If the reports are correct, Trump will release from these reservoirs, 32,000 acre-ft (~10 billion gals) will be lost. Some will evaporate, some will seep into groundwater. Farmers who had rights to that water are now unlikely to have physical or legal access to it.

I have been at WHO for over 10 years. Like my colleagues, I have worked my butt off day and night to fight Covid and work towards universal access to health care. This place frustrates me every day.

Thank you to all my friends, colleagues, and everyone who has wished me well during the ordeal in the past few days.
I'm especially grateful to the colleagues and airport staff, who were selfless as they tried to protect me.

Economics of Coalition’s nuclear modelling are worth nothing
If someone says the opposition’s financial case shows that nuclear is cheaper than firmed renewables, all other things equal, then that person is lying.

When the CM use the word “we”…🙄
I cringe 😩
I’m never sorry that the poor folk at the CM feel betrayed by Tory politicians … I’m more annoyed that they seek to express some collective sentiment like we’ve all forgotten the destruction right wing outlets caused during the ‘23 referendum 😥

Amazon had $15B in profits last quarter. Its stock recently hit a record high.
Don't tell us a company that's paid its CEO over $106M in three years can't afford to treat its workers fairly.
That's why thousands of Amazon workers are striking in 20+ countries on Cyber Monday.
