I'm seeing reports of #Israel using #BunkerBombs, but did you know that #DepletedUranium is often used in those bombs?

"Often, these types of bombs use depleted #uranium in their casing, similar to certain shells, which enhances their strength. While this does not make them #nuclear weapons, it does disperse #radioactive contamination at the impact site, which can be felt in an area of several meters, at low levels."

LAist: Apartment owners can apply for the first phase of rebates, and the second phase for single-family homeowners will open in coming weeks. laist.com/news/climate-environ…


If you know anyone who runs a low or middle income apartment building who is looking after their tenants, new rebates available for heat pump water heaters/induction ovens/stoves, etc.

"This first round applies to low- and middle-income apartment buildings with five or more units. For a building to qualify, more than half of the units need to have tenants who are at or below 150% of the area median income. "

“Hi, I’m Mardi, and I’m your neighbor.”

Incredible organizers like Mardi are using our groundbreaking GOTV tool to reach Arizona voters who are at risk of staying home: “Devolites is under the helm of Indivisible, a national progressive organizing group. And she is one of thousands of canvassers across Arizona, putting sweat equity into reaching voters far outside the traditional Democratic Party.” notus.org/harris-2024/kamala-h…





Going nuclear, fusion could reduce emissions, increase security [Advocacy Lab Content]: For its proponents, the lesser-known nuclear process – fusion - could bring a new era of clean and secure energy to Europe. For its detractors, it’s an expensive distraction. dlvr.it/TF7s81?utm_source=dlvr…

Not counting any chickens before they are hatched. Just raising money to make sure Harris for President has every last dollar to put toward GOTV and legal protections for ballot access.

has the campaign acknowledged this amazing effort? Is she even aware of this campaign?
in reply to Thomas Lee ✅

@DoctorDNS It has been acknowledged. Whether Harris personally is aware, I have no idea.

@qruyant With pain it is rather control over the pain. Or over the source of the pain. In both cases the problem is a lack of freedom.
in reply to Blender Dumbass ( J.Y.Amihud )

sometimes you cast the problem as lack of freedom, sometimes the lack of freedom concerns our ability to remove the problem. This is an ambiguous account that allows you to mention freedom come what may, but it's not informative. Here's my theory: a problem is a failure of a state of affairs to comply with norms or desires. This is related to freedom only insofar as freedom is generally desirable, but this link is inessential to the nature of problems.
