So, I've had this account for nearly 13 years. I haven't changed the way I use it, it's always been connected to my email address and this is my only account on X. I use it to interact with friends, retweet cute animals and keep an eye on local news. Last week I suggested ...

Happy Friday 😊

We made a rest stop on our way today and I got a Jr. Cheeseburger! Best road trip ever.

Mid day snoozling 😴😴

The puppy needs to be removed from the home. It certainly isn’t safe with a psychopath child living there. A 13 year-old that tried to kill a puppy and a family member and the liberal activist judge gave him only 21 days. The kid will do it again and the dog will die and heaven only knows what will happen to a family member. Our judicial system is broken.

Back to being a mud monster today 🤣

Let's check in on Gerald's water consumption. Gerald woke up this morning and did the following: 6am - drank from his trough. Approximately 30 litres. In British beef cattle, this is 100% of Gerald's actual blue water use for the day. 6:15am - it rained on him. This has been counted in the statistics as Gerald consuming water. Gerald did not decide it would rain. Gerald did not apply for the rainfall. Gerald has not been asked whether he endorses the accounting methodology. 8am - Gerald ate grass. The grass required rainfall to grow. This rainfall has also been attributed to Gerald. The rain fell on the field in 1742 as well, when there was no spreadsheet. 10am - Gerald produced manure. The manure will go into the soil. The soil will grow more grass. The grass will need more rain. The rain will fall regardless of Gerald's continued employment on this farm. Gerald's daily blue water use: about 30 litres. The same as a moderately long shower. The headline figure: 15,000 litres per kilogram. The gap between those two numbers is rain. Gerald is not a drought. Gerald is what happens when you point rain at a field and give it a biological purpose. This is, broadly, what farming is.

Yes, time to call out the lunatics leading us into a Net Zero world of insecurity and poverty. Helen Whately is right, we cannot afford Net Zero. It's not even a desirable destination.

Sometimes you just need to find a sunny patch and have a nap! Wasn’t anticipating that I would be disturbed by an impromptu photo shoot though

Activist: "The water usage for beef is obscene. Thousands of litres per kilogram." Farmer: "That's rainfall." Activist: "What?" Farmer: "The figure includes all the rain that falls on the pasture. The cows drink from the stream. The rain falls whether there's a cow here or not." Activist: "It's still water consumption." Farmer: "Should I stop the rain falling on my field?" Activist: "Grow crops instead. More efficient." Farmer: "This is a 35-degree slope in the Welsh hills. Show me the crop." Activist: "Technology..." Farmer: "To make tractors climb mountains?" Activist: "There must be a solution." Farmer: "There is. It's called a cow." Activist: [checks phone]
