Wanted to share something fun for Friday. It's a website I return to often: Future Timeline.

It compiles news reports about future technologies, events etc. and places them on a timeline by year, so you see what to expect going forward. Remarkable stuff.

'Boris Johnson has been spotted enjoying a family outing days after ending his dramatic comeback bid. The former PM visited Howletts Wild Animal Park in Canterbury with his family yesterday.'

Silly me, thinking he was still a sitting MP... 🤔 express.co.uk/news/politics/…

Jacob Rees-Mogg's unhappy, so it must be good news...

Sunak u-turn.🚨

That didn't take long...

You can imagine Rishi Sunak stepping into a shadowy corner after this encounter, and demanding wet wipes of an aide so that he can rid himself of the taint of ordinary people. He's more wooden than a forest.

It's hard to believe just how bad Therese Coffey is as the Environment Secretary.

But then, she would be out of her depth in a saucer of brackish water.

'The first data transmission to exceed 1 petabit per second (Pbit/s) using only a single laser and a single optical chip has been demonstrated by European researchers.'

That would be enough to carry twice the internet's total traffic over ONE connection!

Isn't it refreshing that what he says carries no weight any more, because he's nowhere near the levers of power?

'Gigantic, 70-Foot Nuclear Fusion Gun Could Change the World'

Fascinating article about a British fusion prototype.

The next gun iteration is supposed to fire projectiles at a billion G and 20 miles/second.

Wonder if the military will come knocking? 🤔 flip.it/gDrjZu

More evidence of the Tory government's complete lack of interest in environmental matters...

According to Therese Coffey, Liz Truss is now 'enjoying a well-deserved break'.

Because nothing says you've earned a bit of me-time like crashing the UK economy and becoming a byword for abject failure...

Ho-hum.
