Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I just want to message a picture of my empty bank account to all the bots so they know they're wasting their time on me. And on most writers, to be honest 000
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I'm just fascinated why authors particularly are being targeted in this way. People who write books are not, on the whole, wealthy people. Is it really worth it? 150
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Pretty sure it's all basic flag-waving nationalism. People are afraid of global changes they can't control and they want leaders they feel are in their corner 030

Reposted by Chris FitchJames Murray @james-bg.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Everything still points to warming of well over 2C and all the horrible things that come with it, but emissions peaking and then falling would demonstrate decarbonisation and sustainable development is possible. It would throw the world a lifeline. 0386
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I wish there was a clearer line between science fiction (fiction about science) and sci-fi (essentially fantasy in space). I adore the former and will occasionally dip a toe into the latter, but they are dramatically different genres 012

Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 06/09/2026While mums probably are the ones with the mental load most of the time, sometimes it's dads. Yet these articles never include one. Would be nice for once to emphasis that this is an issue of responsibility distribution, not a simple battle of the sexes www.bbc.com/news/article...bbc.comWhy more women carry the 'mental load' - and how couples can share itPlanning, organising and remembering household tasks falls disproportionately to mothers - here are some tips to help. 120
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 31/08/2026It's the proportions that are wrong. Autumn, winter and spring should be a fortnight each, with the rest of the year one long delicious summer 010

Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 25/08/2026It's exactly what happened in the books. One minute, Bond's dead. Next book, he's alive again. Unfortunately afterwards someone invented the concept of canon and all storytelling was ruined forever 010
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 14/08/2026I struggle with this idea that it's only heatwaves we need to worry about in the climate crisis. There will also be excessive rainfall, flooding, periods of extreme cold... it's not like winter will be some safe haven 000
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Sadiq please build more dense Miyawaki forests. No more of these lonely single trees that require loads of maintenance 000
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Spring being almost as bad as winter, that's not much reassurance 000

Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Is there a reason that the 2026 eclipse is on almost exactly the same day of the year as the 1999 eclipse? Is it just a massive coincidence? Feels like something someone should explain if not 000
Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Personally I think it's cute that there are fans of a fictional character who have built them a shrine in the real world and want to protect it. Not everything has to be an outrage 000

There are many ways to dramatically reduce *demand* for cooling, both at the urban-design level (tree canopies, etc.) & at the building-design level (shades, reflective roofs, etc.). 1120416

Chris Fitch @chrisfitchchris.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Growing up in the South Pacific, the school day stopped at 1pm, most work too, so you could relax and avoid the afternoon heat. The structure of the working day can be completely different, if only the powers that be will allow it 000
