Every time we had a new tool, some people found unhealthy ways to use them:

social media made a bunch of people more lonely, angry, and self-hating,

video platforms made a bunch of people incapable of appreciating a great novel anymore,

the ability to connect with new people so easily made a bunch of people incapable of building long-term relationships and a thriving marriage anymore,

and it would be very funny and ironic if “unlimited intelligence” makes people incapable of thinking originally and independently anymore.

BUT, no money for healthcare!!

[AJ Punk @SilentSnow89]

As far as imports go, the USA gets:

85% of its potash
60% of its oil
50% of its aluminum
33% of its uranium
30% of its softwood lumber

From Canada.

Tell me how this means "we don't need anything Canada has."

The data behind this story doesn’t lie. Low encounters. Dropping crossings. A landscape that was already doing the job on its own — and they’re building a wall through it anyway.

@chiky_handlr @valleyangel777 THIS was the crap he was pulling in the 80’s while married to Ivana.

Just like #Epstein - he likes them YOUNG!

BTW: Tracy is the granddaughter & daughter to Hollywood royalty (Ozzie & Harriet Nelson, & rocker Rick Nelson) - the press ignored this during the Hillary election.

9-year-old Kade Lovell was registered for the 5K but was misdirected by a volunteer and ended up on the 10K course instead.

He finished the full 10K (6.2 miles) in about 48 minutes and 17 seconds, crossing the line first overall and beating the second-place adult runner (a 40-year-old) by nearly a minute.

Bottom line, if Democrats rigged elections Kamala would be President and the Republicans wouldn't control the House, Senate, AND the White House.

It doesn't even make sense.

DOGE didn't make a dent in the deficit, but it did bring back screwworm and enable a historically large new Ebola outbreak, so it's not like they didn't achieve *anything*

[Echo 🔆 @TheEcho13]

Women rarely ‘just end up’ with bare-minimum men. They are slowly convinced that asking for more makes them ungrateful.

By the time she is doing all the emotional and practical work, she thinks it’s love. She gets so used to betraying herself to keep the relationship alive that she forgets that this isn’t what love feels like.

BREAKING: THE WORLD TURNS ON THE TRUMPS! Over 100,000 Albanians flood the streets to STOP crooked @jaredkushner from turning their protected wetlands into a luxury resort for billionaires.

While Trump dismantles America's ocean monitoring systems and guts environmental protections at home, his son-in-law Jared Kushner is bulldozing protected wetlands in Albania to build a $4 billion luxury resort — and thousands of Albanians are in the streets trying to stop him.

The project, linked to Kushner's firm Affinity Partners, would cover 2.5 square kilometers of the protected Vjosa-Narta coastal landscape — home to flamingos, Mediterranean monk seals, and sea turtle nesting sites. The planned development includes roughly 10,000 hotel rooms and villas on protected Adriatic coastland that Albanian law was specifically designed to preserve.

In early May, excavators began clearing pine forests and dunes. Barbed-wire fences went up, cutting off locals and tourists from beaches they've used for generations. Then a video went viral showing private security guards dragging a peaceful protester along a cliff by force.

That was the spark. Thousands flooded the streets of Tirana for two consecutive days, chanting "Albania belongs to Albanians" and demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama, who has been facilitating the project through legislative changes to protected area laws passed in 2024 — changes that Albania's own anti-corruption prosecutors are now investigating.

SPAK, Albania's special anti-corruption prosecution office, has opened a formal probe into how Vjosa-Narta's protected status was quietly altered to make Kushner's resort possible. Two private security companies had their licenses revoked after the assault on protesters. Fifteen demonstrators have been charged. The local police chief was stripped of his duties.

This is the same Jared Kushner who received a $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund shortly after leaving the White House following Trump's first term. The same Kushner who has been leveraging Trump family connections into overseas deals across the Middle East and Europe,while his father-in-law runs American foreign policy.

Flamingos and monk seals don't have lobbyists. Protected coastlines don't make campaign contributions. But Kushner has a very famous father-in-law — and Albania's government apparently made the calculation that that was enough incentive to destroy their own country’s environment.

Now, Albanian citizens are saying otherwise. Loudly.
Please like and share this post everywhere if you support the Albanian citizens’ protests against Jared Kushner’s greedy desecration of their land and coastline.
