George Takei :verified: 🏳️🌈🖖🏽<p>If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.</p>

McNadoMD<p>Hey assholes — I see a miscarriage most shifts. Some days I see two or three. They happen ALL THE TIME. </p><p>Stop fucking assuming every woman who loses a pregnancy is aborting it intentionally. First off, they probably aren’t. Second, it’s none of your goddamn motherfucking business. Third, if you’re so sure these are all humans, give the mom some fucking space to process the loss. </p><p>Buncha fucking guys whose wives never talk to them about the miscarriages they have had. Says a lot.</p>

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:<p>Dear young parents. My kids are in their 20s. You know what impresses them most? What they keep on asking about? The stories of my political activism. How I joined protests when I was their age and even younger. How I organised protests and political influence when they were still shitting their diapers. This is why they are active too. Why they are alert when things change. So here's my advice to you, young parents: protest. Get out. Your kids will be proud of you and will become active too.</p>

Meanwhile in Canada<p>Little known fact:</p><p>The USA uses potash on 95% of their crops</p><p>80% of the potash they use comes from Canada. </p><p>There is no viable substitute for potash.</p><p>The USA imports 6 million tons from Canada every year.</p><p>Trump is going to decimate the USA's farmers and agriculture sector with his idiotic trade war.</p>
Prof. Sam Lawler<p>Just talked to a student who was completely freaking out about the final project presentation, to the point of having a panic attack. I gently pointed out that since the final project isn't a huge part of the grade (15%) and it's not a required course component, they can just NOT DO IT, and still pass the class. This had never occurred to them, and they were SO relieved.</p><p>A totally undervalued part of education is learning what things just aren't worth your time/effort, and walking away.</p>

Aral Balkan<p>“‘Shame on you,’ said Microsoft employee Ibtihal Aboussad, speaking directly to Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman. ‘You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide. Stop using AI for genocide in our region. You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate when Microsoft is killing children.
