Jeffries: "It's perplexing to us that Rs refuse to spend a dime to protect the healthcare of the American people, but somehow the Trump admin found $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina in ways that are also going to continue to hurt our soybean farmers in Iowa & the Midwest"

Our girl knows how to stay comfy, hey?

A Tesla executive is leading Australia’s R&D review. That’s not OK. Public roles should serve the people – not billionaires. Add your name to demand Denholm’s resignation and new integrity laws: getup.to/EeDwtaaJSN1YfL

Hi @moudhy.bsky.social I have a mystery object that nobody knows about. Seems to be very old. Maybe Assyrian? Can you help identify it? The statuette is about a hand high
A hand sized terracotta (?) statuette of a seated weird figure with long hair, prominent nose and beard. Looks like ritual markings around his neck like a collar.
