This makes me so happy! We had gopher tortoises on our property in Georgia and before we sold our house I called a couple of places to see if there was a way to protect the land they were on, but it wasn't feasible, I hope they are still ok.
Exciting news for Gopher Tortoises!
The Georgia #GopherTortoise Conservation Initiative recently reached its goal of permanently protecting 65 tortoise populations across the state!

Georgia’s Medicaid work requirements program spent two times as much on administrative costs as on health care costs — while preventing thousands of eligible Georgians from accessing health care.
Say it with me: Medicaid work requirements don’t work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzMqYttKv1c

Due to Bluesky video limits, a lot of people haven't been able to share some of the fabulous Groyper explainer videos being passed around the internet.
So I'm splitting them up & posting the best ones here:

Tech billionaire Peter Thiel keeps talking about the Antichrist. Why didn’t the New York Times ask any real questions about his power or agenda?

I love this man and his ability to remain sane and not just give up and move to an internet free island somewhere amazes me.
I’ve been in politics for over a half-century. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.
It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people. https://youtu.be/sP0pRIBRcDk?si=o8uynfvuoVhcX7p8
