Three balloons (& because Bristol, I have to stress, not hot air balloons) have blown into my garden today. No idea where they're coming from, but thanks for the plastic pollution. 😒

They absolutely 100% do not care where the money is coming from. If they cared about the morality of their money they wouldn't exist as a political party.

As someone who does his best to avoid the US political omnishambles I wasn't aware of any Epstein allegations surrounding Melania... so she's Barbara Steisand-ed that well into the spotlight.

Also…

“some of the people and projects that benefited from Delo’s largesse had expressed hardline positions on immigration, nationalism and abortion”

So, where “champion of free speech” = someone who wants to be able to be a racist, nationalist misogynist.. but out loud.

God damn these people.

The issue with any highly militarised nation (like the US) where a large proportion of your GDP is splurged on military spending is that you can't then let that manpower & hardware sit around idle, otherwise it's 'wasting' money. So there's always a temptation to launch into a stupid war.

Artemis II just set a new record: the furthest any human has ever been from Earth.

But how far is that? I made a to-scale diagram of the Earth–Moon system to try to make sense of it. 🧵
