For years, people argued that there's no point in taking climate action unless China is onboard. I'm at a COP30 event where Chinese government officials and renewable industry reps are outlining the fast-paced renewable energy transition and long-term carbon neutrality plan. The story has flipped.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

Go directly to this account and follow the inspiring thread about Clifford Clinton, who fed people and fought corruption (successfully!)
With SNAP benefits going to shit because of rich assholes and corruption running rampant through politics I'd like to point your attention to a Clinton.

No, not one of those Clintons. This Clinton. Clifford Clinton.

Boosting this signal; remember, you saw nothing.
If you see someone stealing food - no you didn't.

Just a small reminder that our friends in Ukraine are STILL going through a real, scary, war.
We’ve been warned
about a possible missile attack tonight.

I checked that everything is charged
and have some food ready for breakfast.

No.
I’m not scared.
You can’t stay scared for 1,344 days.

Speaking as an honorary wombat, I approve of this message.
Today (it started hours ago in Australia) is World Wombat Day. These lovable beasts are facing formidable challenges--habitat destruction, cars, mange--leaving 2 of the 3 species endangered.

There are many rescues devoted to aiding wombats either coming out of the wild or going in. Check 'em out!

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.

This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

Do you ever look at what Bluesky thinks your interests are? Right now, it thinks I am interested in 1. The Archers. 2. Mike Johnson. 3. Russell Westbrook. I would like to say I am absolutely uninterested in ANY of those things, and have only heard of one. I now go back to ignoring this feature.
