We are now open for pitches for @break_downradio Issue #5: Repair, which will examine how the world will or should respond to overshoot –– whether that's geoengineering and climate adaptation, or fundamental changes to how we live and work

“James suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and reportedly mistakenly told federal immigration officers he’d been born in Jamaica and was the illegitimate son of a former Jamaican prime minister. His mother and legal team are urging for his release.”

הליכוד:
הבחירות במדינת ישראל נגנבו על ידי מפלגות ערביות שתומכות בטרור ובחיסול המדינה היהודית באמצעות עבירות פליליות חמורות של שוחד, איומים, אלימות, זיופים ושימוש בתוכנות אסורות להמרצת מצביעים.
מפלגת הליכוד מעבירה למשטרה, לשב״כ ולוועדת הבחירות מאות עדויות וראיות על גניבת בחירות בקלפיות ערביות רבות- אלפי מעטפות עם כסף מזומן ופתקי רע״ם, איומים ואלימות כלפי חברי הקלפי, ריבוי מצביעים מאחורי הפרגוד, הצבעות בזהות כפולה, פערים בין מספר המעטפות למספר המצביעים, שימוש בתוכנות המרצה אסורות ועוד.
אנו דורשים מהמשטרה ומהשב״כ חקירה יסודית בגין גניבת הבחירות על ידי המפלגות הערביות ומיצוי הדין עם העבריינים.
אנו דורשים מוועדת הבחירות התייחסות מיידית לחקירת העבירות הפליליות הללו שפגעו באופן קיצוני בטוהר הבחירות בישראל ובתוצאות הבחירות.
זו פגיעה חמורה בדמוקרטיה הישראלית ובזכות הבחירה של אזרחי ישראל. גופי האכיפה מוכרחים לפעול ביד קשה ובאופן מיידי.

What can we do in the face of the growing power of tech giants? Build cyber-ecosocialism.

please, do not forget or fall quiet:
right now, Washington’s blockade on Cuba is preventing kids with Leukemia from getting treatment they need to survive. we are literally killing sick children in the name of their own "liberation".

It should be remarkable that in US politics a false accusation that you support(ed) the democratically elected Morsi government in Egypt is considered more disqualifying than the claim—true of perhaps all Republicans + many Dems—that you support Sisi's torture-dungeon autocracy

This is playing with fire.
Minks and ferrets have such humanlike lung cells that they’re the standard for testing human flu transmission. (Cows aren’t!)
An H5N1 epidemic raging in a mink farm is basically the plot for Dr. Evil tries to spark a pandemic. Luck isn’t a plan.

Here’s something you should know about minks:
They have lungs and airways remarkably similar on a cellular level to those of people.
They’ve spread flus and infected humans before with COVID-19.
Right now, bird flu is spreading on a Utah farm filled with thousands of them… 🧵

Please understand that when schools push students and teachers to use AI, they are not just making everyone involved dumber, they are also doing this
Google did this to build a data center in Finland.
It was illegal, but they did it anyway.
Big Tech is out of control.

Kushner clearly needs to be charged.
Kushner also failed to disclose himself as an agent of a foreign government, having been paid nearly $2 billion in total by foreign leaders. trib.al/OTkGEv6
