there was no fanfare, no advance promise, he just knew what was right and did it. boom!
wouldn't it be great if the next democrat president followed suit?

The soy sauce packet in your takeout bag isn't soy sauce. The biggest maker, Kari-Out in New Jersey, lists water, salt, hydrolyzed soy and corn protein, caramel color and sodium benzoate. No fermentation, no brewing. It's made in a couple of days by boiling defatted soy meal in hydrochloric acid, neutralizing it, then adding color and corn syrup so it looks and tastes close enough.
A lot of the bottles on the grocery shelf are the same thing. Kikkoman and the Japanese government went to the UN food standards body years ago and asked that the chemical version not be allowed to use the name soy sauce. The hydrolyzed protein industry and the USDA pushed back and it stayed. The brewed ones say naturally brewed on the label. If the bottle doesn't say it, it isn't.
2 hours and 35 minutes after the UK announced a ban on goods from Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, NATS, the UK’s air traffic control provider, is experiencing a “technical issue” that's grounding all flights at the UK’s largest airports.

The real story here is that (a large number of) Sub-Saharan Africans are perfectly capable to complete Western degrees, yet are locked down the social hierarchy for no other reason than the immigration control

Reminder that it is quite difficult to hack a piece of paper. Nobody is gonna zero day a book on a shelf in your house, and if they are somehow motivated enough to steal it, you have bigger things to worry about then your facebook password leaking...
and mark ruffalo is right as hell bc why do military defense contractors want to be a part of the entertainment industry too?? and have a monopoly in what you watch??? you dont find that weird?????!!!!!!
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
People will act like this material doesn’t work, but there is nothing high tech or unproven about this.
We have had the capacity to scale bioplastics for decades. We just use petroplastics because oil corporations control governments.
