I wish I had enough money to buy 25 acres without a clear idea of what to do with it.

Currently they have to destroy it. The museums want this to change, for obvious reasons.

But you're the one who assumed the commentator was massive hypocrite. You just imagined that they weren't lifting a finger to try and improve things. Nothing they said suggested anything about what they're doing concerning the environment.

It really doesn't.

You should be pedaling with the balls of your feet. Toe drag would only be an issue in a tight turn, but you can scrape your pedal doing that if you set your pedals wrong, so your toes don't matter much.

We need to run an exciting candidate. Their race doesn't matter. Elections these days are about getting your base excited and making the opponent's apathetic. AOC is exciting. While her being a minority woman will piss off far right voters, it won't be like it was with Hilary, who had decades of media attacks conditioning the right to absolutely despise her.

The dad looks like he's about to pelt his kid in the face with that football.

Ecosia is a German search engine company which donates 80% of its revenue to planting trees. They take Bing, reskin it, and spend the profits from advertising on planting trees. They're up to about 175,000,000 trees so far.

Edit: This is just a convenient way to turn something you do every day (use a search engine) into a force for good. It's a slow process, 1 tree ≈ 45 searches, but you were going to make those searches anyway, might as well plant trees! Think of it as the digital equivalent of buying local food.

 

A court used an app called Covenant Eyes to surveil the family of an Indiana man released on bond. Now he’s back in jail, and tech misuse may be to blame. The app flagged one of the family's devices as having accessed Pornhub even though it didn't, and this was the only evidence used to throw the man back in jail. They didn't even try to prove he was the one who caused the app to flag Pornhub as visited, they just assumed it was him. The article contains multiple levels of "oh my god our system is messed up."
