May all beings be happy
All beings without exception
Weak or strong, omitting none
Great or mighty, seen & unseen
Near & far
Born or yet unborn
May all beings be happy
Let no one deceive another
Or despise anyone anywhere
Or in anger wish another harm
May all beings be happy
"We gave you a nation within our borders"????
The so called united states didn't do anything no other civilization has done because in order to do that you have to be civilized in the first place but y'all were too busy bathing and washing your food in the same water you shit in until we taught you how clean water works.

The Endangered Species Act has saved thousands of animals and plants from threats like poaching, habitat loss, and pollution. In total, it has prevented the extinction of 99% of the species it has protected. Now, Trump has weakened or eliminated key provisions of the bedrock environmental law.
Trump’s Attack on the Endangered Species Act Will Hurt More Than Just Wildlife
Proposed rollbacks would open the door to more oil and gas drilling, as well as logging and mining.

Two new Cochrane reviews show strong and consistent evidence that HPV vaccines are effective in preventing cervical cancer and pre-cancerous changes, especially when given to young people before they are exposed to the virus.

Shoutout to Kitimat’s fearless climate champions Lani Gibson and Michelle Martins for showing us around - from old growth cedars to LNG flare stacks. It was such a gift to interview you on community health impacts and the real alternatives to support wellbeing.

Every one of you: post at least once a day about some small thing that makes you happy that has nothing to do with politics. This is a hard and fast rule. I won’t be keeping a spreadsheet or anything but if you don’t do it, I’ll know.
I think, for those of us on the political left, we need to address morale as a real and pressing issue that will fuck up our ability to fight if left unaddressed. We *need* to figure out a way to keep people feeling at least minimally good about things even in shitty situations.

I am sitting here crying and don't quite know why I find the Thomas King story so hurtful. Partly because I looked up to him as a writer and one of the Indigenous voices. How can you build a whole Indigenous-centred career on a rumor that one's father may be Cherokee?

In South Dakota, Indigenous children make up only 13% of the child population, but 74% of children in the foster care system. This is so harmful to families and children.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

Seems like a good time to remind people that a fantastic place to get recipes is your local library! They have shelves and shelves of cookbooks! With real recipes! For free!
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.

Nina Cresswell reported a sexual assault, but the police basically ignored her. She spoke out, and her attacker sued her for defamation. Three years later, with our support, she won.

Now she's taking action to stop the police failing women. Join us.👇

Apparently Canadians can do alternate facts, too. Nothing to see here, folks, just a few forest fires, melting glaciers, droughts, and floods. Move along.

It's woke and gay to be against cancer causing chemicals in your water
Unreal: "The EPA is moving forward with approvals for pesticides containing 'forever chemicals' as an active ingredient... The agency also announced plans to relax a rule requiring companies to report products containing PFAS and has proposed weakening drinking water standards for the chemicals."
