I think this is the attitude towards hard work that many of my generation and younger have. Mission, good people and upside (financial you can negotiate but you have to be changing things for the better) are crucial for commitment. This is where Twitter 2.0 fails.
Oikein. Hienosti toimittu.
Sunnuntaina alkavat jalkapallon MM-kisat. HS:n toimittajia tai kuvaajia ei mene Qatariin, kertoo tässä @ekylmanen: hs.fi/urheilu/art-2000009201…
Päivän painetun lehden kansista voi myös lukea, miksi ei.

Tukholmaan esitetään fossiilimainoskieltoa! Jatkossa esim. öljy🛢- ja lentoyhtiöt🛩 eivät siis voisi mahdollisesti enää mainostaa Tukholman kaduilla.
Tässä ketjussa, miksi kielto todella tarvitaan myös Suomen kaupunkeihin. 🧵

I have so many questions. How will this scale? How will it taste? But still a very thought-provoking two minutes from @GeorgeMonbiot, and I say that as someone quite wary of tech-solutions. Animal agriculture is ~15% of the climate crisis and needs to end.

12 years ago, Twitter’s office used a Mac Mini to tunnel into the servers. One day, an IT guy found it in the closet.
“Anyone know who owns this?”
“Unplug it. Someone will show up.”
Everyone lost access to servers. Huge crisis. It became known as the “Load Bearing Mac Mini.”

Europe is insanely warm right now. It has never been this warm so late in the year for some.
Can't believe it is only 43 days until Christmas.

If there was a way for them to redeem Ash not using his past Pokemon, this was it. The most beautiful scene in Pokemon anime history I've ever seen.
This is #Anipoke Heritage right here!

I have just warned global leaders at #COP27:
We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.
Our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible.
We need urgent #ClimateAction.
THIS: “Climate models have projected very smooth changes, whereas the real world is suffering rapid regional changes. The rise in globally averaged temperature is a useful metric of how far climate change has got, but it doesn’t bring home the message.” theguardian.com/environment/…

you know what? I've been pretty hard on Elon, but this website actually shows he's done a lot of good: eIonmusk.org

Most people I know in the media view this as hysteria. They simply will not face just how serious it is - which means it’s not reported with the adequate conviction or urgency, as if to do so would be a sign of weakness. The media is failing so spectacularly. #ClimateCrisis

If you have a trip or a fall in public, pretend you meant to do to avoid any embarrassment.

For 40 years, nuclear power was expanding exponentially, ushering in a new era of clean & reliable power.
Then in 1989, it hit a wall.
What really happened? … 🧶 …

The rumours are true. Netflix is thrilled that so many of you have been watching Sandman, and the thing we were all hoping would happen... has indeed happened...
