Joe Biden and Mayorkas should burn in hell for this. Unspeakably disgusting: Two dozen struggling homeless veterans have been booted from upstate hotels to make room for illegal migrants nypost.com/2023/05/12/homele…

26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK. #Uvalde

The clever people at @NASA have created this deceptively simple yet highly effective data visualisation showing monthly global temperatures between 1880-2021. Watch until the end... Learn more here - svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4975 #ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis #climate

A non-stick pan is a life lesson in decay & disappointment because no matter how promisingly it starts off, it will always loses its non-stick properties over time (not to mention the health risks of PTFE). By contrast, cast iron starts off unpromising but gets better each time.
