A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.
Dudes. As a society we taught young women to walk with keys between their fingers in dark parking lots and to carry pepper spray in their purse.
So yes. I’m asking you to be responsible for the actions of other men. After all, that’s what you’ve asked of women for centuries.

Shoebills are unfortunately not doing too well in the wild. It has been estimated that there are only between 3,300 - 5,300 adult shoebills left in the world according to IUCN. This is due to wars, habitat loss, poaching and capture for the illegal pet trade.

Get this map for every child you know. Frame it and hang it on their bedroom wall ( antonthomasart.com ). It will dial-up their empathy.
Unless you absolutely hate porcini mushrooms, including them will help create that delicious burger umami.

The highest quality video of the moon was just released…

Japan just approved oral antiviral 💊 ensitrelvir (Xocova) for post-exposure prevention of Covid. In a Phase 3 trial of 2000+, it reduced symptomatic infection risk by ~67% vs placebo.
This is promising & adds another layer of prevention

We were told schools were safe. Teachers did their best to scrub tables and it’s clear from the evidence the government knew from day 1 that it was a predominantly airborne virus. Over 520 teachers and 200 children have died in the UK so far. 🧵
