am sick about this.

American Rivers Announces America’s Most Endangered Rivers® of 2026 in 41st Annual Report American Rivers is today announcing America’s Most Endangered Rivers® of 2026 in its 41st annual report. With 80 percent of our nation’s rivers lacking adequate protection, according to the National P...

American Rivers named the South Kawishiwi River—a vital artery of the iconic Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness— to America’s Most Endangered Rivers® list of 2026, due to proposed sulfide-ore copper mining in its headwaters. Urge the Senate to save the BWCA.

And the company that wants to mine there? It’s Chilean-owned Twin Metals, which plans to ship the ore to China. This isn’t “America First.” This is selling out American public lands to foreign interests permanently.

Headline reads: White House budget seeks to scrap 54 major NASA science missions. Over an image of Jupiter.

Experts found that the White House budget request for the upcoming fiscal year could defund 54 NASA science missions, including a spacecraft currently studying Jupiter and two planned Venus missions: www.scientificamerican.com/article/whit...

The good news is organizers are fighting back and winning. Local activists have helped prevent the construction or conversion of 12 new detention centers across the country. This includes rural areas and deep red states, where some GOP Members of Congress oppose DHS’ planned warehouse conversions.

Science is good. We should fund it.

Our job is to put maximal pressure on everyone who has the power to stop Trump’s illegal war with Iran: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

The viciousness of issuing this ruling on Trans Day of Visibility is so profound.

Just filled with anger and sorrow for kids across this country who deserve love, respect, and safety instead of this foul hatred.

Republicans, in contrast, have elected one of the most corrupt politicians in U.S. history…gutted the entirety of U.S. corporate oversight…created untold chaos and harm with gestapo-grade racial policing and unnecessary, costly war.

I’m sitting here with this thing of thimbles, …my grandma Fay’s thimble collection…I inherited when she died. when she died I would put these thimbles, 10 of them, on my fingers & type poems, & we were making art together….I think almost all art is made by the dead, & we don’t know it.

Every single time a new outlet feels compelled to interview an unremarkable billionaire they should pause and ask themselves if there isn't an under-represented artist, scientist, activist, engineer, or academic actually doing useful/interesting things that's more deserving of your readership's time
