The Gaza ceasefire began months ago. Here’s why the fighting persists.
Since the U.S.-brokered truce came into effect, four Israeli soldiers have been killed in Gaza, with more injured.

Epstein files made plain what should’ve already been clear. White billionaires and their political pawns have been funding and fomenting white supremacist nationalist uprisings across the Americas and Europe. An end democracy and international governance as a means for more land grabs and genocide.

Every news outlet, pundit and analyst who tries to tell you that Epstein was a Russian intelligence operative instead of an Israeli one is just telling you they're a propagandist. View it as a big flashing sign that says "Never trust anything from this source ever again."

The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.
Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.

The regularity of “unprecedented” sightings of deep-sea animals makes me feel like we’ve finally gotten every ecosystem on earth on its last leg
During a dive last year in the Atlantic Ocean off Argentina, researchers documented a giant phantom jelly, a deep-sea species rarely seen since it was discovered a little over a century ago. “There was a mixture of excitement and disbelief,” said one marine biologist. trib.al/HfkWfp4
