Nebraska is not OK, folks. I’ve never seen the Platte River completely dry. No clue how all the migratory birds and semiaquatic mammals will cope this year. It would be nice to go at least one year without some historic (*insert climate disaster here*) ruining everything.

A British newspaper has started a live stream on YouTube of Liz Truss’s photo next to a lettuce to see which one lasts longer. I do love this country’s sense of humo(u)r.
