90%+ of Americans -- Ds and Rs alike -- agree it's wrong to treat animals this way.
State ballot measures to ban this cruelty have won easily, from CA to FL.
Now pork industry lobbyists are pushing Congress to wipe out these state bans in the Farm Bill. They must be stopped.
@dotMudge Hiya from someone in the same Stripe start-class! Wondering if I could get your take on something. Have been doing some digging recently on election security https://t.co/6Xj923e6hX
@jhalderm Hi, I was just watching your Dec interview w/ MilesO'Brien. Not sure I understand why large numbers are harder to fake, if your software can get past the paper-audit threshold. Thought you might like my write-up here: https://t.co/6Xj923e6hX Would love your thoughts!
A new post! Here I dive deep into the context & data behind Election Truth Alliance's research on the 2024 for election. TL;DR the swing state votes look a little fishy. https://t.co/6Xj923e6hX #VerifyTheVote#SomethingIsWrong2024
@HackingButLegal Hi 👋. Wondering if you've heard of the work Election Truth Alliance is doing. Top-notch investigation into election security & possible fraud from the 2024. I'm going to put a recap on https://t.co/RT4l984lhf soon. Wondering if you might want to collaborate
@jgebbia@bchesky@nathanblec Loving my thanksgiving my AirBnB. Except for one thing! Uber has that button to request just EV-rides. Why can't I pick only homes w/o fossil fuels on AirBnB and show my support? Would be 💪💪
US turkey factory farms accidentally kill 5-12% of their birds before slaughter, per industry stats.
That's twice the rate of better-run German turkey farms.
But don't worry: the US turkey industry shares your concern about this ... loss of "potential product market value"
There is no animal closer to a dog than the turkey–and yet few will mourn the 46 million slaughtered this Thanksgiving. Turkeys will sit in your lap and beg you for belly scratches.
But this is just one of many amazing things about the common turkey.
For example, did you know that wild turkeys can fly? Unlike their domesticated cousins, who have been selectively bred to grow massive breasts, turkeys in the wild can fly up to 50 mph.
They also can speak, with over 20 distinct vocalizations, including a happy purr that’s similar to a cat’s.
But the most remarkable thing about the turkey is something they share with all sentient beings, including humans. They can feel. And at sanctuaries across the nation, we are celebrating Thanksgiving by making friends with turkeys, not eating them. #Thanksgiving #Turkey
BREAKING: Donald Trump’s rallies are going so poorly that Kamala Harris just played a highlight reel at her rally tonight. Retweet so everyone sees this hilarious moment.
"In my opinion, there’s one clear candidate for the biggest moral mistake that humanity is currently making: factory farming."
@80000Hours' new profile on factory farming is one of the best overviews I've read on the topic. H/t @bellaforristal

A Spanish company is building a one-million octopus factory farm, while claiming there’s “no scientifically validated knowledge” of octopus intelligence. Here’s why they’re wrong. #Octopus#Farm
