“Palantir tracks everyone. So we built a site that tracks Palantir. They've been watching us. Now we can watch them. Contracts. Lawsuits. Executive pay. Global footprint. Lobbying activity. Media strategies. All in one place.”

12 million dollar no bid contract. Everything is about stripping the copper wire out of the walls of the country. Every deal is about the kickback. That $1.8M number from before was probably the actual estimate and Trump took 10 for himself and used 2 for the work. Paid with your tax dollars

As a Canadian, I have no frame of reference to make sense of this. The Americans seem to be all worked up about what it means to be masculine, and manly about it. This roster of all white males is going to talk about Muscular Christianity, using the language of warfare. I don't understand this.

Talamore has a secret to tell you. An endangered Vancouver Island marmot, Talamore was born at the Toronto Zoo in 2021, and released to the wild the following year. But the hot gossip is what happened next.

Trump announces "maybe I'll seize the capital of the US if voters displease me" and it'll be nothing more than a blip on the news at best

Make no mistake: in California, our democracy is working as it should. But our President is doing everything in his power to make you doubt that with constant lies. His baseless, anti-democratic rhetoric has no place in our electoral process.

They add life to a home and keep loneliness at bay. Each cat has their own unique personality and Haley makes sure that they get matched up to the right people. All the cats in this thread have been socialized, so they're friendly to people. They've also been given the proper vaccines, etc.

At the risk of sounding corny, I think dogs and cats save us as much as we save them. These companion animals will never lie or cheat on you. They will comfort you through the hardest of times. I swear to you: adopting a shelter animal will be the best decision of your life.

Haley has helped hundreds of cats. However, her ability to do more is limited by resources — the first being money (hence me trying to raise money for her operation) and second being space. She has a ton of cats right now in her care that need loving forever homes.

Haley paid for that cat's surgeries and nursed her back to health. Similarly, this orange cat that was abandoned by his owners and left emaciated (also with a broken jaw). Haley again paid for all his surgeries and nursed him back to health.

Hello! 👋 I'm hoping to raise money for two Bay Area cat rescues. If you post a screenshot of you donating at least $20, I will answer a style-related question for you. But first, let me tell you about the rescues, why they're worthy of your support, and hopefully get you to adopt a cat. 🧵

That includes Carol and Hubert, a year-old brother and sister pair that would love to be adopted together. Unfortunately, since they're no longer kittens, no one wants them anymore, so they're at risk of being separated. Haley is hoping to find someone who can adopted them as a bonded pair.

Right proper turkey shoot "Because the Chonhar Bridge has been damaged, the enemy concentrated a large number of lorries carrying military cargo, which were travelling through Armiansk. We managed to hit trucks transporting fuel and ammo. There were around 50 vehicles"

2/ We have a strict editorial firewall. That means when our reporters dig into a powerful institution, no donor can call our editor to kill the story. The money that keeps our lights on is completely separated from our decisions about what we investigate.

1/ At ProPublica, our funders have zero say in what we cover. That is a foundational, nonnegotiable rule. In a media landscape increasingly controlled by corporate owners, our nonprofit newsroom stands apart because our primary stakeholders are our readers.

Father Brown [BBC] is even more striking. Tiny little Cotswolds village that in the 1950s appeared to have a murder every week. But only in the summer, when it was lovely weather and all the flowers are in bloom.
