Hi folks,

First, thank you again for your incredible support — together, we gathered around 1.45 million signatures before the July 31st deadline. Verification is now underway, and early reports from several countries show around 97% of signatures being valid — excellent news that puts us in a very strong position going forward.

  1. Where we are now Your signatures are being checked by national authorities, a process that will take about three months. Once complete, we will personally deliver the petition to the European Commission. That moment will mark the start of the legislative phase — where the Commission and Parliament must decide how to respond.

  2. The next phase We are preparing to ensure our initiative cannot be ignored. This means: • Legislative outreach to Members of Parliament and the Commission. • Countering misinformation and industry lobbying. Strengthening our community structures to support this next stage. Some of this work must remain behind the scenes for now — past attempts to undermine the initiative have shown us the risks of being too open. But rest assured: important groundwork is being laid.

  3. Our team & community Some long-time contributors have stepped back after years of effort (Ross)— we thank them deeply. At the same time, new people are joining and taking on responsibilities. This transition takes time, but it is already bearing fruit.

  4. Moving forward We want to keep you engaged and involved. In the weeks ahead, expect more frequent updates through our media channels and partner creators.

Apparently MAGAts are compiling a list of people they believe were celebrating or glorifying Charlie Kirk’s death yesterday. Stay safe!

If Donald Trump was actually serious about fighting crime in cities like Chicago, he, along with his congressional Republicans, would not be cutting over $800 million in public safety and crime prevention grants nationally, including cutting $158 million in funding to Illinois for violence prevention programs that deploy trained outreach workers to deescalate conflict on our streets. Cutting $71 million in law enforcement grants to Illinois, direct money for police departments through programs like Project Safe Neighborhoods, the state and local Antiterrorism Training Program, and the Rural Violent Crime Reduction Initiative, cutting $137 million in child protection measures in Illinois that protect our kids against abuse and neglect.

Trump is defunding the police.


Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say, "Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city?" Instead, I say, "Mr. President, do not come to Chicago."

You are neither wanted here nor needed here. Your remarks about this effort over the last several weeks have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties and are not fit for the auspicious office that you occupy.

Oh sure, when the cat walks into a house and wants to live there, they're all "omg it's so cute" and "let's go buy it food and a bed", but when I do it, they're all "who the hell are you?" and "leave or I'm calling the cops" :(

I liked the story about the "very high" runes and so I found a source. Apparently, the writing was "Tholfir Kolbeinsson carved these runes high up".

The article title is a little misleading - the tadpoles of this frog don't poop because they're only in a small amount of water and they'd quickly foul it if they pooped frequently like other animals. Instead, they wait until they start to become frogs, then they safely poop outside of their spawning pools.

some shrikes are also known as butcherbirds because of the habit, particularly of males, of impaling prey onto plant spines within their territories. These larders have multiple functions, attracting females and serving as food stores.
