Trump shut down includes SNAP. But Dem lawmakers said emergency funds shd be used. 2 judges said the same. So hopefully apparently Trump cant block it but who knows.

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Jane Goodall was a global legend at the forefront of discovery — breaking through barriers for women in primatology, science, and beyond.

Her curiosity, strength, and kindness changed the world, bridging countries and cultures in pursuit of a better future.

Jane Goodall has died.
She devoted her life to advocacy on behalf of chimpanzees and, after living among them,shared valuable insight into their lives. She advocated too for the wellbeing of other primates and the environment

She has been a magnificent inspiration.
Thank you Jane Goodall ♥️🙏🏽♥️

Robert Redford, director of "A River Runs Through It," was as much an icon of film as he was a passionate advocate for our lands and waters. His legacy will live on in every reach of river we keep free and flowing. www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar...

One of the greats has passed. Robert Redford was a celebrated actor, director, and someone who held a mirror up to America. His work will live on, but we Ordinary People will feel The Sting of his loss for years. Rest among the stars now, and when you see heaven, may a River Run Through It.

He was a great actor and so much more.
So sad to lose a tireless champion for the environment.
R.I.P. Robert Redford.

He was kind, intelligent, talented, compassionate, sensitive, fun, trustworthy and truthful- an ethical person who cared deeply about his family and about America.

He embodied everything we value and search for now . 💔

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

Starvation is the end stage of acute malnutrition. In Gaza “at least 30% of children under 5 are experiencing acute malnutrition.”

“The entire population now are starving …we reached the fifth stage, which is famine, because most people cannot access food.”

WATCH: Understanding the stages of starvation
According to the United Nations, more than 20,000 children were hospitalized in Gaza for malnutrition between April and mid July.

Thrilled to welcome back the MLB All-Star Game to Chicago!

There's simply no place like Wrigley Field — and fans from all over the world will get to experience that firsthand.

Looking forward to seeing you all in 2027!

Slept only a couple of hours, got up , made coffee..the dogs and I sat in the screened porch staring into the darkness.. PTSD can overwhelm you.. like a tsunami of memories.. it’s not the early years when I was in the shit that haunt me, it’s the latter years of hunting in the shadows ..I’m good now
