How about we do something real that actually helps Mexico solve its problems, such as figuring out how to neutralize the murder squads that these migrants are fleeing from--especially by shutting down the weapons trade both at home and abroad
US President Donald Trump has announced tariffs on all goods coming from Mexico, demanding the country curb illegal immigration into the US

What to expect in the multi-billion dollar lawsuit brought by the US state of Oklahoma against Johnson & Johnson, the drug manufacturer, over the opioid crisis https://t.co/cOkhr2yjSj
@novapbs@PBS Yes 1) leave the old growth intact and 2) don't let huge neighborhoods of McMansions encroach on shrinking forests that should be protected from people entirely
Reminds me country/city or small/large town comparisons these days among humans. Hardships, isolation and scarcity breed more cooperation in social animals?
Wolves are more prosocial than dogs, a touchscreen experiment shows, supporting hypotheses that prosocial behaviors seen in pet dogs can be traced to ancestral traits https://t.co/9Rb1dK7B36
Alberto Curamil organized his indigenous community to stop the construction of two hydroelectric projects on the Cautín River in Chile. In 2018, he was arrested and jailed—because of his activism, sources believe—and remains in jail today. https://t.co/vqWWbYVOcS #GoldmanPrize30
@JohnMuirProject@highcountrynews Huge old growth trees/forests are naturally fire resistant--otherwise there wouldn't be any. Unfortunately, they are not resistant to greedy aholes and mindless corps chopping them all down

@novapbs As someone who has never mistakenly impregnated someone, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say these are going to be just as faulty as the judgement of dudes running around with raging unconscious instincts to spread their genes
@ratarataratara1 @novapbs Sounds no more weird than what the female pills do. Somewhere in my childhood I remember a "drugs are not the answer" message ? Why not just vasectomize at birth 🥇
@novapbs Chemical nation. I think I'll stick with the condoms, vasectomy, or even maybe even stop recreationally pretending to procreate. Sorry pharma revenues
@upulie Surprisingly few people living outside of rentboxes Sydney. Criminalisation of various acts of transience? Efficiency of relocations to countryside jails or civil pensionable towns? The whole place used to abide by more flexible Aboriginal concepts of living and land boundaries
@bethconnolly20 Go after the biggest individual profitmakers and dealers (i.e. companies and shareholders getting rich off the product?) #WarOnDrugs 📈📉
"The last time I went back to my Country in the Snowy Mountains, I noticed tree after tree felled, chopped down seemingly without thought.
