@elonmusk You should stick to making cars not international diplomacy. Don't sell out #Ukraine like it's one of your companies.
BTW, here's a pre-war video of @ZelenskyyUa in a Tesla at a McDonalds' drive-thru.

If a society can tolerate mobs killing an old dog who never hurt anyone, we must ask:
What comes next?
Mademoiselle deserved safety.
She deserved dignity.
She deserved better than what she got #matmazelicinadalet#JusticeForMademoiselle

It is sub-zero in Ankara.
These dogs are not in metro stations because they want to be they are there because humans abandoned them and failed to protect them.
Beating a senior dog to death for seeking warmth is cruel, illegal, and stomach-churning.

This didn’t happen in isolation.
Just weeks ago, a press article complained about stray dogs sheltering there, urging the municipality to take “necessary precautions.”
This is how words turn in to violence

It is alleged that metro workers beat Mademoiselle so badly that she was barely alive when kind people came to her aid
In her panic she became trapped in an escalator.
This is how her life ended.
This is cruel, evil brutality.

Her name was Mademoiselle.
She was old, gentle, and harmed no one.
She lived peacefully in Demetevler Metro Station, cared for by people who knew her.
Today, she is dead not by accident, but by violence.

@PhaedraXTeddy 9 years ago, Istanbul was the proud city where this film was set. Beautiful / masterful work. https://t.co/zAZScqKnge #cats https://t.co/RGgZk5wyYS
And guess what. American 🇺🇸 company @cloudflare headquartered in #SanFrancisco hosts a website for these Chinese 🇨🇳 animal haters, many of whom are minors in #China 🇨🇳. Why does American @Cloudflare choose to give illegal animal torture videos by minors a platform?

Condolences to their families and loved ones.
Murderers and terrorists must be punished.
💔 Desperately sad, in pain, exhausted, hungry, lonely - total & absolute despair 😢

We can’t keep looking away. 🐴🚫
For centuries, donkeys have been pushed past their limits, carrying heavy loads, working endless hours, and surviving without proper care. 💔
Across many regions, they still face exhausting labor in extreme conditions, often without enough food, water, or medical attention. 😔
These gentle souls are not tools. They deserve safety, respect, and a life free from suffering. 💚

Please pray for Layla! 💔
This sweet girl was found tied to a pole. We don’t know who or why, but we’re so grateful someone found her. She landed on the urgent list at the shelter because of severe skin issues, but a rescue stepped up and she’s now getting the medical care she needs.
I’ll post adoption info once she becomes available. 🐾
“He had just delivered the final verdict in a horrific animal cruelty case. But he couldn't go back to his chambers until he visited the one victim who wasn't in the courtroom.
Judge Martin Wallace was a 30-year veteran of the bench. He was known for being stern, fair, and almost impossible to rattle.
But the case of "Finn" had kept him awake at night.
It wasn't just neglect; it was a deliberate, malicious act. The dog had been found chained in an empty apartment after neighbors reported a smell. He had been left with no food or water for weeks. The evidence photos of the emaciated animal were something Judge Wallace couldn't shake.
Today, he had delivered the verdict, sentencing the dog's abuser to the maximum penalty allowed, his voice booming with cold anger in the courtroom.
But as he slammed his gavel, he felt no victory. He just felt the crushing weight of the dog's suffering.
He didn't go to his chambers. He didn't even take off his robes. He walked past his stunned staff and drove his own car to the county animal shelter.
A vet tech met him at the door. "He's very weak, Your Honor," she warned. "And he's terrified of everyone. We haven't been able to get him to respond to much."
She led him to the medical ward. Judge Wallace looked into the kennel and saw a frail, skeletal pit bull, who just stared blankly at the wall.
The judge unhooked the kennel door and slowly knelt on the concrete floor.
"Hey, buddy," he said softly. "I'm Martin. I'm the one who... I'm the one who heard your story."
The dog, who hadn't moved for anyone, slowly turned his head. He shakily got to his feet, all ribs and bones, and took a wobbly step forward.
Then, to the vet's astonishment, the dog crept into the judge's lap, let out a long sigh, and began to gently lick the tears from his face.
"Oh my... he can't get enough of you," the vet tech whispered.
Judge Wallace, the toughest man in the courthouse, wrapped his arms around the frail dog, his voice thick with emotion. "I can't get enough of him, either. Look at this face."
He buried his face in the dog's neck, not caring about the robe.
"You're safe now, pal," he choked out. "You're all right. It's all over."
Judge Wallace visited Finn every week during his recovery.
Two months later, Finn was finally cleared for adoption. The shelter was flooded with offers, but they all knew there was only one person he was going home with.
Judge Wallace signed the final papers, and the dog who had been left for dead walked out the front door, right into his new life.” Credit: Melissa Houska
