for every wolf you kill i'm going to personally eat one of your ponies
In some European regions, wolf packs have become a real danger especially for livestock.

Today, we are proposing a change of EU law that will help local authorities to actively manage wolf populations while protecting both biodiversity and our rural livelihoods.

Toni Morrison: “Racism may wear a new dress, buy a new pair of boots, but neither it nor its succubus twin fascism is new, or can make anything new. It can only reproduce the environment that supports its own health; fear, denial, and an atmosphere in which its victims have lost the will to fight.”

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.

I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

A reminder that this move to remove protection from wolves is also coming from Ursula Von der Leyen who's an aristocratic horse girl after her ancient pony was killed by one wolf.

The @ec.europa.eu is a joke really.
The @ec.europa.eu will table today the deprotection of #wolves

Another step away from science, and another case of embracing toxic culture wars in a way that just keeps feeding the beast.

Reminder: wolf hunting does nothing to reduce damage to farmers, but it does real ecological damage

"The stance of the Trump administration only exacerbates the growing recognition that allowing US companies to dominate the internet economy across much of the world was a terrible mistake."
As the United States launches an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico, it’s time for countries to come together to form an alliance against the US — and that includes rapidly curtailing their dependence on Silicon Valley.

The US can’t be allowed to get away with this.
We need an international alliance against the US and its tech industry

Sure, why not, get advice from an institute with a mission to "advance US policy interests" and "promote and advance American values".

Yeah that's exactly what we need to be spending billions on right now, what else would we spend it on? 🏘️👩‍⚕️🚊

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness."

Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

Happen to be near the site of a convent institution I’ve written about. Wondering if any of these places have *not* been converted into gated “luxury” housing. The developers sometimes give them vaguely religious names but this one has been called after another order entirely…

Ireland has contracted the US Defense Department agency the Institute for Security Governance (ISG) as consultants to advise on reorganisation of the Irish Air Corps, army and navy.

The anti-vaxx grifters and the social media platforms that amplify them are responsible for this. It could happen here too.

You might remember that Bishop Phonsie allowed these far-right podcasters host an event on Church property in Co. Waterford back in September.
UPDATE: The YouTube channel for the podcast "Catholic Unscripted" has now privated the episode in which its three hosts performed a Nazi salute in unison.

I have a copy of the full episode archived and am willing to make it available to journalists or researchers.
