We can end the pandemic by investing in infrastructure to clean indoor air and developing vaccines that are more effective at reducing #COVID spread. In the meantime, masks are one of the most effective tools we have to make society accessible to everyone. Use them!

@antimagaglitterbomb I’m sick of the media dragging the Biden issue our gleefully while they buried every trump story within a week

Why hasn’t the FBI searched the rest of Trump’s properties and homes?

Everything #DeSantis does is a performance for a racist far-right audience that he KNOWS live in his state. #Florida had the most #January6th insurrectionists. His Black history ban for Black history month just shows us that #GOP racist dog whistles are now blow-horns hooked up to amplifiers. #blackmastodon #BlackHistory #RonDeSantis #JAN6 #february

The Russians are not human, as usual they are creating their own stories. We do not have any weapons to take down the S300. We sounded the alarm after the explosions occurred.

A rocket launched by Russian struck a residential building in Kramatorsk, completely destroying it and potentially trapping people under the rubble. At least two people were killed and seven were injured in the incident.

At 21:45, Russian troops launched an Iskander-K missile at the residential sector of the city, resulting in the destruction of one building and damage to at least 8 others.

An extensive search and rescue operation is currently underway, with 11 investigative teams, explosives experts, dog handlers, paramedics, patrol police and other units on the scene. Law enforcement officers are evacuating people to a nearby school, which has been set up as a shelter.
Reports indicate that three people have died and twenty have been injured after a rocket struck a residential area of Kramatorsk. Eight buildings have been damaged, with one of them being completely destroyed, and it is possible that people are trapped beneath the debris.

So apparently McCarthy has now moved from wanting to gut a a quarter of federal spending to not increasing federal spending! And Biden didn't have to say anything! What a genius negotiator! This whole thing is a farce and the press takes it seriously.

Starting February 1, citizens who receive housing subsidies in Ukraine will no longer be able to pay for their utility bills with cash. The funds will be credited to the subsidy recipient's bank account, or if they do not have one, to Oschadbank. The recipient will then need to withdraw the money and open a personal bank account in order to transfer the money to the utility companies. Starting February 2023, Oschadbank will no longer transfer money to utility providers, meaning that citizens will have to withdraw the funds and pay for housing and communal services directly to the utility companies and organizations. Pensioners will still receive their subsidies through Ukrposhta offices on the day of pension payment.
