• Why is mainstream media coverage of France so limited?

• Biden calls 'emergency' meeting after missile hits Poland

  Aight so the general idea here is it's not absolutely certain that Russia shot it and they're definitely denying it.

• Boris Johnson calls for calm after a fiery fourth night of violence in Northern Ireland

  True. I visit news.sky.com and bbc.com/news front page daily and I only found about it yesterday. Source: about 3 years ago

  Not completely on topic, but I wanted to share that I just wrote letters via Vote Forward (and had a letter writing party) for this election, if anyone wants to join in from not-in-Ohio! Source: 11 months ago

• We all know that voting correctly is the only way we’ll regain our reproductive and sexual freedom. I’m trying to increase voter turn out and would like some input. If you have never volunteered for a political issue or campaign, I’d love to know why. No judgement, I’m just looking for info.

  Thanks for your reply. Just so you know, being a voting advocate for friends and family is an incredibly effective way to get out the vote. Every year, I contact all my peeps and make sure their registration and address are correct, and they know when, where and how to vote, so keep up the good work!
