Yeah bro it’s lit. We got a newly verified species that was the source of controversy for actual decades and still requires a lot of study. And we’re gonna sell it on the open market to a private bidder with no guarantee of it being accessible to research institutions. It’s lit.

Planting new trees doesn’t magically undo the destruction of an entire ecosystem. You cannot replace centuries of biodiversity with a few saplings. Companies that destroy our natural resources should face severe penalties, including permanent closure when warranted. We’ve reached a point where protecting the planet is treated as optional, and that needs to change.

Google did this to build a data center in Finland.
It was illegal, but they did it anyway.
Big Tech is out of control.

We are literally entering a dystopian timeline. 😤
We have all the resources and money to protect the remaining forests worldwide, yet rich companies/people are deciding to finish them all off for DATA CENTRES! 🤦🏻♂️🤬
Google illegally cleared an estimated 250,000 trees across 330 hectares of forest in Muhos, northern Finland, to prepare for a new AI data center before completing mandatory environmental impact assessments
And another 150,000 trees felled at Otanmäki

Don’t see myself topping this view for a while. Still can’t get over how gorgeous this hike was! I couldn’t have had better timing for the larches, and I get the hype now

They broke Eisenhower’s globe because they didn’t want to wait for a team of specialist historians to move it.
I cannot think of a more apt metaphor for Pete Hegseth’s DoD.

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, nobody should support this kind of deception.
They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas.
Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media.
Politics is broken.

Meta has suddenly suspended the No Kings Instagram account in the middle of the No Kings' national day of action.
This shocking censorship comes just weeks before the midterm election.

"What do I owe society?", asked the guy in the green.
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?”
Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

I want spooky season to start :(
You might have noticed that the rainy season is off to a slow start. In 81 years of records, it's Seattle's (Sea-Tac) 8th driest start for October thus far. If we stay dry through Wednesday as expected, we'll climb to 3rd.
