It's 2000, & diver Rod Macdonald has discovered something terrifying: "Dave and I couldn’t resist the temptation to fin over to the edge of the pinnacle & look over the side...into the 200m deep abyss. [Then] I became aware my exhaled bubbles had stopped rising upwards." 1/

The @chiefrabbi of UK, Sir Ephraim Mirvis, writing in The Sunday Times: “There are moments in history when the veil is pulled back - when we glimpse not just a lapse in judgement, but a rupture in the moral fabric of our society. Glastonbury 2025 was such a moment.”

Feeling scared? Like immigrants are invading your land, taking your jobs, committing heinous crimes, and living a life of luxury on your taxes? I get that. You've seen the headlines, the shares, the "truth-tellers" on your feed. Strange, though, isn't it? 🧵

It's 36 years ago today since the tragic events at Hillsborough. If you listen to one thing today listen to this. Commentator Peter Jones with his final report on BBC Sport On 2. Simple, but very powerful words No one should go to a football match and not come home! RIP The 97

As one of many @elonmusk bot accounts would say "Interesting,🎯"
Hey @elonmusk - just yesterday, @grok said that YOU are one of (the six) most dangerous people on earth, along with your buddies Vladimir Putin; Rupert Murdoch; Donald Trump; Yuval Noah Harari; and AQ Khan. Today, Grok tells me Putin & Xi Jinping are. Interesting.
