.@piersmorgan: Why didn't Kamala Harris call for unity after Trump's shooting?

@briantylercohen: 'I find it so bizarre that the onus is always on the Democrats to create unity. Where was everybody calling for unity when Trump was president? Remember, it was not the Democrats who laughed at Paul Pelosi being bludgeoned with a hammer. Who called for military tribunals for Liz Cheney. Who laughed off a kidnapping plot against Gov. Whitmer. Who called for General Milley to be executed. Who posted a baseball bat photo next to Alvin Bragg. That was DONALD TRUMP.

It's not the Democrats who've validated political violence as a tool in this country, and it shouldn't be on the Democrats to exclusively be the adults in the room.'

NEW: Australian mother throws her baby into the arms of a man as her last act on Earth after a maniac goes on a stabbing spree in an Australian mall.

Hero.

38-year-old Ash Good died on Saturday after throwing her baby into a bystander's arms as she bled to death.

Her baby, 9-month-old Harriet, was stabbed in the stomach and was rushed to the hospital thanks to Good's quick thinking.

"The mom got stabbed, and the mom came over with the baby and threw it at me, and I was holding the baby."

"I think the baby's fine. The mother, unfortunately, me and another lady, which were compressing, she started to have a lot of blood coming out of her mouth."

Six victims died in the stabbing spree at Sydney's Westfield Bondi Junction Shopping Center.

The baby is currently in the hospital in serious condition.

Today's mass strikes are the latest consequence of the DUP's deadlock.

However, the lack of an Assembly and Executive has had other consequences too.

Here are just a few of those 🧵

[Coeliac_UK @Coeliac_UK]

Today on ITV's @thismorning , coeliac disease was discussed during a phone in segment on the show. We are deeply concerned about the content and advice given to a caller attending a Christmas family event where all of the food will be gluten free to protect the health of a person with coeliac disease. We are actively following up with @ITV . You can read our open letter in the comments below, and will share any responses we receive.

In the meantime we ask you to contact This Morning to ask them to give an apology to our gluten free community on air for this damaging and inaccurate information, and to engage with Coeliac UK to ensure their information is accurate in future.

Wow.

Let’s get the institutions back up and running again. Not a minute longer should people go on suffering because of ransom politics 👇

Pale Blue Dot is a photo of Earth that was taken by the Voyager 1 space probe in 1990 from a distance of about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) as it was leaving our solar system. This is what Carl Sagan said about the photo:

"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor, and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”

So very true

Have you ever thought about this?

In 100 years like in 2123 we will all be buried with our relatives and friends.

Strangers will live in our homes we fought so hard to build, and they will own everything we have today. All our possessions will be unknown and unborn, including the car we spent a fortune on, and will probably be scrap, preferably in the hands of an unknown collector.

Our descendants will hardly or hardly know who we were, nor will they remember us. How many of us know our grandfather's father?

After we die, we will be remembered for a few more years, then we are just a portrait on someone's bookshelf, and a few years later our history, photos and deeds disappear in history's oblivion. We won't even be memories.

If we paused one day to analyse these questions, perhaps we would understand how ignorant and weak the dream to achieve it all was.

If we could only think about this, surely our approaches, our thoughts would change, we would be different people.

Always having more, no time for what's really valuable in this life. I'd change all this to live and enjoy the walks I've never taken, these hugs I didn't give, these kisses for our children and our loved ones, these jokes we didn't have time for. Those would certainly be the most beautiful moments to remember, after all they would fill our lives with joy.

And some of us waste it day after day with greed, selfishness and intolerance.

Every minute of life is priceless and will never be repeated, so take time to enjoy, be grateful for, and celebrate your existence.
