The United Nations’ World Food Program says more than 40 million people in West and Central Africa are struggling to feed themselves, with that number set to explode to 52 million next year, affecting nearly 1 in 10 people in the region. @AssociatedPress has more.

@yoli_bruja bueno, eso también, pero no lo digo porque a pesar de que estoy en una instancia que dicen que no modera, me moderaron un mensaje menos explícito.

Obviously, I knew the new administration would be a shitshow back on Nov 6 before the polls even closed. That is precisely why my wife & I have tried to speed run the major projects we had planned for 2025 before Jan 20. But with each day's news, I see the now-inevitable collapse speeding up exponentially.
Local Agency mastodon (AP)
the collapse when it comes will be harder than any of us expect.

I'm afraid.
Sean Kleefeld mastodon (AP)
@laprice Yeah, I've read up on the USSR's collapse specifically to see what happens to 'regular' folks and it was NOT pretty. The poverty rate skyrocketed from 1.5% in 1991 to 49% in 1993. Life expectancy dropped from 64 to 57. Alcohol-related deaths rose 60% and deaths from diseases went up 100%. Thousands upon thousands died as direct result of USSR's collapse. I expect we'll see similar effects in the US; we should all be very scared.

Two cats lay on a soft brown sofa spread with a multicoloured knitted blanket and a soft grey fleecy blanket. The cat on the left is Bob, a huge silver main coon beauty with a lovely face and closed eyes. Bob is extremely well endowed with floof. On the right is Barney the handsome ginger and white senior cat, who lays facing bob, with his front left paw outstretched. Bob's front right paw is outstretched too, and the ends of their paws are touching! Both cats are very sleepy, and look extremely contented.

A very small increase in cases of severe respiratory illness (from widespread flu, for example), overwhelms the US hospital system in days. For example, if we lose more ground on vaccination rates, typical flu seasons will see many more elderly and ill patients winding up in the ICU with a preventable disease. That will mean fewer beds and staff for cancer surgeries, trauma patients, people with heart attacks and strokes, etc..

UPDATE - FUNDRAISING GOAL HAS BEEN REACHED!!

*Updates are posted on this mutual aid thread*

Plea for #emergency #MutualAid to help get our car fixed & 2 extra nights accommodation while we wait for repairs to be done.

Parts/services cost from Miles Automotive in Parksville is $2161.47 - after taxes to repair.

The front brakes & rotors blew, battery was weak & it died too. I'm upset because I spent $1800 only 3 weeks ago for full checkup/tuneup & got oil/fluids changed too, in Victoria & was told the car was all good except that battery is old & needs to be replaced. Nothing about the brakes.
I had saved up for those recent car mechanic services. I only have enough in bank account for mortgage & hydro payments, municipal water bill & medications for me & Mom.

The suite owners here are willing to let us stay 2 more nights with no taxes at reduced rate due to car breakdown emergency - $90/night.

Mom & I would really appreciate any financial assistance right now to help pay for costs above & help us get ourselves & car back home.
I have enough cash on hand to pay for our foods & the pricey taxi fare back to mechanics on Monday morning.

I can accept e-transfers if you're with Canadian banks:

If you live in Colorado and haven’t had a flu shot in the last 6 months, it isn’t too late to get one. Influenza A is running rampant, causing a really bad cold that has a bonus nausea/vomiting/diarrhea feature. If you get the shot, you’re less likely to have symptoms or have severe symptoms. Don’t be the person who tells me “No, I guess I should have…” when I see you in the ER for flu and ask if you got your shot*.

*I’ll treat ya the same either way. It’s a learning opportunity 🤪.

vaya, hoy escuché, bueno, no terminé de hacerlo, la verdad,una demo grabada sobre las dichosas gafas de Meta por una chica argentina que cada vez que aparecía un aparato que quería se dedicaba a dar pena y recolectaba el dinero para comprarlo. Me pregunté si habría hecho lo mismo para comprarse las metagafas. No lo sé porque desde que no sigo twitter no he vuelto a saber de ella.

Known as flow formations, these channels could be etched on bodies that would seem inhospitable to liquid because they are exposed to the extreme vacuum conditions of space. Pocked with craters, the surfaces of many celestial bodies in our solar system provide clear evidence of a 4.6-billion-year battering by meteoroids and other space debris. But […]

Where to Watch New Year’s Eve Celebrations From Around the World

The image shows a vibrant fireworks display over a canal in Amsterdam, Netherlands. In the foreground, there are houseboats and the calm waters of the canal reflecting the colorful lights of the fireworks. The background is filled with the stunning spectacle of fireworks exploding in the night sky, with the city's buildings and trees lining the canal visible amidst the bursts of light. The city lights illuminate the buildings along the canal, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere against the dark night sky.
Links to live streams for various cities around the world. Why celebrate once when you can celebrate on the hour all day long!

Not all are pointing directly at the celebrations though, e.g. Cape Town’s cam is pointing towards the mountain, and not towards the Waterfront where the fireworks are going off. So for Cape Town maybe try this one at https://www.earthtv.com/en/webcam/cape-town-table-mountain/live-stream or this one further away especially for the fireworks at https://www.capetown-webcam.com/category/uncategorized/feed.

@Christoph S Raus ins Mystische. Ich bin mir über Ihr Geburtsdatum nicht sicher. Ich gehe jedoch davon aus, dass Sie im chinesischen Jahr der Metallziege geboren wurden. Metall ist ein anderes Wort für „Gold“. Das bedeutet, dass Sie stets gut mit Geld, Finanzen und Besitztümern umgehen.
Du magst Metal-Musik.
Der Mond stand im Sternzeichen Steinbock. Das mit dem Steinbock assoziierte Tier ist die Ziege oder „Seeziege“.
Dein Geistestier ist die Ziege.
Ich würde sagen, Sie hatten eine Affinität zu The Goat/Sheep
seit du ein Kind warst, mit deiner Vorliebe für Shaun, die Ziege/das Schaf
Es gibt auch eine starke Vorliebe für den Hund, dessen Vorfahr der Wolf war.

The new budget bill proposed by Speaker Johnson cuts over $100 million for pediatric cancer research.

Yup. Making government efficient by cutting funding to research curing cancer in children. Bravo.

If they truly destroy things this badly, it'll have global effects.

A lot of cures start from NIH research, and it's not at all clear that gap will get filled in by any other government.
