Deliberate democracy experiments constantly show that people can agree on sufficiency policies that increase the well-being of the majority.

On the contrary, in the real representative democracy our parties pursue limited self-interest of institutions and corporations, and themselves.

Qianjiadong Reservoir in southern Hunan, China, produces a double harvest: solar energy and yellow carp. The solar farm produces up to 80 megawatts of power while the fish forage beneath the panels. With a massive scale-up of solar and wind at home and cheap exports of the technology, China is driving a worldwide surge of renewable energyโ€”Scienceโ€™s 2025 Breakthrough of the Year.

The calls for trans people to be quieter as we're wiped out are only going to increase, and you owe it to your sisters and brothers to get louder and louder.

Im not worried about the country radicalizing. What i need to see is whether people understand what needs to be done. Lots of children in camps still. Lots of waiting around for elections or thinking the courts have magic powers.

7-Year-Old Migrant Girl Dies Of Dehydration And Shock In U.S. Border Patrol Custody The girl's death underscores the crisis precipitated by large groups of families seeking asylum where there are inadequate facilities to detain them.

CBP didnโ€™t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old.

โ€œ8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ
