Stop treating Ukraine's resistance as the obstacle to peace. Start treating russia's occupation as the obstacle to peace.

The Ending Importation of Russian Oil Act of 2022 prohibits the import of diesel into the United States unless the president submits to Congress a certification that Russia has agreed to withdraw from Ukraine, recognized Ukraine's sovereignty, and poses no threat to NATO. How is this consistent with the law?
Today, at President Trump’s direction, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is immediately issuing a temporary general license to allow the supply of Russian diesel to the global market.

Went to see #AvengersEndgameEncore because I hadn’t watched the original movie in a cinema and my son hadn’t seen it at all. Still a great movie but the extra post credit sequences really aren’t worth it and make it a worse not better movie

I hate when russian attacks are called “retaliation.” russia invaded our country and committed countless war crimes. An aggressor does not get to “retaliate” against its victim for fighting back.

Burnham says “I have supported all the Labour leaders in my lifetime.” Pretty demonstrably untrue given events of the last year

I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider.

Financial anxiety is real. Now imagine living with an illness that’s only going to get worse and you rely on financial support to live. Yet you’re still being asked to prove how ill you are, again and again. This is why we need a more compassionate social security system.

This is what the largest nurses’ strike in Massachusetts history looks like. Our @BrighamWomens nurses save lives every day — they deserve a fair contract that reflects the powerfully important contributions they make.

Today begins the largest healthcare worker strike in Massachusetts history. The MGB Home Care clinicians are asking for what every healthcare worker deserves: safety, support, and competitive wages. To the nurses and home care clinicians of the Sixth: I’ll be with you on the picket lines as you fight for a fair deal. The @MassNurses has my back, and I have theirs. Nurses show up for us every day — it’s time we show up for them.

There’s a new German compound word that means something like “surprising sadness” being minted as we speak.
