Husband + wife podcast exploring current events, culture, and human behavior. If you don't know what chisme means, look it up. @thechismewire everywhere.
Data centers are the next battlefield.
Usurping local resources. Water and electricity drained while citizens foot the bill.
When citizens say "no," captured politicians say "yes" and press forward.
All in service to Ai and the digital control grid.
If you can't put yourself in the place of the animal experiencing this horror, and imagine the absolute agony and helplessness, wondering "Why is this happening to me?" while taking your last breaths screaming and in full body pain...then what is wrong with you?
In China Yao Yuan 姚远
Former lawyer who tortured and killed over 4,000 cats by setting them on fire, skinning them alive, cutting off their limbs, and force feeding them their own flesh. An activist exposed Yao Yuan and was then physically assaulted by Yao Yuan’s dad.
James the ex-lab beagle is scared of a blueberry.
It's funny for a sec, then it hits you:
At Ridglan, new things meant pain.
We're teaching him that's no longer the case. And he makes progress every day!

🥹❤️ A new beginning. A new chance at life.
Tonight, we welcomed 30 beagles rescued from Ridglan Farms. 🐶🏡
These 30 beautiful souls are finally safe and spending their first night in warm, loving foster homes where they can begin to heal and experience the care they have always deserved. ❤️
Our veterinary team will carefully evaluate each dog before they are made available for adoption, ensuring they are ready for the next chapter of their lives. 🩺✨
Thank you to everyone who has supported this rescue through your shares, comments, donations, and endless love. Your kindness is changing lives. 🙏💖
🐾 We'll be sharing more heartwarming updates from their rescue journey very soon, so stay tuned. ❤️
I have been deeply traumatized since 4 years ago on Chinese social media DouYin( TikTok), when I unexpectedly saw a video showed bloodied cat being skinned alive filled with cat’s screaming of intense agony, it was a 40-minutes video, I was crying and trembling all over and felt nauseous, also another day I saw video of a kitten tied to a gas stove and roasting, constantly screaming with agony, while 4 Chinese teenagers around 12 years old laughing and enjoying, it filled me with fear and blood freezes. I can’t believe what kind of person would abuse cats like this, maybe it’s just an ordinary person hiding among me, smiling at me everyday. Then I’ve decided tracked it and found thousands of blood cruel cat torture videos on Chinese cat torture networks, they were established by Chinese young man and attract from primary school to university students. They use different way to abuse cats and sold it to make money. I was almost collapsed. Those kind of videos keep appearing before my eyes when I cook dinner or anytime , I don’t understand why in China such cruelty are allowed happening ? 😭why cats life is so lightly, this should not circulate and should not never happen, should not become a black market industry. With no any anti-animal cruelty laws to stop it in CHINA 🇨🇳, these cat abusers will only become more emboldened and rampant, every day every province, every city in China, day and night, massive stray cats in China are live in very dangerous environments, with cruelty videos spreading, more younger generations can see these cruel things and fall into the same deep fear as me. I hope Chinese government can enact laws to stop it @felineguardians@PhaedraXTeddy@initiumnews@catsareblessing@serpentza@MarioNawfal
Aloka is not just one dog. Aloka is every abandoned puppy shivering on the roadside, every injured soul crying silently in pain, every mother searching for food for her babies, and every old dog waiting for someone to show a little kindness before it's too late.
The message shared by these respected monks is profoundly beautiful: every dog is Aloka. Every life deserves to be seen, protected, and loved, regardless of where it was born or whether anyone knows its name.
Too often, we walk past hungry strays as if they are invisible. We celebrate compassion in words but fail to practice it when it matters most. The true measure of humanity is not how we treat those who can thank us, but how we care for those who have no voice at all.
Imagine living your entire life on the streets facing hunger, heat, cold, disease, accidents, cruelty, and loneliness yet still wagging your tail at the sight of a kind human. That is the resilience of a stray dog.
If Aloka's story moved your heart, let it change the way you look at every dog you meet. Feed one. Rescue one. Adopt one. Offer water. Show kindness. Speak up against cruelty.
Because every dog feels pain. Every dog longs for love. Every dog has a heart that beats with hope.
And every dog is Aloka.

Now we saved 2,000 beagles!!
Ridglan Farms is shutting down. And the pups are going free.
Every tear gas shot, every felony charge, every day in jail — it was all worth it.
To the thousand volunteers who risked your freedom to save the pups this year, and to the millions of people around the world who followed and poured out your care, I want to say:
Thank you.
We did it. ALL of us.
There are still 15,000+ beagles at MBR who need our help. We’re coming for them.
Let’s save them all!!!

Then have a budget signing ceremony to brag how you have balanced the budget eight consecutive years but never mentioning that it was done on the backs of the taxpayers
Still waiting for that first balanced budget that was accomplished without raising taxes to cover the budget deficit
I’ll be waiting a long time ………
8 of 8 Pritzker budgets were “balanced” with tax hikes on Illinois’ poor and middle class, when we already pay the highest combined state and local taxes in the nation.
Is this what “progressivism” is supposed to look like?
Illinois just signed the most aggressive bitcoin tax in the US.
Starting January 2027, the state will impose a 0.20% tax on the gross value of digital assets exchanged, transferred, or stored for customers.
Buy bitcoin? Taxed.
Transfer bitcoin? Taxed.
Hold with a custodian? Taxed.
No profit required. No capital gain. Just moving a digital asset triggers the tax.
Move $1M through a bank wire, ACH, or brokerage and Illinois takes nothing. Move that same $1M as a digital asset and the state takes $2,000.
There is no comparable tax on stocks, bonds, derivatives, bank deposits, or any traditional financial transaction anywhere in the country.
The message to every bitcoin company in Illinois is clear: leave.
At some point we're going to have to collectively acknowledge that this type of trauma is intentional and coordinated.
LAPD has plenty of crime to clean up, plenty of dogs to help save right on Skid Row.
Instead, they harass and kill innocents.
Police shoot & kill family dog—still wearing his custom Knicks jersey.
His mother & him were just celebrating the basketball win—neighbors called 911 to report a "domestic disturbance."
"He wasn’t baring his teeth, wasn’t growling, wasn’t aggressive—he wasn’t even barking," she said.
"The next thing I know, Jamison is lying on the ground... He’s my baby!"
Marie Marseille is a nurse originally from New York—her Golden Saint Berdoodle is named Jamison.
LAPD released an official statement saying the shooting "remains under investigation."
Incident occurred at the Jordan Condominiums in the Canoga Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
