I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

I booked a photo session tonight bc I have very few pictures of my family together, but while I’m smiling & holding my children, I know I will hear this mother’s screams.

I don’t want my tax dollars supporting ICE agents dragging parents away from car line. And most moms in the US agree with me.

Maybe now some more people will start to see? We can add "mentally mush" to this list now.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Hey physics is physics, and global dimming is real. There are large amounts of particulate matter and aerosols that will diminish in a fossil fuel cessation faster than the excess of CO2 released by a century of fossil fuel emissions.

We can increase productivity of grazing land AND get power from it, with agrovoltaics. Sadly US current admin has no vision for this sort of plan.

Agrivoltaics: Solar and Agriculture Co-Location

Agrivoltaics, or the practice of solar agriculture co-location, is defined as agricultural production underneath or adjacent to solar panels, such as crops, livestock, and pollinators.

We have the square mile equivalent of Delaware and Rhode Island in parking lots across the USA. We could start with those.

My guess is that the Qatari govt. is ponying up big cash for this. Not saying it's a good idea, but that is why.

I remember I thought our family was the shit when we got one of these! Had the antenna on the handset that got about 2 feet long when you pulled it all the way out!

The sad thing is that some ding dongs on the right will just take what he says as the gospel truth without vetting his claims at all.

Hawkeye Pete @petethehawkeye.bsky.social · 2d

It's maddening how ding dongs like RFKjr will spew some pseudo-science sounding utter BULLSHIT and people will just spoon it up as the truth.
