for fuckโ€™s sake, this is just what we need โ€” another vanity project so a power-mad, broken-inside piss-baby can feel good about his own loser self.

itโ€™s called the โ€˜Shield of the Americas.โ€™

I know, right? it sounds exactly like something a ten-year-old boy would doodle on the cover of his notebook while heโ€™s supposed to be paying attention in class. but itโ€™s more than just a stupid name. itโ€™s sort of a Sargent Fuckfaceโ€™s Lonely Fascists Club Band.

Dramatic rise in water-related violence recorded since 2022 Experts say climate crisis, corruption and lack or misuse of infrastructure among factors driving water conflicts

As we witness the horror of attacks on desalination plants, we need to be aware, on a warming planet, conflict over water, using water as a weapon of war, & targeting people seeking water is on the rise

- in the past 4 years, it's nearly doubled:

Waiting for a bunch of posts from politicians about international women's day while their countries are curtailing the rights of women or are are denying care to our trans women siblings or whose justice systems systematically fail to protect women & protect abusers.

TRUMP/GOP COULD'VE KEPT HEALTH INSURANCE FOR OVER 20+ MILLION AMERICANS FOR $35B A YEAR; Yet, instead, DJT spends $40B on Milei; A BILLION $ A DAY ON WAR; another $500B for Military 2027; AND CBO says DJT/Miller's Internment prisons will cost $315B! YET, called Harris's $40B for Housing "Socialism"?

Also if you're a sovereign nation which is invaded, you have every right to defence. Ukraine and Palestine have my full support, and Iran is more complicated but Obama at least had a diplomatic solution until a racist sack of figurative and literal crap fucked everything.

โ€˜Same Ingredients, Different Recipeโ€™ in Proposed U.S. Book Ban House Resolution 7661, introduced on February 24, would withhold federal funds from public classrooms and school libraries alleged to have โ€œsexually oriented materialโ€ on their shelves.

They're coming for our books again.

Introduced by far-right idiot Mary E. Miller and co-sponsored by 17 GOP congressmen, HR 7661 would use the hammer of federal funds to force schools nationwide to remove books the GOP doesn't like from library shelves.

On International Women's Day we stand with our Palestinian sisters. We condemn the apartheid, incarceration and genocide that Israel subjects them to and respect their courage, resilience, dignity and resistance. Palestinian women deserve, and will have, freedom, justice and equality. #FreePalestine

Fact - we are ruining our planet: our children and their children will bear the brunt of our lack of action. We have one planet earth, we clearly donโ€™t respect her. This current regime is turning back protections even further. Do you care?
