they should be shown this photo on tv and after their denials and dismissals shown a photo of him heiling the second time and asked to explain that one too
I'm deadly serious about this: every Republican should be shown this photo on TV and asked if they repudiate/reject/renounce Musk. And if not, why not.
Today's essential read for all humans: "The headlines this summer make it easy to feel as if nothing can be done: record heat and wildfires continue, while fossil fuel companies rake in billions. But feeling powerless is exactly the trap."
A Stirring Call to Apathy
The science of climate change is dire. Same as it’s ever been, just more so. When the going gets tough, understanding what to do next becomes even more important.

This is shameful discriminatory and misogynistic reporting. People aren’t choosing disability to be “cool”. Young women don’t have to “prove” to you that they’re sick. Disability rates are skyrocketing because we’ve left a disabling virus rip through the population for over 6 years.
dumpster beef! "TRUMP IS GIVING YOU DUMPSTER BEEF THAT OTHER COUNTRIES THREW OUT" that's gotta be the message, man
www.forbes.com/sites/maryro... The EU rejected this beef due to safety standards, but it’s being imported to the U.S. duty-free anyway. Why are we lowering standards on what we eat? If it isn't safe enough for the EU, it shouldn't be on our plates!
The young women assaulted by Reform sycophants while Nigel Farage cheered the attackers on stage.
Pro-Russia/Pro-Israel right-wing Reform sycophants in the UK assault multiple young women for speaking out against Donald Trump and the Tate brother's friend, the corrupt Nigel Farage. Farage laughed and joked about the assaults.
There is a pandemic happening in the school districts but it’s not that they’re secretly transitioning your kids. It’s Covid. It’s not gone. It’s not mild. Kids aren’t immune. Long Covid recently surpassed asthma to become the most common childhood illness. Clean air in schools now.
Attorney General Todd Blanche was on Fox News last night railing against "Secret School Gender Transitions," which Blanche described as a "pandemic that's happening in some school districts around the country"

Again, the president has a chance to lead by example here and have these centers constructed next to his shitty golf courses and his tacky senior center in Palm Beach
This is what living next door to a 30 megawatt data center sounds like.
Sir Nicholas Winton was a British humanist who organised the rescue of more than 650 children, most of them Jewish, from Czechoslovakia, on the Kindertransport. In 1988, Winton featured on the BBC's 'That's Life!' programme, hosted by Esther Rantzen, unknowingly surrounded by the people he saved. 🧵
WOW! JD VANCE: “We’re about to celebrate the 25th year” of 9/11. Sir, the word is COMMEMORATE. Nobody’s celebrating 9/11.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com
Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint
If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset the UK or Australia’s entire carbon footprint.

Barron Trump's net worth increased by $150,000,000 in just one year. Trump was asked how this happened. He replied, "It's none of your business." Remember when the GOP tried to impeach Joe Biden because his son Hunter sold some paintings for $50,000? Republican's reaction to Barron's income: NONE!
