How far have we fallen when it comes to basic public health? In 2020 our efforts kept Covid cases down, children were protected, and we ended a strain of the flu, 6 years later and we have brought back measles, Long Covid is the #1 chronic childhood illness, and Covid is raging yet again. This won’t just work itself out, it will just get worse.

I know we are running out of time. But I cannot look at this dog, after everything he has already survived, and stop trying now.💔💔💔💔💔💔 So I’m going to keep sharing him. I’m going to keep asking. I’m going to keep hoping that somewhere out there is one person, one foster, one rescue, one impossible yes that changes how this story ends.🙏🙏 Kraven deserves the chance to know what a safe home feels like.

STEVE PRICE: If you needed any further proof that Anthony Albanese is the worst Prime Minister in living memory, his latest trip to New York delivered it in spades. Our nation is headed by a glass-jawed Sir Les Patterson figure but without the humour > bit.ly/3TRVEjo

URGENT SENIOR IN BARROW COUNTY, GA‼️ This is my second time posting Apollo, and unfortunately, the shelter is starting to take a toll on him‼️💔💔He’s pacing more in his kennel and just doesn’t seem as happy as he was when I first met him. 💔I really love Apollo. He’s what I call my gentle giant. He’s 8 years old, walks perfectly on leash, and truly just wants to be loved. When I take him out, he’s happiest standing beside me while I sit there and pet him.💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏 Then I have to put him back, and that part is getting harder.💔 Apollo spent eight years as someone’s dog before being surrendered following an incident that was described as protective rather than aggressive.👍 I also spoke with his owner’s girlfriend, who told me he previously lived with dogs and cats and did well with them, although that is not included in his official shelter notes. The boyfriend’s dad did not like Apollo from the beginning and was trying to get him out.😭 Reality is the shelter is FULL, and Apollo is showing us that he’s struggling.‼️He’s a senior who just wants someone beside him. I really don’t want to watch this sweet boy become a different dog because he spent too long waiting in a kennel. 🤍Please share Apollo🙏🙏🙏🙏 Barrow County Animal Services 616 Barrow Park Court Winder, GA 30680 Phone: 770-307-3012 [email protected]

I will never forget when someone I know well - someone who openly acknowledges that he has lasting damage from Covid - said to me a couple of years ago, 'I know I should wear a mask but I can't stand people looking at me'.
Replying to @SteveTheBookGuy
So weird though. I know people who are fully aware of Covid damage. They still tell me they would literally rather die early than wear a mask in public. Social acceptance used to be literally essential risk to immediate survival. It’s a very very strong instinct.

This Is as Un-American as It Gets Only a TRAITOR to his own office would hang his own predecessor as a punchline on the walls of the people's house and then have the White House caption it with a laughing emoji: "This is the autopen… it's Biden." 🤣 That isn't politics. That's a toddler defacing the country and daring you to clap. If you can look at that and feel pride instead of shame, you're not defending America. You're kneeling to a demented narcissist.

When I retired from chess to oppose the rising dictatorship of Putin two decades ago, I was told that politics wasn't like chess, that there was no black and white. This is what evil wants you to believe.
We have heard, all our lives, "There is no black-and-white. Don't be simplistic. There is only gray." This is not necessarily so. nytimes.com/2026/09/25/world…

Since 2015, the UN has passed 188 resolutions condemning Israel. That's more than twice as many as against the rest of the world combined—Russia, China, Iran, and Venezuela included. Yet diplomats sat politely through a speech from Iran, a regime that has killed thousands of its own citizens and still persecutes them. It's not about human rights. It's blatant anti-Israel bias.
"If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now." ⠀ Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opens his address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York with a sharp rebuke as delegates walk out of the hall in protest of his speech.

URGENT IN GWINNETT COUNTY, GA‼️ 🚨⌛️IN ALL THE URGENCY, I DON’T WANT US TO MISS LOWELL, HE’S BEEN WAITING TOO…🥺 💔How can so much be written on a little dog’s face without him ever saying a word? 💔Lowell received his plea from the shelter last week...and with so many dogs currently carrying urgent deadlines, I don’t want this little guy to quietly disappear into the background his time is running out..⏰ He is such a little dog, barely 15lbs‼️ a soft gentle Terrier mix with a coat that tells a much harder story than we can imagine. His little face is quietly disarming, almost as though you’re looking at a dog twice his age, weathered by circumstances that have clearly taken their toll💔💔💔💔💔 Lowell came into the shelter as a stray with no microchip and no one looking for him, carrying a chronic skin condition that had clearly made life uncomfortable for quite some time. Much of his hair is gone, his skin is scabbed and irritated, his ears were inflamed and even his little nails had grown severely long. 😞It is difficult to look at him without wondering how long he had been living like that before someone finally picked him up.💔 Thankfully, Lowell is being treated now and is already seeing improvement!! 👍His ears are getting better👍his nails have been trimmed 👍and his skin is finally receiving the care it needs to settle the inflammation and itching👍 The vets do want to give his skin more time to heal before he is neutered, so he just needs a little time before the next stage of his care can begin. That’s really the part that matters now…His body has been uncomfortable for long enough. Now he needs the chance to settle into being comfortable again, with someone willing to keep up with his treatment and give his skin the time it needs to heal. ❤️‍🩹Let’s imagine the day when the irritation has subsided and the hair begins to return, when those ears are healthy and his body no longer demands so much of his attention, because somewhere in that process Lowell may begin to look less like the dog who arrived at the shelter and more like the 4yr old little Terrier he has always been beneath all of this. There may be a completely different expression waiting for us once he is comfortable, a different way of carrying himself, little parts of a personality that are difficult to glimpse while so much of his day is occupied by being itchy and uncomfortable. 👉Lowell is available for rescue and the shelter can also place him in a foster-to-adopt home, where he can begin healing with a family while the shelter continues to manage and cover his care, with the commitment to adopt once he is ready. If you are interested in fostering Lowell through a rescue or fostering-to-adopt through the shelter, please reach out and we can help connect you with the appropriate process. 👉If you know a rescue or foster who might be able to take him, please send this to them. If you cannot take him yourself, sharing him may be the thing that puts his photograph in front of the person who can. 👉I don’t want Lowell to spend the next part of his life being defined by the condition he arrived with. I want to see what happens when his body finally has the opportunity to catch up with the little dog he has been all along. ❤️ 💰 PLEDGE FOR LOWELL If you cannot rescue Lowell yourself, you can still help by pledging toward his care. Pledges help give a rescue some financial support for the veterinary care he will need and are honored only if a rescue pulls Lowell and freedom photos are provided. forms.gle/HcrvzLWCw7wGVTke6 💔Lowell ID #119421💔 Gwinnett County Animal Shelter 884 Winder Highway Lawrenceville, GA 30045 RESCUE: 678-245-2447 [email protected] FOSTER: 678-226-7225 [email protected]

The Liberal and Nationals Coalition will introduce a Scrap Net Zero Bill into Parliament. Our Scrap Net Zero Bill will: - unleash all Australian energy resources (coal, oil, gas, uranium and renewables) to lower energy prices, - end all of Labor's carbon taxes that are costing us manufacturing jobs and pushing up the price of new cars, - stop the large scale roll out of wind and solar that is damaging our environment, destroying farmland and locking up large offshore areas from fishing, and - plan our energy grid so as to deliver YOU the lowest possible energy prices.

If Macklemore really wants to show solidarity with Palestinians he should perform at this 22,000 capacity venue in the Palestinian city Rawabi, in the West Bank, which I’ve visited twice (this is my photo). It’s the biggest open air venue of its sort in the Middle East and hosts international acts. And since he’s such a big advocate for gay people he should definitely sing “Same Love”. He could even replicate his 2014 Grammy’s performance when a bunch of same sex couples got married.
Macklemore has announced the "Free Palestine" tour after he was dropped from Ed Sheeran's U.S. concerts for making speeches supporting Palestine. The tour includes three shows set for Dublin (Oct. 26), Paris (Oct. 29) and London (Oct. 30). All ticket sales and proceeds from the concerts will benefit organizations supporting Palestine. "If these last couple of weeks have shown us anything, it’s that something has shifted over the last three years,. There has been a collective awakening around Palestinian liberation, the power of billionaires that try to censor that call, and what we expect from artists right now," says Macklemore. "It’s 2026. Being apolitical during a genocide doesn’t work anymore. People are asking artists to show up, educate themselves and be in community. To use the stage for more than entertainment. To push back when the call for a Free Palestine is met with attempts to silence it... What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention." wp.me/pc8uak-1lHNwk
