For Global North consumers, it's time to treat fish like meat and instead choose plant-based foods, with their much lower environmental and climate cost, and no deliberate killing (kelp for instance, see www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...). Let's leave fish to those for whom it is strictly essential!

I have never worried about crime traveling to Europe, not even when I did it as a white woman traveling by herself. On the other hand I drove across the entire state of Arkansas without stopping to pee because of their bathroom laws targeting trans people. So, yknow.

the thing about “ICE needs training” is that Jonathan Ross was a ten year DHS vet and a firearms instructor he’s the kind of guy they get training from the whole institution is rotten, throw it out

Hey @thehill.com we’re still waiting on your apologies for this lie. 🤷‍♀️

Star Trek Dot Com is launching a new Valentines Day campaign with a lot of new merch in tandem with the premier of Starfleet Academy this week and this is a reminder that Paramount/Skydance just fucked vendors by significantly increasing license costs & you should not buy any of those fuckers merch

It’s becoming increasingly hard to tell the difference between ICE operating in Minnesota and the FSB operating in Russia. It all makes much more sense when you think about it. Here is the FSB in Russia:

Standing against hate but qualms handing over billions for subs that probably won’t eventuate to Trump - the guy overseeing the kidnapping of presidents, murdering of soccer mums and snatching of civilians off the street.

Today, I want to highlight Abdol Hossein Sardari, an Iranian diplomat whose story few people may know — but it should inspire anyone who cares about courage and conscience. I came across him while searching for Iranian heroes from history. 1/10

I think it's an unqualified good if we all go apeshit over ICE murdering renee nicole good but Black, brown, and Asian people have been getting murdered by ICE for the past year and it's so hard for me not to become the joker thinking about how little impact those deaths had by comparison

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

True to form, f***ing over the people who voted for him again

The guy who pardoned all the January 6 insurrectionists who physically brutalized capitol police for hours.

If you're going to America, just don't.

I will reiterate that I've never had cause to regret abandoning the former Twitter more than two years ago now, and have suffered neither personally nor professionally for doing so. Since I left it's become more toxic and, yes, evil. The people who are still there should really consider moving on.

Every thing happening in the US right now is what you usually see in the 5 minute montage at the beginning of a post-apocalyptic film done to get the viewers up to speed with how we got here.

i know we're all busy but i just overheard a plumber say "parlez-vous français ? non ? you motherfuckers don't even speak french, do you" to a pair of french bulldogs

I’m not linking but I just read a columnist (one of my favorites) say Trump “has no ideology beyond his own power.” Ten years in, this trope should die. Trump's ideology is white supremacist and that goes a long way in explaining his imperialism and protectionism.

ABC Australia just reported that there is a lot of dispute about who should control Greenland NO THERE FUCKING ISN’T Akin to reporting that there is a dispute about control of Ukraine because one psychopathic murder / war criminal says so Normalisation of fascism in Australia is at crisis levels

The murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross. www.startribune.com/ice-agent-wh...

Bombs away

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

A Washington Post article suggests that, beyond a certain threshold, larger homes don't make people happier. Instead, well-being is correlated with affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods where they feel socially connected. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

Cricket update: we had a 6 minute delay because the australian batter was distracted by an older woman in the 2nd deck of the crowd holding 7 ice cream cones. The next pitch went at his head and he did a somersault.

Give a 🏅 to that female journalist, I bet a Production Manager had a stroke !

She knows nothing about international politics (and she doesn’t care)

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

My dad, 85 years old, suffering from the effects of a 2 year struggle with cancer, and chief of surgery at the Chinook Regional Hospital for decades, was moved from an already overcrowded space to an “overcapacity room” while he recovers from a stomach bleed and pneumonia. This is the room. 🧵🧵🧵

Fun fact of the day: in Australia, we have a class of venemous snakes called “black snakes”, and another which is called “brown snakes” (yea, we are highly imaginative people). King Brown snakes are, of course, black snakes.

Worth remembering that in the UK & all high-income countries, far more cereals are fed to livestock than directly consumed by humans - adding much inefficiency to food systems. Shifts towards more plant-based diets are essential for food security - see bsky.app/profile/geof...

Every new extinction ripples out beyond the affected species, from ecosystems to human knowledge across culture, spirituality and science.

Immigration is incredible because it's one of the few policy areas where people are willing to suffer real, concrete consequences in order to solve completely imaginary problems.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

This was exactly Adolf Eichmann's job.

Say her name, Heba Al‑Abadla. I remember when she was killed, her whole family slaughtered, to stop her work as a journalist: she was a host of the local Al-Azhar radio station, owned by Al-Azhar University in Gaza, and the co-founder of the Social Media Club-Palestine. It took 2 years to bury her.
