“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”
Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life.
Common sense.
Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

Note the total silence from troops as Trump pushes the big lie: "You know, we won the second election by a lot, so we had to just prove it by winning the third by too big to rig I called it."

The words of a stable genius.
Trump: "They spent $900,093,000 on the catapults trying to get them to work. And they had steam, which worked so beautifully and it has for 50 years, right? So we're gonna go back. Seriously fellas, I want to make that change. I'm gonna do an executive order."

Are cats conscious of time? I mean bigger picture time? Like “it’s been a year since I saw my favorite tree” (because my people moved).

As someone who once was a migrant with Indefinite Leave to Remain, I’m pretty sure I still couldn’t access most social programs. (I later got my citizenship.) Also how could they be making £39k and not pay a penny in tax?!
In their desperate efforts to outflank Reform from the (even further) right, the Tories are proposing a policy that accords with the preferences of roughly 3% of the electorate.
Here Lam explicitly sets out her proposal - which is official Conservative Party policy - to deport long-standing legal permanent residents who have *ever* claimed any benefit, including the state pension or child benefit (even if the child is British), or who earn less than £39K.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

If you can, go live & work abroad for at least 3-5 years. You’re a prime candidate bc you have solid experience. It will change your life in ways you can’t imagine.
If you’re a people-pleaser, start unlearning that now; by the time you’re in your early 40s you’ll be wishing you started earlier

This is poetry. 🔥
The White Man is a perpetual child, incapable of being held accountable due to the position he often finds himself in while benefiting from absolute power over the lives of those around him. He may steal the lives of others while claiming supremacy. He will steal all you have and claim Christ

Enslaved people built the White House. I don’t care if it’s defiled or burnt down. I care more about people being disappeared, families being ripped apart. I get the symbolic feeling, but we also need to get serious.
The building is bullshit theater. What matters is people.
