Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Agreed And yet... This is a donor-funded institute making the donor-shaped case. Practical agreements, economic boost, youth mobility as an EU "request." Europe is much more than a trade deal, it was never meant to be a better economic arrangement: its bedrock is liberty, equality, brotherhood. 000

Then you can't complain if your adversaries are better at cheating than you... 020

Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 30/08/2026The Colorado drying up Blue Mesa: weeks from minimum power pool. Flaming Gorge: lowest in five years. Powell: ~28 ft above losing hydropower, falling 4 ft/month. Glen Canyon had never never gone offline. On current numbers it does in February 2027, leaving millions in the dark 000
Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Yesterday, global sea surface temperature broke the record for the second time this year, reaching 21.24°C. But other than the occasional spike, sea surface temperature is tracking the last El Niño year with almost mirror precision... Well, except it's ~0.1°C higher. 000
Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Mayors overruling councils isn't devolution, it's clearing the last obstacle to building at market rate. And more market-rate supply won't touch affordability. What it will touch is the balance sheet of firms like Hallam Land Management... 🤷 020
Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Our press is a mouthpiece for liars and adulators... Pretending not to see it just shows your dishonesty, Andrew (Befitting... seeing your life career...) 000

Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 17/08/2026If only that was what the said journalists did... It was never about attacking freedom of speech, it was about how that freedom of speech was abused to construct a hate filled distorted narrative of ideological identity politics 8763

Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Banning donations doesn't remove the demand for influence, it may exacerbate the problem: it simply removes the legal channel The best route isn't top-down restrictions but the rules of the game: ensuring transparency, media independence, and that citizens are informed on who they're voting for 110

Lorenzo Trojan @ltrojan.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Nothing wrong with calling the media broken. But the answer isn't politicians refusing to answer questions.
