There are eerie parallels between what’s happening in Irkutsk and what happened in Wuhan in early 2020. Doctors claiming the government was hiding the extent of the spread. Masks being mandated. Schools being closed. Pay attention. Listen to independent journalists & locals:

Blumenthal: Tether is a crypto company that has a stablecoin known as USDT, and it is the major means of Iran avoiding and evading sanctions. What we’ve also exposed is that Cantor Fitzgerald has a major financial tie. Cantor Fitzgerald was owned by Howard Lutnick. It’s still run by his family.

My nearly life-sized pigeon sculpture, finally finished after sitting around for a year waiting for me to settle on how to glaze it! This one really has a certain charm in person. Original sold to a patron, but if this piece is enough of a hit then I'll consider doing another pigeon sculpt.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.
