Sure, we can do this. Or we can actually do something truly useful for the common good and ban any #socialmedia platform that relies on mass #surveillance to serve targeted #ads no matter the age. In other words, we must have proper social media instead of #advertising companies masked as social media.

En la imagen, una joven con el cabello largo y oscuro se encuentra de espaldas, vestida con una blusa blanca y una falda roja con un patrón de puntos. Está de pie en un campo de hierba seca, con un cielo dramático de nubes grises y doradas en el fondo. La joven está flanqueada por tres marcos de cuadros de madera, dos a los lados y uno en el centro, que parecen ser puertas abiertas. El marco central, en el que se refleja la imagen de la joven, crea una ilusión de que ella está entrando en una escena diferente. La composición evoca una sensación de misterio y transición, con la joven como el centro de la escena.

Es sind nicht nur Juden, die unter der Laisser-faire-Politik von #Facebook zu leiden haben. Der Anstieg der Hassreden trifft ebenso sehr andere diskriminierte Gruppen. Doch Facebook ist weiter das beliebteste soziale Netzwerk, obwohl man dort mit der größten Wahrscheinlichkeit beleidigt wird. Die Ausbeutung von Affekten ist ein erfolgreiches Geschäftsmodell.

Watch live: #Trump & *#Health* Secy #RFKJr to speak soon on #DrugPrices.

Trump plans to sign a wide-reaching #ExecutiveOrder on Monday directing drugmakers to lower the prices of their #medicines to align w/other countries.

White House ofcls said the govt will give drugmakers price targets in the next 30 days, & will take further action to lower #prices if those companies do not make "significant progress" towards those goals within 6 months.

reuters.com/world/us-china-tar…

in reply to Nonilex

In his first term, #Trump was focused on ensuring that Americans got the lowest #drug #prices. Now, he seems much more concerned about making sure Europeans pay more.

Trump has still not described any specific legal mechanism for lowering #DrugPrices.

Trump claims prices could come down somewhere between 59% & 90%

in reply to Nonilex

🤣🤣#Trump said he came up with what he calls a new word: “equalize.” He said he uses it to describe what he wants the executive order to impact in terms of drug pricing.

Now #RFKJr is talking. He’s as bad as Trump.

RFKJr said Trump is telling the Europeans they have to raise the price they charge for drugs. So does that mean Trump isn’t so much lowering the cost for Americans but dictating what other countries charge to “equalize” costs?

Both #Trump & #RFKJr, the #HHS secretary, have been falsely claiming that #Democrats have done nothing about high #drug #prices. Democrats passed legislation to allow #Congress to negotiate on the price of some drugs in #Medicare during the #Biden administration.

In fact TV Dr Oz is now pointing to the #IRA [Inflation Reduction Act] which was the Biden bill.

in reply to Nonilex

#Trump is talking again.

The fact is this #ExecutiveOrder is meaningless.

It is correct that Americans pay substantially higher #prices for #drugs than peer nations. But that reality reflects the very different #legal rules governing #drug purchasing.

This order will not change that.

#law #medicine

in reply to Nonilex

#Trump is now talking about the new $400 million plane that #Qatar is just gifting him.

He starts off by complaining that the #ExecutiveOrder he signed for a new plane in January hasn’t resulted in anything.

#law #EmolumentsClause #corruption #influence

in reply to Nonilex

#Trump is now talking about how bewildering he finds the people in #Israel who want the bodies of their dead loved ones back from #Hamas in #Gaza. He keeps saying “they want back the dead bodies as much as if they are alive!” Completely confused by the concept. He says “maybe it has something to do with the religion or something I don’t know.”
in reply to Nonilex

Unreal. “White farmers are being brutally killed,” #Trump says of the #Afrikaners being brought to the #US as #refugees. He says he doesn’t care about “their race, their color, their height,” but that if it was the “other way around” — meaning Black farmers being harmed — it would be a news story, & this isn’t. He claims “it’s a genocide going on. But you people don’t want to write about it.”

He is lying. The assertions of mass kililngs are false.

#FactCheck #TrumpLies

in reply to Nonilex

#Trump tells an #ABC News reporter who presses him on ethical questions raised by accepting the nearly half-billion-dollar #Qatari luxury jet for free that she should be “embarrassed” for asking the question. He calls her “ABC fake news” & repeatedly bashes the network.

Trump says he could reject #Qatar’s offer of the free jetliner or simply say thanks for the gift. He then invokes a golf analogy suggesting that following rules when one doesn’t have to is foolish.

#Trump also claimed that a reduction in #drug #prices will be part of the big #congress #budget bill. Such a provision has not been included in any legislative language released by the #House or the #Senate.
in reply to Nonilex

#Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder includes pressuring foreign governments to pay more to #pharmaceutical companies for their #medications & expecting those companies to VOLUNTARILY🤣 lower their #prices in the #US.

He can't distinguish between real words and made-up ones.

He doesn't have words: "the fatshot drug."

I was with Shireen Abu Akleh when she was murdered on May 11, 2022. The Palestinian resistance in Jenin killed her murderer, but I find myself asking, was justice served, or did he escape accountability?

and here's here's a bit of natural ultramarine (aka lazurite, or lapis lazuli) from the Mardan-y-Char mine at Sar-e-Sang, Afghanistan, in the Hunterian Museum collection, Glasgow.

The intensity of this colour is pretty accurate - this is close to the "eye" grade of the most intense blue used for jewellery. Broken coarse crystals known as "lajuaat crystal" grade are still used for pigment production from this mine.

🇫🇷 Macron: Moscow has until tonight to show it wants peace. “If Russia is serious, it will agree to a ceasefire. If not — we must respond with tougher sanctions.” He added he’ll hold further talks today with Zelensky and EU leaders.


OK, I'm going to hammer on this one. Five days might not seem like much to get 700,000 signature, but I've seen petitions get to 1 million in a day to save baby seals, so why not banning conversion therapy.
We have 4 countries above the threshold, but even if you're in those, your signature can make a different to reach the million.
Aside from that, we are nearing the threshold in the following countries:
Belgium
Slovenia
The Netherlands
Denmark
Germany

This is too little, too late: there's no cargo heading for the USA from China at the moment and it'll take over a month for anything at all to arrive (even if it left tomorrow, which it won't, because the factories have either closed or are now committed to other markets). By the end of a 90 day pause goods *might* begin arriving again … if anyone in China trusts the USA not to hike tariffs again (which they obviously don't). So there are going to be shortages by and by.
