May I modestly suggest walking softly into a few shareholder meetings with a very large stick as a possible solution to this level of poverty corruption by the world's most evil entities & individuals?

One of Canada’s most magical places…it is an awe-inspiring paddle.

“Often called the "jewel" of Jasper National Park, Spirit Island is a tiny, uninhabited strip of land with a near-mythical allure.”

The stunning Canadian island you can see but not touch

Hidden deep in the Rockies and only visible by boat, Spirit Island is one of Canada's most iconic places – and a sacred site for those who have sealed it off from the world.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

As the night sky becomes less visible (pollution, ppl head down in phones etc), will it get harder to interest ppl in astronomy, satellites & space science? I was talking to space industry types last night & they feel public apathy. But is that a surprise when ppl can’t/don’t see the sky?

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

who are you telling

i agree, it's conservative & liberal men who try to adhere to patriarchal hegemony and end up suffering
it shouldn't be up to women to embrace men before they fix their culture to each other.
men need to start normalizing
compassion, & listening, and then we can talk about womens role in this.

Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Making the national school food program permanent ($216M in annual funding) flew under the radar of other news this past week, but it, in addition to automatic tax-filing for low-income Canadians, was an excellent & empathetic move by PM Carney. 🇨🇦 must continue w/ positive and proactive initiatives.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

You know what?

When the United States actually takes care of a of the people within its borders, I'll consider being respectful or grateful to this country. But for now, what I see is a country founded on multiple genocides doing its level best to either deny those genocides ever happened,
