They knew burning oil was making us sick and heating the planet โ€” but lied to keep doing it. They knew plastic could get into our bodies โ€” but increased plastic production >200X since 1950. There is no question Big Oil CEOs are mass murderers. The question is: Are Big Oil CEOs serial killers?

That's part of the grift. If he talks about gasoline, he's poking the big public wound. The farmers and truckers are more in the shadows. Plus, it was a way to cut back Russian sanctions and get American taxpayer dollars to Putin. He's a shitty, shitty, shithead, and I hate him.

Breaking News! Code: y-Axis Alert! Yesterday's Nino 3.4 preliminary sea-surface temperature anomaly set a new record high, at 3.48ยฐC above the 1991-2020 baseline. To clearly show this anomaly, the y-axis max was raised to 4.0ยฐC. Attention historians: this is gobsmackingly bananas.

Netanyahu denies that this Washington Post reporter, Heidi Levine, was attacked by Israeli settlers. She sustained: Four broken vertebrae Two broken ribs Four puncture wounds She was knocked to the ground and repeatedly beaten! She said that Palestinian youth saved her during the settler attack.

I will never understand why these people want to kill cyclists. Like, that's clearly what they want to do. And I just don't understand it.

Toronto advocates are putting their bodies on the line to protect a bike lane the province wants to rip out - and and to fight a wave of anti-bike lane sentiment that this writer warns is sweeping the whole continent. @usa.streetsblog.org

Alberta goes to the polls today, to decide whether the province should separate from Canada. The fact that it's even happening is nothing less than psychological warfare, waged by damn liars. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

The details donโ€™t really matter, whether itโ€™s Trump or Musk or some combination of the two behind the decision to hobble Ukraineโ€™s use of Starshield. The result is the same: Trump has now fully taken the side of Russia in its war on Ukraine. Itโ€™s as

This level of policing to make sure they can get rid of the bike lanes. But no policing power when it was the convoy. Yes, Toronto vs Ottawa, but it seems to me this level of policing only happens because the province made it happen.

They then called in a โ€œpublic orderโ€ unit and blocked off the whole street causing congestion. Apparently you need an overkill amount to intimidate people with a cane and wheelchair.

THREAD: Bloor West bike lane protest day 2 This thing that pissing me off the most is that Toronto Police are supposed to keep Torontonians safe. At least let the OPP do the province's dirty work. Why am I paying for the TPS to go against the cityโ€™s wishes?

Why isnโ€™t there an alternative 4 years into the war? These lessons will be extremely painful for anyone relying on the mood of someone whose dream is to catch the mood of the aggressor. I understand diplomacy, but I donโ€™t understand ignorance.
