I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Cruelty is the point.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID-19)
Just spoke with my CDC sources.
They warned that farm workers in California are falling sick with H5N1 symptoms, yet orders have reportedly come from RFK Jr. himself not to test, not to report, and to keep it quiet.

Let's just lay it out. Epstein was a glorified pimp who used and sold the services of children to the wealthy, the elite, and the powerful. His clients will destroy anything and everything to stay hidden. They will even starve poor people. They have no bottom and no conscience.

It would be great for Vince to do one but I’ll be legitimately sad & the season will be incomplete if @modelmorg.bsky.social doesn’t do a Deep Dive with Taran. It will also help her out so much for any future games she wants to do. Really hope she does #bb27

CO2 emissions rose by a record amount in 2024. Terrible news. Warming is already affecting birdlife on the planet negatively & the damage is accelerating.
To slow it we can stop flying, drive less, eat plant-based & consume less.
