Mortality
That supposed inevitability that
We are asked to accept as canon
With our purposes served we
Are to be discarded.

But are we so meaningless
Fibers in the cosmic tapestry
Forgotten soon after last breath
Footnotes in other lives
Half-remembered moments?

No.
We are so much more.

Musk’s Purges Suddenly Take a Horrific Turn—and Wreck an Ugly MAGA Lie

We can now be depressingly confident that their mass cuts are killing people.

"RUTF is widely hailed as an extraordinary innovation in feeding #children facing #starvation & #death.

...the cancellation of Mana’s latest contracts will mean that around 300,000 #kids... don’t get aid packets that #Congress intended for them. But we, too, are the losers"

Text from article: The details of the canceled Mana contracts illustrate the point. RUTF, the sweet nutritional peanut paste that Mana manufactures, is safe for ingestion by children who are suffering acute nutritional deprivation or are on the verge of starving to death. It comes in foil packets that don’t need refrigeration, making it easy to distribute in regions suffering extreme deprivation. RUTF is widely hailed as an extraordinary innovation in feeding children facing starvation and death. According to Moore, the cancellation of Mana’s latest contracts will mean that around 300,000 kids, mostly in Africa, don’t get aid packets that Congress intended for them. But we, too, are the losers: This paste is manufactured by American workers, and made of peanuts and dairy grown by American farmers, in a spreading of American bounty and goodwill that has long had bipartisan support. Now it’s piled up in a warehouse in Savannah, unshipped and uneaten. All of this lays waste to the spin that Trumpworld has employed to defend the dismantling of USAID. For instance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has claimed all along that “lifesaving humanitarian assistance” will be spared. By any reasonable standard, many of the contracts that have just been canceled qualify as just that.
