My favourite. As a small child I would be fascinated with this growing up through patches of moss. So beautiful and otherworldly.

TED makes multi-million-dollar investment to boost safe abortion in 10 countries This is the first time TED’s Audacious Project has invested in an organization specifically focused on abortion access and care.

The global reproductive rights organization Ipas will be receiving "multi millions" from TED's Audacious Project. This is the first time the project has funded an organization that works specifically in abortion access and care since the initiative was developed in 2018.

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

US farmers are rejecting multimillion-dollar datacenter bids for their land: β€˜I’m not for sale’ Families are navigating the tough choice between unimaginable riches and the identity that comes with land

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland.

Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M.

America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech.

This is what integrity looks like.

Seized Art, Eavesdropping Guards: Parents Describe a Clampdown at Dilley Detention Center as Kids Shared Their Stories Detainees told ProPublica that art supplies have been removed in room searches, immigrants have lost access to Gmail and staff hover within earshot during video calls.

NEW: Guards have taken away crayons, colored pencils & paper during recent room searches at Dilley, according to detainees and others. After one inspection, the children just β€œcried and cried and cried,” a mother said. The facility denies the claims.

USA women's hockey stars ACCEPT Flavor Flav's offer of Olympics party In a clip from inside the locker room, Trump phoned the men's hockey team after they defeated Canada. Trump told the players: 'I must tell you, we are going to have to bring the women's team.'

I may be Canadian, but this almost makes seeing the U.S. women beat Canada in Olympic hockey worthwhile. www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/winter...

You are one of the good people on this earth. Thank you for being a light and resisting the misogyny and racism emboldened by Trump. XO from Canada.

Where were Troy Nehls, Steve Scalise, and Markwayne Mullin when Trump posted a video depicting the Obamas as apes? And why were THEY so put out by Rep. Green’s message that they tried to physically intervene? Protecting their privilege as mediocre white guys? Toadying to Trump? Shameful. #SOTU

The ONLY people with courage to stand up to Trump during the #SOTU were people of colour. They are the only ones not afraid to lose his protection of privilege. They have been fighting injustice all along. I say again - listen to people of colour if you want the truth about justice. #Leadership.

The #SOTU was a pathetic display. A failing leader, who is clearly not intellectually, morally, or psychologically suited to lead even a charity raffle, told blatant lies while his pack of cowardly sycophants chanted USA - conflating the one leader with being patriotic. Just shameful.

He can stay, he can go. He can be impeached or voted out.  but removing Trump will not remove the infrastructure of an entire party that embraced him; the dark money that funded him, the online radicalization that drummed his army nor the racism he amplified and reanimated.  AOC

Many Dems are also complicit. They too have benefitted from the same system. Time for a complete overhaul. Trump is the symptom. Capitalism is the disease.

And I don’t want to hear shit about a censure vote against this man.

Rep. Al Greene was ejected from the State of the Union for the sign β€” β€œBlack People Aren’t Apes.”

Oversight Dems have access to a list of documents, including interviews detailing serious allegations against President Trump, that are missing from the DOJ’s so-called β€œunredacted” files.

Where are the missing files? What do they say? This all points to yet another cover up.

Canadian provinces are doing some bat-shit crazy things while we are distracted by the Trump circus. Nova Scotia’s anti-nature decisions (DNR, tax on EVs), attacks on higher education (NS, NB, Ont), privatizing healthcare (Alberta), etc. The mice are playing while the cat is away watching MAGA.

It is New England. They know what to do. Not the first big snowstorm and won’t be the last. Just stay off the roads and don’t try to shovel out yourself if you are not young and fit to avoid the coronary.

Congratulations to Team USA on their hockey gold. That overtime win was hard to watch but the game was incredible! So proud of Team Canada for their hard work - 42 shots on goal!

Lordy what a hockey game!

Gutted that the Canadian women didn’t take gold, but they did an amazing job and took silver. Congratulations to the US women’s team, they were so strong!

It makes me happy to see women playing hockey internationally.
