@lyz.bsky.social is right: one thing the Epstein fiasco has demonstrated clearly is that #MeToo did not go nearly far enough.

After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne.

As winter flooding looms, it's worth noting that a young street tree in an asphalt surface can prevent 60% of the rain that falls on it from reaching the ground, even when not in leaf.

Increasing the low levels of urban tree cover should be a strategic national priority.

INVESTIGATION: Private equity giants are buying up youth sports facilities & banning parents from taking photos/videos of their own kids, instead forcing them to pay for photos.

When parents ignore the bans, the companies punish the kids.

What stage of capitalism is this?
