Living on Kaurna Land, experiencing a sudden realization (perhaps belatedly) that now is the time for good people to stand up and do something positive to protect the human race from ourselves.
El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250

If you aren't angry then you aren't paying attention.
Just sayin… Ms Hanson.. you can stick your ‘monoculture’ where the sun don’t shine. Not one of the dedicated, fabulous team that has looked after me in hospital would be ‘acceptable’ by your so called monocultural standard and I’m so grateful I had them all looking after me! #Auspol

New in PN: Moderate Democrats have a choice to make "They can spend the next three months reinforcing Republican messaging about their party & making it less likely Dems take power. Or they can put the 'battle for the soul of the party' off for a while and do what they can to help their party win."
Moderate Democrats have a choice to make
Do they want to help their party win, or do they want to whine about the left?

"A president without a moral compass and advisers whose true north is the extreme right, helming a government with unparalleled legal, technological and financial resources, can implement...political repression that Joe McCarthy...could not have dreamt of," writes @judith-levine.bsky.social.

A Jewish Australian artist complained at the RC she was "cancelled" by an artists' group. In her testimony the reason is revealed: she referred to Palestinians as "animals"! How do we achieve "social cohesion" when someone refers to other people as "animals" then claims they're the victim? #auspol
#Spain combination of high solar irradiance, large available land, and aggressive #renewable auction programs has made it one of Europe's fastest-growing solar markets. #Solar regularly sets the marginal price in Spain's electricity market — meaning that when the sun shines, prices fall toward zero.
My entire life I’ve never called it the FIFA World Cup. I’ve always called it the World Cup. Fans don’t give a shit about FIFA. If national teams showed up for a World Cup tournament not held by FIFA we would all watch it. World Cup is the brand. FIFA is nothing.
I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.
Many are woefully ignorant of our history… We Promised! We Have Not Honored Our Promise!

WAR CRIMINAL 1: “So I heard you have been busy killing kids.” WAR CRIMINAL 2: “Yes, but you are quite the competition! 168 at just one school.” WAR CRIMINAL 1: “ I was told only about 120 were kids.” WAR CRIMINAL 2: “Still pretty impressive.” WAR CRIMINAL 1: “High praise coming from you.”
Couldn’t agree more. Dr. Fauci is an American hero.
I’m sorry but I’m seeing a lot of Islamophobia and I don’t think it’s okay.
