Cats Are Better Than Men Because

HI Explosive Ordnance Risk Education session in the school © R. Crews / HI

1/2 At #22MSP, as part of the ICBL @minefreeworld.bsky.social, we remind States Parties: Educating civilians about mine dangers is a core legal duty under Art. 5 of the #MineBanTreaty. Yet in 2024, only 2% of global mine action funding went to risk education.
We need more financial commitment – now!

Perfect analogy

The military now has drones that use x-ray vision to see through boat hulls.....

But only if your stupid like
Tom Cotton.

Congress used to have the power of the purse and the power to declare war.

Malone claims that RFK Jr. has been “explicitly clear” that MMR vaccine works.

Kennedy has also been “explicitly clear” that he thinks MMR causes autism.

My great grandmother painted for fun. I grew up with one of her paintings – a stand of pine trees weighted down with heavy snow. I’ve always loved that painting so I thought I would create my own version. I hope you enjoy the results!

If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

Pity that Jimmy Kimmel didn’t make noise about the 300,000+ Black women who lost their jobs.

UK farmers lose £800m after heat and drought cause one of worst harvests on record Many now concerned about ability to make living in fast-changing climate after one of worst grain harvests recorded

This is why the scientists are talking about the #DavidCameron "green crap". You'll wish governments paid more attention when we're hunting for something to eat. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

@aoc.bsky.social GET @governor.ny.gov
To GERRYMANDER NY STATE

GET RID OF EVERY GOP SEAT NOW

RED STATES ARE DOING IT NOW BECAUSE SCOTUS IS A JOKE!!!!

A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award.

And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.

What we are watching - as U.S. citizens are dragged out of cars and illegal war is waged in the Caribbean - is the corruption of the most sacred power we give the President - the power of violence.

We are no longer a democracy if the regime can use violence without restraint.

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Interesting that the Seattle Police Department's recruitment campaign is using school resource officers (cops in schools) as an example of the work police can do. The school board has been verrrrrry clear that they are not approving cops in schools.

No hawk photos today because he was startled by this guy.

excited to award my kids the Burger King Peace Prize this weekend

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

I am not throwing good money at problems in competition with billionaires. As a wage earner, it’s no contest. Please reform political donations;automatically exclude donors from public contracts/media ownership. When you clean up political funding, I will contribute.

What Labour NEEDS is to recognize -- from what other countries have already experienced -- that moving to the RIGHT is not the way to defeat the right. It just feeds the illusion that the right-winger have the correct ideas.

Rep. Grijalva says she was pepper-sprayed by ICE

THe power of the press in the UK.

Ignoring "all the Green crap" as David Cameron did, costs farmers £800m in one year.

But a slight and easily avoidable increase in Inheritance Tax by Labour is an excuse for a farmers' revolt?

New recycling tech recovers nearly pure nickel and cobalt from old EV batteries Researchers have developed an eco-friendly recycling tech that extracts 99 percent pure nickel and cobalt from waste batteries.

If anyone cares at all, EV battery recycling is now hitting 99% recovery for important metals

Please remind me again what the recycle rate for fossil fuels is

In the 4.5-mile bike ride to pick up my kids from school, I found the following in painted bike lanes: at least 6 trash bins, a parked car, a parked firefighter truck (likely lunch break), and a parked city maintenance vehicle. This is unacceptable, and another reason why paint is not infrastructure

The White House surrenders at 138 million views. Sabrina wins.

I have knocked a lot of doors, including Republican doors.

I have never had one person tell me they would like to send their tax money to private religious schools.

I want to hear Bill Cassidy say he regrets voting for RFK Jr. If not, I’ll assume he just regrets the political discomfort this is causing him.

How much cocaine has this guy been sniffing?
