Matilda the koala predicts Australia to beat England in World Cup semi-final

A koala named Matilda has predicted that Australia will beat England in Wednesday's Women's World Cup semi-final in Sydney. Matilda made her unscientific decision at a wildlife sanctuary on Australia's Gold Coast. She was correct in predicting that Australia would beat France earlier in the competition.

PSA: #BirdSite security

So, if you had 2-factor authentication on the birdsite set up through text messages, they've made that a feature you have to pay for—which means 2-factor authentication gets turned off. Mine was.

There are still options that do NOT require payment. At least for now. And having extra security over there seems, IDK, kind of a good idea?

I saw a headline
featuring a quote that stated
“everyone
is kind of tired
and has given up”
and while I cannot deny
that everyone is tired
much more than “kind of tired”
that most people
have given up
does not mean
that everyone has.
@everywhereist Saw this in Portland and thought you needed to, as well.
We should name mass shootings the way we do hurricanes but after Republicans who accept payments from the NRA.

RT @RepBowman
Everyone needs to be paying attention to what's happening in Tennessee 🚨

3 lawmakers are about to be illegally ousted for joining the 10,000 kids protesting at the state capitol.

Stop following Trump's location and focus on protecting our democracy from fascism everywhere. https://twitter.com/brotherjones_/status/1643063537244291076

Rep. Justin Jones on Twitter

“Tonight as Tennessee House Republicans push forward to schedule vote on our expulsion, Speaker Sexton orders the gallery cleared as crowd chants “fascists.” Media forced out at as well. Then, Rep. Lafferty (R-Knox) pushes me and grabs my phone. This is a sad day for Tennessee.”

I enjoy rooting for the underdog as much as anyone, but it’s especially fun when they’re the OWLS. 🏀🦉

One would think, watching Miller’s NCAA tourney ad, that someone on staff is in the business of TASTING STICKY FLOORS.

Srsly, who the hell WROTE that ad? 🤦🏻‍♀️

Don't allow anyone to gaslight you. The American Library Association (where I work, by the way) documented 1,269 demands to censor library books and resources in 2022, the HIGHEST NUMBER of attempted book bans since ALA began compiling data about censorship in libraries more than 20 years ago.

We must not remain silent as a tiny minority of loudmouths attempts to police our #libraries, #schools, and public institutions. https://uniteagainstbookbans.org/.
