Just a reminder, Trump's own appointees stated the intel showed Iran was not close to having a nuclear weapon. Including this bootlicking operative.

Pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell would be a great way to convince the entire world that he is indeed a pedophile.

Donald Trump is doing exactly what Putin wants him to do - severely weaken the United States of America.
Christiane Amanpour@amanpour

Historian @TimothyDSnyder sums up a year of Trump choices and policies in one overall conceptual framework, which he calls “Superpower suicide.”

Keith is a three-year-old Anglo-Nubian goat in a field in Devon. Keith has opened 7 gates, occupied a barn roof for 11 consecutive days, cleared an entire knotweed stand worth £4,000 to remove chemically, eaten Steve's bindweed, been in the churchyard twice, been in the road an estimated 14 times, eaten the water heater instructions, been in Dave's kitchen (standing there, not eating anything, just standing), and filed the structural details of every fence on the farm into a memory that has never once been cleared. He has done all of this while also being the single most cost-effective conservation intervention on the property. These are not separate facts. They are the same fact. Keith does not distinguish between the work and the escape. The escape is work. The work is escape. The fence is a project. The project is completed. The project leads to the next project. The knotweed leads to the churchyard. The churchyard leads to the road. The road leads back to the east ditch. The east ditch was cleared in one season. There is a man named Steve who has filed twenty-nine formal complaints about Keith. Steve's bindweed is gone. Steve does not yet understand that these are the same story. Dave has £387 in gate receipts, a positive net outcome column on every row since entry seventeen, a churchyard booking for next month, and a corner post with a 4mm flex that Keith has known about since Margot's visit and has not yet acted on. Not yet. Keith is not done. Keith is never done. Keith is ten thousand years of Zagros Mountain goat compressed into a Devon field, and the fence between him and the rest of the world has always been a negotiating position rather than a boundary. Be ungovernable. Do the work. Leave the field better than you found it. The knotweed is at 6%. Keith is thinking.

Joe Biden spent 50 years in political office. Trump has spent 5. Trump has accomplished more in 10% of the time. Do you agree? A: Yes B: No

Give A Shit About Nature
Give A Shit About Nature@giveashitnature·
Studies show farmers who plant strips of wildflowers through their crops need less pesticide, and often get better yields. A Swiss study on winter wheat found that fields with wildflower strips had 40 to 53% fewer leaf beetle pests than fields without. Crop damage dropped 61%. The mechanism is simple. Wildflowers feed hoverflies, lacewings, parasitic wasps, ladybugs, and ground beetles. Those insects eat the aphids, beetle larvae, and caterpillars that farmers would otherwise spray for. A few meters of wildflowers hosts an unpaid pest control crew. In apple orchards where no insecticides had been used for five years, plots with wildflower alleyways had 9.2% damaged fruit. Control plots without flowers had 32.5%. The UK is now running a five-year trial across 15 farms placing 6-meter flower strips through the middle of fields, not just at the edges, because the beneficial insects can't reach the center of a large field otherwise. This works the same way in a backyard vegetable garden as it does on a commercial farm. Plant native flowering species near your tomatoes, beans, and squash. The pests still show up. The predators show up too, and they get there for free. Our fields were never supposed to be monoculture.

I grocery shop regularly as I'm sure many of you do, and I will just say, not in a partisan way, but just as John Q. Citizen, that food prices are INSANE right now and yet not getting nearly the coverage they did under Biden.

**IBM JUST EXECUTED 43,000 AMERICANS AND REPLACED THEM WITH 135,000 INDIANS MAKING $22K WHILE POSTING $62 BILLION IN REVENUE AND BRAGGING ABOUT "GLOBAL TALENT OPTIMIZATION"** 43,000 Americans making $150K median 135,000 Indians making $22K median Same fucking work. 85% cost reduction. Infinite greed. IBM calls it "geographic workforce rebalancing" I call it the systematic execution of the American tech worker They opened 3,866 positions in India this year while keeping US listings under 400 The math is simple: fire one American, hire six Indians, pocket $128K per swap CEO Arvind Krishna sits in New York making $29.1 million while orchestrating the largest offshore execution in tech history Sources saying other Fortune 500s are copying the exact playbook "Why pay Silicon Valley salaries when Bangalore delivers the same code for lunch money?" IBM's H-1B filings jumped 340% while their American headcount collapsed They're not just cutting costs. They're cutting countries. The American software engineer is being methodically replaced by someone who works for the cost of a used Honda Civic If you're still at a company with "global delivery centers" in your org chart, you're already dead You just don't know it yet

Meta just fired 8,000 people. Three hours after Microsoft asked 9,000 to leave. Meta won't name them until May 20. 27 days of not knowing if it's you. The memo: 'This is not an easy tradeoff.' Translation: we need money for AI more than you. In 2026 they strike twice a day.

The US is going to “loan” the UAE billions of dollars At zero interest to rebuild areas after the Iran war. A large chunk of this money will likely go To companies owned by Trump’s sons to complete Trump resorts in the area. We may never fully grasp the level of corruption and self dealing in this administration.

9,000 Microsoft employees got an email at lunch today. Take the money. Go home. The safest job in tech. Gone in an afternoon. Nobody called it a firing. They called it a retirement gift. This is 2026.

Los cuidadores del zoológico de Chapultepec llevan cuatro meses intentando atrapar a un gato naranja que se mete al recinto del tigre de Bengala a robarle la comida y el gato siempre gana. 😹🐾 Nadie sabe por dónde entra, nadie sabe a qué hora llega, pero la cámara del recinto lo graba tres o cuatro veces por semana apareciendo de la nada junto a la charola de carne cruda justo cuando el tigre se queda dormido después de comer la mitad. 😹 El gato pesa como cuatro kilos, el tigre pesa trescientos y el gato come de su plato como si le estuviera haciendo un favor. La primera vez que el tigre despertó y lo vio se quedó mirándolo con una confusión que según los cuidadores nunca le habían visto en seis años, como si no pudiera procesar que algo de ese tamaño tuviera ese nivel de atrevimiento. 😹😹 Intentaron cerrar los huecos de la reja pero el naranja encontró otro, pusieron trampa con atún y el gato se comió el atún y siguió de largo al recinto, le cambiaron el horario de comida al tigre y el gato también cambió el suyo. 🐾💛 Un cuidador que lleva veinte años ahí dice que en todo ese tiempo nunca vio a un animal entrar voluntariamente al espacio de un depredador tres veces más grande y salir caminando tranquilo con la panza llena. El tigre ya ni se levanta cuando lo ve, solo abre un ojo, lo mira comer, y vuelve a dormir como quien aceptó que hay batallas que no vale la pena pelear aunque las puedas ganar. 😹💛 El naranja sigue invicto y los cuidadores ya le pusieron nombre en el registro interno aunque oficialmente no existe. 😹

We may disagree on damn near everything under the sun, but I think it's safe to say a bipartisan issue is convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell: She should never, ever, ever, EVER receive a pardon. Am I right?

Gobsmacking statistic in this story: “While city pools and splash pads consume almost 2 million gallons of water over the course of a summer, a single Exxon plastics plant consumes 13 million gallons per day.”
Neena Satija@neenareports

NEW: Absent a biblical rainfall event this summer, Corpus Christi will be the first American city in modern history to run out of water. 💦 Schools & hospitals hope to drill wells. Lawns are dry. How will petrochemical plants handle it? We don’t know. kut.org/energy-environ…

Hey MAGA, Do you want your grandchildren to never have the chance to see a Polar Bear in their lifetime? Because that's what your stupid "Drill, baby drill" policies are doing. Driving animal species to extinction. And now, Trump will allow energy companies to kill them. 💔
