I can’t overstate how relieved I am with the election results in France.
It’s still very worrying, the far right is growing in terms of influence, but at least it’s still widely considered as the most dangerous option by everyone else, and it’s still being effectively blocked.

The Biden administration on March 13 approved the massive Willow oil drilling project in Alaska in the federally owned National Petroleum Reserve. This is a statement from actor and activist Mark Ruffalo.
