the most vicious harassment i and my loved ones have ever received came in the days after Rowling targeted me personally, posting uncensored images of my account to her millions of followers calling me a man in a dress. i had just turned 21, and had less than $100 in my account
J.K. Rowling has published a new essay defending her views on the trans community and calling out trans activism in the 21st century for being "elitist."
"My views haven't changed... what to me represents no change at all in my political or ideological outlook has, in recent years, seen me and women like me subject not only to criticism but also to death threats. This is because we oppose the current, dominant strain of trans activism, which holds that a man who declares himself a woman is, literally, a woman, and is therefore entitled to be treated as a woman in all contexts..."

Jackdaw: a decision for last century. climateuncensored.com/jackda…
A hastily drafted post following the UK Govt’s decision to approve further drilling & production at the Jackdaw gas field in the N.Sea. Please excuse typos, non-sequiturs, etc - I wanted to get the post online today.
