Scenes from the aftermath of Russia's ballistic missile strike on a university campus in Kyiv. Five students and staff were injured. That was no military target anywhere nearby. Russia's goal was to cripple the school, kill students and staff, and terrorize civilians.

Pete Hoekstra is blaming Canada for the upcoming losses in Michigan and Maine. C'mon peeps, we can do better than that. Let's take down a dozen MAGA states.

“Survey after survey has shown that business owners overestimate how many customers drive to their stores vs walking or biking. In a 2012 Los Angeles study, more than half of the store owners on the bike-laned part of the boulevard thought most of their customers drove. The actual number was 15%.”

businessinsider.comI read all the studies on the economic impact of bike lanes. Here's what I learned.Research proves that bike lanes are good for business. So why do so many stores and restaurants still oppose them?

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Yup! My Dad died when I was 14 so I decided I'd become a good christian and endeavoured to read the bible. It took almost a year to do so and by the end ... worst piece of literature ever written! So many hypocrisies and contradictions to be believable.

🔥 Over one year since the ceasefire agreement, more than 1,400 people have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, nearly two million still need shelter, not a single hospital is fully functioning, and 1.4 million face crisis-level hunger.

Over 294,250 families in Gaza don't have any sort of shelter that can protect them from winter storms. Available shelter supplies can reach just 18% of those in need, as the Israeli government is currently blocking 8,600 emergency shelter kits from entering Gaza.
