I am once again reminding people that neuroscientists have physically measured people’s empathy responses prior to gaining great power and after gaining great power and when they said “power corrupts absolutely,” they have the data 📊 now to back that up.

History has shown that when an autocrat is faced with public opposition to their domestic policies, nothing distracts the populace better than a foreign war.

Lemme get this straight: the only country in the Middle East to have nukes and the only country to ever use nukes on civilians are bombing another country to stop it getting nukes, even though their own intel shows it's not trying to get nukes. Is that about right?

Is it then a war crime for Israeli forces to have bombed hospitals in Gaza, while targeting and killing health care workers? There aren’t 2 sets of rules. War crimes are war crimes.

“From 1981 to 2015, there were an average of 18 smoke hours per year in the city of Calgary. No year had over 100. Now we see hundreds of smoke hours routinely: 315 in 2017, 450 in 2018, 439 in 2021, 512 in 2023, and 2024 was ‘only’ 200.”

If you watch only one video today, let it be this one. Watch NYU Stern School of Business Professor Scott Galloway’s outstanding commentary on what prosperity and wealth should mean in America. His words could not be more on point and timely. Please pass it on.

I know there was a lot going on in American politics today, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight how much I admire the work that Greta Thunberg and the Freedom Flotilla are doing. They're sailing an aid ship across the Mediterranean to Gaza right now, despite lacking Israeli permission.

Book bans do not keep our students safe; rather, they hinder their development into well-rounded, adults and engaged citizens. SB 13 is a dangerous bill for our schools and will hurt LGBTQIA+ kids. I voted NO on SB 13 today. Books are not the source of harm, they are a source of growth. #txlege

The Bible contains sexually explicit, vulgar, violent & age inappropriate passages. Will it be banned from school libraries as well? Otherwise, it’s just hypocrisy to appease a dwindling UCP base or a much needed distraction from Smith’s UCP #corruptcare. #abpoli #ableg www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Israeli soldiers intentionally fired at a delegation of about 30 Arab & EU diplomats, ambassadors and consuls, visiting Jenin refugee camp, in the West Bank. Israel claims "it was an accident" and that they fired "warning shots" because they "felt in danger". Israel was trying to intimidate them.
