I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Trump defends Mohammed bin Salman over the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi:
"A lot of people didn't like that gentleman... Things happen... He knew nothing about it."
A US intelligence report concluded that bin Salman personally "approved an operation" to "kill or capture" Khashoggi.

That's more than 1,100 jobs lost at the CSIRO over the last two years.
"Combined, the staff association estimates that equates to cutting the agency’s size by a third."
This is more cuts to the CSIRO than was attempted by the Abbott government.

Europe's electricity system is changing rapidly and often in places that don't make the headlines.
Look at Estonia - not that long ago and fossil fuels dominated around 90% of electricity generation.
Today solar and wind eat more and more into the share of fossil fuel-generated electricity.

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.
The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.
