the collected-tweet genre of article is usually disappointing but this one cracked me up: Londoners troll New York Times with deluge of ‘petty crimes’
beautiful: actual good environmental news
“It’s amazing … with limited budgets and widespread poverty, [Native American tribes] are the leader in wildlife restoration when compared to the state wildlife agency”
