@ this entire website did u know it’s possible to make an informative post about a tragedy and/or national disaster without guilting and/or blaming your entire reader base for not posting about it when they PROBABLY simply haven’t heard about it?

It’s not that all the awful Americans on the American owned and run site hate Greece and Sweden and the rest of Europe that’s on fire and want to ignore them, it’s really not. We care, and when we find out information, we do share it and we do want to help. We’re just also really busy, dealing with

California is also on fire—yet again

Our primaries already occurring across the country and the dire need to get people voting to get the GOP ousted

The continuing daily breaking updates on the treason of the entire White House and the investigation for that, as well as the Cheeto in Chief himself meeting with his bff and telling the world how obviously our entire intelligence network is wrong

Trying to hold our nightmare government accountable for the citizens in Peurto Rico who are still suffering months after the hurricanes

711 children remaining in custody in the trumpcamps past the deadline for reuniting them with their families who have no documentation because the country never intended to return them and is currently trying to make their families pay all costs to return for saving their children after they were forcibly denied assulum and ejected from the country

A very real threat of an extremely anti-choice trashbag being named to the open Supreme Court seat in a bid to re-criminalize abortions so we can go back to back-alley arrangements and using phone chains

Actual Nazis running for office and marching in our streets and showing up at the funeral for the murdered Nia Wilson to just generally be fucking monsters

Guns now being legalized on 3D printing sharing networks, because we didn’t have enough problems with firearms

Yet another food-borne disease outbreak, and another, and an additional one, as more and more of our regulations get tossed out left and right

A gyno at USC finally is having lawsuits filed against him from sexually assaulting over 50 women over decades with the school that were covered up

The EPA has fucked us yet again, now by rolling back regulations on coal ash (which is Extremly Harmful, despite the simple name)

The White House is still continuing to try and bully journalists and have them removed from press briefings

Not only does Flint still not have clean water, additional warnings have just been announced for other areas of Michigan where their water has been deemed entirely unsafe for use

And like… this is just the shit from the last week or two that I can remember off the top of my head. We’re really tired, and constantly bombarded daily with Severely Awful Shit happening in our country as the conservative bloc does their damnedest to ruin not only the planet but also all of our lives for more more more money and power.
