Mike Johnson and Pierre Poilievre have never been seen in the same room together.

-Both are religious fanatics who want to control your penis.
-Both hate women having bodily autonomy.
-Both want Palestine destroyed so they can usher in the end of days.
-Both hate you.

This is so cool. I have been intrigued by this mystery for as long as I became aware of it. Thank you for sharing Alice. Thank you for all your humanist work as well. I always share your work with my son. Humanist youth for the future!

JK Rowling is now amplifying and interacting with Ian Miles Cheong. Someone who has repeatedly called for lowering the age of consent.

Arctic tundra now emits planet-warming pollution, federal report finds Arctic tundra is releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as hotter temperatures melt frozen ground and wildfires increase.

The climate crisis is here and now, and every single day that goes by where we don’t take action, it is getting worse.

We cannot wait. We must take bold, immediate steps to save our planet and our people. www.npr.org/2024/12/10/n...
