On Friday, the Georgia EPD granted permits to Twin Pines to strip-mine three miles from Okefenokee Swamp. This will be a "demonstration mine" of 600 acres digging out titanium dioxide, staurolite, and zircon. I cannot state how disappointed I am in my own state's environmental department to approve something so damaging to our natural wetland. The Okefenokee is the largest blackwater swamp in North America and one of the most endangered rivers in America. Hopefully, John Ossoff will block it again as he did back in 2022.
If you are looking for ways to help go ahead and check out 100miles.org and Georgia River Network.

There's nothing more relaxing than turning off your brain and mining until your inventory is full of ores and random shit

"Cobalt Red": Smartphones & Electric Cars Rely on Toxic Mineral Mined in Congo
The Democratic Republic of the Congo produces nearly three-quarters of the world's cobalt, an essential component in rechargeable batteries powering laptops, smartphones and electric vehicles. 
But those who dig up the valuable mineral often work in horrific and dangerous conditions, says Siddharth Kara, an international expert on modern-day slavery and author of _Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives_. 
In an in-depth interview, he says the major technology companies that rely on this cobalt from DRC to make their products are turning a blind eye to the human toll and falsely claiming their supply chains are free from abuse, including widespread child labor.
 "The public health catastrophe on top of the human rights violence on top of the environmental destruction is unlike anything we've ever seen in the modern context," says Kara. "The fact that it is linked to companies worth trillions and that our lives depend on this enormous violence has to be dealt with."

I made a visual representation of how i mine in minecraft. I will also describe how i do it under the image.
Tumblr media
I staircase down to Y -54 (best level for diamond), then dig out a 11x11 room (everything is 2 blocks high, just enough to stand in), i always place a chest, furnace, and crafting table in the room, and if im in a multiplayer game i place a bed as to not annoy people when they cant skip to day T-T
I then pick a side and dig a 100 block tunnel off of the 11x11 room. I then dig 3 blocks along (careful not to dig away from the room or you'll get very lost), and dig back to the room (leaving a 1x100 line of blocks in between). I then skip one block once im back in the room, and dig another 1x100 tunnel. Repeat until there is no space left to tunnel off the room.
It takes a looooong time to dig enough tunnels that you need a new space. Honestly ive never finished a whole mine because i get all the resources i need fairly quickly!
This method got me 12 diamonds in under 10 minutes the last time i mined, and regularly gets me between 5-10 diamonds in under 10 minutes.
Remember to bring a looooottttt of torches, you'll need 'em. Also bring down some wood and coal because you'll want to smelt as you go and will likely be crafting new pickaxes with some of what you gather!
Hope this helps you! Idk if this is a common method but i came up with it from a bunch of different techniques mashed together that i found on reddit. Its worked wonders for me and i highly recommend!!!

!!Help Ahed and his family get through this war in Gaza!!!URGENT!!!
Tumblr media
"I am Ahed Alanqar. I am 33 years old. I am married to Maisoon Alanqar . We have three children: Fatima (9 years old), Iman (6 years old), and Nour (1 year old). We faced all the challenges imposed by the war regime in Gaza, but now we need your help to escape from... This tragedy, Fatima Iman and Nour are the pulse of my heart and the light of my life.
Tumblr media
Since the beginning of the last war in Gaza, my home has been partially destroyed, forcing us to move. We had to move more than ten times to find safety. During this harrowing journey, we faced extreme hunger and malnutrition that almost claimed the lives of me and my children. In addition, we have been exposed to many serious infectious diseases and epidemics.
Unbearable hardships
I have to travel long distances just to get water, and stand in line for hours to get food. My mental health and the health of my children deteriorated due to the war. My children’s education was interrupted and they suffered from catastrophic hunger that almost claimed their lives. After: This is our house, built with our sweat and effort, and it was partially destroyed.
Tumblr media
The right to a peaceful life
My children deserve to live a peaceful life free of fear and anxiety. My dream is for your help to support my family and escape this genocide. Your help means the world to me and my children.
The cost of arranging travel for an adult outside Gaza currently ranges between $5,000 and $7,000, and $2,500 per child.
How can you help
Your donations can be a beacon of hope for us. Every dollar can help save my children's lives and give them a chance to live in peace. Your prayers for us to overcome this ordeal and lift the siege are greatly needed"

Get Hosed!
An AI-penned script meant to be shot without any paid actors on camera. It's supposed to be a sensationalized documentary about water rights usage and water parks, but ends up as an indictment of capitalism with water parks as a microcosm, cobbled together from ads and news reports, talking about strip mining Splash Mountain, and selling off water rights/dumping rights in the Lazy River.

The lamb keeps a braid as a way to honor the death of those who couldn't make it. Usually they have time to braid it but they take long because they're bad at it. They've got a sermon in 5. Favours for favours. Ps: Narinder isn't hiding his eyes, not exactly. But he is hiding something.
