Leaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.

I have to say that looks far more like Terrorism than anything the Palestine Action supporters being arrested in recent weeks have done. They are literally trying to intimidate worth terror members of the public!

Even more argument for hunting down these scum and jailing them for life. Be racist, spreading hate? Instant jail term. We should crack down hard on the far right.

We can blame the oil producers. We should. But we are the ones who buy and use oil. We are all guilty. So, it is up to each and every one of us to demand that our politicians legislate an end to fossil fuel use and direct ALL investment towards renewables. It is our most important duty.

I see people talking about cutting down forests to pre-emptively protect their homes. It's infuriating.

"It’s as if we launched a war against nature, and that has turned place after place into something that resembles a war zone," writes @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social. "The climate movement is a peace movement, a movement to end this war and its casualties."

Course you would, “love”… And Brexit will suddenly be amazing. And climate change will go away. And Trump will give us the bestest trade deal ever. And voters will love you for scrapping their rights, to please your moneyed mates… Now, pipe down and focus on your upcoming fight with a bin.

Any gardener can tell you instantly just how flammable coniferous foliage is. If you have difficulty starting a bonfire in winter, just through some pine or conifer on it.

The wildfire outside Bordeaux showed the risks of highly flammable pine plantations - the native tree growth was much more fire resistant

All the people in the UK who say solar farms will kill traditional agriculture need to look at this and other examples of how the two can exist together and STFU. No, it wouldn't work for wheat but every vegetable crop is a potential beneficiary.

I think men can be more emotionally open with each other, but not in the same way as women. At the risk of generalising, with women, being emotionally open seems to mean a sort of loving or nurturing kind of approach, whereas with men it's more about 'comradeship' or "Hey buddy" 'brotherliness'.

Some critics say that men would benefit from being more emotionally open with one other—but Tyler Austin Harper argues that the real crisis of male friendship is rooted in a different problem:
