Radfems claiming that online harassment is akin to terrorism when they’ve never experienced any warfare. In the real world, actual women are being punished by being WHIPPED for being raped and yet these fucking women expend their energy on complaining about video games. Yes, much feminism indeed.

The National Climate Assessment made it clear that we need to act now if we want to avoid the worst of climate change.
The Toxic Brew in Our Yards (NY Times)
The United States Fish and Wildlife Service says homeowners use up to 10 times more chemicals per acre than farmers do. Some of these chemicals rub off on children or pets, but most are washed with rainwater into our streams, lakes and rivers or are absorbed into our groundwater. These are the sources of our drinking water, and tests show these chemicals are indeed contaminating our water supply.

Plastic is polluting our planet’s environment. Instead of biodegrading, it photodegrades – breaking down under exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays, into smaller and smaller pieces that persist in the ocean, absorb toxins, and enter our food chain through fish, sea birds and other marine life. They can mistake its pieces for food, often with fatal results.
It’s urgent to raise awareness about plastic pollution and reduce the use of it. Here are some ways we can all help to keep plastic out of the (marine) environment:
- Choose cloth bags and metal or glass bottles instead of plastic to reuse when it comes to shopping bags and bottled water.
- Reduce everyday plastics such as sandwich bags and juice cartons by replacing them with a reusable lunch bag/box.
- Recycle. If you must use plastic, try to choose #1 (PETE) or #2 (HDPE), which are the most commonly recycled plastics. Avoid plastic bags and polystyrene foam as both typically have very low recycling rates.
- Seek out alternatives to the plastic items that you rely on.
- Spread the word.
