1/ The Washington Post reports that international travel to the US from almost everywhere has collapsed by up to a third in some cases. It's a clear sign that foreign travellers are being repelled by Trump's rhetoric and policies, and is likely to cost the US billions. ⬇️

We are getting reports of HUNDREDS of dogs being turned into shelters because of the fires. We never needed fosters & adopters more than now. If you can foster or adopt in the LA area, please DM me. If you don't live in LA, please share this post. You never know who will see it.

This is the Columbia I remember. The Columbia community I was proud to be part of.

[Steven Donziger @SDonziger]

BREAKING: This brilliant speech yesterday by a Columbia professor on the cowardice of the university administration in calling in police to arrest students will be cited throughout history -– and will inspire generations of students for decades to come.

Columbia still on lockdown two days later.⤵️

France will always be the best country because of this.

Happy birthday, Serge Gainsbourg! In 1988, French children’s choir, Les Petits Chanteurs d’Asnières pay tribute to a very emotional Serge Gainsbourg with his song “Je suis venu te dire que je m’en vais,” live on TV.

Everyone please support Cool Beans this Christmas. Thank you. 😂

[Tess ➡️ AnthroCon @roughtess]

I think instead of gifts this christmas everyone should just support the most majestic creature in the ocean Cool Beans the shark

@svershbow It’s extremely accurate. When we adopted Luca he was an angel up until month three, at which point he decided to eat all our books (and a copy of our tax returns!) then returned to his angel self like 2 days later 😇
