OK so let me break down the pending cargo ship disaster for you. Maybe you think, I'm fine! 32% of the world's plastic comes from China. Thats NEARLY ALL of your goods containers. Everything you use in a plastic container is about to be gone from the shelves. Good luck.

Serious question: did we pass the point of no return vis-à-vis plastic pollution? Like, should I stop my anti-glitter campaign and just eat a bottle because nothing matters + I’d literally shit sparkles?

What’s incredible is how obvious it is what’s happening - and yet how difficult it is to believe

I still believe genderless public bathrooms with fully private doors, genderless communal sinks and mirrors, parenting stations, and free menstrual care products should be the universal standard. It’s just a bathroom. It should be centered around bathroom needs, parenting needs, and hygiene needs

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

Mexico's Senate will vote Monday on a fast tracked initiative to reform the country's telecommunication law on the request of President Claudia Sheinbaum. The reform, which will ban foreign propaganda, comes after the Trump admin ran an anti-migrant on Mexican TV. My story for the El Paso Times:

This has always been an obvious problem with their slapdash approach. You can temporarily “save money” on paper by deciding to randomly stop paying bills. But if it turns out you needed some of that stuff, it’s ultimately going to be more expensive.

Saving to read later - this looks like a banger

This is literally the opening scene of The Last of Us

The fact that we are also making lists of Jewish professors proves the harmlessness of our registry of autistic children. by Linda McMahon and RFK Jr.

Count UMD among the schools whose faculty senates have asked management to join academic NATO and defend ourselves from Trump. Now we just need to make 'em live up to it.

has anyone studied this

Kinda insane and shows how afraid the networks are of upsetting this administration that a guy who killed 7 people and wounded 48 with “47” literally tattooed on his face has all but been forgotten like there’s still not a very serious threat emanating from every pore of this pathetic cult

As this series of charts from @washingtonpost.com shows, the long-term planning by Paris to reduce the city's use of automobiles has paid major dividends in terms of improved air quality 🧪

#ICYMI The boss is not your friend. Just like how Colectivo tried to drag the process of contract negotiations, the owners of Anodyne are doing the same www.wpr.org/news/milwauk...

Oh my god this is insane - I’m struggling to find a comparison but it’s something like “the Navy cancelled all submarines”

If the goal was to warfight the earth, mankind is succeeding

This seems important

Where is the first family? Isn’t it weird they’ve completely distanced themselves and no one is reporting on it? After years of pearl clutching during the Obama and Biden administrations, did the media suddenly decide to acquiesce to calls for privacy?

Bad for school kids, bad for farmers, and sure as hell won’t “make America healthy again.”

wonder if we're going to see axes of inequality widen considerably in the short and medium term between people who can afford food, medicine, cosmetics, etc that employ private third party quality control vs. people who have to take their chances with what's affordable

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month. It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.
