Notes Today: 

• A Canadian judge has ruled that the “thumbs-up” 👍emoji is just as valid as a signature. 

• On Monday came Earth’s hottest day in at least 125,000 years. Tuesday was hotter.

• Twitter’s latest estimated value crash:  $44B to $44M. Elon Musk, what a genius.

• BBC will not broadcast Attenborough episode over fear of ‘rightwing backlash’. Groveling before the planet wreckers.

 

Problem with these notes: some tend to run up against a deeply rooted feature of human cognition - the desire not to think about anything unpleasant…Sorry about that.
