Not too sure about this headline, but the article is interesting.
«Lawmakers considered rebranding the caucus for this Congress but decided against it, two sources said. Another moderate faction, the Tuesday Group, continues to exist with a seat at the leadership meeting table, and many former Republican Main Street Caucus members participate in that caucus. “Members have gotten more involved in that. That has now become the caucus, the place, to discuss policy,” the former GOP lawmaker said.»
«Amazon’s struggle to police its site adds to the mounting evidence that America’s tech giants have lost control of their massive platforms—or decline to control them. This is emerging as among the companies’ biggest challenges.»

I get it I (we) risk our lives for this country. I’m not saying we don’t deserve the pay we get: we do. I’m saying teachers watch your most valuable humans and spend more time with them a week than you may. Only to be undervalued/underpaid.

Wow…. What’s going on HERE? A “coalition of the willing”? Somebody is doing a nice job bending language to his purpose.
(I actually like this piece, even if I don’t quite trust it.)

Sorry, I can’t help you. It’s not my department’s problem and if I get involved then it will be.

I saw two foxes this morning. Someone on here (I can’t remember who) said that foxes are cat software running on dog hardware, and I’ve never forgotten that description. https://t.co/xoYGqiaRIZ
The U.S. Department of Justice sent an email to all immigration court employees (including judges) containing a link to an article on this site, which used racial and ethnic slurs to attack judges. Seems like the next step for a racist administration wanting to dehumanize people to me.
«Dare, the first white child born in 1587 in what would become the United States, has long been used as a symbol of white purity.»
Interesting. You’d think it’d be an old trick by now, though.
«3 billion people rely on cooking over open fires or primitive stoves. Most use wood. Women average 15 hours per week collecting firewood, subjecting themselves to sexual assault. Women and children become ill and die breathing cookstove smoke. Firewood harvesting causes deforestation. The black carbon emitted from these cookstoves is a major contributor to climate change.
Amazingly, the simple and free act of placing rocks in these cookstoves cuts firewood usage by a third and smoke is greatly reduced, too. Kevin McLean, Sun24’s president, says: “The women love using rocks in their cookstoves because they spend much less time collecting firewood and their family breathes much less smoke.”»

Uh huh.
«In mid-June, the company said it would idle two blast furnaces at its Great lakes and Gary Works plants, citing lower steel prices and softening demand.»
