Bipartisan bill proposes $1B program for advanced wastewater treatment upgrades The bill would fund projects using technologies like GAC and RO, with federal dollars covering up to 50% of project costs.

Eight Reasons Why I Insist on Keeping a Positive Attitude This is a difficult moment, but don't lose sight of the positives

WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK. this editing of our history because of tRump's obsession with DEI is DISGUSTING. i'm starting to wonder if wanting to edit history so bad is a result of wanting to REPEAT it so bad.

i made my calls to Gilibrand and Schumer. have you made yours?

The Politics of Blame Congressional Republicans are more serious about blaming Democrats for shutting down the government than about keeping it running

my nephew works for the government. so do a LOT of people's loved ones. i don't particularly want to see it shut down. but i also didn't want to see it GUTTED, and that's happening. so call or email your Senators and tell them to stop the CR.

yep. enjoyed. short stories, mostly.

i don't religiously Bluesky-read, so i missed this, but i'm fairly sure the Boston area has Freecycle?

Mexico has a Nobel Prize winning President.

USA has a convicted felon as a President.
