THIS MADNESS HAS TO STOP. Thank you @peta for coming with us to Skid Row and spotlighting this insanity.
Jun 1
Dogs on Skid Row are being bred in violation of spay & neuter laws, traded for drugs, physically abused, and denied the care they need and deserve. We teamed up with @SWOTNonprofit, @JesseKove, @NathantheCL, @TheRealChokachi, & @joey_tuccio to show what they're living through is unacceptable. Please urge the @MayorOfLA to enforce the law and help these dogs immediately!

Sydney may not realize it yet… but this moment right here is bigger than she thinks. Standing next to someone she just helped, there’s no spotlight, no crowd, no big announcement, just a quiet moment that says, “I showed up for someone today.” And sometimes, those are the moments that matter the most. The ones that don’t make noise, but make a real difference. Years from now, she may not remember every lawn she mowed… but she’ll remember how it felt to be needed, to help, and to know she made someone’s day just a little easier. And that right there… that’s something that stays with you for life.

Industrial krill trawlers are ripping 620 000 tonnes of krill from the Southern Ocean in record time. We have to stop them. #OperationKrillWars 💪

If whoever runs the SFO airport authority became the Governor-General of San Francisco, it’d be a top 5 city.

Simple, we need a moratorium on trawling for Krill just as there is a moratorium on Whaling. Why can't this be done?
Chinese fishing vessel in Antarctic scooping up krill, right next to whales and penguins These ships track where the animals go to feed & take their food. The ship is Shi Dao, the same fishing vessel that was caught dumping oil into Fijian waters at a shipyard a few years ago.

🚨Walking my dog today during this SF heat wave, I ran into a man I see often who’s clearly struggling. His dog—desperate and overheated—started drinking my dog’s pee because he was so thirsty. I ran inside for water and he chugged three bottles. That should never happen. Where are the outreach teams right now? Where are the basic services during extreme heat? We hand out supplies for harm reduction, pipes, foil and straws—but where is the water when it’s this hot? This isn’t just about people. Animals are suffering too.

WE DID IT! The 8 horses we all fought to save from WSU’s killing lab will be spared — the terminal surgical lab is CANCELLED! 🎉 Every call & email saved these lives! ❤️ We're now working on moving these horses to a sanctuary. We'll share info as soon as we have it ✨

People who don’t understand that the outdoor recreation industry generates $1.3 TRILLION in annual revenue in the US alone are not financially literate. Or perhaps literate at all.
Burgum suggests that Americans who want to protect public lands are not "financially literate"

How did Britain, a decent farming nation who treats animals with respect, ever let even one lamb be slaughtered with no pre-stun in the name of Mohammad? 3 million lambs were slaughtered in this merciless medieval way in 2024, it has to stop, right now.

JUST IN: @peta has sent a letter to @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom urging immediate state action over what it calls a “companion animal crisis” on Skid Row. The group alleges widespread abuse, illegal breeding, and neglect… claiming @MayorOfLA Karen Bass’s administration has failed to respond.

🚨 BREAKING. John Fetterman says he stood up during President Trump’s State of the Union for Iryna Zarutska and Erika Kirk. He said, “Even Erika Kirk. Can’t we just be more kind to a WIDOW? How can’t we acknowledge that?” He also made it clear he clapped for: The family who lost the Ukrainian girl. The Venezuelan political prisoner. The veterans honored that night. And he added something that shouldn’t even be controversial: “I’ll always clap for things I agree with, like striking the Iranian sites. And if I don’t agree, I certainly won’t yell, scream and disrupt the whole thing.” That’s not partisan. That’s basic decency. You can disagree on policy. You can vote no. You can argue your case. But honoring victims, widows and veterans shouldn’t be a political stunt. Sometimes acting like a normal, respectful American really is that simple. 🇺🇸💯

Shout out to this New Yorker for calling out Private Equity for causing the housing crisis and spike in homelessness. The reporter tried to deflect, but he was locked in on letting the public know that “hedge funds should not own residential properties.”

Le formidable message de l'acteur @MarkRuffalo demandant la fin de l'abattage des chiens errants au Maroc, en amont de la Coupe du monde de football de 2030. "Tuer des millions de chiens pour préparer un événement sportif mondial n'est pas un progrès, c'est une faute morale. La Coupe du Monde devrait unir le monde, et non reposer sur des souffrances endurées à huis clos. Des solutions humaines existent, et choisir la compassion plutôt que la violence est une responsabilité que nous partageons tous." @iawpcoalition #Love.
