Just spent a few hours with middle school kids talking about pollution and censorship. They are smarter than most adults I’ve seen talking about either issue. Seriously. Listen to the kids.
Some good arguments to lower voting ages.

I'm not very impressed by the voting of current elders. A lot of: it was better in the past, it won't affect me anyway, suspicion of change because change is confusing, or false nostalgia for rose tinted times that never really existed.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
Maybe it's time for some policies that non-voters understand. Like making the ultra rich actually pay taxes again, and then investing those taxes in cheaper healthcare & presciprtions.

It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.

I gave #gemini pro 5 text logs of my workouts from my Hevy app. Simple Dumbbell kg x reps etc.
❌It added all 5 logs for total volume wrong.
✔️I manually calculated to check Hevy.
❌Spent 2hrs going thru logs with Gemini.

We've managed to make computers bad at basic maths tasks.
Not cool

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
The purpose of democracy is to protect us from the super rich, not give them additional power.
Oligarchs view you the same way megafarms view animals.

It's just about numbers and line items.
Cost of every single #NHS GP surgery, running costs, staff wages, equipment, supplies, utilities for England & Wales is 8.3bn a yr

Now people wonder why they can't get a GP appointment

#UK voted for destructive BS failed rightwing ideology that made a few more billionaires & fucked everyone else!
Hi, maybe some people will be butthurt at this, but frankly, get over it...

If you won't be part of the solution, at least stop deliberately being in the goddam way!

Quite a lot of humans won't give a crap about their food footprint, there have to be humans working hard to try & counterbalance

Is 300 char a baked in constraint forever?
Or will the character shackles get expanded one day?

It's so tedious to go back to so much editing removing all punctuation, all articles, swapping every AND for &, searching for emojis like flags etc instead of just typing words and (&) sentences normally
