Egg prices are soaring again. Hereโ€™s why and what to expect Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

A moment of utter beauty as the mountains of the Canadian Rockies catch the first rays of light and emerge out of dense fog on a crisp, fresh autumn morning.

Curious what everyone thinks is the best way to have a positive or any impact on the country, during the first 30 days of the new administration.

With absolutely no thought to the future and honestly, no thought to whether they're leaving the air that THEY have to breathe and the water they drink free from poison.

Searching for a ray of hope? Look at Wisconsin. Stringing together small wins can lead to big progress.

After I moved to Canada a couple of years ago I realized that I was no longer constantly running a massive stress routine in the background of my mind worrying about health care and guns. It was weirdly noticeable only when it stopped.

UnitedHealth CEO's killing unleashes social media rage against insurers The lack of sympathy may underscore how Americans tend to like their own insurer but distrust the industry as a whole.

โ€œDonโ€™t feed the trollsโ€ also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

Itโ€™s not easy and takes constant practice!

An Arctic Hamlet is Sinking Into the Thawing Permafrost (Gift Article) Canada is losing its permafrost to climate change. The Indigenous residents of Tuktoyaktuk know theyโ€™ll have to move but donโ€™t agree on when.

This Inuit community is having to move all because of the green energy/climate change hoax. It is a very, very elaborate hoax indeed! Soros had the permafrost melted, I tell you!

This is sarcasm in case I have to say it. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/w...

I donโ€™t know who needs to hear this but you are on this earth for a reason. It may be you are someoneโ€™s best friend, it may be you are the caretaker to a hurt animal, it may be you smiled to someone on the bus & so they made it through the day. But you are needed. Thank you for existing.

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved.

We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.
