Thailand: Insurgents Target Civilians in South Separatist insurgents in southern Thailand carried out an unlawful grenade attack against civilians on November 20, 2024, at the construction site of a 136-meter-high statue of a Chinese goddess in So...

Really disturbing and important research by HRW on the ongoing killings and intimidation by Southern Thai insurgents, who continue 2 target & kill non-Muslim teachers & civil servants. I documented the same pattern more than a decade ago. www.hrw.org/news/2024/11...

How Brunch Came to a Backyard Farm in Compton It was once a vacant, weedy lot next to a school. Now, it provides fresh produce and a twice-monthly meal to customers.

What an awesome project connecting urban people to farming and providing quality food to people who need it. A farm in Compton, now that is cool.

A huge and very important developmentβ€”Israeli officials, Netanyahu foremostβ€”have escaped responsibility for their criminal actions for too long. It is not anti-Semitic 2 hold Israeli officials 2 the same very laws of war developed out of the Shoah (Holocaust) when we vowed β€œnever again”.

I heard that Andrew Tate tried to come stretch his awkward wings here and got banned in just one day.

Sorry, hate has no home here. Stay in the bad place, thanks.

To be clear, we do have plans for scaling, we just kinda expected more than a couple days notice before getting blasted with a million new users a day.
The team is rapidly deploying fixes and new software to adapt. More servers in the mail.

New additions at the Ampefy Farm in Madagascar, our Peking ducklings are emerging from their eggs. Amazing life-affirming process to watch. It takes them 24-48 hours to break out of their shells (you can see the small holes of the ones still emerging).

Just landed on this platform, goodbye to X. It sucks to loose 45K followers built up over 10 years of human rights reporting. But I can’t be present on a platform owned by a racist, xenophobic, transphobic sycophant. So here we go, human rights for all!
