@Christopher_x I’m really sorry you’re feeling like this right now. That sounds extremely heavy and exhausting to carry around with you. If the suicidal feelings are getting stronger or you feel unsafe, please contact someone immediately — a crisis line, emergency services, or someone close

@nealasher @BenGrahamStocks @ro3041 Over £1.2 billion (over 16 years!) in taxpayer money has been spent on planning, designing, and surveying for the Lower Thames Crossing—a new road crossing planned to relieve pressure on the existing Dartford Crossing—before construction has officially begun.

@BenGrahamStocks @ro3041 Yeah, but in Britain it would cost billions in planning, assessment impacts, diversity quotas and studies of the habitat of the lesser spotted newt before anyone pulled on a high viz jacket and started up an excavator.

If the UK built 10–15 new nuclear power stations:
• Paid off within 17 years
• 60 year lifespan: free energy for 43 years
• Powers 90 million homes
We only have 29 million homes, potential to export energy globally.
This is how Britain becomes a world leader again.

Building 10-15 plants (~3.2 GW each, like Hinkley/Sizewell) gives 32-48 GW total capacity. At 90% capacity factor: 252-378 TWh/year output. UK avg household uses 2,700 kWh electricity/year → equivalent to powering 93-140 million households (UK has ~29M, so covers all residential demand + industry/export). Payback (at ~£110/MWh sales, £20/MWh opex = £90/MWh net): annual net £23-34B. Low end (£380B cost): ~17 years. High end (£750B): ~22 years. Strong returns after, over 60-year plant life.

@truebritgbr @rickygervais A few years ago my wife and I watched Afterlife and we loved it. The mix of comedy, sadness and what seemed like reality was amazing.
My wife sadly passed away in December 2024 after an awful few years of dealing with Motor Neurone disease.
Thank you for the fun!

“After Life had just aired and so many people came up to me and said they'd lost someone, and a good percentage of them said 'my kids got me this dog after my wife died'. And I just thought that's magical. That a dog can save your life.”

@copland11 What a choice for today;
The world is
A bad place
A bad place
A terrible place to live
Oh, but I don't want to die

@MatthewWielicki Implosion will prob happen before burning up. Maybe we’re looking the wrong direction.

This tends to be an argument I hear often.
"The recent 100 years are unprecedented!"
Since global temperature is meaningless and we don't really know it today and definitely not in the recent past, we must look at specific areas. Let's look at Greenland, for example. In this data from six Greenland ice cores, I highlight the 6 times in the recent past that temperatures changed at or above today's rate. Was each of those a climate emergency? Why didn't the ecosystem collapse then? #climate #ClimateStrike #ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis
