The Jedwabne pogrom of 1941 was one of the most brutal acts in the entire Shoah, committed by Poles against Polish Jews, not by the occupying Germans. Now the local government and people are denying that Poles committed this act. www.timesofisrael.com/polish-towns...

Heat pump orders up 2x in a month. Solar panel inquiries up 250%. EV leases up 85%.
The Iran crisis has made energy security feel personal.
I understand why: I have solar panels, a heat pump & EV on a flexible tariff. When gas prices spike, my bills barely move.

BREAKING: The House just failed to pass a resolution to end Trump's war with Iran by one vote.
The count was 213-214.
Just one Democrat, Jared Golden, voted to let Trump keep waging the war.
Personally don't recommend these. As the article notes, these properties are typically achieved through PFAS, which can shed carcinogens in your home (which you then inhale) or come out in the wash (polluting waterways for decades). Will try to do a thread on how to treat stains in the wash.
Around 20% of hospital beds in the US are in Christianist facilities, most Catholic, that have happily been denying reproductive health care and gender-affirming care for decades AND enjoying a nonprofit status. Most people don't realize the stranglehold the church has until it's too late.
This whole thread is really worth reading, RE: the election in Hungary.
Please don't blame the Hebrew Bible for this. Pete Hegseth's bigotry is entirely rooted in a certain form of Christian interpretation.
When missionaries edited the Christian Bible for enslaved people to take out parts that might inspire liberation, they took out half of the NT and 90% of the OT.

I can't decide if Netanyahu actively hopes to stoke antisemitism against the Diaspora for his own political gain, or if his life experience as an Israeli is just so cut off from being a Diaspora Jew that he genuinely can't imagine what this sort of rhetoric does for Jews as a minority group.
Peter Magyar confirmed that Szijjarto, Orbán's FM, has barricaded himself with some of his closest colleagues and is shredding documents related to the sanctions on Russia any other evidence of treason.
Seattle: there is a proposal to build five of these things in our city. Yes, really.
Measurements by buoys at four latitudes in the western Atlantic provide the strongest evidence yet that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation is weakening
Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

The rhetoric of ”Beirut is civilized because it’s Christian, not like that uncivilized backwater Yemen” is why no one should believe that Tucker Carlson is any sort of ally to subaltern Muslim communities, even if right now he chooses to focus his white nationalism on attacking Israel.
A lot of people in the Jewish establishment need to understand that the state of Israel's actions really do have an impact on how people worldwide perceive all Jews. And some people in the Jewish left need to understand that some of it really is not about Israel at all.

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.
