At least when Trump drags me off to the camps, I’ll be able to look myself in the mirror knowing that I always gave him the benefit of the doubt as a fair- minded journalist

Imagine saying that a bishop should apologize for a sermon speaking to the importance of having humanity for our most vulnerable.
Watch Bishop Mariann Budde speak to the importance of unity and respecting the honor and dignity of every human being. We need more of this.

Corporations give money to Trump because they, like him, only care about themselves.

I am still processing this giant wind farm in Oklahoma being canceled within a day of my story publishing.

In the middle of the LA fires.

Without a press release or wider news coverage.

How many renewables projects will stall out in the coming months without the public knowing?

I feel bad for the people of Greenland. They don't deserve our American disease of Trump.

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps.

That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it

If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me

Implicit in a lot of anti-vaccination and anti-public health narratives like those of RFK Jr is a deep disgust/fear of disability; but also an unspoken hope that unchecked disease will "cull" the population of "weaker/less fit" people.
I really just can't see past a lot of that.

That is a serious win for Ito against a perennial Week 1 powerhouse.
Y'all...

Aoi Ito is gonna be a PROBLEM

Sure, people are gonna have jokes about her incredibly unorthodox playing style

And, lemme tell you, it IS unorthodox

But, honestly? That's their problem because Ito is racking up wins and racing up the rankings

Ito defeats Aliaksandra Sasnovich, 6-1, 6-2

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer.

It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health.

Warning signs are everywhere.
