Just heard an economist say that families that have a third child will now be better off.

They won’t. THEY’LL STILL HAVE THREE KIDS. Do you have any idea what’s that like? Insanity.

Did you know Trump has added 2.2 trillion to the national debt since taking office 10 months ago?

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.

Buy a book.

Any book, it doesn't matter which. The one you've been looking forward to, the one with the title that made you laugh, the weighty award-winner you've been meaning to get to. Whatever.

Treat yourself. Step away from it all. In this time of gross ignorance & madness, read something.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.

They are lying to us.

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Someone asked me a good question on here. How do we stop ICE from violating our constitutional rights. We don't. Our local elected officials do that job. Our Governor, or Sheriffs our mayors, Police. They stop ICE. With force if necessary. That's how you stop ICE from pulling us out of our homes.

I don’t consider ICE to be a law-enforcement organization. I consider them to be an organized crime syndicate. Nothing more, nothing less.

One of the most important things I’ve learned about building teams is that a star player with a bad attitude can sink the entire team.

It’s extremely rare that the brilliance of a “brilliant jerk” overcomes the damage that comes from them being a jerk.

An MP in Zimbabwe has called for the repeal of the country's "backwards" 1977 abortion law. He argued that safe abortion should be available to a wider range of Zimbabwean women, as it is currently restricted to a privileged few. Each year, 60,000 women die due to unsafe abortion.

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

#Indiana Legislators are rushing a special session on redistricting: House hearings expected Tues, Dec. 2; Senate hearings on Tues the 9th. They may not allow time for everyone to testify, or may try to shut public comment down altogether. Share your testimony here: secure.ngpvan.com/g2gLE0zNgEWK...
This isn’t normal redistricting after the census — it’s an early, mid-decade power grab to redraw Indiana’s Congressional maps years ahead of schedule so politicians can pick their voters instead of voters choosing their leaders.
