“Confirmation of 2026 as England’s worst cereal harvest on record means that 4 of the 5 worst harvests have now occurred since 2020 following extreme weather.”

The 4 worst UK harvests ever have happened since 2020, leading to the loss of grain equivalent to more than a year's worth of bread supply

Prediction: Bots are going to overrun this app & being on here at all will become unbearable.

Over the last 24 hours, I’ve blocked 100+ bots with few followers & names like BobbyCharles97365932. It seems all the anti-public health bots were reassigned to wealth inequality.
