Two people have been killed in separate incidents of elephant attacks in Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri districts in India.
Officials should some action to protect citizens from such violent animal attacks.
#GagOrder Against #Trump Is Expanded to Stop Attacks on Judge’s Family
Donald Trump had in recent days targeted the daughter of Juan #Merchan, the judge overseeing his #criminal trial in Manhattan, in blistering social media posts.
“Defendant, in his opposition of April 1, 2024, desperately attempts to justify & explain away his #dangerous rhetoric by ‘turning the tables’ & blaming those he attacks typical of Trump to [#BlameTheVictim]. The arguments counsel makes are at best strained & at worst baseless misrepresentations which are uncorroborated & rely upon innuendo & exaggeration.
Keeping #dolphins, #orcas and other cetaceans in #captivity is cruel. Depriving them of the vast open spaces and social bonds that they would normally have in the wild, and confining them to small, concrete #tanks to perform tricks for dead fish is highly unethical for these complex marine mammals. No matter how sophisticated the enclosure, no man made facility can ever hope to replicate the wild world of dolphins and whales.
was in large part based on the fact that it became too #dangerous for the #actors to be in the water with the #dolphins. Obviously a 3-400 pound frustrated animal can cause serious injury to a human being.
The issue of using dolphins as a tool to obtain a feel-good experience is not one of #science, but of #ethics: It is inherently hypocritical to capture and confine dolphins — thereby destroying the quality of their lives — in an attempt to enhance our own.
@GottaLaff@atrupar Don't they realise that Trump and the other #CPAC speakers come across as insane maniacs? Or is that precisely the impression they want to give? These are very weird and #dangerous people, as well as being well funded and exceptionally well coordinated too. Quite frightening. #farright
"Ex-federal judge says Supreme Court has no ‘legitimate off-ramps’ to avoid Trump decision"
This is what it's ALL about - the marker for how over-the-top extreme today's Republican Party has become.
There are people who I may vehemently disagree with on many policy choices, but we still can agree with that this MAGA clusterfuck has finally gone far enough.
We're at a loss for words. A video circulating shows an elected MP - @wayne_long_sj@waynelongmp - confronting protestors who were just peacefully exercising their rights under the Canadian Charter. It's hard to fathom, but this isn't just any encounter. This MP singled out individuals, showering them with "Shame on you" accusations. And there's more; behind this MP, his secretary Jeanette Arsenault can be heard telling a person of color, "If you don't like Canada, go back to your home" – a disheartening sentiment that echoes xenophobic undertones. This is #Canada, where every voice has the right to be heard, not silenced and intimidated. It gets worse. Imagine, an MP allegedly doxxing a person of color – spreading dangerous misinformation, putting their safety at risk. That's not accountability; that's harassment. Now, take a moment. Imagine a Palestinian Muslim, a person who's already suffered unimaginable loss, with 55 family members killed in the ongoing war in Gaza, including 10 close cousins. That individual also faced this MP's baseless shaming and doxxing. This is about human respect, which seems to be forgotten here. This is unacceptable. The leader in question must be held answerable for these racist and irresponsible acts. These actions aren't just about the individual they target but about the larger picture they paint; they contribute to misleading narratives about the Palestinian community and their supporters in Canada.
The #HospitalAppealBoard has found that Dr. Theresa Szezepaniak's #refusal of the shot in 2021 amounted to neglect of her obligations as a #hospitalist at #RoyalInlandHospital & the decision to take action on her privileges was appropriate.
Looking down from above Garelochhead at the end of the loch... Its one of the most #dangerous parts of #Scotland
where the "Trident" subs are maintained... We don't want or need Trident in #Scotland...
Challenge accepted: To all professionals in the television/film world, join the challenge to post a photo of you in your job. Just a picture, no description. The goal is to flood social media with our profession and raise awareness of the current struggles.
I take solid strong personal stances because I think #ambiguity is a tool for cowards(and politicians). I'm #autistic & don't like shady ambiguity. I can smell that air of ambiguous deception, miles away.
Ambiguity is most beloved by the dishonest who enjoy lying, via omission games.
