Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Trump is not invincible. He can be defeated. When people show spine and stand up to him, when civil society bands together rather than capitulating, he often backs down. Our real problem is the appeasers.

“Environmental injustice and climate chaos accelerate daily, driven by global neoliberal economics rooted in patriarchy and colonialism. Agribusiness & fossil fuel corporations deepen hunger, destroy biodiversity, displace peoples & poison communities while profiting from the crisis they created.”

Food sovereignty goes well beyond food security. It is a political movement and a living pathway toward transforming the broken food system.

My piece in the Journal this morning.
Opinion: We should aim to be the first generation to experience more nature, not less
Our relationship with nature is broken but fixing it could be the key to happier, healthier lives, writes Dr Ola Løkken Nordrum.

How about we talk about the murder of innocent children industrial complex?

Out of the wake of more than 400 school shootings since Columbine in 1999, a school security industry has emerged that is worth as much as $4 billion, and growing.
