When you say you need hope about climate change, what do you really need?
Maybe it's proof your actions matter.
Maybe it's permission to want a better future.
Maybe it's feeling less alone.
Your brain treats hope like a prediction. When reality doesn't match, hope breaks.

Imagination doesn't break.

Anti-abortion activists have been trying to convince the broader public that medication abortion is dangerous for years,
but their latest argument is a decades-old asinine conspiracy theory.
In a June 18 letter to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin,
25 House Republicans asked the agency to study the alleged
“byproducts” of Mifepristone
(the first medication administered in a medication abortion regimen)
in water systems.

AI has plugged into this cult to promise 10x-ing your action. But instead your will becomes subservient to the machine.

Even as McMahon has shrunk the Department of Education,
she’s operated in what she calls
“a parallel universe”
to radically shift how children will learn for years to come.…
