We just got the final results in Paris.
Center-left got 38%, conservatives got 25%, radical left 12%, the (sorta-right) centrists 11%, & the far-right 10%.
That means all can remain in runoff.
Left now favored… but if there’s consolidation on the right but not the left, it could get v tricky.

This is why candidates have to spend too much time begging for money. The system needs to change.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE
When confronted by a fascistic authoritarian, I can think of nothing more corrosive to a nation's democratic values than a mainstream news media that peddles false equivalencies, prioritizes balance over objectivity, and indulges in relentless bothsidesism.

President Donald Trump has spent Sunday calling for the death penalty for reporters covering his war in Iran in a negative manner. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-demand...
The Quapaw Nation—only US Native community to cleanup one of the country’s worst sites of environmental contamination.
The waste rock, laced with chemicals, was left after miners extracted millions of tons of lead and zinc from the Tri-State Mining District.

Loved it so much
Oh my god.
This is my ex wife’s sister.
She was nominated for a Nobel Prize a few years ago for her work.
I’m absolutely crushed.
She was a spectacular human.
The Trump administration lowered the authorization level for lethal force, broadened target categories, inflated threat assessments and fired inspectors general, according to more than a dozen current and former national security personnel.
To all the people in Minnesota who are bravely taking to the streets to defend their immigrant communities and their rights: We will get through this, together.
Here's some thoughts on this piece about @itiscolossal.bsky.social from @theguardian.com @olliemilman.bsky.social. There's very little support for de-extinction of moa in NZ. Colossal thrives on uncritical puff pieces from entertainment media & toxic Twitter.

Trump said Iran refused negotiations and was about to attack. His own Pentagon said there was no such intelligence. An Omani mediator says a deal was close the day before bombs fell. Now Iran’s FM says people are dying because Trump “wants to have fun.” Congress must act.

Big Tech is lying to us. They are not transparent with how much water or power they use. We're building all of these #DataCenters b/c of the AI Bubble. When the bubble bursts, I don't want Texans being left holding the bag. Join us >>

Zuckerberg is dropping $65M on state legislators to block regulation of his AI data centers. Rural communities are fighting back — so he's buying their lawmakers instead. That's not a campaign contribution. That's a bribe with a press release.

Speak up even if your voice shakes!
As the wife of a Veteran, this hit me hard. A Trump fundraising email used a photo from soldiers' dignified transfer (the flag-draped coffins arriving home) to sell "private national security briefings" for donors. 1/3

You could in fact make that case
While we're speaking about Ryan Coogler, time for me to remind everyone of who are his Cinematographers:
Fruitvale - Rachel Morrison
Creed - Maryse Alberti
Black Panther - Rachel Morrison
Black Panther Wakanda Forever - Autumn Durald Arkapaw
Sinners - Autumn Durald Arkapaw
Trump's ICE goons arrested a wheelchair-bound decorated war hero who was just ONE interview away from becoming a U.S. citizen and threw him in jail for FOUR MONTHS!
Zahid Chaudhry won seven medals and lost his legs serving our country in Iraq-but that didn't stop ICE from arresting him.
There is nothing in the NATO Charter that requires a member-state to join wars of aggression started by another member.
Belated happy #Pi day
