“Hey, Teenagers: Pay close attention to the books people try to ban. Then, make a beeline to read those books, if you can. Find out for yourself why those people want that book banned. Find out for yourself if they can be trusted to know what’s best for you.”

"The masters of war pretend not to know that it takes only a moment to destroy, yet a lifetime is often not enough to rebuild. They turn a blind eye to the fact that billions of dollars are spent on killing and devastation, yet the resources needed for healing, education and restoration are nowhere to be found."

-Pope Leo XIV

You know what's really embarrassing about this conflict? Iran has a 90 percent literacy rate while 50 per cent of the US reads at the 6th grade level or below. Iran sent Phds to the ceasefire talks. The US sent realtors.

Anti-Israel jews in New York to protest the death penalty law approved by the murderous Israeli regime for Palestinians.

During the protest, Israeli Zionists verbally abused jews with antisemitic remarks.

Never thought I’d see this day coming.😲

Why does the world allow genocides in places like Congo, Palestine, & Sudan? Racism.

Why can the US instigate an illegal war in Iran with no real pushback? Racism.

Why is ICE allowed to freely murder & brutalize people? Racism.

Why can’t we truly progress as a society? Racism.

South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.

THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

Notice how the most celebrated and successful space mission in *decades* was run by at least 50% “DEI hires”—not all white men? And not even all Americans. Maybe diversity *is* strength . . .

Consumers urged to ‘completely avoid’ UK-caught cod as population plunges Marine Conservation Society warns that fish numbers have reached dangerous point of decline

UK-caught cod joins mackerel, as overfishing means loss of traditional British fish
