The crucial issue is where, that is not a managed grouse moor, has there been an example, where culling Foxes and Crows, alone, resulted in a clear difference to Curlew breeding success?

I mean, it has been tried, so where has it worked?

1/5🧵

I explain and demonstrate in this thread, why the grouse moor management model, can't be copied on other Curlew breeding areas.

Yet advocates for culling predators fail to support their belief that Fox and Crow culling will work elsewhere.

2/5threadreaderapp.com/thread/2043253…

The RSPB @Natures_Voice tried it, and found it didn't make any significant difference to Curlew breeding success.

But @TonyJuniper somehow implies it's not been tried yet, because it's a difficult subject. He's got very selective perception/memory.

Your Android phone is sending data to Google every 4.5 minutes.

Even when you're not touching it. Even when the screen is off.

A peer-reviewed study from Trinity College Dublin confirmed it.

12 settings to change right now:

1/ Turn Off WiFi Scanning (it tracks you even when WiFi is OFF)

You turn off WiFi. You think WiFi is off.

It's not. Android keeps scanning for WiFi networks in the background to track your location.

This is confirmed in Google's own developer documentation.

→ Settings → Location → Location Services → Wi-Fi Scanning → Turn OFF

Samsung: Settings → Location → Location Services → Improve Accuracy → Wi-Fi Scanning → Turn OFF

2/ Turn Off Bluetooth Scanning (same problem)

Even when you toggle Bluetooth OFF, Android keeps scanning for Bluetooth beacons to track your location.

Samsung's own settings page says it literally:

"Connect to nearby devices even while Bluetooth is turned off."

→ Settings → Location → Location Services → Bluetooth Scanning → Turn OFF

Entre le nom de mon arrière-grand-mère, Cherqui ( Stora par sa mère), et celui d'Alice Cherki, il n’y a qu’une lettre de différence (administration 🇫🇷 ?). Comment, au sein d’un héritage judéo-algérien, s’est forgée sa conscience radicalement antisioniste et anticoloniale ?

Alice Cherki a été l'élève et la collaboratrice de Fanon à l'hôpital de Blida-Joinville. Elle écrit une biographie de Frantz Fanon : "Portrait", où elle analyse comment la colonisation crée une pathologie mentale chez le colonisé (et le colonisateur).

A. Cherki refuse d'être enfermée dans une seule idéntité. Elle se définit comme Juive, Algérienne, intellectuelle universelle. Son antisionisme n'est pas seulement politique, il est philosophique.

In 1961, an MIT math professor walked into a Vegas casino with a shoebox-sized computer hidden in his suit.

He'd just proven blackjack was beatable.

The casinos changed the rules of the game because of him.

Then he got bored and turned to Wall Street.

His hedge fund returned 20% annually for 29 years straight. Zero losing years. Not one.

He taught Warren Buffett about options pricing before Black-Scholes existed.

His name was Ed Thorp. He's 92 and still trading.

I turned his methodology into 10 prompts.

Here are all 10:

1. The Edge Identifier

"Analyze [market/asset/situation] and identify any statistical edge where the expected value is positive. Show me the math. If there's no edge, tell me to walk away. Do not invent one."

Thorp's #1 rule: no edge, no bet. Most people skip this step and call it "investing."

2. The Kelly Sizer

"Given an edge of [X%] and odds of [Y], calculate the optimal position size using the Kelly Criterion. Then cut it in half. Explain why half-Kelly survives drawdowns better than full Kelly."

Thorp didn't just find edges. He sized them so a bad streak couldn't kill him.

Trump’s former campaign manager is a registered foreign agent on Israel’s payroll — and his day job is Chief Strategy Officer at Salem Media, the conservative network that runs Townhall, RedState, Charlie Kirk, Dinesh D’Souza, and Lara Trump’s podcast. Don Jr. and Lara Trump are ownership stakeholders.

This is in the public DOJ filings.

🧵

Salem’s CSO Brad Parscale registered his firm Clock Tower X under FARA in September 2025. The contract — paid by Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs — explicitly requires “integration of narrative messaging into Salem Media Network properties.”

Townhall. RedState. Charlie Kirk. Dinesh D’Souza. Lara Trump’s podcast. All Salem properties. All named in the contract.

The contract started at $6M. It expanded to $9M by December.

Don Jr. and Lara Trump took ownership stakes in Salem in April 2025.

Six months later, Salem’s own chief strategist was on Israel’s payroll, contracted to embed Israeli government messaging across the same platforms they own a piece of.

The Quincy Institute and Public Citizen have a formal DOJ complaint sitting on this right now.

💥 Three Palestine Action wannabes have just smashed up another defence firm called Keysight in Hampshire but got arrested very quickly. Good to see them caught. Watch them moan and complain like the cry-bullies they are.

These thugs went in with crow bars and destroyed everything. They are attacking OUR defence infrastructure. There’s a 50/50 chance they’ll be let off in the courts. Grim.

The “People Against Genocide” group has targeted Keysight before and have committed multiple attacks since last year. They’re Palestine Action in all but name and should be banned too. @ShabanaMahmood

Green blob-funded lobbying organisation, Ember has produced a widely circulated report. It says that thanks to wind and solar, Britain saved around £7 million per day through March because we didn't need to burn gas.

This is a thread about why that claim is totally false.

Ember's misinformation starts as very good quality information. Ember reports gas market price data, and how this turns into a higher price for electricity from gas. It also correctly shows the effect of the Carbon Price - a policy cost, effectively tax - applied to the price.

But then it starts to get fuzzy. The report shows how rapidly green energy has been deployed over the last decade and a half.

Hoy hace 471 años que fallecía en Tordesillas la reina Juana I, la primera monarca que heredó la corona de todos los reinos de España. Supuestamente una enfermedad no la dejó gobernar. También es posible que se exagerasen los síntomas de un algún tipo de trastorno mental (Sigue)

En el año 1500 se convirtió en heredera de los reinos de Castilla y Aragón. Habían fallecido todos sus hermanos mayores y un sobrino. Juana estaba casada con Felipe de Habsburgo y Borgoña, más conocido como el "Hermoso".

Al fallecer el infante Miguel, Juana se encontraba en Flandes junto a su esposo Felipe. Su madre la reina Isabel la Católica requirió la presencia de Juana en Castilla para que las Cortes de Castilla reconocieran a su hija como heredera.

皆さんの大嫌いなジャパニーズ・ノットウィード（虎杖）ですが、こちらではこれを食べます。ピクルスやピラフにする事が一般的です。とても美味しいです。

駆除するついでに食べてみてください。コメントにレシピを書きます

ジャパニーズ・ノットウィード（虎杖）は太く、ちょうどアスパラガスのように枝が伸びていないものを選んでください。手で折り取れるものが最高です。いい音がします

皮をむいて使います。ナイフかピーラーで簡単に剥けます。そのままでもストロベリーのような風味がしますが、少しだけ茹でるべきです

ジャパニーズ・ノットウィード（虎杖）はそのままだと酸味が強く、シュウ酸を含むのです。ホウレンソウのように。

茹でる前に半分に割っておいてください。
お湯を沸騰させ、少しだけ塩を入れ、30秒だけ茹でます
とりあげたら、冷水でさまします。冷めたら5-10分つけおきます

Kdy jindy, než v den 🇭🇺 voleb je fajn si rozebrat další jednostranný postoj pro-cenzurní @SOS_projevu na téma "EU ovlivňuje volby"?

@SOS_projevu tradičně rámcuje DSA jako cenzurní nástroj. A tradičně nemá s fakty nic společné. Tradičně se jedná o názorový rámec. Na pomoc si opět vzali stanovisko rep. výboru Sněmovny reprezentantů. Nemám nic proti konzervatismu, ale proč musí být vždy manipulativní?

I had a heart attack at 52.

7 things could have prevented it.

My doctor didn't test a single one.

Not because he's a bad doctor. Because the system that trained him was designed to sell drugs, not save lives.

25 hours of nutrition in 4 years of medical school.
70% of his education funded by pharma.
A $600 billion industry that needs you sick to survive.

Here's what they missed in my checkup.
And what they're missing in yours right now.

WHAT THEY TESTED:

Total cholesterol.
LDL cholesterol.

That's it.

That was the entire basis for putting me on medication for the rest of my life.

Two numbers. One drug. No conversation.

Here's what they DIDN'T test.
And every single one of these is more predictive of heart disease than LDL cholesterol.

MISSED #1: The real risk factors.

The Women's Health Study followed 27,939 women for 20 years.
Published in JAMA Cardiology 2016.

LDL cholesterol: 1.4x risk factor.

Now look at the others:
→ Diabetes: 10.71x
→ Metabolic syndrome: 6.09x
→ Hypertension: 4.58x
→ Smoking: 3.93x
→ BMI: 2.01x

They gave me a drug for the 1.4x factor.
They never tested me for the 10.71x factor.
Not once.

(Mora S, et al. JAMA Cardiology, 2016)

Es ist eine Vergewaltigung, wenn ein Mann beim Sex anfängt, eine Frau zu würgen, sie sich körperlich wehrt, an seinen Armen rüttelt, und er trotzdem weitermacht. Nach § 177 StGB ist entscheidend, dass eine sexuelle Handlung gegen den erkennbaren Willen erfolgt und ihre geschilderte körperliche Abwehr ist ein eindeutiges Signal.

https://x.com/Frollein_VogelV/status/2043241948127821987

Es gibt keine sichere Art, jemanden zu würgen. Das ist kein „Kink“, sondern ein medizinischer Fakt: Schon geringer Druck auf den Hals kann Bewusstlosigkeit, Hirnschäden oder den Tod verursachen.

Trotzdem wird genau das seit Jahren verharmlost. Unter Begriffen wie „Breathplay“ wird eine Praxis umetikettiert, die objektiv gefährlich ist. In vielen Mainstream-Pornos ist die Hand am Hals der Frau inzwischen ein Standardbild geworden

Es gibt Fälle, in denen Frauen gestorben sind und Täter sich darauf berufen haben, es sei „einvernehmlicher harter Sex“ gewesen. Als Reaktion darauf wurden Gesetze verschärft, etwa in Großbritannien, wo diese sogenannte „rough sex defense“ eingeschränkt wurde

At the very best @TonyJuniper is ecologically naive, and is being manipulated by grouse shooting interests, into believing that the breeding success of Curlews on grouse moors, can be replicated elsewhere, with predator control.
1/🧵

https://twitter.com/TonyJuniper/status/2040700088918388895

I have provided a comprehensive explanation as to why it is false and naive to believe that the breeding successes of Curlews and other ground nesting waders, on managed grouse moors, can be replicated elsewhere, for a number of factors.

2/

https://x.com/SteB777/status/2043234668451901476

Part of the reason, this can't be replicated, as I explain, is because upland grouse moors naturally support far lower numbers of Crows and Foxes, as sheep are generally excluded from them, and there would be very little to support, their populations all year round.

Net zero advocates love to claim renewables are cheaper than gas by waving around Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE) models from Lazard, IRENA, and the UK Government’s Generation Cost 2025 report. But these models are junk. Here’s why. (1/19)

LCOE sums up all capital and operating costs over a plant’s lifetime, discounts them, and divides by total electricity generated. Result: £/MWh or p/kWh in a chart like Lazard's below. Sounds scientific… until you look closer. (2/19)

Classic LCOE compared dispatchable sources (gas, coal, nuclear, hydro) that match demand. Now it’s used for wind & solar, whose output depends on weather, not demand. A midday solar kWh when supply>demand is worthless. Peak-hour gas power is priceless. LCOE ignores this. (3/19)

Je moet toch geen expert in discoursanalyse zijn om te zien wat er met deze titel fout is.

Geen leider, geen hiërarchie, maar wel een pak juridische overwinningen: activistisch advocatencollectief maakt minister Van Bossuyt (N-VA) het leven zuur nieuwsblad.be/politiek/geen-…

1. Advocaten behartigen de belangen van hun cliënten, in de mate dat ze de zaak rechtvaardig achten.

Zo is elke advocaat een activist. Iemand die zich inzet voor zijn cliënt.

Voor sommige advocaten zijn die cliënten asielzoekers, voor anderen mensen verdacht van drugsfeiten,

nog anderen werken voor bedrijven, mediabedrijven, vakbonden of werkgeversorganisaties, milieuverenigingen.

So what? De advocaat verdedigt een zaak. Dat is zijn of haar job.

Neil Trennan is an extremely violent rapist who was serving two life sentences.

Yet he was let out on unsupervised day release when he absconded and attacked a young student.

There are serious questions for David Lammy - yet his department has responded dishonestly. 🧵

Trennan is behind bars again.

But so serious was this case that the Judge said he would send his sentencing remarks to David Lammy.

Lammy’s spokesman claims: “We have not yet received the judge’s sentencing remarks.”

But they are published here: judiciary.uk/judgments/r-v-…

We need to know:

What steps Lammy has taken to investigate the decision to transfer Mr Trennan to open conditions?

Who authorised the decision to transfer him to an open prison and let him out unsupervised - and on what basis?
