This Christmas Eve, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

Russia destroyed 100% of Odesa’s energy infrastructure. All substations were destroyed by missiles and drones.
The city has been completely left without electricity, hot water, and heating for over one million people, including all critical infrastructure.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

So sorry to hear this.
Green Onions; great song.
if I could only listen to one kind of music for the rest of my life, the answer would be Memphis soul. RIP Steve Cropper, whose guitar and production defined the Stax sound as much as Booker T’s organ or Otis Redding’s shout

We SHOULD be so much better.
This is so wrong. We could be so much better.
Found out an old friend and co-worker of mine, an addict, had an aneurism that paralyzed him from the neck down and will kill him in the coming days.
They released him from the hospital bc he had no insurance and he’s dying on someone’s couch.
God bless the USA

Seems like a good day to revisit why I chose this screen name a little over seven years ago. A 🧵
It was about a week after Jamal Khashoggi was murdered, and the first time (that I know of) that Trump was asked about it.
