Hi, I worked at USAID. 👋

Airdrops are universally acknowledged as probably the worst and least efficient way to get aid to people. You airdrop when you a) want to want to so something but can’t, or b) you don’t want to do anything but want to look like you are.

The man accused of killing a Minnesota lawmaker had spiritual roots in a Christian movement whose leaders speak of demon-possessed politicians and that proved its ability to mobilize followers during the January 6 insurrection, Stephanie McCrummen writes.
The Minnesota Suspect’s Radical Spiritual World

🌳✨ VICTORY FOR OUR TREES!
The City of Miami Commission has officially withdrawn Agenda which would’ve weakened our Tree Ordinance and Tree Trust Fund, risking our city’s canopy. Miami’s future is greener because of you.

The City of Miami is taking away the Goose of the Golden Eggs. Unsustainable development has made the city hotter, chaotic, unaffordable, and prone to flooding, and heat.

Email to your Commissioner!! Ask them to withdraw the defective tree ordinance sponsored by Mr. Gabela!

THE TREES IN MIAMI IS AT RISK

Efforts by the City of Miami Commissioners Board are underway to approve a deceptive new tree ordinance undoing a 2004-2019 community effort to protect tree canopy coverage. Miamers have saved them before. Now, we need to save again.
