Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.

FED UP!@val.sheshed.rocks · 2w ago2/ The son of a b*tch is so callous, he couldn’t even bow his head in reverence towards the four fallen heroes during the Dignified Transfer Ceremony. Republicans in Congress knows 68% of the American people oppose this war but to cowardly to stop him.

150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.
I need to write an ode to antibiotics- two hours after I have popped them, my head clears up.
How did we even do sick before streaming services?
It warms my subcontinental heart to no end that Modi may finally be undone for messing with exam papers! No communal hatred or even political corruption- but Year 12 exam papers! Damn us brown people love our education.
May be the government could keep its last election promise and rebuild Maroondah

![(i) The conduct endangers protected persons or objects. The majority of war crimes involve death, injury, destruction or unlawful taking of property. However, not all acts necessarily have to result in actual damage to persons or objects in order to amount to war crimes. This became evident when the Elements of Crimes for the International Criminal Court were being drafted. It was decided, for example, that it was enough to launch an attack on civilians or civilian objects, even if something unexpectedly prevented the attack from causing death or serious injury. This could be the case of an attack launched against the civilian population or individual civilians, even though, owing to the failure of the weapon system, the intended target was not hit. The same is the case for subjecting a protected person to medical experiments - actual injury is not required for the act to amount to a war crime; it is enough to endanger the life or health of the person through such an act.

Can someone ping me when Hanson is right about something?
It's incredibly rare to come across someone who has the wrong / offensive / very shithouse take on absolutely every issue.
Respectfully, I am unconvinced thar Pauline Hanson is a threat to Australia's democracy. The people who have been silent about everyday racism but are foaming at the mouth about Pauline pose a greater threat.
The Odyssey will make over a billion dollars, at which point MAGA will suddenly claim it’s a conservative movie. Just like they did with Barbie.
I don’t care what anyone says about virology-but I got this awful cold because my feet were cold yesterday.
Second cold in as many weeks.I hate it.
The EU has banned the destruction of unsold clothing by companies in the EU. Currently £140 million of new clothes are sent to landfills every year in the UK instead of being given away. It needs to be banned in the UK too.
If you've worked with me in recent weeks as a freelancer, I've probably shared this news with you, though it's time to share it more broadly: @prismreports.org is in serious trouble, y'all. We have lost half a million dollars in philanthropic support & we have almost no secure funding for next year.
More Americans now support Palestine than Israel. Netanyahu knows this and is trying to bleed every last drop of leverage out of the US before the relationship collapses.
Phang: "The incestuous relationships that exist in the MAGA moron-sphere is remarkable. I can say Tate brothers, and I don't need six degrees of separation to even get to Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, Don Jr., or Barron Trump. I mean, I could spit and hit all of them and then some."
