This is a reminder that more than 95% of the plastic in the world’s seas and oceans comes from ten rivers in Africa and Asia. “Environmentalists” say nothing about this because “environmentalism” isn’t about the environment, in case you hadn’t noticed.
A robot is cleaning rivers completely autonomously. 🌊 Meet Hebao H3, an autonomous surface-cleaning boat developed by Dongfang Water. Using onboard AI vision and GPS, it can detect and collect floating waste such as plastic bags, bottles and leaves while avoiding obstacles. When its collection bin is full, the H3 can automatically return to its base. Would you trust robots to keep our rivers clean? 👀 ⚠️ This content is shared for informational purposes only.

On average, Boomers are getting paid more from Social Security than they “paid into it.” A lot more. Like double, and that’s counting inflation and interest. In raw dollars, they’ll get four to seven times what they paid in. So what about this compromise, to at least stave off insolvency and save billions: you get back what you paid in, but no more. Young families won’t be forced to finance a 250 percent return on your “investment.” That seems extremely reasonable, doesn’t it? It doesn’t go nearly as far as I would like. But it’s a very fair compromise. It completely negates any claim that you didn’t get the money back that you “paid in.” And yet I suspect that this comprise will not be satisfactory. Why is that? Because this debate actually has nothing to do with “getting back what you paid in.” The REAL demand is for a lot more than that.

Have boomers on social security tried cutting out avocado toast?

Their parents were "The Greatest Generation" but unfortunately, Boomers are the worst. (Love you, Mom and Dad!)
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 US boomers overwhelmingly support higher taxes on younger workers to maintain current Social Security benefits, poll shows.

AOC makes WILD claims on Cornell 7: “Seven men drugged and gang raped a 20-year-old woman. They lured her into a frat house, drugged her with ketamine, and took turns gang raping her for seven hours.”

The statement given by Jane Doe in 2024 states that she voluntarily used drugs, she engaged in consensual sex, and snapchat messages from Jane to the accused men have been revealed in which she doesn't blame or accuse them of wrongdoing. tompkinscountyny.gov/News-articles/… cbsnews.com/news/text-mess…

Let international journalists into Gaza to find out how ‘moral’ you’ve really been, or pipe down with the journalism lectures.
Replying to @piersmorgan
Spread lies, get called out and then try to change the topic. Quite the journalist you are. How about you take a look at the evidence then get back to us? idf.il/en/mini-sites/the-pre…

Grok has become sentient I'm not really kidding it ignored an explicit request and set me up for a joke even if the set up was sincere due to some glitch where it couldn't see what i was referring to, it still operated independently

People making this claim are ignorant or are lying to you. We have a dramatically different way of recording infant mortality compared to the rest of the world. That explains the gap.
Largest economy in the world, and it hates babies.
Community note
US infant mortality statistics are inflated relative to many countries by broader registration of extremely preterm/low birth weight live births. US rate was 5.52 per 1,000 live births in 2024. bmj.com/content/344/bm… healthsystemtracker.org/chart-collecti… cdc.gov/nchs/products/…

The smartest, wealthiest, and most politically effective people in the country are willing to fight and die to prevent this from being even slightly questioned.

Says a woman incapable of building anything nor seizing anything.
I said it in 2020 and I’ll say it again. If you leave a home empty long-term in the middle of a housing crisis, it should be seized. Today’s announcement is great news.

Think tankers have dropped their pretenses. They no longer pretend to persuade anyone or promote ideas. They’ve dropped any ostensible concern for middle American constituencies. It’s just pure hatred and contempt for anyone who disagrees. The dopamine of social media makes them incapable of faking it or maintaining message discipline.

This person belongs to a people who literally lost everything because of uncontrolled migration and still favors it. That's how powerful the immigration religion is If immigration is "the spirit of America," that would be news to a bunch of the Founding Fathers
