Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.

"decision was made without a transparent and proper consultation with the atmospheric science community and has resulted in exceedingly short notice, with negative impacts on both planned and already funded NERC projects”

The acorn you plant in the morning will not give shade at noon;
And the thornless cactus must be bred by year on year of toil.
But listen, my brothers, listen; it is not ever the way,
For the roots of the poison ivy plant you cannot pull too soon;
If you…

In FY2022 the federal government spent $21 billion on universal free school meals (breakfast and lunch) to K-12 students across our whole beautiful country from sea to shining sea for the whole year.
That’s like 3 weeks worth of this stuff 👇🏻

Château-Gaillard, Eure, Normandy.
822 years ago, on the 7th of March 1204, Château Gaillard fell after being besieged by the French for six months, resulting in the loss of English control over Normandy. The weakened king John was later challenged by English barons leading to the sealing of the Magna Carta. #otd #history 🗃️

The analysis suggests that female Homo sapiens and male Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) mated more often than did male H. sapiens and female Neanderthals. It is unclear why.
