As you fight ICE in your neighborhoods, always look for potentially positive outcomes to counterbalance your anger and despair. For me this continues to be meeting more neighbors, talking to more neighbors, and finding that others close by have also been fighting in ways I was unaware of.

NEW: AquaBounty GMO salmon was going to be the future of fish — and the future for one Ohio village that offered incentives to make a new facility happen.

But years after breaking ground, there are no fancy fish tanks. No designer fish. No new jobs.

Excellent long form piece in Slate about fisheries management of forage fish like menhaden, bunker, anchovies, and sardines. Multiple examples given dramatic ecosystem effects. Article also discusses the difficulty of conserving low profile species.
They’re Tiny. They’re More Important to the Ocean Than Anyone Realized. They Need Our Help.
When little fish thrive, the results can be spectacular.

I think this On the Media episode about how little information Israeli's are getting on gaza and how the media reinforces propaganda is useful to listen to BUT there's a tenor to the interview that frames it as "in contrast to US coverage" that is wrong
