NOBODY KNOWS just how many Americans per year are killed off by health insurance companies delaying and denying coverage because they DON’T SHARE THE DATA.

Good morning to anyone who has paid into Social Security their whole lives and will not quietly stand by and let Elon Musk & Donald Trump take away our benefits. Or destroy Medicare & The ACA.

One of the greatest tragedies in mankind's entire history may be that morality was hijacked by religion.

"By glorifying pristine landscapes, which exist only in the imagination of romantics, Western conservationists divert attention from the places where people live and the choices they make every day that do true damage to the natural world of which they are part."
The Myth of a Wilderness Without Humans
For over a century, conflicting views of wild nature created a rift between indigenous people and misguided conservationists.

Subtitles aren’t just for deaf or hard of hearing players. They’re important for players in loud environments (who can’t use headphones), non-native speakers who rely on text to follow dialogue, and many neurodivergent folks who struggle to focus or process audio quickly. Just to mention few.

Our suggestion is to stop subsidizing the destruction of the west and start repairing the damage done.

The other half of mitigating the climate crisis is repairing our carbon sinks. There's 630 million acres of public land and a billion+ acres used to grow crops we don't eat.

overgrazing and farming turn carbon sinks into carbon sources.

Yet less than 1% of us cattle ever see public land.

Don’t forget that your local libraries offer to stream books on tape through phone apps, free with library membership.
